very common feature like card slot, nfc, Bluetooth transfer, WiFi direct, hd screen, radio, bigger screen not available on it.
also price for only 16 gb and only 8mp camera , only dual core is rs. 53000 in india.
I think worst phone in this high range.
in android platform you can get all this feature under rs. 25000.
so think before buy.

i just got my new iphone 5s yesterday and i gotta say the functions are just awesome. The screen resolution is really great and the graphics is really fast. The one thing i'm not really satisfied with is the battery life. a few hours into browsing and the phones battery just gives up on you. i think 10 to 12 hours on uncontinuous browsing will have drained your battery. i just have 1 question though, i can't pair my phones bluetooth to m y partners bluetooth. is the bluetooth function of this phone still just for headsets?.. TIA

Taz26, 17 Dec 2013The post is meant for uIt's an interesting video, the Nexus 5 did win, yes.
So I've showed one where the iPhone wins, you've showed one where the N5 wins, they both fast, no lags.
The iPhone for some reason got stuck loading one of the apps it was opening at the end, I think it had something to do with net connection, can't remember what it was. But either way, the Nexus 5 would look silly if, as a google phone, it was slower than an iPhone running google apps, lol. The Nexus 5 looked jumpy with some apps, but the iPhone was smooth all along. I still like iPhone, the Nexus 5 I'm sure is great, but not a fan of Google, or Android, or LG, haha. But I'm sure it's a great phone.

14 days w/iPhone 5S, 17 Dec 2013Why I returned my iPhone 5S to T-Mobile USA after 14 days: ... moreNow you sir need a round of applause! That is the most comprehensive and well written opinion/review about any phone that I have ever read. I do like your opinion and as an iPhone lover myself, I do think you made the right choice in returning it. If it's not for you then it's not for you. Well written! :) I have however read a few reports about iPhone connectivity not being good in Texas, it must be the phone for some weird reason because I've never read about other phones have the same problem. But either way, the way you described your experience with it was great, and Im sure beneficial to others, :).

Why I returned my iPhone 5S to T-Mobile USA after 14 days:
1. The phone was just too small for text intensive applications; I kept having to put it in landscape mode to send messages—as in vertical mode the keyboard is just too small (for me).
2. Numerous times while typing the screen fails to register my touch. My wife has the same unit (AT&T) and it is does the same. So, it was not a defective unit.
3. The in-store 16gb model is just not enough memory. Better to purchase 32gb or higher.
4. Regardless of whatever tech reviewers say, the iPhone 53 (in my Houston area at least) does not download quickly. The LG G2 was much quicker. My new Note 3 is faster.
5. T-Mobile agreed to unlock my phone—as I'm a valued customer. The problem, however, is that it requires iTunes with a certain iOS. My Mac will not update to this. Being married to iTunes is very inconvenient.
6. Although people say iOS is easy, and in some cases it is, the setting area is not as intuitive as the current Android—especially that of the LG G2.
7. The battery on both LTE and 4G (T-Mobile USA) discharges too quickly using Skype: Down to 30% in two-hours.
8. Many iOS 6 programs not yet updated to iOS 7.
9. The spell check is a outdated disaster.
What I liked:
1. Excellent camera images—especially in low light.
2. Skype video calls were natural and extremely clear.
3. Beautiful screen clarity and colors.
4. Instant mute button.
5. Solid and pretty (I had a the gold model).
6. It played well with my Samsung bluetooth headset, including Skype, KakaoTalk, and WhatsApp—even better than the Note 3 running the same programs. This was a surprise.
7. I actually liked the notification and quick app menus better than Samsung.
8. Finger unlock sensor is way cool!
9. Charging connector is great!
Is the iPhone 53 bad and does it deserve the low ratings on GSM Arena? No. It's a nice phone and probably great for some users.

My comment was directed at people who don't ask for any help, they just make a statement saying the phone is bad, or it sucks, or something like that, because their phone has just had a failure. Those people aren't asking for help, and if their only way of getting help is online, perhaps they should identify a problem instead of running a phone down. Also I did not abuse anyone, I directed a comment at people that abuse the freedoms of the internet.

Anonymous, 17 Dec 2013Plz what do u suggest Xperia Z1 Or IPhone 5S ?? if there's ... moreHello!
If you wanna use your new phone under water, go for Xperia Z1...
But, if you want a phone to use your new phone anywhere else (apart from under water) on superior performance in every task that matters to you and your family, and your job, buy iphone 5s.
In case you are not decided, buy a used iphone 5 and then multiply the performance by four (4) and then you will get a reason to buy a new iphone 5s.
Bye, lets meet above the water meniscus...that is where we live...

AnonD-215079, 14 Dec 2013HI FRIENDS ,,, am now using iphone 5s . nice phone and good... moreHi,
Please let me ask you,...In Kerala the BSNL accepts samsung (Mali/Qualcomm/snapdragon) and rejects A7 (64)?
Even in areas far away from Kerala iphone 5s has a better performance than that of two galaxy notes tied together...ahahah....tied using Apple/Nokia/Sony cables...and some strings or wires attached....ahahaha
So, stop lying and go buy an iphone 5s.
Then you will understand what I'm saying,...I have it here, coupled with the 'air'.....and Mac pro...ahaha

AnonD-201280, 15 Dec 2013Then something is clearly wrong with it, didn't that though... moreYou don't need to abuse people , you have to realise that not everyone lives in country where you can easily return faulty products , I for one lives in Nigeria and I can say when you make a purchase you don't get to return it because it's faulty as it will not be accepted back, there is no licensed apple dealer for iPhone in Nigeria, most of them are third party dealers and therefore no way a faulty iphone will be accepted back. So most people are left with forum like this to express there problems and see whether it's a software issue that can easily be rectified. It's easier than having to package the iPhone back to America or Europe for repairs which is definitely not cost effective and may even be more costly than buying another iPhone from 3rd party dealers again.
