    Got this phone on a Black Friday promotion. The touch ID is extremely handy. The camera is awesome.

    I absolutely love this iPhone, the gold sleek cover makes it look so great. The camera is great. Apple did a great job with this phone, it doesn't freeze up on me. I absolutely recommend it.

    There's not a whole lot to say about it, it's a modern phone. The onboard camera takes great pictures and video, but struggles in lowlight. Apps run fine on it provided you don't update to the most recent iso versions, which is the reason I docked a star. I find it hard to believe that a multi-billion dollar company couldn't find ways to make so called "obsolete" technologies more reliable after software updates. I don't regret this purchase though.

    I bought the phone for $150 dollars with the two year activation which is a great value for this phone. It is a huge upgrade from the original iphone 4 that I had. It is super fast and the camera is great. Didn't think I would notice a difference between the screen size from the 4 but the there is definitely a difference. Great phone, I love it!

    I've had the 3GS, 4s and now the 5s. And it keeps getting better and better. Apple never a fails when it comes to their mobile devices. Easy to use. I'm not a real techie person so this phone is very easy to get used to. I don't like the BIG android phones. I hardly notice when this phone is in my pocket. Smooth, sleek and light weight.

    I have nothing bad to say about the iPhone 5S. The fingerprint sensor works, iOS 7 is fine (don't believe it if people say it's terrible...it's an OS and, like everything, it's not 100% perfect) and the camera takes some pretty nice pictures (although my old camera sucked - not an iPhone). I've used an Android phone and it was TERRIBLE! The lack of OS support on the android phone meant that I got one supported OS upgrade after a couple months before HTC decided they'd rather support newer phones (which is understandable, I guess, but it sucks when you have to use a phone for 2 years that isn't being actively supported by the manufacturer for OS updates). In contrast, I think Apple will support this phone for 3-4 years with all of the upcoming updates to iOS (although some features may not be supported as the phone ages). All in all, buy this phone. I doubt you will be disappointed!

    It is a great phone as a package. People may strive for a larger phone but this phone is an optimum sized device that I prefer. It has a beautiful sleek design and very light in weight. And above all these it comes with an awesome operating system of Apple.

    This was purchased as a 4s replacement and I'm very happy with the upgrade. The import/restore of all info from the old phone was easy and went as smooth as expected. I tend to play a lot of games, so the battery life is as you would expect... extremely short. Charging it from a complete drain a couple times a day is not uncommon. My only knock is the same one I've had for all versions so far, and its a knock against Apple more than this specific phone.... LET ME DELETE APPS I NEVER USE!

    This newest version of iphone just improves on the old, in a good way. The screen is brighter, runs very fast, for us non-tech type people, apple keeps things simple and very easy to use. This is especally true if you own other apple products. If you own an apple computer or iPad, don't consider any other phone.

    Purchased this phone as an upgrade from iPhone 4. Major difference in functionality. Love that you can use pages and numbers for business and everyday functions. Sleek design and excellent camera quality. User friendly phone for all tech levels.

    Great phone, but not much change

    As an iPhone 5 user upgrading to the iPhone 5S, there isn't much difference in design. The spec is improved, but not noticeable from day to day usage. The camera is slightly better than the iPhone 5, just slightly. Battery life last the whole day through normal usage, having about an hour use of web browsing and some text and push e-mails. The big draw back is, the 'new' iOS7 isn't much new, same function as iOS6, just with a new UI redesign and made the calendar much worse.

    I use this phone for everything and it works like a charm. I upgraded from the iPhone 4 and the 5s is a lot faster in every aspect. The camera is ten times clearer. I am very happy with this phone.

    I prefer iPhones over Android models anyway but the 5s is a nice improvement to previous models. The typical iPhone features I've come to know and love with the benefit of longer battery life and a bigger screen size. It's also super fast!

    I had the iPhone4 for three years and finally decided to move up in the world when my 4 couldn't handle ios7. The 5s has a beautiful picture and is quick. Great camera, too. I'm sure there are many things that this phone can do that I'm not aware of yet, so I'm looking forward to learning more about it.
