Apple iPhone 5

Feature Set of Apple iPhone 5

The iOS operating system is getting old and has some issues, including crashes, glitches and the disappointing Maps app. The larger display is great though – and we look forward to seeing 4G in the near future (although it is missing out on NFC support).

• So much more than before. And so much less, too.

A remarkably slim design that still makes room for a larger display and a faster chip. Ultra fast wireless that doesn't sacrifice battery life. And all-new headphones designed to sound great and fit comfortably. So much went into this iPhone. So you could get even more out of it.

• All new design. The thinnest, lightest, fastest iPhone ever.

Thin, sleek, and very capable.

It’s hard to believe a phone so thin could offer so many features: a larger display, a faster chip, the latest wireless technology, an 8MP iSight camera, and more. All in a beautiful aluminum body designed and made with an unprecedented level of precision. iPhone 5 measures a mere 7.6 millimeters thin and weighs just 112 grams.That’s 18 percent thinner and 20 percent lighter than iPhone 4S. The only way to achieve a design like this is by relentlessly considering (and reconsidering) every single detail — including the details you don’t see.

• 4 inch Retina Display.

It's not just bigger. It's just right.

More display means more to see.

Anyone can make a larger smartphone display. But if you go large for large’s sake, you end up with a phone that feels oversize, awkward, and hard to use. iPhone 5 features a 4-inch display designed the right way: it’s bigger, but it’s the same width as iPhone 4S. So everything you've always done with one hand — typing on the keyboard, for instance — you can still do with one hand. On a larger canvas that lets you see more of every web page. More of your inbox. More events on your calendar. Even more apps on your Home screen.

It’s more vibrant, too.

This isn't just a larger display. It’s a larger Retina display. At 326 pixels per inch, it has a pixel density so high your eye can’t distinguish individual pixels. And as stunning as the Retina display is on the iPhone 4S, this one gives you 18 percent more pixels for an impressive 1136-by-640 resolution. Colors get a boost, too, with color saturation that’s 44 percent greater than before. So with iPhone 5, the games you play, the words you read, the images you see, and the apps you love look and feel incredibly vivid and lifelike. For big-time entertainment, iPhone 5 lets you watch widescreen HD video in all its glory — without letter boxing.

• Ultra fast wireless.

LTE. The right way.

You rely on your iPhone. So a thin, light design and outstanding battery life are important to you. But so is a fast data connection. LTE wireless technology is built for speed, but adding it to a phone can create bulk and drain battery life quickly. iPhone 5 does LTE the right way, optimized for better battery life and designed for ultra fast connectivity in a thin profile. The very things you want most from your smartphone.

Next-generation cellular and wireless connectivity.

iPhone 5 supports more networks all over the world. That includes advanced networks such as HSPA, HSPA+, and DC-HSDPA. Browse, download, and stream content at ultra fast speeds. Dual-band 802.11n wireless connectivity accelerates your Wi-Fi experience, too — up to 150 Mbps.

• A6 Chip.

Faster CPU performance.

With the new A6 chip, just about everything you do on iPhone 5 is noticeably faster — up to twice as fast compared with the A5 chip. So apps launch, web pages load, and email attachments appear almost instantly.

Faster graphics.

The A6 chip also offers graphics performance that’s up to twice as fast as the A5. So you can power through graphics-intensive apps and games. And enjoy higher frame rates for smoother, more realistic game play.

Even better battery life.

Not only is the A6 chip custom designed to be fast, it’s custom designed to work with iOS 6 to be extremely power efficient. So even at its accelerated speed, iPhone 5 has more than enough battery power to last throughout the day — up to 8 hours of browsing on a cellular connection, up to 8 hours of talk time, and up to 10 hours of video playback time.

• iSight Camera

Panorama.

iPhone is the most popular camera in the world. For good reason. Photos look so stunning, it’s hard to believe they were taken with a mobile phone. And everything that made the iSight camera in iPhone 4S the world’s favorite is now on iPhone 5 — and then some. The new panorama feature lets you capture everything from a family reunion group photo to a jaw-dropping shot of the Grand Canyon. With one smooth motion you can shoot up to an impressive 240 degrees. The gyroscope, A6 chip, and Camera app work together to create one seamless, high-resolution panorama up to 28 megapixels.

Even better features.

The Camera app also features improvements including 40 percent faster photo capture, better low-light performance, and improved noise reduction. So you can snap more shots with more detail and clarity than ever before. View photos taken with iPhone 5

Enhanced HD video recording.

Imagine sidesplitting, adventure-filled, must-see flicks produced by you and shot on iPhone 5. Record stunning 1080p HD video with the iSight camera. Improved video stabilization helps prevent shaky footage. Face detection for up to 10 faces means everyone can have a moment in the spotlight. You can even take still photos as you record, so you can capture small moments while shooting a big one.

FaceTime HD camera.

You use the front-facing camera on iPhone 5 to make FaceTime video calls. And now those calls can happen over a cellular connection if Wi-Fi isn't available.5 The quality of FaceTime video calls is so surprising, it’s as if you’re in the same room with whoever’s on the other end. You can also use the front camera for taking self-portraits or recording 720p HD video.

• iOS 6.

The world's most advanced mobile operating system.

With its easy-to-use interface, amazing features, and rock-solid stability. iOS is the foundation of iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, and even as others try to catch up. The technologies and features built into iOS keep your Apple devices years ahead.


The foundation of iPhone.
At the core of every iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch is iOS. It includes all the built-in apps you use every day and all the intuitive technology -- like Multi-Touch and Siri -- that makes iPhone so advanced.7 With every free iOS update comes even more capability for your devices. You’ll find the latest version, iOS 6, already installed on iPhone 5. So right out of the box. You get more than 200 new features to make the things you do every day even better.

Elegant and intuitive interface.

You know how to use iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch from the first time you pick them up. That’s because the revolutionary Multi‑Touch interface in iOS was designed for your finger. And the simple, beautiful Home screen is the easiest place to start, from built-in apps to over 800,000 more apps and games available on the App Store From making a FaceTime call to editing a video with iMovie, everything you touch is easy, intuitive, and fun.

Amazing features and built-in application.

iOS and an ever-expanding collection of features and built-in apps make iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch even more powerful, innovative, and fun to use.

iCloud. Your content. On all your devices.

iCloud stores your music, photos, apps, mail, contacts, calendars, documents, and more and wirelessly pushes them to all your devices, so if you buy a song, take a photo, or edit a calendar event on your iPad. iCloud makes sure it appears on your Mac, iPhone, and iPod touch, too. You don’t have to do a thing. 

Easy to update.

iOS updates are free, and they’re available to download wireless on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch the moment they’re released. Your device even alerts you when it’s time to get the latest version, so you won’t miss out on all the amazing features in new updates.

• All-new Lightning connector.Smaller, Smarter, Durable, Reversible.

A new way to get connected.
Making iPhone 5 thinner and lighter required a pivotal change: replacing the 30-pin connector with something newer, smaller, and better. Introducing the Lightning connector, it features an all-digital, eight-signal design that’s significantly more durable than the 30-pin connector. Another brilliant feature of Lightning-- It’s reversible, which means there’s no wrong way to plug in the cable.


Lightning to 30-pin Adapter.
Soon many iPhone accessories will be Lightning compatible. But if you have one that depends on the 30-pin connector, you can still connect it to your iPhone 5. Simply use a Lightning to 30-pin Adapter.

• Maps.

Maps designed by Apple.

The new Maps app gives you a better way to find your way. Map elements are vector based, which means graphics and text are incredibly sharp, even when you zoom in. Pan around, and you’ll instantly notice how smooth and responsive Maps is. Need directions from Point A to Point B? Maps not only shows you how to get there, it tells you out loud, turn by turn, maps also gives you real-time traffic information and reroutes you to avoid delays. For a completely new perspective, switch to Flyover and explore major metro areas from above with photo-realistic, interactive 3D views.

• Siri. Even more of what you're asking for.

Just ask Siri.

Siri is the intelligent assistant that helps you get things done, just by asking. Talk to Siri as you would to a person-- “Do I need an umbrella?” or -- “Any modern art museums around here?” or -- “Where’s the closest ATM?” ,Siri not only understands what you say, it knows what you mean. It figures out the right apps to use to find the right answer. Then, just like a personal assistant, Siri provides you with the information you need.

New Siri features.

With iOS 6, Siri understands more questions, knows more answers, and gives you a lot more to talk about. Ask Siri about sports scores and stats, where to eat, what movies to see -- even ask Siri to make Facebook posts or tweet for you, and Siri is fluent in more languages, so it does more things in more countries. 

Well just update this, due to hectic schedules. Maybe tomorrow. Thanks

 

Battle of Pixels

Nokia 808 Pureview(41 MP) VS. Samsung Galaxy S4(13MP)

[MAIN CAMERAS]

NOKIA 808 Pureview:

     

Pros:

The Nokia 808 PureView's excellent, envelope-pushing 41-megapixel camera will satisfy photo enthusiasts. It also has strong battery life, an HDMI port, and steady call quality.

Cons: 

A slower processor doesn't match the 808 PureView's camera prowess, and it's saddled with a bulky body, a cramped virtual keyboard, and software that's behind the curve.

MAIN VIEW:

Even if you're only interested in its sharp, innovative camera, the Nokia 808 PureView's weak Symbian Belle OS and slower processor make it a questionable investment considering the price, especially since Symbian's days are numbered.

CAMERA REVIEW:

The PureView's photo quality lives up to the hype. Yeah! The camera does have a 41-megapixel sensor and it is overkill for a smartphone camera -- at least on the surface. While it actually does do pretty well at resolving detail when you use that full resolution, that was never really the point. It's Nokia's oversampling technology that turns those 41 megapixels into 3, 5, or 8 megapixels that's important.

 The PureView's lens features a large f2.4 aperture with a 26mm focal length for 16:9 and 28mm for 4:3 aspect ratio photos. The combination along with the large sensor size will give you some nice background blur for close-ups; the PureView can focus as close as 6 inches from a subject. (Add in the lossless zoom and you can get very close to what you're shooting and still get great fine detail.)

The 5-megapixel PureView setting gives you access to a 3x lossless digital zoom. Though you could use it for zooming in on a subject you physically can't get closer to, it's more likely you'll use it to adjust your framing.

There is no HDR option available for improving high-contrast scenes or backlit subjects. You can shoot bracketed exposures (three or five), though, and use software to combine them into a single photo with improved highlight and shadow detail. Unfortunately, it doesn't take them all that fast, so you'll need to put the camera on a tripod or other support to get the best results.

Though there's no direct control over shutter speed, by turning the ND filter off or on you can speed it up to freeze action (top) or create a long exposure up to 2.7 seconds (bottom).

If the natural colors of the PureView's Normal setting aren't vibrant enough for you, there is a Vivid option, too.

As long as you're able to keep your ISO low, the fine detail in macro shots is remarkably good. This is a 100 percent crop of the inset image.

The 808 produces very nice, natural colors. Exposure is generally good, but highlights have a tendency to blow out.

Conclusion:

If you're the type to buy a phone for its camera, the Nokia 808 PureView will give you all it's got. A photographer's smartphone, its multiple modes will suit casual shooters while also giving enthusiasts much more structured control. Add in some accessories, like a portable tripod, and you've got a satisfying camera that can also make calls and check your e-mail. While it sounds good in theory, the 808 PureView still won't replace a serious photographer's DSLR, though it will be more conveniently on-hand for relaxed photo opportunities. The 808 PureView's strong build quality and willingness to take risks in camera innovation demonstrate Nokia's promise as a continued Windows Phone handset maker, despite shaky financials and a clouded future.

SAMSUNG Galaxy S4:

Pros: 
The Samsung Galaxy S4 has Android 4.2.2, a fantastic camera, a powerful quad-core processor, and software solutions for just about every scenario -- including working as a TV/DVR remote. It's also comfortable in hand and has NFC, a user-replaceable battery, and a microSD storage slot.

Cons: 
Its screen is dimmer than competitors', its plastic design gives it a cheaper look than its rivals, and we found the Galaxy S4's power button turned on at undesirable times. Not all camera modes work as promised, and a long list of software features can quickly overwhelm and confuse.

MAIN VIEW:
Its laundry list of features require time and effort to truly master, but the Galaxy S4 is the top choice for anyone looking for a big-screen, do-everything smartphone.  

CAMERA REVIEW:

Samsung has absolutely packed its camera full of new and existing features, and I'll admit that I had more fun testing them all out than I imagined I would. When it comes down to it, though, my smartphone photography needs are simple. I want to whip open the camera app and take a really good picture or video, fast.

Toss aside all the fancy modes and the Galaxy S4's 13-megapixel sensor is good. Very good. No, not every photo came out perfectly when I took picture after test picture in full automatic mode, whether because of off-target photo rendering for a shot or because sometimes you just can't overcome bad lighting. Overwhelmingly, though, I was happy with the pictures I took, and the excellent image quality inspired me to snap and share even more photos.

The jump from the Galaxy S3's 8-megapixel camera to the GS4's 13-megapixel camera makes a huge difference in photo size, of course. I also noticed that images I had perfectly focused still looked terrific after I cropped them, and after they had resized to fit the phone's screen. I checked them out both on the phone and again on my laptop's larger screen, both in full resolution and also resized.

I cropped this full-resolution shot of a pink flower at its focal point.

Samsung incorporated interface elements from its 16-megapixel Samsung Galaxy Camera, like the onscreen menu options at the top of the screen for dual-shot mode and for settings that include night mode and flash.

Creative camera settings:

Of all of the Galaxy S4's five kooky new camera settings and modes -- out of 13 total modes including auto -- dual-shot mode is my surprise favorite. Like the same feature on the LG Optimus G Pro, dual-shot mode uses both the front- and rear-facing cameras to create a composite photo or video.

Drama is the mode you want when you have a well-planned out action sequence you'd like to take from a distance. If you position the camera right and keep it still, it compiles a series of still images into a single frame, keeping the background the same. You can check the box to add or remove which frames you'd like to include. I failed the first handful of times I tried using this mode. It helps to back away from the subject and plot your shot for subjects moving in a single direction.

I had the same trouble making the Eraser mode work, this mode compares five pictures and plays the game of "which of these things is not like the other." If a person or object clutters a few frames, but not all, the GS4 camera offers to help you remove the offender. As with Drama mode, Eraser mode requires a certain amount of premeditation to successfully use, and as of this review, I still haven't been able to make it work in real-world tests, even if someone deliberately walked through the frame.

Sound and Shot is one mode I really warmed up to in theory; consider it an audio postcard you'll send to someone. Instead of captioning the image, you leave up to nine seconds of a voice recording that's attached to the photo. Unfortunately, it's completely useless unless the person you're sending it to also has a GS4.

If you've ever wanted to turn your photos or short videos into animated GIFs, the Animated Photo mode is your tool. It lets you isolate any part of a mostly static video, which you "draw" on to select the part you'll want to animate or freeze. If you keep your camera steady, as I did in a video of waving flags, the tool suggests areas to animate. It looked cool and worked pretty well. Just keep in mind that you need to pick this mode first to use the tool, and that the Galaxy S4 won't save your original video in the gallery.

If you're going for a humorous or stylized video, you can play around with high-speed or slow-motion video settings. It makes sense that you can't convert a video you've already shot in another mode (like standard). In addition to these newbie features, best photo for a group, burst shot, HDR, and panorama.

Whether Samsung originated the extra camera feature or introduced it after a competitor, there's one Google Android goody that's conspicuously missing, and that's Photo Sphere, which lets you take a 360-degree panoramic image. A Samsung representative suggested that there may be a conflict with the Galaxy S4's hardware capabilities, but we'll need to confirm that's the real reason for Photo Sphere's absence.
