Apple iPhone 6s and 6s Plus holds the title of the being the latest and the most advanced smartphones from the Cupertino giant but the two years old- iPhone 5s is still a favorite among the Apple fans in India. The smartphone that according to retailers accounts for almost 50 per cent of total iPhone sales in the country was launched towards the end of 2013 at Rs 53,500 for the 16GB variant. But today the smartphone is available at Rs 21,945 on Flipkart for the 16GB variant and the 32GB variant costs Rs 30,399. This puts the smartphone in the fight with the popular OnePlus 2, the recently launched Nexus 5X, which is selling at Rs 23,979 on Amazon.in and the camera focused Lenovo's Vibe Shot.
In term of specifications, the smartphone may not match the today's standards on papers, but in real life usage, it can still give a run for money to a number of Android flagship devices. The smartphone features a 4-inch Retina display with a 640x1136 pixel resolution. It is powered by the Apple A7 chip, which has a dual-core 1.3GHz processor and is coupled with 1GB RAM. The smartphone has an 8MP iSight rear camera that can record 1080p videos at 30fps and can also shoot slow motion videos. There is a 1.2MP front facing camera that can be used to record videos in 720p. You also get an effective fingerprint scanner on the front. The smartphone runs on the latest iOS 9 and is backed by a 1560mAh battery unit.
With the new pricing, Apple now has a strong contender in the mid-range segment that can easily take on a number of Android counterparts. Keep the smartphone in consideration if you are looking for a handset priced in sub- Rs 25,000.
