If there is one thing absolutely vital in my smartphone apart from great call management, is it being able to download and edit most email attachments; and much more such as Document Viewer, Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel, Microsoft PowerPoint, PDF, PPT, PPTX, XLS, XLSX, TXT, DOC, DOCX present in this device. No point fidgeting with a screen that poses real difficulty both while watching videos and typing on the cramped keyboard, the portability that is offered by the smaller screen seems futile against the little value it offers with respect to functionality. Not an hour goes by without my phone ringing, that's why I always go for something like the Apple iPhone 5S that has all the advanced features to ease the communication. Although I am not so much into file sharing via Bluetooth as I am more of an email guy, but it is quite essential for hands-free calling. I am constantly on the move, even if most of the travel routes are familiar, the GPS navigation in the Apple iPhone 5S is quite reliable and reassuring.Mrs. Iyer's Review (A homemaker)
The size of the Apple iPhone 5S makes it extremely portable, but with its tiny and cramped keypad it's really not of much use to me. I like enlarging the images and text on the screen, which I do quite often, using my fingers instead of fidgeting with the settings and multi-touch on this phone allows me to do it. I never let a special occasion pass by without recording it, right from cake cutting to dinner parties; and the Apple iPhone 5S with good recording features is really good for me. I don't like the camera in particular, and I won't be buying the Apple iPhone 5S, however good the other features might be. I like the Apple iPhone 5S mainly for its huge internal storage, I never prefer deleting images or videos from my phone.Ishan's Review (A geek)
Although the display looks great, the tiny screen size is too awkward to please the gamer or the ardent bookworm in me. I definitely need a multi-touch screen to zoom in or out on the gaming action and even flick the ebook pages. The Apple iPhone 5S with the 64 GB internal storage really talks to me; it understands my storage needs when it comes to my ebook and gaming collection.Technical Specification

Prachi's Review (A social butterfly)
For me the 4 inches display is the first thing I noticed in the Apple iPhone 5S. I love texting and all my friends too prefer texting over talking, so I find the screen size of the Apple iPhone 5S very cramped. I can zoom in or zoom out images with pinching movements of my fingers on the screen of the Apple iPhone 5S. And flick my fingers to rotate images or turn pages of ebook; that's why the Multi-Touch technology is really nice. Yes, 8 MP is not that great camera resolution. There are so many smartphones with better megapixels sometimes even cheaper than this phone. I love clicking pictures with my smartphone and this one doesn't seem up for it. I can't imagine my smartphone without the secondary camera. I and my friends simply love the selfies and groupies and click hundreds of them. It's too much effort to do it with the main camera, so having a cool front camera is much better; it is more fun to have front camera with higher megapixels. My smartphone should do a lot of things simultaneously and not just basic messaging, emails and browsing. And the 2G network is too slow to do anything more than that. I can now travel to almost any new place or location with the built-in GPS and it is great help during various emergencies, traffic updates or navigation issues. I always forget charging my phone so USB charging via my laptop is really a good option for me and sometimes I even use this port to transfer music and images. I love the Apple iPhone 5S where I hardly delete photos and videos due to storage issues. Plus I even carry around my entire music library. My smartphone is my world and it easily carries around my numerous group pics, videos with friends, my favourite YouTube videos, music, books, social networking apps and much more.
