The iPhone 5S is clearly the master of the largest mobile ecosystem around. The iPhone 5S experience is pretty refined, mature and intuitive.
Aptly called the future-proof iPhone, the new iPhone now has a 64-bit "A7" system-on-chip (SoC) inside along with a new coprocessor dedicated to handling the motion sensors provide the potential for new directions.
While benefits for the average user regarding 64-bit chip will initially be minimal and mainly involve keeping iOS 7 up to speed. However, in the future, a 64-bit chip will also help bring the operating systems on Apple's tablets and mobiles closer to the PC experience. The transition to 64-bit processors first started on desktops around 2005 with a clear goal to allow for more RAM. 32-bit systems are limited to supporting only around 3GB of RAM, and 64-bit systems allow for 4GB and more.
Hence, despite its dual-core processor and only 1GB of RAM, performance tests show that Apple's iPhone 5s positively overshadows every other smartphone on the market, including quad- and eight-core Android phones.
The phone comes with a Touch ID system, which is terrific, faster, more secure and more accurate than entering a PIN. It is also incredibly accurate and is not prone to errors. Apple's fingerprint scanner takes about 10 seconds to learn and store a fingerprint, and the learning process is as simple as touching different parts of your finger to the home button repeatedly until the scanner has saved enough surface area to account for the majority of your print.
