7 Things Not Owned iPhone 5
Present as an Apple's most advanced smartphone, the iPhone 5 does seem to have it all. He has specifications, performance, and also the best features.
However, no product is absolutely perfect in this world, as well as the iPhone 5. There are still some things that can not be done by a device that reportedly will soon get the next generation.
Here are 7 important functions that are not owned by the iPhone 5, as quoted by Business Insider.
1. Yet equipped with NFC
Smartphones that are circulating these days, be it a middle class to upper class, most are equipped with NFC. Unfortunately, up to the 6th generation, Apple still has not embed these components.
NFC is actually the development of card technology Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). By using NFC, the user can perform payment activities simply by attaching the phone to a reader.
Apple itself is already "replace" NFC with Passbook system which became available in iOS 6. Through these features, users can store tickets, gift cards (gift cards), boarding passes, and much more.
This feature can also run some (not all) of the NFC. For example, users can not use the NFC to wirelessly send money to other people's PayPal account.
With the proliferation of stores that support NFC, Apple has had to apply these components to the new device.
2. Typing is more comfortable
Typing on the touchscreen is never as comfortable as typing on a physical keyboard. Developers are trying hard to develop applications that make typing typing comfort level has increased.
One application that has managed to accommodate the matter is Swype. Unfortunately, this app is only available in Android only.
Instead of having to type in letter by letter, the application user can drag (move finger without lifting your finger from the screen) to make the word.
In fact, Apple gave auto-text/autocorrect function that is able to predict what word typed by the user wants. However, often resulting word is not right. Of course it makes users more sluggish and reduce the level of comfort in typing.
3. Support for SD cards
Almost all Android based phones on the market these days are backed by a microSD port. Given these ports, users can expand the storage capacity of their devices.
On average, the device supports microSD cards up to 64GB.
4. Capacity seems inadequate
By the way the problem of storage media, the capacity provided by Apple for its iPhone devices is between 8, 16, 32, and 64GB.
Currently, the most widely circulated in 16 and 32GB capacities.
Users themselves many have complained that the lack of storage capacity.
Perhaps, for the future, Apple can deliver a device with a larger internal capacity, as they once present in the iPod Classic. At that time, it has the largest capacity is 160GB.
5. Standard USB cable
Whether intentional or not, Apple is trying to be different for the affairs of the USB cable. Apple does not use a standard USB cable for charging and also the problem of data transfer.
In fact, smartphones on the market today use an average of the same micro USB cable.
6. Watching videos on the other display
Most smartphones on the current class already has a micro-HDMI port. Through these ports, users can move the phone screen to other screens, such as TV.
Unfortunately, Apple does not provide the port to the iPhone. Users have to pay an extra few hundred thousand dollars to buy a special adapter, if you want to do that.
7. The battery can be removed
IPhone 5 battery life is increased compared to the iPhone 4S. Users can call for 8 hours on 3G networks, 8 hours of surfing the internet, watching 10 hours of video, and 40 hours of music listening.
However, what if the battery is damaged? Users should go to the after-sales service to replace the battery. Unibody design that is owned by the iPhone does not allow the user to replace the battery yourself.
