You check your iPhone dozens and dozens of times a
day, probably more. Entering a passcode each time
just slows you down. But you do it because making
sure no one else has access to your iPhone is
important. With iPhone 5s, getting into your phone is
faster, easier, and even a little futuristic. Introducing
Touch ID — a new fingerprint identity sensor.
Put your finger on the Home button, and just like that
your iPhone unlocks. It’s a convenient and highly
secure way to access your phone. Your fingerprint can
also approve purchases from iTunes Store, the App
Store, and the iBooks Store, so you don’t have to
enter your password. And Touch ID is capable of 360‐
degree readability. Which means no matter what its
orientation — portrait, landscape, or anything in
between — your iPhone reads your fingerprint and
knows who you are. And because Touch ID lets you
enroll multiple fingerprints, it knows the people you
trust, too.

There’s fast. And then there’s A7 fast. The new A7 chip gives you CPU and graphics performance
up to 2x faster than the A6 chip. Even more impressive, A7 makes iPhone 5s the first 64‐bit
smartphone in the world — that’s desktop‐class architecture in a superslim phone. And because
iOS 7 was built specifically for 64‐bit, it’s uniquely designed to take advantage of the A7 chip.
A7 supports OpenGL ES version 3.0 to deliver
the kind of detailed graphics and complex
visual effects once possible only on Mac
computers, PCs, and gaming consoles. The
difference is amazing. Take the imaginary
worlds in games, for instance. Textures and
shadows look more true to life. Sunlight
reflects off the water. The whole experience
feels much more realistic.
iOS 7 and all the built‐in apps are optimized for
the A7 chip. The Camera app is a great
example. It takes advantage of a new image
signal processor built into A7 to give you up to
2x faster autofocus, faster photo capture, and
higher video frame rates.1 You’d think with all
this going on, battery life would suffer. But it
doesn’t, because A7 is designed to be
incredibly energy efficient.

iPhone 5s features advanced technologies custom designed for the iSight camera’s hardware and
software. So anyone anywhere can take an amazing photo at any time. It simply makes more sense
to teach iPhone how to take a great picture rather than teach people how to be expert
photographers. Here are just some of the capabilities of the new iSight camera.
Larger sensor. Larger pixels. Larger aperture.
Light is a key factor in getting a great photo. The new
iSight has a 15 percent larger sensor. Bigger pixels,
measuring 1.5 microns. And an aperture of ƒ/2.2. All of
which let in more light.
Continuous burst mode.
Burst mode lets you capture multiple shots of the action
by snapping 10 photos per second. And real‐time analysis
suggests individual shots or a sequence of photos that
you might like best.
True Tone flash.
A white LED and an amber LED work with intelligent
software algorithms to adjust the flash intensity and color
temperature, using over 1000 unique combinations to
light your subject perfectly.

iPhone 5s has a stunning exterior. So any case that dares to conceal it should be equally
appealing. The new iPhone 5s Case more than meets the requirement. Made from premium,
hand‐selected leather, each one looks and feels luxurious. And because it’s precision crafted for
iPhone 5s, your phone still feels incredibly slim even with the case on.
The leather is deliberately shaped to cover the volume buttons, the on/off switch, and the
chamfered edge of iPhone. Holes for the iPhone speaker are cut with a high‐speed drill normally
used for circuit boards. Inside, a soft microfiber lining protects the exterior of your iPhone.
Outside, you see color that’s more than surface deep, thanks to a dye that’s infused into the
leather. And there are six complementary colors to choose from, including a (RED)™ edition.

Among the many things that went into the
design of iOS 7, one was a consideration of the
devices on which it would run. We knew
iPhone 5s would be powered by the A7 chip
and 64‐bit architecture. And we designed iOS 7
to take advantage of it. Beyond that, however,
the design goal of iOS 7 was to take a familiar
and loved operating system and make the
experience of using it even simpler, more
useful, and more enjoyable.

iOS 7 is the manifestation of simplicity. The
interface is purposely unobtrusive. Anything
that doesn’t add value has been stripped away.
So the focus is on what matters most: your
content. Layers and translucency create depth
and provide a sense of context and place.
Animation and motion make everything more
engaging. And the result is a better, smarter,
more delightful experience overall. iOS 7 is just
another way iPhone 5s is the culmination of
forward thinking.
