Surely by now there are many of you who think that the iPhone 5 has lagged far behind its competitors. These days we do nothing more than see comparisons that show how apple phone is lagging behind in things like the processor, cameras and "innovation." During the last few weeks we have witnessed the launch of the BlackBerry 10, the HTC One and, more recently, the Samsung Galaxy S4, which already surpass the iPhone 5 in many technical specifications.
But at this point last year there was exactly the same story. In the forums, the followers of the apple posted messages that showed their disappointment when they saw that the iPhone was lagging behind. We cannot forget an important fact: while most of Apple's main rival companies have already shown their cards for this year, the apple still has time to respond with his more than likely «iPhone 5S«, That we do not know exactly when it will see the light.
You will think that since it is an «S» model, instead of an iPhone 6, it will not incorporate great advances. It should be noted that during the presentation of the iPhone 4S the main novelties were reflected in the improvements of its cameras and in the integration of the Siri voice assistant. These two elements were not enough to consider the telephone as "revolutionary". Therefore, the iPhone 5S would need a revolutionary element, a "One More Thing ..." to put Apple back at the top of the rankings.
An analyst from the firm Morgan Stanley has assured this morning in an American television program, that "she is sure that iPhone 5S will introduce a revolutionary feature that will surprise everyone ». The Galaxy S4 has failed to revolutionize, analysts say.
To this information we can add another piece of information that we cannot forget: iOS 7 promises to bring a radical facelift, following the firing of iOS father Scott Forstall. Therefore, this revolutionary element could be hidden in the software of the device and not so much in the hardware.
We will probably have to wait until late summer to learn more about how Apple will innovate.

I think I am one of the biggest fans of the Iphone, but I think that it has not only been left behind, if not very far behind. Why?
- They have always had an enviable update service and now? they get silly updates, which do not correct coverage problems, 3g, battery consumption…. now they are more concerned with removing the jailbreak, rather than polishing the product well
- The thing about the maps is a botch. It seems superb to me that they don't depend on Google, but until you offer a suitable service, do not dispense with something that is important.
- Apple has the resources to do great things and now I see it stagnant, it has been passed over. I sincerely expected more.
I would like them to do like the Ipad, the Imac, the Ipod, the Macbook ……. that offer alternatives, that there is not only a model with a screen.
Many "purists" of the Iphone, that we have from 2007 with it, I think they have stagnated, everything always tires the same, many of us want more.
- I am lucky to have the Z, the Note2 and have tested the new One for 10 days, which is not yet for sale. And they all go over it, but widely.
Ios for me is the best system, but it is already a bit outdated. The current operation of Android, based on putting beastly features, have managed to debug it and we can no longer say that it is finer and stuff.
I think those of us who like this brand are the ones who have to sanction Apple's conformism a bit and let the potential it has be noticed and make it a benchmark again.
I honestly see it now far from being a pioneer again and closer to becoming the new Nokia. Regarding IOS it is easy, because with the Jailbreak, there are wonderful apps that cover the shortcomings of the current system. But it seems that they are not about to give it a good facelift.
I think the 5s will be the same, with a better 12 mpx processor and little else. The analysts do not trust me anything, they know that talking about Apple they sell but in reality they have no idea of the plans of this brand.
I hope they get an iPhone with more variety and don't make me switch to Android, which is a system that doesn't make me very funny.
All the best
I think Apple lagged behind from the iPhone 4S xq at that time an iPhone 5 should have been presented and not a 4S, and now it should be presenting an iPhone 6 with a screen that is large and proportional to a new iOS and taking many of the ideas of the jailbreak, but while those of Apple are so closed we will have to see an iPhone 5S of the same dimensions with a better processor, while the other companies are already thinking of something better
And that this time Samsung with the S4 has evolved the same as Apple from 4 to 4S. A little bit of processor, a little bit of camera, a little bit of RAM and the rest SOFTWARE, a lot of SOFTWARE
and more screen, more sensors, screen that does not even have to be touched, wireless charging ... nope, I see this as more like the jump that the iPhone 3gs gave to the 4 with its retina, gyroscope, etc. etc.
Wireless charging but with an extra accessory not standard, and there is no need to touch, you have already seen reviews of course that if it must be touched, more sensors for 2 or 3 more, more screen for 2 millimeters, that is not an advance the truth And so they criticize the iPhone, that part of the hardware is not everything, I think everyone has fallen with the fact that if they tell me that it has more processor, the device is much better.
If they tell us that it has a temperature sensor, is something new okay but is it really useful? They all say to innovate but not even they know that they should innovate
I think that the iPhone 5 is becoming outdated as it happened with the 4S because its competitors, S4, Xperia Z, HTC One, are from a different generation, as you say in the entry. But if IOS 7 presents a notable and substantial improvement, the iPhone 5 will be unrivaled, not even with the new phones, since in my opinion it is currently very difficult to innovate at the hardware level, which is not impossible, but it is in the software where there will be a notable difference between one mobile and another and although this is already happening, now the software is going to be the true protagonist.
The iphone 5 is a great terminal, and even competing with the S4 xperia Z, etc., it surpasses these new phones in some points, something very commendable that shows its great value.
If you are falling behind and more with respect to the terminals that have come out months after him, you must wake up in many things and not only settle for matching the competition but leave it behind if you do not want to lose more market, Apple is the one they have to copy the others and not vice versa, regarding the screen I like the current one to handle it well with one hand, greetings.
What do others do and the iPhone is not like a great innovation-?
If Apple were able to skip its paradigms and be revolutionary, directly releasing an iPhone 7 with an iOS7, where both the hardware and the operating system had outstanding improvements (incorporating, for example, wireless charging or improvements in the OS that it has given us Cydia), without a doubt that she would leave us with our mouths open and she would resume her leadership, but from the signals that we have been receiving for some years, I could bet that this is far from happening ...
That is not to be revolutionary, it is to copy an idea that has existed for a while, but as with bluetooth, the iphone is castrated from the factory.
the ios 7 already exists
Well, I think that it does not rain to everyone's taste. On the one hand, the iPhone 5 came out recently, many people complained that their iPhone 4s were aging, others that they needed to improve and innovate. Samsung takes out its S3 and after 4 days it takes out the S4 and nobody says anything? how long has it been?
the screen!!! Another thing on which we do not agree, for example I love the size of the iPhone 5 and I have an iPhone 4 eh, I have friends with huge Samsung and htc the same, I do not like anything joeer that is a mobile not a tv! !!
the processor ?? !!! Have you seen the super processor of the s4? but if 8 cores do not even have my home computer! you'll see the battery.
Really for me a mobile has to be a mobile and little else, that is, a camera? yes of course but better with my canon. screen? my pc, mac or even the tv.
And finally to say that no one has Apple support, both in store and in software. not to mention the quality of the products. My old 3gs still works after looooong it is now starting to give battery problems. a friend with a htc is already on the 4th battery. And let's not talk about apple apps that MEAN to android apps.
regards
The maps above all ...
The screen of other devices is true, but the iPhone 5 is a larger screen but it is not proportional, it should have been more diagonal
The 8 cores, you have to read a little better I am not a fanboy, but they really think that the 8 cores will work as one, if they have not read these 8 cores well it means that 4 will work and another 4 will rest so to speak, since There are applications with higher requirements and that is why they will be the 4 cores with the highest power and the other 4 with lower power for applications with lower requirements, just that and in the rest I agree with you
Well I think .. The opposite of what I'm reading .. Everyone .. Says that the iPhone 5 is the same as the 4s! I think you are wrong .. I have been a user of an iPhone 4S already today .. Of an iPhone 5 and for me it is another mobile .. It has nothing to do with it .. Yes! It looks like in the front point! Everything else is different .. Thinner, less heavy .. More screen .. More processor .. More RAM .. Better camera .. A much more beautiful design .. I think we asked too much .. Why? Why do you see terminals with 5-inch screens .. With double the RAM .. With 8 cores etc. And you already think that it is better .. I have been an android user and I have not been satisfied .. It seems pathetic that a terminal with double everything like the s3 .. It is not able to match the fluidity of the iPhone 5 .. It is more I am hoping to see if the iPhone 5 vs s4 comparison comes out, surely there is not that much difference .. If on the screen .. And maybe on the camera .. But those 13mgpx don't say anything .. It is the lens that is important and Apple in that is a 10! But let's go to what I'm going to .. The iPhone has not been far behind! Still the best! iOS is the king of software for me.
What's more, I'm hoping to "have"
boy has my eyesight hurt when reading ...
Changing the subject, the problem with IOS-Iphone is that it does not innovate, it only copies and sells it more beautifully, that it does know how to sell very well. (iphone4-video call, who did not have a video call then, iphone4S-Siri, where is google-now…, iphone5-notifications, since the notification bar has almost nothing on Android… .. and so on…)
If you want to talk about copies we have all the companies that use Android and tell me which was the first tablet in the world or the first touchscreen before speaking, you have to know
now it is OK! I would like to differentiate myself as it happened before and to be able to tell people look, I have an iPHONE and it has this and this that it will never be able to have the rest of the phones ... it is good that they sell us the motorcycle with which iOS is the best ... We need improvements and innovations already because the competition is getting stronger every year!
apple has to get a bigger iphone wider and with ios 7, a camera with all the letters, a battery that lasts longer, the 3g that is not lost every time, fingerprint detector would be good, they could implement cydia things that It is true that they are always good, you have to open the world and not close the doors because the competition beats you, I will always prefer an iPhone before another but the truth is that Samsung, HTC, Nexus and Nokia itself win, Let's hope that the 5s is not a lie because they are going to fall very badly, if they want people to buy an iPhone they have to give it what people want
that is true
Technologically stagnant was the Google application in later iOS and patents are already being seen to integrate augmented reality to the current application.
"We will see if this is just the example of a beginning plus a long etc of innovation"
Being realistic with less hardware for me the tables remain the same but if there is something I can confirm is that the information is not filtered as it had been until a few years ago, given the legal procedures between large companies, the competition does not seem exaggerated. It is served and if we base advertising only on figures it is more than clear ...
Is that why now advertising is with tags? How innovative! Good according to the media
Ah! And one more thing; Officially the updates in the long run is what commands both at the hard and soft level it has always been like that and I mean, without giving offense.
What is the use of doing the JB if you don't change the root password of the system?
It is more than clear, those of you who do not know it have sold your soul to the devil. Unofficially you will get a tuned system but vulnerable to all the rules by which you are benefiting and that is not something that is officially achieved in 2 days either by licenses or by developing an API an example would be Siri that is in beta phase, another example would be the iPad, you can see what it took to go from 3 to 4 ...
I want a better one
innovate, innovate, but they should innovate, we only demand and we don't even know that we demand
Well, the apple corporation is an excellent company full of effort for bad luck, it is the same case of blackberry, these two companies depend a lot on something in itself, the reason is that that is why they are still alive, on the other hand, apple smartphones (iphone 3 , 4, 4s, 5, 5s) are the same physically, it does not change many things between 3 and 4, there are few physical differences but technological and memory there are many but between 4 and 4s nothing physical changes but a new version of the engine From boot, between the 4s and 5 there is a difference but not so noticeable, the iphone 5 costs a lot but it is not so good that, let's say, with a 1.3 gigahertz dual core processor it does not make a difference nor does it surpass the Samsung S3 despite this barely (Iphone 5) beats the S2, I say it for projects that I have carried out, The Iphone 5 is very limited in physical part, it attracts the consumer with aluminum cases (which are usually very attractive but there are disadvantages, such as the sd memory is not exp Andible, and the battery is not removable) although Apple depends on this elegant and sophisticated cell phone, it should be tested with other brands and not only with Samsung although with this there is a big dispute, in my country an iPhone 5 costs 800 or more dollars Americans, on the other hand, an S3 comes out at 530 or 600 maximum, but a LG of the Optimus series called 4XHD is more advanced than the S3 and has the same characteristics, it even has more processor than the S3 and is much more economical compare the prices of the S3 , S4, IPHONE 5, LG 4XHD, ZTE GRAND, S, HTC ONE X (ONE X +, ONE) COMPARE THE PRICES IN AMAZON and ask why the iPhone is very expensive, the answer is that the same as the blackberry and the company Apple create their own operating systems, on the one hand they win by themselves but on the other hand they isolate themselves from the market and it is very, very difficult for them to evolve at a technological level, for example, the blackberry z10 does not exceed the S3 or much to the other said but this if it beats the Iphone 5 in po Tencia, I have read a lot about smartphone and its qualities and if I write this it is because I am not ignorant, I like all the companies in the smartphone world but when I judge it I am completely different ... Thank you (• ___ • /)
INNOVATE: That word that all Apple Haters use ... And I have to ask you a question; INNOVATION IS TO PUT MORE SCREEN, MORE PROCESSOR, MORE CAMERA, MORE RAM ...? Apple does not need to "innovate", just because what it is going to do with the iPhone 5S will be REVOLUTIONIZE, or so I hope, we'll see what happens in September.
