what's up everyone John Richter from TechnoBuffalo here at the full review for you of this guy the iPhone 5s Apple's flagship device I put it through its paces for quite a while and I want to share my thoughts up to you and help you decide whether or not it's worth the upgrade let's get started so as I do with all my phone reviews I want to give my disclaimer I used this guy for seven days since the launch day as my daily driver and I tested it using AT&T in Southern California we did a full review of iOS 7 so I'm not really gonna focus on how the OS works but more on how it works with the device and not critique iOS 7 so much itself let's jump in and talk right about hardware so cosmetically this is pretty much an iPhone 5 it feels exactly the same just with a different color palette obviously though there are huge differences that go well beneath the surface here so let's talk about the biggest one the upgrades and that's that own button right there touch ID the fingerprints and scanner setup in typical applications crazy easy just a few taps on your thing on the home button and you're pretty much all set I really like the idea in the implementation Apple put it front and center of the phone making it really difficult to not at least try out there you put it on the back like another device you might not use it really I bet everyone who's picking up an iPhone 5s at least gives it a shot so to use it you actually do a few ways you can either push the home button all the way down or you can just leave your finger right on top of it either way it will unlock it it worked pretty well registering my finger prints on average about 6 out of 10 times which seems to be on par with most people's experiences if yours varies enough to hear it leave in the comments down below if you're used to using a password on an older iPhone you know the four times you get the entry actually your PIN code won't bother you but if you just used to unlock your phone and go you might find it a really really annoying but you really should have a pastor on your phone anyway so let that be a lesson to you password geophone I like the iTunes integration but for me touch ID is more about the future than simply about just unlocking your phone should Apple ever decide to open up the API is remembering passwords would be a thing of the past imagine just buying things on your phone not remembering any passwords just holding your finger out over the home button and just get everything now to remember your itunes patch don't remember your Amazon pass whatever it might be just all you need is this guy that's always a debt to your hand another mission for me on the iPhone 5s though is even to 11ac apples Airport Extreme Base Station ships with it and it's filtered down to the laptop line so why not on this guy you're coming way more standing other devices this is one really big head scratcher so it's really impossible to talk about the a7 and m7 with any authority nothing currently written takes advantage even remotely of any bit of power their benchmark show it's at least as powerful if not more powerful in the currently in the Snapdragon 800 so suffice it to say it's a written fast phone I'm sure those more apps come out take advantage of processing and motion power the 5s will see a huge difference but in everyday you said you felt the same speed wise the iPhone 5 which to me never felt like a slow phone at all there's not much you to talk about screen wines it's still the same 4-inch screen at the 326 PPI as the iPhone 5 that came before it I usually gloss over camera my reviews cuz for me it's the camera phone as good as they looked on my screen and Facebook is really mostly all I care about I'm usually pretty happy with just that but I've had a request to focus more on it so I'm a man of the people so let's rock the new duel two colored LED flash is actually pretty awesome shots in low-light at the flash I look way less washed out like night and day pun intended full images in the written review if you want to take a look at it which a link will be down below you can see it all those looks like flash on flash off wax on wax off on a side note I don't really like the camera UI all that when freezing which is very unintuitive for me but personal preference there on the server so you might say the camera is the same as the iPhone 5 it seemed to be a theme here they both have the same day megapixel shooter but that's really not the full story at all larger pixels on the 5s do create more vibrant images showing brighter colours and darker blacks but it's still the camera phone so don't leave your DSLR at home but it's good enough to show Mom and Dad you're picturing a brand new baby for example let's jump into battery life battery life from the iPhone 5 was it's always okay good enough to get me through a whole day but just never class-leading it's largely the same on the iPhone 5s but about 510 percent worse so keep that in mind so my general usually I'll take the phone off the charger around 7 a.m. usually I make two to three hours phone calls I was connected to Wi-Fi pulling down to email addresses about an hour so of video watching thrown in there texting social media and some games started in there and usually you know I get sometimes around 30% at the end of the day which again is about 5 to 10 percent less than the iPhone 5s now I've been using this guy pretty heavily taking tons of baby pictures so I can say it with authority next let's talk about software and I promise I was like gonna review iOS 7 but you got to talk about the OS on the phone it's different now I give the Apple credit people want two different DUI and iOS 7 has been super polarizing obviously to say the least but iPhone the camp that just likes change even if it's just for changes sake so for me it's kind of welcome there are a bunch of design cues throughout this whole thing the frosted glass for example is a nice touch there are parts like the calendar that put design way before function it's usually the other way around so kind of interesting to see Apple take that approach are some good things those series way better and almost some park the kick-ass Google search and also she can be a dude down so what's a conclusion on the iPhone 5s this is clearly the best iPhone ever made it's been the case with every flagship iPhones in 2007 it brings some new and welcome design things to the table in the form of touch ID processing power horse power colors and camera Apple seems to really focus on refining their software features not adding a whole bunch of new ones like Samsung to other iterations of the galaxy for me that really depends on what you like and need so there's very little reason to upgrade from the iPhone 5 the time apps come along they take advantage of the a7 m7 combo the iPhone 6 the probably on the horizon anyway I really upgrade if you have to have the latest tech toy available or need that better camera flash combo or just really big golden if you have an iPhone 4s earlier jump on in you'll get all the great features the iPhone 5 plus some new things for it the 5s your best bet though is probably to wait for a redesigned iPhone 6 I know it seems weird to say wait for an unannounced device still a year or more away but I don't see anything must-have on the 5s it really can't get on my combo the iPhone 5 and iOS 7 so the final verdict on the iPhone 5s it's a very solid 8.5 it's a great phone and a very good evolution of the iPhone line I think your guys's
