Apple's iPhone 5S Revealed in New Photos

I'm not upgrading to a phone that's 8 months old before I've even held it in my hands. I got the 4 on launch day, I intend to try and do the same With the 5S
Im still using an iPhone 4S because quite frankly I was unenthused by the iPhone 5 when it was first released. It seemed to be a fairly dilute product, and I saw no particular need to upgrade.
Now, if they consolidate the design and review the specs a little, Ill be quite willing to jump ship, mainly because my trusty 4S is really starting to show its age and because theres a plentiful number of apps out there that take advantage of the 5s enlarged screen format.
Still, it seems to me that from the 5 onwards Apple has lost its way a little, erring on the side of conservative caution. Which is quite understandable, but a little sad, too.
Im still hoping that the front bezel of this thing might reveal something interesting, unexpected and useful such as a fingerprint sensor and NFC communications to argument credit cards at POS, but I think the chances are slim.

Are people really surprised that it looks the same? This has been a recurring pattern for quite some time now.
Everyone misunderstands that quote. He was making a statement about his anger that Apple has lost it's way, when a mosquito bit him on the bum.
"Can't innovate anymore" <bite> "My ass!!!!!"
The model number appears to be A1234.
The original iPhone is A1203. The 3G is A1241.
Confirmed: iPhone 2GS.

Did anyone really expect anything different?
Apple is probably working on the iPhone 6 for 2014 with radical thin new design with all the bells and whistles. For 2014.
The roadmap for Apple is clear, major hardware changes every 2 years(iPhone 3g, 4, 5, 6), minor additions in-between that (3GS, 4S, 5S).
If you want some change for sake of change, go to android

Probably for HDR-nightshots. iOS 7 supports 60 FPS video capture, which allows also 30 FPS HDR-video (10-Bit H.264 encoding necessary, IMHO).2x the flash 2x speed. Only on the iPhone 5S lol
I hope we see more hardware upgrades
So basically its the exact same thing
That's what the 'S' is for. 4Same, 5Same

Blasphemy !
