iPhone 5 VS iPhone 4S: What're The Differences?

Finally the much anticipated iPhone 5 has been unleashed! Are you happy? Honestly I am not impressed with the new iPhone 5 (No! I am not bashing iPhone). Even though iPhone 5 looks like it has leapfrogged it predecessor (iPhone 4S) in a lot of department, iPhone 5 is still relatively weak compared to other smartphones on the market right now. IMHO, there is nothing much to shout about if we were to compare iPhone 5 with Samsung Galaxy S3 (even though Apple has months to make it better than the latter). So if you plan to upgrade your really old phone or smartphone, here are a few things about the new iPhone 5 that you need to know.
8 Things That You Need To Know About The New iPhone 5
  1. iPhone 5 is only 7.6mm thick (18% thinner compared to iPhone 4S) and 20% lighter as it tips the scale at 112grams.
  2. Viewing pleasure-wise, iPhone 5 packs a 4inch (finally) Retina Display which Apple claims have better colour saturation. This allows the new iPhone 5 to have extra set of icons to be displayed.
  3. As for connectivity, iPhone 5 now supports LTE, which is a true 4G connection.
  4. New A6 CPU-inside: This new processor is said to be 2 times faster than the brain inside of iPhone 4S. It is 22% smaller than its predecessor and definitely more energy-efficient.
  5. Better cameraS: Although the rear camera on iPhone 5 is still more or less the same as iPhone 4S-8MP with 5 element lens and an f/2.4 aperture. However the real stunning improvement about the camera on iPhone 5 is its shutter speed which is 40% faster compared to iPhone 4S. So you won't miss a thing now?
  6. Besides, iPhone 5 camera boost a new Panaromic Shooting Mode which can stitch together an effective 28 MegaPixel photo. This is truly something to shout about!
  7. Welcome Lightning-the new dock connector which is 80% smaller. Finally they have shrunk the tail!
  8. iPhone 5 will be powered by iOS6 which will have more features and comes with a more "understanding" Siri. Ha :D
