NRM: "The iPhone 5S has been announced at an event in California. Maintaining the same design as the previous generation, following the standard launch cycle set by Apple, the hardware has seen a considerable upgrade."

"Trust me, I know what you’re thinking. I’ve heard it all before. I’ve endured the side-eyed glances, the exasperated gasps, and the endless mockery every time I’ve pulled out my SE since the day I bought it (I can’t remember exactly when, but I vaguely recall The Harlem Shake being popular). As it turns out, apparently I’m the asshole for not wanting to wait outside of an Apple store for three days to spend two weeks’ pay on a phone with slightly better pixel quality and, I dunno, personalized emojis or some other useless crap?"
After the release of iPhone SE, it looks like that Apple has stopped selling the iPhone 5S as the device is not longer visible on Apple's official website. A quick look unveils that the iPhone 5S is replaced by the newly launched iPhone SE.
Is the new iPhone an improvement worth buying over its predecessor?
Apples "Most forward thinking phone yet". Forward thinking huh?
-Looks exactly like the old one.
-Only new feature is a fingerprint scanner
-Still lacks NFC, IR Blaster, full HD screen, optical image stabilization, and even quad core.
-Still charging $399 for 64gb. (you can buy a S4 for $99 and add a 64gb SD card for $40.)
Yeah "forward thinking". Yet it will still sell. iSheep are hilarious.
Apple is going to sell a lot of these can't wait ;)
I prefer to go with the most popular product as long as it doesn't break the bank or hurt the very reason for buying it. Apple are being idiots yet again with the price of a phone. I can't believe we live in a world where you pay more for a phone that has less technology inside than a games console or PC. It just feels backwards and mind boggling especially when you consider a gaming console or computer is a more worthwhile investment that will last many years compared to short life spans of phones. Phones get outdated right away, in fact there are already better phones than the iPhone 5S. I can't believe how much an iPhone costs in the UK compared to US. I will stick with my iPhone 4.
i have a gs3 and iphone 4 as my mp3 im good
Im moving from a 4 to 5s. Can't wait.
