The iPhone 5 Review
All You Need To Know About The iPhone 5
In Short… It’s A Lot Better Than Its Predecessors, BUT…
Prior to the iPhone 5 reviews, rumors rang loudly on all corners of the globe. Everyone came up with their own theories, analysis and speculations.
To be honest with you, I was really excited about it myself and I’m sure many of you were too. I had to wait till Apple finally blew the whistle, and then the rumors stopped.
Now that the lid is off, details of the iPhone 5 is finally out, and there is no more need for speculations.
So let’s quit talking about the past & Let’s Get Really Started with What’s New About the iPhone 5?
Physical Dimension / Observation:
– The Thinnest phone by Apple (7.6mm), & weighs 112 grams
– Taller than its predecessors (123.8 H x 58.6 W) compared to iPhone 4 series (115.15 H x 58.6 W)
– Exterior is made entirely out of Aluminum and Glass
– Comes in 2 colors; Black & White.
– Nano-SIM card. Smaller than previous SIM cards
– TV-out – Smaller socket
Screen Display:
– The screen has a 4-inch display.
– Touch sensors on the screen is Built-into the display.
– The glass is 30% thinner. This makes it less prone to glare.
– Has a 16:9 aspect ratio and vertical pixels which add a fifth row of Icons to the home screen.
– Pixels are 1136×640, around 44% more color saturation. And that means Splendid Images.
One thing I really love about the great graphics and bigger screen, is the idea of watching widescreen movies. With Such a larger screen, you have more space and therefore less scrolling down or from side to side.
One major concern many of you will have, and mainly cell phone app developers, is how will an old app work on the iPhone 5. With such a big screen it is bound to affect in one way or another the app’s function, or at least damage the graphics to fit the screen size.
No Worries. Apple has already thought of that (at least that’s the message they try to deliver). To keep your minds at ease, all old apps downloaded on the iPhone 5 will keep its original size with black borders around the empty space.
I must admit, with such thick black borders it wouldn’t look so pretty, and it would be less comfortable playing certain games. But it is still better than nothing. Besides, it won’t be long before the old apps are updated to fit the new iPhone 5 and then you’ll really enjoy it.
