I owned an iPhone 5 before this and this 5s is much faster. It is easy to use, great battery life. I have not had one single thing happen with this phone since I bought it months ago. I will always be an apple phone lover.

Best phone, camera, internet access, and texting of all the phones I've owned. It's the perfect size for everything. Big phones just don't easily fit where this phone just drops in, i.e., back pockets, coat pockets, center console, etc. Will have this one for a long time.

I traded from android to iPhone two years ago and haven't been let down yet. The battery life is great and the camera looks great. And the LTE is much appreciated!

Have had for a month. Had the iPhone 5 previously. Gave to my daughter for an upgrade. The battery life to me is better. Runs faster. Screen, pics, and videos are clearer.

Great phone, very fast, never freezes, the camera is great, I use it very frequently and the quality of the images is great. Internet browsing is great especially with the LTE. Battery charge lasts for two days if the phone is not used frequently otherwise it lasts a full day even when I use the GPS on long trips.

Wow this phone is amazing! I am still finding new things this phone can do everyday & I've only had it for just over a month! I highly recommend this phone and Apple products in general. My next computer/laptop will be an Apple just because of how satisfied I am with their iPhone 5s. If I had to give any negatives in regards to Apple or this phone, it would be the price. However, I got a great deal because Best Buy had a deal earlier in the year that all you had to do was give your phone number and when you come back to get a new phone by Dec. 31st, you get a $50 gift card towards it! They have done this deal the last two years & they even ran it this summer. So I ended up getting two phones (I have a shared plan) for $100 instead of $100 each! I love the great deals at Best Buy especially when I don't have a lot of extra spending money.

Got the 5s for my daughter for Christmas, she loves it! And we've had no problem with it. Battery life is good and memory is good for what she uses the phone for. Love apple sharing and restrictions that I can make. She can't even download an app without my approval, much less spend money.

I bought this phone for another member of my family. It was a good step up from the 4S for someone that wants a larger screen than the 4S but feels that the iPhone 6 may be too big. This is a great choice for a kid or perhaps someone who really doesn't need everything the 6 offers. It's a really nice phone - and of course being an iPhone, it's a very stable phone that will give you years of use.

Had every Apple IPhone since they were 1st produced until 1 ½ years ago switched to Samsung Galaxy Note II, loved the size of the screen, but had to many settings, and was not as easy to use as my IPhones. I love the everything about the Apple IPhone 5S, easier to utilize and it works better with my IMac - 27, IPod and generally is a better fit due to ICloud. The old saying there is no "I" in team, lol, well yes there is if you have Apple products. Seriously, I would definitely recommend the IPhone 5S to everyone!!

The i5s was bar far my favorite phone. Its an extremely durable phone, I don't want to mention how many times I have dropped it, but every time it got nothing more than a minor scratch.
I would def. recommend this phone to a friend or fam member.

The iphone 5s is a very good phone. I bought it for my daughter who likes it.
The only problem is that the battery life is too short. She finds that she has to charge it during the day. The good thing is that with all the apps and email and texting that you can do, it is a piece of technology that is indispensable in her life. We have had no problems with the phone as far as operating it.

Iphone just keeps getting better and better. While the iOs is not much different from the upgrade on the 4s, the new phone is smaller, sleeker, and comes with a greater camera. The thumbprint access is genius.
