Smartphone Review

The Comprehensive Performance Review iPhone 5. The new Apple products are always waiting. Even many loyal users to figure out, there will be any changes made by Apple for the new iPhone. What changes were made by Apple on the new iPhone?

Design

Dimensions: 123.8 x 58.6 x 7.66 mm, 112 grams; 8 pin connector.

iPhone 5 has a lighter weight, taller and thinner than the previous generation. Exactly 20 percent lighter i.e. 112 grams, 8.2 mm, and 1.7 higher thinner than its predecessor 4S. With more height and length body than allowing its screen using 4-inch wide, from the previous one which only 3.5 inches. This makes screen ratio were different, which makes it more comfortable either when gripped or see the screen.

Placement on front composition still not changed, because there only puts screens and menu buttons, the part that changes is the placement of the front camera in the above earpiece, where the previously placed in right beside. Besides other buttons as well as primary camera location was still placed exactly like iPhone 4S.

In terms of its form factor, due to the higher phone body, then it would complicate areas that are difficult to reach by your thumb, for example when trying to press the power button while in regular usage. Luckily, Apple managed to overcome them by decreasing phone areas.

Changes in location also made by Apple in 3.5 audio ports which previously on top, now placed at the bottom, alongside grid holes speakers. Not only that, but Apple also makes changes to the Data connector/power to a new type called Lightning. This change is quite surprising, considering that for over 5 years using Apple 30 pin connector. Not only that, a third party who has produced additional accessories that use the regular connection, should have to produce accessories for 8 pin connectors, or you have to set up converter from 30 pin connectors to 8 pins.

Screen

Display: Retina display, 4-inch 1136 x 640 pixels, 326 ppi

Bring a 4-inch screen, drastic changes have brought by the iPhone 5, because it carries a new screen ratio. In fact, the iPhone has been 6 years using a non-standard screen ratio, which is 3:2. And now Apple has finally brought the screen with ratio (near) 16:9, like other multimedia phones.

Ratio changes make resolution retina display systems using a widescreen reach 1136 x 640 pixels so that the screen iPhone 5 could be relied upon for displaying images, even to displaying like the original color.

Hardware

CPU: 1 GHz dual-core A6; GPU: PowerVR SGX 543MP3 (triple-core graphics); Memory: 1 GB

While other vendors are already using a quad-core processor, iPhone is still using a dual-core processor. Bringing speed 1 GHz A6 Chipset, A6 can still compete with other vendors’ class quad-core. Compared to its predecessor that still uses A5, the new processor speed is not significantly different, but when we tried, the iPhone 5 performance is likely to be more rapid.

OS & Software

iOS 6, Passbook, Map, SIRI

Using iOS 6, the iPhone5 display has not changed drastically, something different is matrix menu displaying one more menu added. This may be because the screen is much higher than before.

Not much different from previous maps based on Google Maps, in this new map are also features turn by turn navigation and 3D display. And this is an improvement compared to the previous map. Unfortunately, these functions are not available to users in some countries.

iPhone 5 also offers a payment application called Passbook. Like Newsstand and iBooks, the Passbook is a separate ecosystem inside iOS, as a place of online ticket management and digital payment modes. Merchant aka specialty stores or even a specific airline can offer a payment system that involves Passbook. Unfortunately, this feature could not even be used to its full potential in some countries. Anyway, without feature NFC (near field communication), Passbook is less than maximal.

And features that are also important are the SIRI feature. In the latest SIRI, Apple has a more complete database due for the last year stored through the SIRI server, Apple added a new vocabulary and better ability to SIRI that can reduce errors that occurred. For example, you can simply ask the results of sporting events simply by the mentioned team and matches the time you want.

SIRI feature was also developed to identify pronunciation errors and correct them immediately with a good response. With improper writing language, using SIRI, iPhone 5 is much more comfortable than before when testing iPhone 4S.

Camera

iSight 8 megapixel, f/2.4, panorma, HD video recorder (1080 p, 30 fps), Autofocus, + FaceTime HD camera 1.2 MP

Apple upgraded to 8 MP camera resolution which previously only 5 MP on 4S and also using a feature called iSight, where this feature already embedded on iPhone 4 and 4S.

When we perform some shooting and compared directly with iPhone 4S camera results. We derive conclusions that there is no reduction in quality, even at several photos, showing that camera iPhone 5 is better than 4S camera.

Moreover, if we include a Panorama mode for comparison. Maybe for other smartphones, this feature has become their standard, but in the iOS ecosystem, this feature is fairly new. Previously, in order to do this, we need additional applications from third parties.

Apple also changes the type of earset to a new one called ear-pod. Earpod has a unique design and following the shape of your ear bones, with speaker cone made sticking up into the ear cavity, giving impressions which more lively sound.
