a what's up guys in
PBST here
0:27
and this is not the
first iPhone 5s your view and probably won't be the last but
0:31
sometimes in use the
device for a while
0:33
longer than the typical
review period for tech reviewers
0:37
you get a little bit
better sense if what you like the device for what you
0:40
don't like it for
0:41
and just a little
tidbits in quirks about it and overall a general idea
0:45
how well you like to use
it not exactly what is good news about
0:48
this is an iPhone 5s
your you from a perspective the person who uses a lot of
0:52
Google services
0:53
I've been videos about I
was before this is my first iPhone
0:57
review believe it or not
this took me like seven iPhones actually do a review
1:00
of it but
1:01
but any further ado
let's get right on it so this is the iPhone 5s
1:05
in space great comes in
three colors but is the one I personally thought was my
1:09
favorite
1:09
its justice from Ilya as
the rest the iPhones out there it's running I was 7
1:13
it has that familiar
rave icons like every other iPhone
1:16
and is just too small in
fact let me start by saying that
1:19
yes i'm aware. at the
iPhone looks very small
1:23
in my hands ask because
is small on my hands
1:26
Samsung Galaxy Note 3 is
a fun FK for a while now and it feels free after for me
1:29
to hold but it's a
bigger than
1:31
average phone for most
people and as a 5.7 inch display
1:35
but to me it doesn't
feel the extreme but a smaller
1:38
more common option I'll
probably see more frequently is the Samsung Galaxy s4
1:43
is a pretty popular
phone has a 5-inch display
1:46
and has that same
general look to it as the Galaxy Note 3 but it takes up less
1:50
space and involves
reaching the corners a bit less
1:52
but even smaller than
that is the Moto X this is one my favorite devices right
1:57
now
1:57
and it's very compact
and stuffs a 4.7 inch display
2:01
into a body that's not a
much bigger than the iPhone's I can grab the whole
2:04
thing
2:05
but even this phone
start to look big when you compare it to you
2:08
the iPhone 5 s this
phone has a 4-inch display
2:12
so it's easily the
smallest I've the displays on any flagship by any company
2:16
right now
2:17
but it's also one of the
most compact mobile devices period
2:21
which is something
Apple's really proud of in this phone now playing on the
2:24
device is really light
2:25
really easy to hold and
people can reach all four corners a display with one hand
2:29
although I think people
could do that on a four and a half inch display to
2:32
but this is also one of
the most fragile feeling phones out there
2:36
it's it's it's actually
fragile it's really extremely well bill
2:39
me at a premium
materials like these tc1 its gun metal in their
2:43
very tightly put
together there's no creaking or any twisting
2:46
anything like that but
the lack of any curves plus the glass on the back like
2:50
the Nexus 4
2:51
make it feel like I
better not drop this device like if I drop it from a few
2:55
inches up
2:56
it feels like it's very
delicate and vulnerable to scratches
2:59
like I should be putting
a case under something other couple things about the
3:02
battery in this device
3:03
it's like we say one
thousand five hundred seventy million power battery
3:06
measurement is pretty
small in fact this entire iPhone
3:10
is about the same size
as the Galaxy Note 3 battery which is over three
3:13
thousand million powers
3:14
so with this having have
to battery size is a note 3
3:17
has its pros has its
cons what are the important prose is at the charges
3:22
very quickly and let's
say it charges lightning-fast
3:25
but the cons are
immediately that the battery doesn't last quite as long
3:29
as any other smartphone
out there with a larger battery now standby times
3:33
are excellent on the
iPhone I could go to sleep with an iPhone at a hundred
3:36
percent battery
3:37
not charge it and would
wake up with ninety-seven percent battery
3:40
that's pretty get an
Android device with a similar size battery
3:44
might be at eighty
percent when you wake up so that's pretty good that I was
3:47
takes good advantage
3:48
love what he thinks you
should be closing in the background you're
3:51
sleeping
3:52
but it doesn't have the
best battery life during actual use in fact it's not
3:56
even quite as good as
the iPhone 5
3:58
at same eighty-five
percent worse than the iPhone 5
4:01
but its it's about the
same battery life as you'd expect from an iPhone so if
4:04
you're coming from
previous generation iPhone
4:07
you'll find too many
surprises here with battery life everything else about the
4:09
hardware though is very
well-crafted we saw this on the iPhone 5 to its solid
4:13
aluminum on sides in the
back
4:15
as awesome buttons that
are precisely crafted so that they don't while blow it
4:18
all which is nice
4:19
also have the laser
etchings to indicate volume up and down the chamfered edges
4:23
are angled
4:24
ever so slightly inwards
the headphone jack in the lane importer on the bottom
4:28
with the precisely
milled speaker holes I mean I don't think it's
4:31
its it's just about how
all this is in such a small package that makes it
4:35
little difficult to appreciate
it all which is why I think HTC One still feels
4:39
just as good in the hand
4:40
speakers on bottom the
iPhone are wanting more interesting parts of it
4:43
expected them to be
really good but check this out there are two
4:46
speaker grills at the
bottom the iPhone that looks great looks like stereo
4:49
speakers
4:50
but it's actually just a
single driver are the right hand side serve echoes
4:54
over to the left hand
side so if you cover up
4:56
the left hand side you
will hear no change in this town really cover up the
4:59
right hand side with the
driver is you can completely
5:02
mute the speaker say
have to be sure not to do that back said I'll give you a
5:05
sample this out
5:18
completely needed only
like we said the iPhone has obviously familiar hardware
5:23
on the outside but what
about the
5:25
inside because that's
where the name change came from between the five
5:28
and the 5s now if you
got the Moto X is a consumer-oriented devices that didn't
5:32
care about specs
5:33
and target the average
consumer way to see the spec sheet
5:36
have the iPhone 5s it
has on paper the same specs as
5:40
literally not even
exaggerating if flagship from 2011 meet the Samsung
5:44
Galaxy S
5:45
to release date April
2011 inside it had a dual core 1.2 gigahertz chip
5:50
1 gigabyte of RAM 32
gigabytes of storage and 8-megapixel camera and a
5:55
sixteen hundred fifty
million power battery
5:57
now meet the iPhone 5s
release date
6:00
couple weeks ago it has
a dual-core 1.3 gigahertz chip
6:04
1 gigabyte of RAM 32
gigabytes of storage and 8-megapixel camera
6:08
and a one thousand five
hundred seventy million power battery so
6:12
this is where Apple does
its absolute best to make sure
6:15
specs don't matter
nearly as much as they used to they control the entire
6:18
experience from hardware
to software
6:20
and has a lot of
optimization going on in the end performance throughout
6:24
I was 7 is pretty snappy
it performs on par with
6:27
just about every other
flagship today that hasn't eight-core chip and double
6:30
the RAM and 20 megapixel
cameras and I was as we know never really required all
6:34
that much resources to
run smoothly and multitask well
6:37
and not you do battery
life like a hunger whilst the stakes so it's not
6:40
really surprised that
the iPhone 5s
6:42
is quite fast special on
compared to older iPhones but how
6:46
is I O S seven well for
me a actually like the look of Iowa 7 release a lot of
6:51
it but its functionality
6:53
is still exactly the
same as I O S six it's essentially a layer of gloss or the
6:59
top
6:59
a visual overall if you
well the motto here is your probably like it
7:03
or learn to like it but
if you don't too bad
7:07
because you just can't
change things you still can customize a lot of things that
7:10
I'm used to being able
to customize outta the box on something like an
7:13
Android phone
7:14
and I was 7 you'll
probably like most in your icons but if you don't like one
7:18
or two or several to bat
you might like the new keyboard but if you don't
7:23
too bad my love the new
stock lock screen or the new dialer all the new
7:28
stock applications
7:29
but if you don't too bad
my biggest gripe with I was seven was actually the
7:32
animation so every time
i unlock the iPhone 5s there's this new animation and
7:36
I 07
7:37
that takes a solid half
a second before lets me do you
7:40
anything on the home
screen and I don't like that at all and that's too bad
7:44
so now anytime I want
unlock the phone and i really know I want to go to the
7:48
second page in axe
7:49
after wait for the
animation to finish before I can do anything because Wallace
7:54
animating and
7:54
on response among
touchscreen still bugs me to this day I wish I could
7:58
change animation speed
to speed up a little bit there's also a lot of weird
8:01
little
8:02
that's a fragmentation
like with the keyboard for example where if the app
8:05
you using
8:05
isn't updated for Iowa 7
it doesn't get to use Apple's new keyboard is the old
8:10
Iowa seven looking
keyword which creates a bit official inconsistency
8:13
and that will I guess be
a bit of a mess into app developers
8:16
get on the case and
update their ass the new OS but overall
8:20
yeah I like the look
over a lot of Iowa 7i think it's quite nice in a lot of
8:23
areas that
8:24
aren't the icons on the
home screen but the functionality I still have problems
8:28
with
8:29
and those still remain
and thats to bed now so this of course I US is still a
8:33
great choice for a lot
of people on that obviously won't change mean ten million
8:36
people bought this phone
the first weekend it was available
8:39
so it's clear that
people love it and want it as a Google service user with
8:42
stuff you know like
Gmail Google Drive
8:45
Google calendar tasks in
cetera you can get most to the core steffi needing get
8:49
away with it from the
App Store so situation
8:51
is really not that bad
at all and then there are of course the few fringe
8:54
benefits have the iPhone
like
8:56
touch ID for example
which is the name for the fancy finger print sensor in the
9:00
home but now the iPhone
9:01
lets you unlock your
phone or act indicate your iTunes purchases
9:05
and you can register up
to ten fingers of course people have also found great
9:08
ways to register things
other than fingers like their toes
9:12
their pets toes and even
other body parts
9:15
and but I it's a cool
feature it works pretty well pretty accurate the most the
9:19
time
9:20
just not that every time
you restart your phone you have to reenter your
9:22
whole iTunes password
before using touch ID an app store again
9:25
no thing and great about
the iPhone is the camera experience
9:29
the camera experience my
pain is made up of two different parts
9:32
it's the quality and
control and there's little to scale I'd say between one and
9:37
10 for quality
9:38
and between one and 10
for control on devices that have 10 added 10 for
9:42
quality like the Lumia
1020 for example
9:44
you can just give it to
remember sunscreen estimate take great photo with
9:47
it
9:48
they'll probably have a
little bit of difficulty but if you get a
9:51
really really easy to
use camera chances are it's not going to take great photos
9:55
so the iPhone strikes a
nice balance because on the scale of one to 10 for
9:59
quality
10:00
surrounding a and scale
of one to 10 for control it's pretty simple but it's the
10:03
easy to use app
10:05
sets another it added 10
and I think that is what makes it a very likable
10:08
Camry keys open it
10:09
with a swipe up from a
shark on the corner and immediately begin to take
10:13
pictures
10:13
characterize the camera
on the back of the iPhone 5s as a very
10:17
fast camera in a much
different ways vast number one because it's very fast
10:21
to take photos and to
process shots
10:23
that number two because
taking a CRC is very quick say don't have to have
10:27
unnecessarily still
subject
10:29
vast number three because
the aperture itself is very fast as wide open I
10:32
believe it's f2.0 or 2.2
10:35
which can be a little
bit softer than the iPhone 5 but still is plenty fasten
10:39
great for low-light
10:40
and again fast because
if the video modes in here you can take
10:43
really really fast 120
frames per second video and slow it down to 30 frames per
10:48
second to get this
possum
10:50
smooth slow motion
effect so this is a very fast camera what I most enjoyed by
10:54
shooting with the 5 S's
camera though was the low light capabilities the thing
10:58
can
10:58
essentially see in the
dark for a lot of the other camera phones I've used
11:01
fall short on but you
can see all the tests as I took
11:05
in the full image link
in the description readler that like button
11:08
well you see you know
low-light shots and regular light shots
11:11
you see at the photos it
takes are really pretty solid colors are very
11:14
accurate like extremely
colorful unsaturated
11:17
the details pretty much
all there was only a little bit softer than the iPhone
11:20
5
11:21
because if the wider
aperture but overall the the shots you get a singer
11:25
very get
11:25
overall though in terms
the quality of photos and videos you get
11:29
and the control you have
over them this is up there in summer the best
11:32
smartphones you can get
to take photos with so yet using the iPhone 5s
11:36
is Jesse you would
expect you get great performance smooth animations throughout
11:40
you get that super
compact form factor and
11:42
excellent build quality
and design and material choices
11:46
and get the usual course
with the relatively new operating system but
11:49
those leader iron out
for you get used to them
11:51
you get that future
proof mess with the new 64-bit architecture
11:55
Apple's new chip in
Apple having control over the whole OS ecosystem
11:59
you have a very reliable
devices almost always works exactly as you'd expect it
12:03
to
12:04
even if you don't like
the way does something you can be confident that
12:06
it'll do it that way
12:08
every single time to get
used to it it's a very familiar device for a lot of
12:11
people
12:12
and probably isn't worth
rushing to upgrade to if you're coming from an
12:15
iPhone 5
12:16
but for many other older
iPhone it's a great choice for all it's worth so the
12:19
other day there are some
things I really like about the iPhone
12:22
and some things that are
really don't like obviously about the iPhone
12:25
that a lot of other people
will probably agree with the display is one the most
12:28
polarizing things to me
12:30
I love the quality of
the display I just wish he was bigger
12:34
and are a lot of things
that I like about the build it's a beautifully
12:36
crafted device it's just
12:38
Liberty small feels a
little bit fragile even know is in fact
12:41
released already know
creek near banning also there are some polarizing things
12:45
about it at the end of
the day though
12:47
I I'm not it big I West
user if you wanna see a for
12:51
dedicated I O S review
or sort of video I'm just me and I OSU free to leave a
12:56
comment below
12:57
what comes up if you
wanna see something like that but either way this is Bennett
13:00
this the iPhone 5s in
space grey thank you for watching your view
13:04
