The iPhone is still very popular for all its convenience, ergonomics and applications. It was the pioneer in touch screen technology and smartphone operating systems with its iOS, and set the standard for all other smartphones. The iPhone design is comfortably slim and lightweight, with the latest iPhone5S even slimmer. This iPhone boasts even better features with a revamped control center for convenient access to menu settings, and new Siri voices. Reportedly, the latest iPhone will be only a tad heavier for a good reason. It will have a bigger battery, with a touted longer life. Unless it is a drastic improvement, the iPhone will still have relatively short life compared to other smartphones today. So, what can you do about this for your iPhone?
