Apple iPhone 5 price range: $99.99 - $729.00
- Reviewed by: Scott Stein

- Released on: 09/21/2012
The good: The iPhone 5 adds everything we wanted in the iPhone 4S: 4G LTE, a longer, larger screen, free turn-by-turn navigation, and a faster A6 processor. Plus, its top-to-bottom redesign is sharp, slim, and feather-light.
The bad: Apple Maps feels unfinished and buggy; Sprint and Verizon models can't use voice and data simultaneously. The smaller connector renders current accessories unusable without an adapter. There's no NFC, and the screen size pales in comparison to jumbo Android models.
The bottom line: The iPhone 5 completely rebuilds the iPhone on a framework of new features and design, addressing its major previous shortcomings. It's absolutely the best iPhone to date, and it easily secures its place in the top tier of the smartphone universe.

Still the undisputed Champion of the world!!!! iPhone 5
by THEtejada on September 27, 2012
Pros: It's a lightweight phone with some heavyweight features. Durable design that doesn't feel cheap. Screen is absolutely beautiful to look at. No lag in the iOS software (very smooth) A6 Chip is quick and 4G LTE is even quicker. Turn by turn Navigation.
Cons: Lacks memory card access for added storage. Maps is basically a beta software that is going to require some time for Apple to fix. Camera is good but not great, would had prefer 10 megapixels on the back and 5 megapixels on the front camera by now.
Summary: Overall the iPhone 5 is a good solid phone. The changes implemented on the iPhone 5 should had been implemented on the iPhone 4S which would had made it the ...
Summary: Overall the iPhone 5 is a good solid phone. The changes implemented on the iPhone 5 should had been implemented on the iPhone 4S which would had made it the iPhone 5 and we would had been talking about the iPhone 5S or iPhone 6 by now but what can you do? I'm sure Apple had their reasons for not bringing these changes last year. The most advance 4G LTE technology makes this phone a pleasure to download music and movies. And even more of a pleasure to watch on the beautiful Retina display. Apple is really going to have to do some magic in order for me to let go of this phone next year. Actually this phone looks and feels like it can last a few years.

Summary: People are complaining about the Map App? LOL give me a break! or that it is too light? What are you losing your mind? There is ABSOLUTEY no comparison of this phone to so called silly "Android" phones. Android phones are for small minded people, not unlike Republicans who believe in things like creationism.
