If there was ever any lingering doubt that the two new iPhones that were released last week would sell well, then let those doubts be cleansed after Apple today announced its sales figures for the three days since the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c went on sale.
In Depth Speed Comparison of iPhone 5s vs iPhone 5 to see how much value there is on the speed and performance side, in going for the iPhone 5s over the 5.
As with any new major gadget, both of Apple's just-released smartphones have been given the teardown treatment, and resident iDevice repair manual company iFixit has once again done the honors. Both handsets, as you might imagine, have very different innards, although the iPhone 5c, which, on paper, is very similar to its predecessor, shares an almost identical interior to the iPhone 5.
Apple's product design has been an instrumental component in their market dominance for the past few years. Combine their beautiful hardware aesthetics with the ease of use of their software, and you have a recipe for selling a lot of products. Under Steve Jobs' direction, as they became the market leader, Apple rarely released a product which could have been considered to have 'questionable design'. Strangely enough, however, the new iPhone 5c came with a case that could only be described as having questionable design.
Here's a complete side by side video comparison of iPhone 5s vs iPhone 5c vs iPhone 5. This video that we have put together compares all the said phones, you can find it embedded at the end of this post.
Little over a week ago at their September media event, Apple announced the new iPhone 5s. Along with an impressive upgrade list to it's predecessor, the iPhone 5, the 5s came with a feature many people had bookmarked as too outlandish for Apple to include. This feature is, of course, biometric fingerprint scanning integration, or as Apple call it: Touch ID. The premise of this new addition is simple, make unlocking and authorizing App Store & iTunes purchases as quick and easy as possible, which will result in a better experience for users. I happened to purchase the iPhone 5s earlier this morning, and I can honestly say I'm not disappointed at all with Touch ID.
Both iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c are now on sale in 11 countries worldwide. The launch of the more expensive and more in demand flagship iPhone 5s is significant for a myriad of reasons, what with it being the first smartphone with a fingerprint sensor and a 64-bit processor. The new device is also the very first iPhone to ship in three colors, and with a budget iPhone 5c also on the table, many are headed to retail stores without having made up their minds about which one to pick up. Here, we'll be taking a look at what's on offer, and help you to decide which iPhone model is the best fit for you.
Download links for the very latest iOS 7.0.1 update have gone live for the iPhone 5s and the iPhone 5c, fixing two bugs in Apple’s latest operating system for mobile devices.
Apple's new iPhone launches always prompt those die-hard fans into camping and queuing for ungodly periods of time outside those iconic retail stores, and with the iPhone 5s being touted by many as the most significant such launch for many a year, it's unsurprising that queuing has been running pretty much all week. What's more, one London-based student - first in line to grab the new device at the Regent Street branch - is actually looking to sell his spot in line for up to £1000.
A smartphone’s camera is guaranteed to be upgraded every year. Apple spent a large amount of time discussing the improved camera module on the iPhone 5s as part of last week's dedicated event, clearly an indication that they are extremely proud of its capabilities. Almost immediately after that event, the Cupertino company announced that fashion giant Burberry would be using an iPhone 5s to capture all of the glitz and glamour of their London fashion show, a video which has now been made available by the fashion house.
