Best build quality and finish - iPhone 5SThere's hardly any doubt about the class and build quality offered by Apple's iPhone 5S. The iPhone 5S has been designed for everyday use and to just work, not something that needs to be maintained. The phone has an aluminium case and glass screen, retaining the premium look and feel for the latest model. It is comfortable to hold, measuring 124x59x7.6mm and weighing only 112g. In terms of button allocation, the new iPhone features a power button, with a SIM card slot on the right, a ringer on/off button and volume controls on the left. There's a headphone jack, microphone, Lightning charging port and speaker on the bottom of the device. The difference between the iPhone 5S and its predecessor is the use of sapphire crystal in its home button. The change means that the home button can now double as a fingerprint sensor. Moreover, while the iPhone 5 was only available in black or white, the iPhone 5S is available in three colour options: with gold or silver backs and a white front, or with a grey back and a black front.
Along with a silver edition with white glass surfaces and bright silver trim, a new gold version (above) pairs white surfaces with metallic gold trim, with a finish that appears to subtly shift between a tinted silver into a rich gold. Apple also offers a series of five leather form-fit cases ($39 each) for the three metallic finishes of iPhone 5s, in yellow, beige, blue, brown, black and Product(Red).
