The editors didn't like
No change in design from iPhone 4
No 4G
Costly
No flash integration
Outdated contacts menu
The display is too small for comfortable use
Glass on the front and back has proven to be fragile in the past
Relatively expensive at $199.99 to $399.99 with a two year agreement.
Upgrades (other than camera) really don't feel vastly improved from iPhone 4
Battery life issue
Image quality still not on par with even entry-level dedicated digital cameras
Noisier than digicams
Especially at higher ISOs (but you already knew that)
Still no user control over shutter speed
ISO sensitivity
Metering mode
Exposure compensatio...

Display relatively small
Sluggish 3G speeds
Poor social-networking integration
On-screen keyboard is quite small
No 4G. Poor social-networking integration
Very expensive. Not available in several major Cricket cities
Can't remove battery or casing
Still no 4G
Instruction manual is less informative that we'd like
Siri only goes so far
No thirdparty apps
Not enough voice feedback
Call quality just soso
Might benefit from a larger screen
3G stops at 14.4Mbps
No real 4G yet
Design still somewhat fragile
Video a bit prone to CMOS effects
Smallish screen
No user replaceable battery
Siri is limited in what it can do and understand. Looks the same as the iPhone 4 — what's up with that? A twoyear contract means you may not be eligible for the best upgrade pricing
Same design
Siri isn't yet fully capable in the UK
Battery performance is unchanged
No 4G connectivity
It's about time we get a larger screen
Can't use data and voice at same time with Verizon version
Siri doesn’t work offline -- in any capacity. 100 hour drop in battery’s standby time. Slow HDR photography. Some battery issues cropping up
Zero visual differentiation
No LTE
Placement of the lens takes some getting used to No manual control of ISO and White Balance A larger
Interfaccia veloce, efficiente e intuitiva, ottima qualità delle finiture, grande disponibilità di accessori, qualità e sensibilità anche in bassa luce della fotocamera.
Alcuni difetti di gioventù di iCloud, prezzo italiano al top di quelli europei. Siri non disponibile in italiano.
