New Delhi: Known for its quality and innovative edge, the US based Apple Inc enjoys huge fan following in the high-end global smartphone market ever since the first iPhone was launched in 2007. According to the latest figures, iPhone continues to expand on its lead as the most popular smartphone in the U.S., taking more than 40 per cent of the American market.
As customary every year the company launches upgraded products to draw in more consumers. This year Apple released the top-end iPhone 5S and a cheaper iPhone 5C at an event in California. Out of them the iPhone 5s is the best iPhone that Apple has ever made.
The new iPhone 5s is an impressive improvement over the iPhone 5, even though both phones feature the same form factor. The iPhone 5s features the same 4-inch Retina display and chamfered diamond-cut edges, but it now has few surprising additions. The iPhone 5s is powered by a new A7 processor -- with CPU performance 40 times faster and GPU performance 56 times faster than the original iPhone. To supplement the A7 chip, the release of the iPhone 5s also comes with Apple's new M7 chip, which can continuously measure motion data for the newest generation of health and fitness apps.
On the other hand, the new iPhone 5C improves upon the features in its predecessor, the iPhone 5. To make it more affordable, Apple has replaced the all-aluminum unibody enclosure of the iPhone 5 with a reinforced polycarbonate solution. The iPhone 5c will also release in five different colors instead of two (black and white), including blue, green, yellow, pink and white. Inside the shell of the new iPhone 5c, most of the specs look identical to those in the iPhone 5. Running on the same A6 chip, the iPhone 5c features the same 4-inch Retina display, the same 8-megapixel camera with 2.4 aperture and single-LED flash, and equipped with iOS 7.
Overall, the latest generation of iPhones is gorgeous to look at, satisfying to hold, superfast to work with, an 8 MP camera and packs in some incredible software features. Let us take a some good iPhones available in the market right now:
