As far as the display, Apple has increased the screen size from 3.5 inches to 4 inches, which also produces brighter colors. iPhone 5 comes with an amazing camera, one of the best in a smartphone up to that date. The iSight shooter delivers clear, crisp and details images with a bit blown out color reproduction. Up front, there is a 1.3 MP camera which also shows surprisingly good results.
