iPhone 5
The iPhone 5 is as ever a thoroughly enjoyable and capable smartphone. It's easy and fun to use and it's secure and stable. The latest generation model clearly gives users what they wanted (look how many have sold): LTE 4G and a larger display.
Pros:
- Bigger dispay
- fast LTE 4G
- gorgeous design and smooth experience
Cons:
- Feature evolution too slow for some
- UI still largely unchanged

Apple iPhone 5 review
There's been a lot of ink spilled over the notion that the iPhone 5 somehow isn't "revolutionary" or "radical." It isn't. It's familiar, but better. That familiarity is one of the iPhone's strengths, not a weakness.
Pros:
- Bigger
- better screen
- Very elegantly built phone
- Incredibly light and thin
- Fast new custom-designed CPU
Cons:
- New Maps app needs a lot of work
- Letterboxed third-party apps

Review: Apple iPhone 5
When we review a product, we're usually given a sample by the manufacturer that's been hand-picked just for us to test. The hardware has been examined for defects, every feature has been fully vetted and scrutinized, and the software has been triple-checked.
Pros:
- Elongated display provides easy access to more apps, and makes for pleasant, un-letterboxed widescreen viewing
- Lots of iPhone 5-ready apps to choose from already
- Apple-engineered A6 processor is wicked-fast.
Cons:
- Anodized aluminum rear plate, particularly in black, has a reported propensity for scratches
- Video recording picks up a surprising amount of audio interference, even in a quiet room
- Updates, while all worthwhile and technologically impressive, won't make your jaw drop with awe

Apple iPhone 5 Review
Most people anticipated seeing the iPhone 5 surface last year but, of course, Cupertino had different plan, instead opting to beef up the iPhone 4's internal hardware and leave its chassis virtually untouched.
Pros:
- Super fast
- larger display
- thinner body
- solid battery life
- LTE
- improved camera
Cons:
- Some apps still need to be updated for the larger screen
- if you've invested in iPhone accessories you'll need a $30 Lightning adapter to use them
- Apple Maps feels half-baked -- though this is an iOS 6 feature and a Google Maps app is coming

Apple iPhone 5 Review
The Apple iPhone 5 is the best iPhone in the market, but that really isn't a surprise, is it? But then again, for a phone that costs Rs. 45,500, it better justify the expense. The iPhone 5 is an incremental update over the 4S, but the best phone incrementally improved is equal to a huge improvement.
Pros:
- Blazing fast performance
- Much improved display
- Widescreen aspect ratio brilliant for multimedia
- Lighter than the iPhone 4S
- Excellent build quality
- Camera is improved over the 4S
- Doesn't heat up like the 4S
- Surprisingly good battery life
Cons:
- Costs a lot of money
- Nano SIM is a pain to procure
- The OS just looks plain dated
- Apple has messed up the Maps
- big time

iPhone 5 review
The iPhone 5 is more than just Apple's latest high-end smartphone. In a world of huge slabs of phone the iPhone's thin profile makes it different to the Galaxy S4 , Sony Xperia Z , HTC One , BlackBerry Z10 , Nokia Lumia 925 and the rest of the high-end phone lineup.
