Not as customisable as Android. There are very few changes in the UI & the features available are much less compared to other leading phones in the market like Samsung Galaxy Note 2
Selected optimised apps and games for the 4inch display
Maps
Taller screen might be a bit uncomfortable for a few
IOS is starting to look dated
Maps and Navigation is of very poor quality outside the US
Limited features with its Maps app, No major improvements in the platform experience
Undeniably, the iPhone 5 is the most highly anticipated smartphone of the year – rightfully so considering that this sixth-generation sees one major design overhaul! For some time now, the competition has been leaping over the iPhone 4S’ specs sheet, ...

Amazingly thin and light, Bigger, more vibrant screen, Fast 4G LTE speeds, Very good battery life, Improved camera, Facebook integration and easy photo sharing,

Abstract: As I wrote last week, I preordered my Apple iPhone 5 for $820 (full price to keep my Verizon unlimited LTE data) and after spending all day with it I have to say that it was completely worth it. Like all of you, I have seen photos of the iPhone 5, but you...
