Comparison of Apple iPhone 5S vs iPhone 5 vs iPhone 5C Specifications
Key features of the iPhone 5s vs 5C
The fingerprint sensor, called Touch ID, is a thin circle around the device’s existing home button, and removes the need to enter a pin code to activate the device, but Apple did not claim it would replace the need for more advanced security features such as those required by online banking or shopping. It will, however, work for purchases on Apple’s own iTunes Store for music and apps purchases.
