Message: <blockquote data-quote="Plane Sailing" data-source="post: 6181253" data-attributes="member: 114">My contract is coming to an end on my 4s, and it is my intention to get a 5s and pass my 4s on to my wife (who will pass on her 3gs to our eldest child).I've seen a lot of people agreeing with you in saying "where is the wow?" but really... we've got more this time than we had between 4 and 4s. At that point we had faster processor, better camera, higher resolution video and software improvements (siri?)This time there is faster processor, better camera, higher framerate video, fingerprint sensor, motion co-processor and wider ranging software improvements in iOS7. I don't think there is any software which is 5s only this time, but this is above par considering the normal 's' designation year.Regarding fingerprint unlocking - i like the idea. I use a passcode to prevent casual usage of my phone, not to deter the determined hacker; I see this as being in the same boat but more convenient for me; essentially the phone ends up passcode locked for anyone else but I just push the home button to use it (don't even need to use the slider according to the videos). Am I concerned about my fingerprints? Well, I've been fingerprinted every time I've been to the USA for the last four or five years or more... and I'm pretty sure that the whole point of that is that the information is networked and sent off to all kinds of people. So trusting Apple when they say this just stores it in a bit of the phone isn't a big step for me, you'll understand!Cheers</blockquote>
