iPhone 5: bigger, lighter, thinner and LTE

 

Finally here. As we were announced several days ago, on Wednesday Apple introduced its new iPhone 5 in San Francisco. The new smartphone , but is larger than its predecessor, it is also thinner and lighter. The phone now has new cameras , a better processor, and LTE has been redesigned connector. Let us examine this in detail.

The screen

Without doubt the biggest change in the new generation of the iPhone is its screen. As we have said repeatedly, the iPhone 5 breaks the traditional scheme of 3.5 inches of his brothers and comes equipped with a 4-inch screen, which allows for an extra row of apps on the home screen. As might be expected, the screen uses the great technology of the Retina display and has a resolution of 1136 × 640 pixels with a density of 326 pixels per inch and a 16:9 aspect ratio.
Phil Schiller, Apple's vice president of marketing, said that the screen is more accurate in the industry. "His touch sensors are integrated into the display itself. We removed a layer and sharpness Amend. This is the world's most advanced display, and could not be more proud of her, "concluded.
Actually what Apple has done is remarkable. Not only increased the size, but even made ​​the device is 20% lighter than the iPhone 4S giving a weight of 112 grams and thickness reduction by 18%, lowering it to 7.6 millimeters. The company also says that the body of the device is made ​​of aluminum and glass.

The hardware

The iPhone 5 uses the new Apple A6 processor, which as said is twice as fast as the A5 processor that carries the iPhone 4S. Obviously this will make your phone much faster, but also allow us to enjoy more quality graphics applications and video games in 3D will probably not work on other models.
Another of the best of iPhone 5 is its main camera, which carries an 8 megapixel sensor capable of capturing pictures with a resolution of up to 3264 × 2445 pixels and the capture rate has been increased by 40%. Of course, the new camera has a panorama mode, although this is something that some apps already do on other platforms.
Regarding the front camera is still ideal for use with FaceTime and can even record video up to Full HD (1080p), but remember that the maximum resolution of a 720p FaceTime. System is improved face detection and image stabilization, and we can make catches while we are recording a video.
The iPhone 5 also brings a level of connectivity improvements, and now supports HSPA +, DC-HSDPA and LTE aforementioned, besides the traditional WiFi. All this is possible because the battery of the device that allows us to speak for eight hours on a 3G or 4G LTE, we can sail for 10 hours via WiFi, we also have 10 hours of video playback or we can listen to music for 40 hours straight. If we leave the phone in standby mode, the range is 225 hours.
Remember we talked about a change in the dock? Yes, of course that has changed. Good thing you do not have to discard your old accessories that will sell an adapter to connect to the Lightning. What is Lightning? So is the new digital connector of the iPhone 5, and it's great because it is reversible. As you know, a USB connector must be plugged into the USB in some way, right? As for Lightning that's no problem, since you can connect accessories in it in one way and another. Not many details about it yet, but with this insurance and you're getting an idea of ​​how it will work.
