iPhone 5s vs 4s

gordonbennet

I have an iPhone 4s using ios7, which I'm happy with, but my daughter has her eye on it!

If I upgrade to a 5s, what differences will I see?
OK, longer screen and 4G is a bit faster. But is there anything else that makes it a must? Is it worth upgrading?

It's lighter.
Better camera.
Faster.

Is the camera better on the 5 ? How?

And the screen isn't so scratch resistant as the 4 is it?

It has an improved sensor, it's a lot better in low light.

No, screen is just as scratch resistant, it's also a superior screen, offering better clarity and readability.

Here is one direct comparison review.

remember you need to give apple your fingerprint to unlock instead of the pin code.

No you don't "need" to, the fingerprint reader is an optional extra feature. You can still use the simple pin lock (or none at all if that's the way you are).

Having waited so long sine last years launch, what's the point? Just get the 6 when it launches this year and be ahead of the curve!
