Apple iPhone 5 User Reviews

best phone ever made . Been using it for 6 months till now, and still happy with it. Liquid smooth, punchy graphics, premium design,and packed with blazingly fast performance. There's almost nothing I dont like or love about this phone. It is totally awesome! When it comes to social networking, it even beats the Blackberrys with its fast loading time and fast typing experience. When it comes to camera, all my friends say WOW. The sound, the video, the graphics are all perfect eventhough its not a FullHD one. But with the Retina Display, you'll see things like real!

Had a Samsung S3, now a Iphone love the size of the phone its smaller and easier to handle, like in any thing you do have Pros and Cons for any product but in general love it. for me the fact that you can't create a page without having a Icon it is what is good in the Iphone, with my samsung I would accedently create pages while holding in hand and it's a hassle to get to delete then, and the Iphone holds places for 4 more Icons and can have a lot more applications on one page

Been using it from February till now, and Im happy with it! its a realy fast device, has smooth graphics, premium aluminum design, and packed with great beterry performance. There's almost nothing I dont like or love about this phone! It is totally awesome! realy fast loading times. The camera and the soud are awesome!
I am not going to switch this phone for other ones unless for the next iPhone. Apple did a great job!

Great phone!! Love the audio quality and the camera! Great apps selection and great speed!!!!!!!!!!!!! The battery is nice, maybe isn't the best.. But it's okey
Maybe the best phone in the world!!!!!!!

Very good phone. it does what its supposed to do. it has never froze on me until i installed ios7 Beta(its beta so yeah.)
Although i like this phone i do plan on going back to Android simply for the customization and none proprietary-ness.

Apple had a few issues with the iphone 4s but with its new successor, every thing i had against apple, i take it back .. Iphone 5 is simply an amazing phone with all the features you can want in a smart phone ..

I got this phone pretty recent and I am loving it! Everything about it is perfect. The way it's designed is very complex but it's beautiful. The camera is my favorite feature! Always using it, along with my camera apps. It responds to every touch I make on it and. I would definitely recommend this phone to anyone who is looking for a phone a great camera, nice design, and something very fast!

i hate this phone because i had it for 6 months now battery SUCK display is dark everything the phone offer is nothing compare it to other phone it just look good but the rest of the phone sucks camera is alright call qualty is bad is just the look of it that looks good thats it

Best all around phone, does everything and there is literally an app for anything u can think of in the App Store. The build quality is amazing and I expect iOS 7 to take it to an entirely different level

i'm was an android user, i had the Galaxy Nexus for 6 months, rooted. first the build quality of the iPhone 5 is just awesome, perfect weight perfect height. the reason i didn't like my GNX was its size, it was just too big for me although it is also a very good phone. i had plenty of troubles when doing something in a busy environment so big phones are just not for me. the display is very sharp in iPhone 5 though it has a smaller screen when compared its just a pleasure to watch something on it. the camera is an all rounder, it performed well in most of the situations, night or day. the apps are just so much rich than in andoid, the speaker is not very loud but the output is very much clear i even feel a small bass :) than even in Galaxy S4 which is very loud but distorted. im not a heavy user so the battery lasts a whole day which i'm pleased. the reception is good and call quality is very good. there's actually nothing i didn't like about this phone. overall its a very good phone. i'm totally happy with the purchase.

I bad Lumia 920 before and got bored and finally bought iPhone. Now I'm really happy.
Battery last very nike, screen is fantastic, now I can get all software I need, very very fast camera, all works so well. Couldn't be happier!

You can't beat that build quality. I've never had a problem with reception or call quality. Webkit is certainly nice, but I wish I had more choice with what engine I use without having to jailbreak. iTunes and quicktime make for amazing mp3/mp4/m4a. The camera is okay, but it could be better. The UI is ultra-smooth and never stutters and it's totally reliable for everyday use. The autocorrect is okay, but obviously has some problems. Retina and glass make it a beautiful display. The battery is ok, but it could be better.

It upgrade with guaranteed of 3 years or better on upgrade.

i don't need concept of nexus for me to like android on stock . Truth be told Xperia ion was better then Galaxy s3. Mainly, because of it camera just like s3 over hyped from reviews, I feel like s4 will not be best phone either. Same like nexus 4 wasnt best phone in 2012.

Android have to many phones and that is the main reason why app arent optimize or supported.

Ios have no issue when it come to that even iphone 4 can download and play hd game that 2010 android phones cant . Unless you mod the phone apple is simple and i like that I dont need to tamper with it.

Camera is better the nexus 4 and galaxy s3.

Nexus is yet to get upgrade beside android 4.2 os and galaxy nexus to me is going to probably shaft from getting android 5.0 os and it 2011 year phone.

Can apple say that iphone 4s wont 7.0 os from 5.0 os?? I dont think so.

Apple is great on movies and games.
Bigger screen?? No thanks I buy tablet or Laptop if i want that.

I have Verizon and I've been through many of their top smartphones, (Droid Razr, Galaxy S3, Droid X, OG Droid) and honestly I can say that the iPhone has been the best phone I have ever gotten. I wrote everything next to the ratings bar :)

I am just stuned. I've just almost every phone that is out now and i didn't find anything special in none of those except in iPhone 5. When i first saw it i tought that it's crap but when i tried it a knew that i won't ever switch from iPhone if the next generations brings the same spark that the iPhone 5 brought.

I've had the phone almost 6 months now, and use it regularly every day, from gaming to messaging, email to music. It's on 24x7, and is everything from my car's new nav system to my alarm clock. I can totally depend on it.

It doesn't get much easier to review a phone than this. Great reception with LTE. Great battery life. Awesome display. Perfect weight. Perfect size. Incredibly thin. Awesome camera. Tons of storage. Fast processor. And then, there's the supporting infrastructure, with huge app and multimedia stores with all the content you could desire.

The only thing I can quibble about would be the new 16x9 display -- when in landscape mode and surfing the web or reading text, the vertical height is almost too short. I much preferred the old 3x2 aspect ratio for landscape, but I can live with this as videos and games display better in 16x9. It's a design compromise that I can live with, though.

Lets be honest here all the top end phones are great but the iphone 5 is just lacking when it comes to a lot of features. I bought it and returned it the next day. I am very tech. savy and i notice issue a lot probably wont. This phone is falling far behind the others.
If you compare it wth the other phones out there it just doesnt seem able to compete.
The other thing that really bugs me is all the issues apple is having with the software. the purple haze in the pictures, the battery life after you updated the software, the random lines on the keyboard. They keep putting out more updates that just cause more issues. If you ask me im going to wait for the s4 and pirchase that.

i had an iphone 5 for about 2 month.
I had tow big problemes with it
1- the build quality is so bad and very easy to scratch.
2- the battery life, it drained so fast.
I recommend iPhone 4s, it's one of the best phone I have ever seen

My close friend bought this mobile phone. I cant find a difference between that and my iPhone 4. The build quality is good but the user experience is like just the same as the first iPhone. Battery life is not the best and no expandable storage.

Ok, I didn't buy this phone. It's a prize from a friend of mine. After comparing this phone to my Galaxy Note II, everything that exists in this phone also exists in My Note II. Even my Note II have much more features. People say this is the best phone, but it's just a gimmick & hype. I can't even customize the home screen like my Note II. The UI is as simple as usual, just a boring grid of icons . As you know, no widgets here, it's pretty boring for a person who always want speed & ease like me. I don't want to open the mail app just for checking my email, it can be done faster & easier with widgets. The maps app sucks, the map of my country isn't complete. Luckily I can download Google Maps from the app store. The signal & the speaker are weak. The proximity sensor behave weirdly. G sensor is not sensitive. I can't transfer music via bluetooth. Why do you buy iphone if there are many smartphones that are better & cheaper than the iphone? The summary is concluded in the score below.

I have never owned an Apple product before but decided to buy iphone 5 to see why its so famous and so liked. I guess now I know why,this phone is simply awesome.its a pleasure to hold this phone.it really feels like a swiss watch and the hard work and time on its design could be felt when you hold it in your hand.its smooth and fast.battery life is also satisfactory and screen might not be the best on paper n=but in reality its the best i have seen.

Bought a new iPhone 5 just a 2 days back. this phone had a camera flash issue. The Apple people told me to get replaced but only the mobile device not the full box that too i should wait for 1 week. The re seller never helps in this issue even though it was just a day happened after the sale. So please dont buy apple without checking at shop itself. As it has lots of bug and hardware problem. The customer care is worst with apple.

So, I am compelled to give my honest opinion on the iPhone 5....it is the most overrated device on the market. I had the HTC One X for about a month and the new larger size drove me crazy...but the UI on the HTC was amazing...however, I was convinced by many devoted iPhone lemmings and close friends that my life would change with the 5, so..I traded my HTC for the 5. The two biggest benefits- size of phone and camera. Beyond that the iPhone 5 comes up short everywhere else. Now, I know you iPhone/Apple fanboys are shaking your heads with blinding dissent of the facts that I am presenting..but they are indeed facts. Poor predictive input, horrible user interface (too many steps for simple things..really setting an alarm shouldn't take that many steps), availability of apps and ability to customize...safari browser limitations, poor button layout on screen..battery life..are some of the major offenders. So, for anyone who is researching what smartphone to get...if you have a brand attachment to Apple....get the iPhone 5...for shallow reasons alone..if you want great UI get one of the new Android devices.

i have used this phone for quite few time. my sister loves it. for her its the best phone on earth. for me. its really a mediocre phone. there are so much better phone out, doesn't matter if its android or WP8. IP5 did not deserve all the hype. im sure the next iphone wont look any different from its predecessor
