Journal 3: Brand New and Better

In Language Arts, we had a project to find a new or relatively new product, and critique it. Today, I will critique the new Apple I phone 5s.

The new Apple I phone 5s  comes in gold, silver, and gray.  The phone has a beautiful aluminum outside. The metal and the glass of the phone are amazingly smooth. There is sapphire crystal  in the home button, and, the crystal is used to protect the amazing I Sight camera. The phone looks and feels amazingly light.

The case for this amazing device is made from hand-selected leather. Each case looks and feels amazing. Even better, it is made to fit only your I phone 5s , and the phone still feels unbelievably light with the case on. The case is made to cover the volume buttons, the on/off switch, and the curved edge of the I phone.  There are even holes for the speaker cut into the case! On the inside, it has a soft microfiber lining to protect the outside of the phone. On the outside , the color is amazing. Thanks to a special dye that is infused to the leather, the color isn’t just surface deep. There are six different  colors to choose from, including a red TM edition.

Many people check their phones dozens upon dozens of times a day. Having to put in a pass code slows you down! Everyone knows that you do it to make sure that if some one else ever gets your phone, they can’t access the information. Well, say goodbye to pass codes! Now, with the new Apple I phone 5s, you can unlock your phone using the new Touch ID fingerprint identity sensor! Put your finger on the home button of your phone, and just like that, your phone unlocks! Your fingerprint can also approve purchases from the I Tunes store, the App Store, and the I Books store, without having to put in your password! Touch ID also lets you add multiple fingerprints, so that the people you trust can also have access.

There’s fast. There’s also A7 fast. The new A7 chip gives you computer and graphics performance two times better than the A6 chip. The A7 chip makes the  phone 5s the first-ever 64 bit smartphone in the world. That’s desktop class architecture in a slim smartphone!

 

The M7 coprocessor is like a sidekick to the A7 chip. It is designed to track your motion from an accelerometer,  gyroscope, and compass. That kind of task would normally go to the A7 chip. The M7 is more efficient at it, though. Fitness apps that track physical activity can get the data through the M7 coprocessor without constantly engaging the A7 chip. the M7 also knows if you’re walking, running, driving, or even sleeping! For example, Maps switches from driving to walking by using turn by turn navigation. Like if you park your car, and then walk to somewhere. If your phone hasn’t moved for a while, like when you’re asleep, the M7 coprocessor will reduce how much network is being used to save the phone’s battery.

The new I Sight camera is capable of so many things. It has a larger sensor, and more pixels. It has continuous burst mode, or a mode that lets you take up to ten pictures at once!  It has white and amber LED to adjust the flash intensity and the amount of color shown in the photo. It even has automatic stabilization for shaky or blurry photos. It has slow motion video, too. You can also zoom in three times closer while recording a video. You can also put it on square mode, which automatically crops your photo into a square shape. You can even take landscape photos! There are also photo filters.

 

Overall, I think that the I Phone 5s is an amazing new product in technology. I really recommend this product for anyone who loves brand new and better technology.

There is more information on this amazing new technology on the website!
