Apple iPhone 5 (16GB/32GB/64GB)
As we noted early in this review, it's now a truism that the latest iPhone is the best ever-a claim that Apple has also made with every generation of iPods, but not always achieved.
Pros:
- Apple's fastest and most capable iPhone yet
- The first iPhone to include a 4" screen, LTE cellular support, and two truly impressive cameras
- Improved screen and camera color accuracy, plus dramatically improved low light camera performance.
Cons:
- Battery performance too often falls below Apple's best case estimates, particularly for cellular calling and data. LTE service remains inconsistent between neighborhoods, cities, and countries, with widely varying data speeds and availability
- some users will see no cellular speed improvements over...

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 Review
The iPhone 5 offers a thoroughly pleasant redesign with a taller display and a thinner, lighter frame. Fast and packing a great camera, the hardware is hard to fault, while iOS feels slick and offers loads of apps, even if Apple's new Maps software feels like a step backwards.
Pros:
- Larger screen with increased resolution
- Extremely quick
- Winning redesign makes for a thinner
- lighter phone
Cons:
- IOS 6 Maps app is a step backwards
- 4G won't work on all UK networks
- New connector means you'll need to buy an adaptor for current chargers and docks
- Very expensive

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
