Impression Design and Materials
See-saw, there was no difference too striking of the iPhone 5, except for the color. The difference is quite noticeable the only Dual LED flash on the camera, and the Home button now becomes a circle given the same color as the ring touches the side list. There is no box in the circle. List side and the back is made of aluminum, with the exception of the top and bottom on the back cover is made ??from glossy, white. 3.5mm audio jack is on the bottom, accompanied loudspeaker, charger port/Data Lightning and mic. Mic and loudspeaker shape itself to me personally feel less disconnected with the overall design of the iPhone 5S, still better loudspeaker design in the iPhone 4S.
Impression still holds its own iPhone 5S as the previous iPhone, thanks to the classy materials and fine finishing, simple but elegant design, the feel of holding it feels solid. Although the shape of a rectangle and flat on the sides and back, but because the size is not so big still make this phone comfortable grip. Dimensions and weighs the same as the iPhone 5, with a thickness of only 7.6 mm, and weighs only 112 grams, and is generally lighter than most smartphones.
screen
Like the previous iPhone, Apple equip the iPhone 5S with IPS screen Retina Display, with a width of 4 inches and a resolution of 1136x640 pixels (326 pixels per inch). When compared to the iPhone 5, 5S screen is more reddish, but still natural. Problem saturation seemed to be increased, perhaps to adjust with iOS 7 colorful. Screen quality is as usual among the most good of all smartphones, natural but still punchy. Viewing Angle it was perfect. Under the scorching sun screen is still clearly visible. Its just unfortunate thing is the size, in maan 4 inches already feels small at this time, given the many flagship Android smartphone with a screen in the range of 5 inches. Indeed, 4 -inch screen makes the device more practical and portable, but not everyone is comfortable in a small screen (and vice versa), Apple should provide more choice to consumers again.
iOS 7
Apples latest version of iOS are always buried in each of their new iPhone. IPhone 5S in their use IOS version 7, which diredesain massive than iOS6. In terms of appearance iOS7 more simple, flat and colorful than iOS6. Factors taste, but for personal writer looks to be more modern and fun than it used to . Ease of operation in the user interface of course still present in every Apple device.
By default, the lock screen is still using the Slide to Unlock, which looks naked without a slider bar, much simpler. In fact you can actually unlock the screen from the side clicking anywhere on the screen as long as the sweep left to right. Above you can pull down the Notification Center down, while at the bottom, you can pull the center Control Center, which contains the toggle Airplane, WiFi, Bluetooth, Do Not Disturb and screen rotation, then no brightness settings, as well as music and tools. Notification Center and Control Center itself can be accessed in the main menu and settings. In the bottom right corner, if you pull up you will be directly accessible to the camera application.
You can use your finger to unlock the phone, because 5S has a fingerprint scanner on the Home button. To use it, you must enable the use of a 4-digit passcode, for fingerprint alternative if you can not use. Fingerprinting process long enough, you have to lift and put your finger on the Home button for repeatedly. If you are finished, you can add some other fingerprints as an alternative. With this feature, the use of mobile phone unlock so much easier but still safe.
Apples iOS does not use the homescreen, so straight to the main menu with an application that is composed of 4x5 app icons, application icons and 4 remain at the bottom. By holding the Home button for a few moments, the arrangement of the icons can be changed as you like, but its size can not be changed. You can create folders to overwrite an icon with another icon. Currently there are no pages Search on the main menu, you can bring it to perform gestures from the central area to the bottom.
You can change the lockscreen wallpaper or background on the main menu. Press the Home button twice then it will carry over to the most recent apps, which seem to zoom somewhat mimics the look of recent apps on Android, plus gesture to close the application can be done by swiping upwards. Hold Home then you go to Siri (must be done first setting). There is an innate dynamic wallpaper settings and still. For dynamic wallpaper, wallpapernya as Live Wallpaper on Android smartphones, with only a few color options.
The speed and performance of this phone is perfect, no lag or anything that interferes. IPS screen makes use of a background that is mostly white sub menus more optimal. Colorful of iOS7 itself is designed in such a way that even the smallest details of the interface simplicity spirit, and colorful flats are still there.
Input Text, Contacts and Messaging
The QWERTY keyboard is the only input method for iPhone 5S, with features such as auto - capitalized, auto correct, check spelling, enable capslock and shortcuts (like AutoText on BlackBerry). For keyboards other languages ??such as Chinese, Arabic, Japanese and others to choose from as the International Keyboard first by selecting Settings and then select the keyboard in the International Keyboard. Then when typing you can switch by pressing the globe. Hold to select the language you want to use if you install a lot of language options. Wide screen iPhone 5S is still the same as the previous iPhone, so typing either one or two hands easy to do.
Contacts consist of Favourites, Recent, contacts. For each contact you can add a photo, name, email, phone number, ringtone, sms tone, home page, and other addresses. Both the Mail and the Contact can be synced with iCloud account, Exchange, Google, Yahoo, Aol and Outlook. As for existing Messaging SMS, email, and IM form of iMessage, a type similar to BBM chat exclusive for any iDevice, but it uses the phone number and Apple ID as the account used. Users can choose to turn off or turn on iMessage feature that becomes one with the SMS application. There was also the option to receive notifications read and send as an SMS if there is no data network. Other IM application can be downloaded in the App Store, such as Line, WhatsApp, and so on.
Camera and Video Recorder
If during this iPhone camera interface is considered to be very simple and minimal features, it is little changed in iOS 7 and the iPhone 5S. There are several modes that can be selected by using the sweep on the screen, namely :
- Photo : Photographing full 8MP.
- Square : Take the square mode, suitable for Instagram and Profile Picture on your accounts.
- Panorama : shoot panoramic photos up to 28MP resolution.
- Video : Record full HD 1920x1080 pixels. As usual there is no option for a lower resolution.
- Slo - Mo Video : record video with a high frame rate to 120 frames per second. Video resolution is reduced to 1280x720 pixels.
There are several filters such as Mono, Tonal, Noir and so on which can be seen in real time. Also in Photo mode and Square you can use the HDR effect. Camera interface is simple, so it is not surprising that so easy to use. Focusing the camera to the object is quite easy, using only touch to focus. Continuous Autofocus is present in the iPhone 5S, but it feels autofocus is done too aggressively, plus the feature can not be turned off. Photographing could use the virtual shutter button on the screen, can also use the volume keys. To do Burst shot, quite easily. Just hold down the shutter button, both virtual and volume buttons, as long as you want.
The camera is good and only 8MP resolution is adequate, although, at the time already 13MP Android smartphone competitors, but it was not very influential. His picture has a punchy color and still natural (non- HDR). In the room created a lot of noise but still be forgiven, the results remain sharp. To see the original image please download at this link. While we upload the photos below in the appropriate album Photobucket on the device name, please click the photo below to open a new tab in your browser, we also upload photos HDR version (shown below the normal version).
Results and stunningly good video recording, not least because the bitrate used quite high, reaching 14200kbps, produces a file of 100MB for each minute of video recording. For the 120 fps video recording, we do not upload it to Youtube because a video sharing site that displays only a maximum of 30 fps. We uploaded it to this link, please downloaded and played in slow motion in Media Player Classic on your PC.
Gallery, Video Player and Music Player
Image viewer is divided into three namely Photos (based on photo shooting spot and based on the date), Shared (via iCloud Photo Sharing feature), Albums (by sharing on your phone). You can share photos through email, message, assign to contact, used as wallpaper, tweeted and in print, as well as the latest, distributed through Facebook. There is a simple photo editing facility where you can rotate photos, auto- enhance, remove red-eye and cropping photos.
For video playback do not expect much , codecs supported is limited. Mp4, M4v and Mov up to 1080p resolution. Fortunately screen has adopted a 16:9 aspect ratio HD video so watch more leverage. Special m4v format, a standard format videos that you bought on iTunes can use subtitles, different audio and divided into several chapters. It seems the video player specialized for video from iTunes only, although you can just put the video to the iPhone, but it should be formatted as referred to above. Alternatively, install third-party applications.
There is nothing new in the Music app, which is radio. Not a FM radio, but iTunes Radio. Free song streaming service allows you to hear the songs in iTunes depending on the category you select. But you have to use a U.S. iTunes account to use this feature.
For the music player is still no change, music synchronized with iTunes as usual. Categories include Playlists, Artists, Songs, Albums and others. There are features Cover Flow when the screen is positioned horizontally, Equalizer options, shake to shuffle, volume limit, lyrics and others. Unfortunately equalizer options are still available in the settings menu, not integrated in the music player so it is quite troublesome. It has never been a change since the first iPhone. To use the headset sound output, and enough natural suranya balance, so depending on your headset only. While the loudspeaker is quite loud, but not so good at the highest volume.
