The UnboxingTN Verdict
out of 100
Exceptionally light and compact, the iPhone 5 is held back by its small battery, slow charging, modest cameras and limited connectivity.
What is good
- Its 112g weight and 7.6mm thickness make it exceptionally light and slim.
- The 4-inch Retina IPS LCD offers 326 ppi.
- iOS 6 provides a coherent software experience.
What is not
- The 1440mAh battery and 5W charging are notably limited.
- The 8MP main camera and 1.2MP selfie camera are modest.
- Wi-Fi 4, Bluetooth 4.0, and no NFC limit connectivity.
