Design and Display
One promise of Apple, even a secret, was to be able to offer its loyal patrons in a novel product design section. So not surprisingly, confirming all the rumors that had been proposed to date, Apple has decided to completely renovate the external structure of its flagship product. Thus, the iPhone 5 is presented with a much more thin and light, topped with an aluminum metal casing that gives it a much more modern and futuristic. The phone measures 123.8 x 58.6 exact x 7.6 mm, which gives it the property of being 18% slimmer over its predecessor and 20% lighter, since weight is of 112 grams, as stated in the official sheet.
The company introduced two models. One black, with rear color anodized black and white version, with aluminum trim live behind. The effort has been cyclopean designers, in the sense that they have had to cut some of the most crucial internal parts, always taking into account the opinion and judgment of the technical team of Apple.
The screen is one of its key elements. During the rumors (which incidentally was not short) has talked a lot about the possibility that Apple decided to expand its next iPhone screen. Well, all hypotheses were confirmed. The Cupertino has filed a device equipped with a Retina display up to four inches, surpassing the 3.5 inches that had been lavished since 2007, partly due to the attachment that Steve Jobs had gone over this issue.

With respect to adaptation that developers will have to do on the applications to be viewed properly, it should be noted that teams are already working to make things work well. In fact, the main applications of Apple: Garage Band, iMovie Calendar and are ready to work with the new screen. All other applications will have a black frame to save the change as they arrive on the update.
