“Totally worth the price!”

Written on: 05/08/2020 by BentleeWilliams (7 reviews written)

Apple's first iPhone with Touch ID is now a solid budget buy iPhone 5S debuted Apple's newfangled fingerprint sensor and 64-bit processor three years ago, and it's still a viable smartphone for anyone on a budget. It's held up well enough with a good camera and iOS 10 software update… Read Full Review

“Iphone 5S”

Written on: 26/03/2016 by MrSatisfier (2 reviews written)

Had my phone for 6 months now, and I am very happy with it. Everything works the way it should, and means I can keep my music library on my phone, and can have it all via the Bluetooth in my new car. Got a decent contract plan as I didn't go for a 6/6s and can't complain. The only thing that could be improved is the battery life, as if I use it how I am now, I can drain it in less than a day. Ticks every box I wanted, and the multitude of apps available via app store is incredible. This is… Read Full Review

“Perfect size of the phone!”

Written on: 24/01/2015 by MadHorse (6 reviews written)

I am not a big fan of Apple products and it's actually my first one (although I used my wife's iPhone 4S for few days before), but I really liked this one! In my opinion, Iphone 6 is too big for the phone - it's not ipad after all, and iphone 4 has not so good screen (comparing with 5th). Has nice applications and is quite good both for calls and for mobile internet access. If you prefer compact phones like myself, you'll like this one too!… Read Full Review

“Be warned!!!!!!!!!”

Written on: 20/07/2014 by paul sanderson (13 reviews written)

I have I phones now for many years 3/4/4s/5/5s I've loved them from the start but the 5/5s are a major let down. The positives are there for all to see. Great screen / processor / super for Internet games and surfing. BUT and it's a massive but 1. The lightning leads are useless they can last 12 months or 12 minutes. In the last 2 years I've bought 10 yes 10!!!!!!!!! 2. If you want to use it as a telephone to make calls you are better off with 2 tin cans and apiece of string! After 4… Read Full Review

“Fantastic Phone”

Written on: 04/06/2014 by glenc (319 reviews written)

I've had iphone's now for a few years, having been a Nokia fan for many years and then tried out HTC and a couple of others. I went from an iPhone 4s to the 5s - it's not a dramatic change but it is significant enough to make you feel it's worthwhile It's a lot quicker than the 4s, the extra size screen is useful and it feels much, much lighter (almost like a toy!). I find the battery life is much better too - although that could just be because the 4s was old and batteries do tend to… Read Full Review
