  • "iPhone 5 - The BEST phone you can have."
    5.0 stars
    on by Demne

    Pros: Pros:
    1. Best Ecosystem in the world. - Works amazing w/ PC/Mac/iPad
    2. Larger Screen 4.0
    3. LTE
    4. Fastest CPU out beating the Samsung G3 in performance.
    5. Easiest phone to use/navigate.
    6. Best Apps out and not riddled w/ Malware like Android

    Cons: 1. iTunes is not the easiest to master but once you do, it's very easy to use.
    2. MAPS app needs some work but I have no doubt that if Apple continues to work and develop MAPs that it can easily beat Google Maps.

    Summary: Apple has the best phone out bar none.

    The iPhone 5 is incredibly fast, is easy to use, and has an incredible following.

    There are so many reasons to have the iPhone 5 over Android or Windows phones.

    1. The Best ecosystem in the world. There are more cases, radios, cars, printers, apps that take advantage of iOS than any other phone.
    2. The Larger Screen at 4.0in and 16x9 ratio makes watching movies gorgeous, taking phones amazing, and the phone is designed to be held in one hand comfortably and still be easy to navigate.
    3. Unlike Android/Windows phones.. the Iphone 5 is made of Glass and Aluminum instead of cheap plastics.
    4. The Iphone 5 and predecessors have the BEST resell value of any phone. If you buy an iphone under contract.. in 2 years you can resell your phone easily for $200 dollars and upgrade at no cost. You can NOT say that for any Android phone because they have no value.
    5. Siri has vastly improved with iOS 6 and continues to get better.
    6. Apple TV is a must have with an i0S device. You can mirror, stream home movies, music, YouTube, presentations with Pages/Keynote/Numbers at School or the Office and use your iPhone 5 as the remote.
    7. LTE super fast speeds now on the most advanced Phone.
    8. Best Apps hands down. Apple protects it's users by validating Apps that you download or purchase are real. The scrutinize their Apps that developers make and if the App is not real or designed to be in the users best interest, they will delete the APP from the App Store to protect the clients.. Unlike Android's apps that are not tested and you could easily download a threatening virus.
    9. iTunes Match for $25 bucks is worth getting. You can hold 25000 songs in the cloud, you can delete songs off your computer or iPhone 5 and re-install them at any time. You can also play the song without installing it to your device. If you purchase the song from Apple, it does not take up any space of the 25000 songs.
    10. Once you master iTunes it is actually a pretty easy software to use, create playlists and albums. Also you can take blurays and use the digital codes and Apple will consider your movie a purchase and will keep a digital copy in the cloud forever for you to use on your new iPhone 5.
    11. iPhone 5 is a world phone and you can use it on business trips and vacations.
    12. iPhone 5 is great for work and school. The business applications for iPhone 5 are amazing with iWorks support using Pages for word processing, Keynote for presentations, and Numbers for spreadsheets. Calendars and Email can also work easily with Microsoft Exchange.
    13. The 8 megapixel camera and front facing Facetime 720p camera are gorgeous. Photos are beautiful and luscious. You can video chat using Facetime with anyone else with an iPhone, iPad, or Mac computer as well as Skype. Panorama mode is OUTSTANDING. You can take long beautiful photos on vacations.
    14. iPhote/iMovie are fan to edit photo/movies. You have powerful editors to make all your pictures and movies look amazing as well as edit your audio. You can even use music soundtracks in your library in your movies and photo albums.

    I can go on and on people why the iPhone 5 is far superior to any Android and Windows 8 phone out there. The iPhone 5 is the next phone you should get and has the best ecosystem in the world.

    odb32, I have the iPhone 5 as well. Also.. all of those things you just mentioned.. Go buy the adapter.. Hey look.. all of your devices still work. My BMW 325i and Toyota Corolla both work with the adapter and phone.

    Things to consider before purchasing an iPhone 5: The new lightning connector was necessary but has eliminated ipod control to legacy 30 pin devices i.e. Alpine stereos, BMW's with ipod control, and other devices requiring ipod control will no longer work fully, even with the lightning to 30 pin adapter. Also LTE isn't worth a damn if you live outside the coverage area even though it's a joy to use when available. Other than that, I own an iPhone 5, just unboxed it. It may be a good idea to actually own the device and have a variety of peripherals to use it with before wasting your time writing a review. All of the above information and more, has been presented in an official review from cnet.
