The iPhone has had a lot to contend with over the years, with the development of more and more high-tech smartphones. Despite the challenges, it has managed to keep up with most of its competitors. In particular, the new iPhone 5 is proving to be a fighter when it comes to competing against other phones.
The first thing to note about the iPhone 5 is its smaller screen, coming in at 4 inches whereas most other new smartphones hit a 4.5 inch screen. Despite this, its resolution can still be said to be higher than some. The benefit of its smaller overall size is that it weighs less than nearly all of its competitors. Its battery life is comparable, though on the lower end of the spectrum and the camera manages to hold its own against other competing phones. Over the years the iPhone has grown in size only very slightly but has somehow managed to become lighter and lighter. This site http://gadgets.ndtv.com offers useful comparison between the iPhone and other significant phones for more details. Due to
the fact that Apple is the only company that makes the hardware for iPhones, it means that inconsistency in the quality of how their products run generally is not a problem for iPhones, compared to Android phones that tend to freeze and have issues. Of course, another benefit of the iPhone is its ability to hold a large number of songs, something which it has managed to maintain throughout the years of its progression.
As far as progression goes, over the years the iPhone has probably been the one model that has remained closest to its original design, whilst maintaining upgrades alongside the best of the smartphones.
