  • The camera is good
  • But its flash is a disappointment. Battery life isn't good
  • Especially compared to some of the behemoths out there. And in places
  • IOS 7 feels unfinished
  • Or poorly thought out
  • Not significantly faster than 5C
  • Not enough new features
  • Battery life is no different
  • A 4.3-4.5-inch model wouldn't go astray
  • The fingerprint sensor is imperfect as a standalone authentication tool
  • And Apple doesn't (yet?) support two-factor authentication
  • Dual-band 802.11n and 100Mbps LTE aren't bad at all in the here-and-now
  • But they might be feeling a little dated by the t
  • External design is identical to that of the iPhone 5
  • Including a 4-inch screen that looks downright tiny next to Android competitors. For now
  • The fingerprint sensor only works with Apple apps. The 64-bit A7 processor and M7 motion-tracking chip don't ha
  • Lingering issues with Apple Maps
  • No NFC
  • No larger screen option
  • Relatively small screen
  • Below-average battery life
  • Limited camera features
  • Virtually identical design to iPhone 5
  • Display too small for some
  • Non-expandable
  • No real design upgrade
  • Still waiting for a bigger screen
  • IOS7 is still playing catchup
  • No real improvement to battery life
  • Small screen for an industry-leading smartphone
  • A 4" display on a flagship smartphone in 2013 seems so old fashioned
  • Screen still feels small next to other highend phones
  • Small screen for an industryleading smartphone
  • No option for larger display
  • Relatively expensive offcontract
  • No WiFi 802.11ac support
  • No 128GB option
  • No 'Swypelike' keyboard
  • Apple and iOS developers have yet to dream up truly innovative features. Still waiting for Siri to reach her full potential
  • 4-inch phones are starting to feel small
  • IOS is far from perfect
  • Insensitive touchscreen (probably defective unit)
  • True tone flash is slow to capture image
  • Incompatible apps
  • No change in design and screen tech
  • The iPhone 5S deserves to be the best smartphone of the year. You could debate that there is no innovation
  • Storage options haven’t changed. Small number of A7- and M7-optimized experiences at press time. Not as essential an upgrade as the last one.
  • Similar to previous iPhones
  •  Feels outdated in the face of competition
  • Touch ID usage is limited
  • Dual-tone flash doesn't help much
  • No 802.11ac support
  • Despite a larger battery
  • Realworld battery performance too often falls below Apple's best case estimates
  • With potentially major problems in cellular calling talk time
  • And similar drain with cellular data. LTE service remains inconsistent between neighb
  • The smaller display bothers me a bit
  • But Apple's hardware is stunning and the tradeoff for apps and functionality is worth it to me. If the iPhone 5s had a 4.3 to 4.7 display
  • An IR port for remote control capability
  • And Qi wireless charging then I woul
  • In low light conditions (20 lux and under)
  • Edges are sharp but details are lost
  • Strong luminance noise in low light conditions
  • Fingerprint scanner isn't as good as it should be
  • Major OS changes are often decent
  • More often abysmal
  • Battery life isn't competitive with top Android phones
  • Not the best phone on the market after launch
  • Poor black levels
  • Poor contrast ratio
  • Resolution could be better
  • Screen size could be larger
  • Non-extendable internal storage
  • Not enough to warrant an upgrade for current iPhone 5 users. Android flagships are just as good as the iPhone these days.
  • Last year's design
  • Touch ID needs third-party support
  • Still no user control over settings

  • Apple mantiene su hoja de ruta implacable y no es para menos si tenemos en cuenta que los resultados le son favorables. Por ahora su apuesta es por beneficios y posicionamiento más que por cuota de mercado, y al menos en EEUU le da resultado.Este iPhone 5...

  • Llega el momento de hacer balance sobre el nuevo iPhone 5s. El terminal de Apple ha sido bastante criticado por no aportar "gran cosa" frente a su predecesor, apostando por un diseño calcado y una experiencia de usuario similar. El teléfono sin embargo no...

  • Como hemos dicho al inicio no es que sean dos móviles comparables si bien algún lector nos ha dicho que ha pasado de un iPhone 5S a un Note 3 y estamos deseando que nos cuente su experiencia. ¿El mejor? Los dos, está claro. Cada uno valorará más un aspec...

  • La mezcla de nuevo hardware e iOS 7 convierte al iPhone 5S en el smartphone más rápido del mercado, doblando la potencia del iPhone 5 y el iPhone 5C, con el que sólo se lleva 100 euros de diferencia. La cámara del iPhone 5S Tras los recientes lanz...

  • El procesador A7 que integra es más rápido que su antecesor, lo cual brinda una experiencia mejor en juegos y reproducción de video. La calidad de las fotografías aumentó considerablemente, tanto para interiores, como exteriores. Método de identificación
  • Las opciones de conectividad siguen manteniéndose iguales. Para tareas más demandantes, una actualización de batería hubiera sido el complemento perfecto para sus chips A7 y M7
  • ¿Es un buen teléfono? Muy bueno. ¿Es el celular que todos estábamos esperando este año? No. ¿Si tengo un iPhone 5 marcará una gran diferencia si actualizo a este teléfono? Tampoco. A menos que quieras tener la última tecnología de Apple en tus manos an...
