We taught a 5S to learn our thumbs and forefingers. This can replace the need for passcodes and the iPhone can store up to five fingerprints, meaning a family can have access to a device with their respective fingers. This makes browsing big, image- and interactivity-heavy websites much smoother and with less waiting.Ī new offering in the 5s is the ability to unlock the device and make iTunes Store purchases using your fingerprint. The iPhone 4s, conversely, took 1,570ms the iPhone 4 took 2,636ms. This is, again, around double what the iPhone 5 could achieve (717ms - the very same as the iPhone 5c). Using the Sunspider suite of benchmarks, Safari on the iPhone 5s raced through tasks in 398ms. It's exceptionally fast for a mobile browser, and we ran some benchmarks to put that in context. Other apps already take advantage of the faster processor, and a notable mention is the Safari web browser. Apps are now able to check for updates in the background even if the app itself isn't running, and this makes life a little more frictionless when programs like Downcast, a podcast aggregator, periodically downloads new episodes when you move from location to location without having to be manually refreshed.
It should eventually also seriously aid multi-tasking, which is something Apple has improved with iOS 7.
Safe to say there's considerable oomph here for future app developers to exploit, and plenty to immediately notice if upgrading from much older iPhones. The iPhone 5 scored 1,305, just over half the power of the 5s the just-announced 5c scored similarly at 1,282 the older iPhone 4s scored a low 412 and older still, the iPhone 4, scored a mere 206. That means little without context but the higher the number, the better the processor. We put the phone through its paces using the GeekBench 3 suite of benchmarking tools and verified Apple's claims. It's early days for apps that truly take advantage of the power on offer inside the iPhone 5s, but power there is: Apple's A7 chip is claimed to be twice as powerful as the iPhone 5. The result of these factors produced a much clearer image, particularly in low light as demonstrated here. The other benefit here is that the although both iPhone 5 and 5s have eight megapixels, the size of the pixels are slightly larger on the 5s and that means it can capture more light.
IPHONE 5S RECENT MENU ISO
On the iPhone 5s, the camera only chose ISO 2,500, and this resulted in less visual noise and pixellation. On the iPhone 5 image, the phone captured at ISO sensitivity level 3,200, which resulted in the greater level of noise (the bigger the number, the more visible noise). Additionally, the iPhone 5s did not need to increase the sensitivity of the image sensor to compensate for the lower amount of light it had to work with. This is the part of the camera lens that lets in light, and the more light, the better the picture potential. This is down to several factors, but most importantly the aperture on the iPhone 5s is wider than that of the iPhone 5.

As flexible as Android's homescreens can be, and as personal as it's possible to make them, it's often at the cost of imposing complexity on the user.
It's one point of criticism Apple faces quite often: why does the homescreen design never evolve like Android's? It's arguably to keep complexity at bay. But what remains is an interface that feels familiar, logical and easy to navigate.
IPHONE 5S RECENT MENU WINDOWS
There are no widgets like Google search boxes (as seen on Android), nor any app icons that display realistically useful information (as seen on Windows Phone's live tiles). On the inside the 5s runs iOS 7, which is available for devices as old as the iPhone 4 and iPad 2, but it's the only choice for the iPhone 5s.Īesthetically compared to iOS 6 and earlier, iOS 7 is the same but different: there are no major changes to how the homescreens that house your icons are laid out, save for the fact that folders of apps are now paginated to accommodate dozens of apps instead of just a handful. To move to the 5s from one of those competitors will result in Apple's phone feeling small, but it still feels like a solid balance between screen size, screen quality and usability. Those other devices' screens are a good inch bigger. Galaxy S4, HTC's one and the new Sony Xperia Z1, the iPhone 5s's screen is small.
