While the Apple-holics rejoice that they have a new iPhone to imbibe, the nay-sayers are listing what the iPhone 5 is missing. While Apple calls it "the biggest thing to happen to the iPhone since the iPhone."
Today, we learned that the iPhone 5 features iOS 6, 4" Retina screen with touch integration, thinner, LTE, DC-HSPDA, dual-band Wi-Fi, 8MP camera with panorama mode, A6 processor, Ligntning connector, new EarPods and wideband audio. iPhone 5 is nearly 9 millimeters taller than iPhone 4S, but the same width therefore you can use it with one hand.
Let's see what the iPhone 5 lacks that other top smartphones have:
- Adobe Flash Player - this feature is also lacking on Android 4.1 Jelly Bean and beyond. Many websites use Flash to animate images which is a data hog. Most ICS and earlier Android smartphones show flash.
