Apple today announced iPhone 5, the
thinnest and lightest iPhone ever, completely redesigned to feature a stunning
new 4-inch Retina display; an Apple-designed A6 chip for blazing fast performance;
and ultrafast wireless technology—all while delivering even better battery
life. iPhone 5 comes with iOS 6, the world’s most advanced mobile operating
system with over 200 new features including: the all new Maps app with
Apple-designed cartography and turn-by-turn navigation; Facebook integration;
Passbook organization; and even more Siri features and languages.
“iPhone 5 is the most beautiful
consumer device that we’ve ever created,” said Philip Schiller, Apple’s senior
vice president of Worldwide Marketing. “We’ve packed an amazing amount of
innovation and advanced technology into a thin and light, jewel-like device
with a stunning 4-inch Retina display, blazing fast A6 chip, ultrafast
wireless, even longer battery life; and we think customers are going to love
it.”
iPhone 5 is the thinnest smartphone in
the world, with an all-new 7.6 mm anodized aluminum body that is 18 percent
thinner and 20 percent lighter than iPhone 4S. Designed with an unprecedented
level of precision, iPhone 5 combines an anodized aluminum body with diamond
cut chamfered edges and glass inlays for a truly incredible fit and finish.
The new 4-inch Retina display on
iPhone 5 delivers even more pixels than iPhone 4S, making the already
incredible Retina display even better. By making the screen taller, not wider,
iPhone 5 is just as easy to use with one hand so you can tap, type and scroll
the same way you always have, while enjoying even more of your content
including amazing apps optimized for the larger Retina display, widescreen HD
video, a full five days of your Calendar and more of every web page.
iPhone 5 supports ultrafast wireless
standards including LTE and DC-HSDPA, so you can browse, download and stream
content even faster. To support the latest LTE technology, Apple has pioneered
a unique single-radio LTE solution that provides blazing fast speeds while
fitting perfectly into the new remarkably thin design. iPhone 5 features
dual-band 802.11n Wi-Fi support for a wireless experience up to 150 Mbps.
The all-new A6 chip was designed by
Apple to maximize performance and power efficiency to support all the
incredible new features in iPhone 5, including the stunning new 4-inch Retina
display—all while delivering even better battery life. With up to twice the CPU
and graphics performance, almost everything you do on iPhone 5 is blazing fast
for launching apps, loading web pages and downloading email attachments.
