Apple iPhone 5s Review

Apple iPhone 5s is a breath-taking phone released some years ago, in 2013, packed with a great 1.3 GHz Dual-Core 64 bit processor, a 4" display, and 2 cameras, an 8 MP back facing camera and a 1.2 megapixels front facing camera.

This cellphone ships with a high speed 1.3 GHz Dual-Core 64 bit processing unit, bundled in the Apple A7 system chip with only 1 GB RAM memory which is a little low comparing with this phone's impressive processor. Graphic intensive games and applications usually uses a lot of CPU cycles, so this cellphone also also has a 600 MHz PowerVR G6430 GPU to help with that calculations. A great advantage of this device is its huge 64 GB internal storage memory and whereas it doesn't count with an SD memory slot, it it is more than enough to install hundreds of applications without even thinking about how much storage is left.

This cellphone is for sale in 3 color options, black, gray and gold. Regarding its design materials, this cellphone is mainly manufactured with Aluminium, which gives it a top level finish and high resistance. Being just 0.3 inches thick,this phone is extremely slim and comfortable. It appears that Apple forgot about optimizing the weight in this 3.95 ounces phone.

This phone has two cameras, an 8 megapixels back side camera and a 1.2 mega-pixels front side camera. Its back side camera has a F2.2 aperture so it can capture awesome pictures even in poor lighting conditions. It is capable of capturing Full HD 1920x1080 videos at 30 frames per second, and HD 1280x720 slow motion videos at 120 fps (4 times slower than reality). Additionally, the camera features many great features like flash, auto-focus, digital image stabilization, fast burst mode, face detection shooting, HDR mode, time lapse video and geo tagging.

Apple designed this phone with a spectacular 4-inches display, and a resolution of 1136 x 640 , making everything look vivid and colorful. This display uses IPS LCD capacitive technology, with an incredible 500 candela/m2 brightness and can detect multi touch gestures.

The Apple iPhone 5s includes wi-fi connectivity (which it can share with other devices around, acting as a mobile hotspot), LTE 4G high performance data connection and also HSPA+ connection type, that is a slower 4G technology and the fastest 3G internet connection, supported by HSDPA, HSUPA, UMTS and EDGE technologies. The iPhone 5s uses a Nano SIM card for GSM carriers and it can connect using both CDMA and GSM networks.

The iPhone 5s also includes a handful of interesting characteristics like Bluetooth (4.0) and GPS Geolocation, and lots of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope and Compass.

The Apple iPhone 5s features a 1570 mAh medium Li-Ion non-replaceable battery that provides this phone a quite short battery life. Apple says this phone has a stand by time of 250 hs and a talk time of 10 hours. A key issue to take into consideration is that this phone's battery is non-removable so you won't be able to replace it when it starts to live shorter, having to buy a new cellphone to "solve it" or hopefully take the cellphone to an expert who can disassemble it and switch its battery.

Apple sells the iPhone 5s for $ 245, which is quite high for comparing with other similar devices. No matter whether you want this cellphone for gaming, will use it as a social cellphone, want it to take lots of photos or need a phone for work, this phone is very appropiate for you. If you buy this cellphone you also receive Lightning to USB Cable, USB Power Adapter, Documentation and Apple EarPods with Remote and Mic.
