    • iOS 10 makes it a buggy mess, Useless for phone calls with no VoLTE support.

      I'm a phone collector, and I decided to sit down and give the iPhone 5 a chance. First problem, it uses 3G to make and receive phone calls, which is a huge issue because my carrier shut down 3G in 2020, rendering it useless for phone calls. It refuses to connect to LTE because I'm pretty sure it uses something to verify your line related to the phone. The phone's latest software is iOS 10, which is a good operating system other than the fact that in the 3 years I've collected phones I've never seen an iPhone like this lag and be buggy THIS MUCH. Unlocking the phone is fine, but it will get HOT when you try doing anything remotely intensive. The camera SUCKS by the way, which is something I never thought I would say. Taking mirror selfies for example look terrible even if the lights are on, and the flash in NO help at all. Outdoors pics are fine I guess, but they aren't good at all comparable to the Samsung Galaxy S3 or S4.

    Ki Cost-effective
    Score
    Not available
    What is a Ki score?
    Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
    How do we calculate the Ki?

    In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

    • Design and screen
    • Hardware and performance
    • Camera
    • Connectivity
    • Battery

    Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

    Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

    Does the Ki score change?

    The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
