iPhone 5

The iPhone 5 is a smartphone designed and marketed by Apple Inc. Released in September 2012, it was the sixth generation of the iPhone. The device features a 4-inch Retina display, a slimmer and lighter design compared to its predecessors, and is powered by the A6 chip, which improves performance and efficiency. The iPhone 5 supports LTE for faster mobile data connectivity and includes an 8-megapixel rear camera and a 1.2-megapixel front camera for high-quality photography and video calls. It initially shipped with iOS 6 and introduced features like Apple Maps and Siri improvements. The iPhone 5 was notable for its new Lightning connector, replacing the 30-pin dock connector used in earlier models. It laid the groundwork for future iPhone designs and was succeeded by the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c in the following years.
