Initially, I did not think that the Apple iPhone 5 looked like that much of an improvement from my current phone (which was simply a lower version of the iPhone). However, upon purchasing the product with my upgrade, I found that Apple 's newest smartphone was well worth my money.

It's not like Apple has reinvented the wheel completely with the new iPhone. The sophistication and elegance that embodies the device is every bit as evident as the previous additions. But the overall finesse has definitely been taken up a notch or two with the slightly new design.

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.

Bigger; better screen; Very elegantly built phone; Incredibly light and thin; Fast new custom-designed CPU

New Maps app needs a lot of work; Letterboxed third-party apps

If you're an iPhone user, you'll want to move on up to what is surely the classiest handset from Apple yet. Though the 4S still has lots to offer, thanks to the arrival of iOS 6, the iPhone 5 hardware is nevertheless spectacular and deeply seductive.

Apple iPhone 5 16GB - White Look & Feel I have the white iPhone 5 and I love how sleek and simplistic it looks. It is impressively thin and light, when you compare this to the iPhone 4 there is a big difference.

variety of apps; great look and feel; easy to operate

battery life; easily scratched; different sync/charger cable to previous apple products

After faithfully sticking with my iPhone 4 for 2 years, I definitely knew that I was an apple convert. I loved my iPods and really thought long and hard about whether I should get an iPhone, I just thought that an iPod touch was just basically an iPhone that didn't text or call, but I was pleasantly...

great camera; fantastic improvement for the iPhone

wifi is very problematic

i am fed up with apple having almost the same design and i also hate the lightning cable, yes it is digital but there is no way your going to convince any body in the world that the cable is a good thing. people just buy this just to show off.

sleek design; a6 processor has good frame rate consistancy.appstore has immproved for io6 and bigger screen

only 4 inches compared to top smartphones; ageing ios ui and scratches are easily made and price

i was due an upgrade and after trying the blackberry Z10 and samsung galaxy S3 (which are both total rubbish). I fought I would finally see what the big fuss is about iphones! And honestly i have to say Iphones are the best! do NOT save abit of money and go for the BB or samsung!

I've had all the iPhones except the 4s. Went from a 4 to a samsung s2 then to the s3. Got a 64 gig for the right price and all I can say is wow, really missed the smoothness of them. IOS is a little dated compared to android but it is less clunky and laggy.

Iphone5....faster, better camera, 1/2 inch larger screen...great for making calls, texting, and browsing. Nothing else to it than iphone1, iphone2g, iphone 3g, iphone 3gs, iphone 4, iphone 4s except for those 3 major things.
