The iPhone 5 is great and all for the average businessman or high-end job holder, but my biggest worry is the 4G-LTE. It may be RIDICULOUSLY fast right now, but that's because not too many people are using it; give it a year or so, and the 4G-LTE hype will die down and carriers will soon have to...

picture quality; easy to use; helps organize my tasks easily

not too durable

I have experienced this phone previously to owning my current phone (Samsung galaxy s4). Personally I think the galaxy is 1000x's better than the Iphone, and because of it I will never change back.

Feels good in the hand; Fast and easy to use UI

Poor build quality; OS is very limited; Not many cool features; Overheats easily; Sudden glitches; Expensive for what you get

The iPhone 5 surpasses its predecessors in virtually every aspect, and it is without a doubt the best offering from Apple so far. Despite the oversight with regards to the maps, it isn't quite the off-putting flaw that makes the iPhone 5 any less of a beast (especially since it can be rectified).

+ A speedier and smoother experience; + Improved battery life

- Horrible built-in mapping solution; - Lack of innovative features on the OS

Bought this for my wife but found that she would have to have arms like a Russian shot putter to take up the slack in the strap even on the smallest adjustment, shame as it looks really good quality.

Comfortable; takes an iPhone5 with a slim case fitted; Could do with somewhere to hold excess headphone cable

Though Apple iPhone 5 created a lot of buzz and rumors before the launch, it has managed to acquire a name for itself in the market. Touted as the most desired smartphone available in the market (as statistics tell us), iPhone 5 comes with a bigger screen size and includes 4G LTE data speed,...

Longer and larger screen; Supports 4G network; Good quality front-facing camera; Slim and feather light; Ultra-fast wireless

High price; Map seems to be a disaster; No NFC

It's an odd sensation, but it actually detracts from the experience when you first pick it up. We've praised the weighty feel of the iPhone in the past, lending it a premium feel in the face of toy-like phones.

Great design; Larger screen; Average battery life; Quality camera

Expensive; Poor maps; Ageing OS

Upgrading from the iPhone 4 to iPhone 5 delivers a clear increase in image quality. Not only this but it is quicker in use, for example, HDR pictures are rendered much quicker. We recommend you use the HDR mode all the time as it generally produced much better results.

Large number of apps available; Fantastic panoramas; HDR mode delivers good results; Size and weight; Geotagging; LCD screen; White balance performance; Easy to share pictures

Expensive; No image stabilisation; LED flash not great; Very few camera settings available

People just have a wrong impression about apple products, plz dont make up your mind before using one. And about the price, even samsung, sony, htc flagship devices are launched at no less then 40k , so please dont complain.

Simple UI; Very good camera; Very handy; Superb build; Smooth OS

No card slot; Ull dislike it anyway if you have made up your mind

The Apple iPhone 5 smartphone underwent the scrutiny of two reviewers during our in-depth test. The verdict was pretty much unanimous. Even though the device may divide opinions on the web, it ultimately remains a smartphone with both strengths and weaknesses.

High quality auminum body; Appealing design; Thickness and overall weight; Slim Lightning Connector; iOS 6: fast (improved) operatin system; Up-to-date wireless technology; Good performance of the integrated cameras; Applications and games performance; User experience and touch interface; 4 inch...

Battery and memory fixed; Older cables and docks require adapter; Maps software full of errors; LTE only available with T-Mobile; Only 12 months manufacturer warranty; EarPods (Headset) mediocre; Hefty price tag; starting at 679 Euros; We might lament the absence of a killer feature or NFC; but...
