iPhone 5 Review

Is It A Big Change?

      Not really, the differences are fairly minor experience wise. The iPad revolutionized the computing industry because it was a new way to manipulate media. It offered a larger screen, many mocked and laughed at this idea because it made it seem like "A giant iPhone". But in reality, using a larger screen and Apple's multi-touch technology, the world realized that it was not just a bigger iPhone, but a new experience entirely. Other companies like motorola, and HTC immediately jumped on the tablet bandwagon.

      The most notable hardware features are the new A6 chip that packs 1.2 GHz clock speed with two cores. The display is also wider which makes the phone bigger, but the phone is lighter and thinner than the 4 and 4S. I saw this phone first hand at work (I work at Target Mobile).

You can notice the difference in speed when using it firsthand

Overall, its a great phone. It isn't the next big thing, but it's always nice to utilize the latest hardware. In time the value of this phone may be even greater once we see developers make great apps.
