I like my iPhone 5. It's tough, light, and has a solid internet connection wherever I go, not to mention having an all-day battery life, a charging speed that lives up to the name of its cable, and included washing-machine-proof earbuds. The suite of available accessories is also formidable: durable yet stately leather flip-front cases, external charging packs that can make my battery runneth over, and a warm and loving iHome. I've only bought the first of these tools, but I suspect that those who travel the world would enjoy the second, and Apple afficionados would enjoy the third.
Yet three other features stand out. The first is intuitive use and easy maintenance: software updates are automatic and require only a few taps, the app-store is streamlined and beautiful, and time-sensitive functions like picture-taking and emergency calling can be accessed without punching in the pass-code. The second is the app-store itself, wherein one can find such unlikely yet wonderfully utilitarian tools like a decibel monitor, ruler, and typing aid. Finally, Apple's customer service--especially at its stores--is phenomenal. Just today I went to buy a new lightning cable for my mom's car, and I had a $20 bill in my pocket. I took the lightning cable from the wall, went to a salesman, and asked him if he took cash. He did, and the price came out $20.19. Sighing, I began to turn back to the rack to return the cable, but the salesman did something that I, in my admittedly brief time on this earth, have never seen: he took a quarter out of his pocket, covered the difference himself, and gave me, of all people, the change. Needless to say, I was amazed, and I promptly took the cable, change, and left the store, glad to have been treated so well. I told my mom the story, and she gave me a quarter to give to him, which I did. He seemed surprised, but took it.
