Sazid, 10 Apr 2015is it safe to upgrade iphone 5 to 8.3?? is it smooth on iPhone 5?? or shud i stay with 8.2??I hear 4s owners are very happy with improved performance in 8.3, on 5s I don't notice any speedup but 5s has a hefty performance advantage so I assume you will notice it with iPhone 5.

      My mophie charger case is great. I swear by it. You never have to worry about running out of batter during a day of heavy use.

                                  Iphone 5 still a good nice and beautiful one hand smartphone.. U will like it when u can using it with one hand.. Even it get older now i5 still can make u happy to own it. Ios 8.3 make i5 still beautiful simple elegant handset. Never lag when u playing games even it just have apple a6 chip.. The minus is only the battery drain fast. Just buy a powerbank.. Sometimes i5 getting hot if u using it when charging ur battery. Now i call this phone the most cheap elegant phone.. Only 380 u$ now in my country for 64gb i5..

                                    Before any attempted comments, yes the phone was updated to new software, no it hasn't been damaged or been dropped, and no I didn't leave it on my dashboard of my vehicle. After only 1 and a half years of ownership, my iphone 5 died just a few days ago. Customer service couldn't identify what was immediately wrong with it and quoted me over $200 to ship it to them and fix it. The value of a working Iphone 5 is apparently $80 according to Apple. How does a $800 phone reduce to $80 in over a year. I understand the concept of depreciation value, but for crying out loud, this isn't a Ford Pinto...This is supposedly the best of the best. Not happy whats so ever and am switching to another company on Monday.
