To look at the iPhone 5 and the 5S side by side, color schemes aside you would not know the difference between the 2. The major changes in the iPhone 5S are all inside, packed away in the brand new A7 64-bit processor, coupled up with, for the first time ever, and additional processor – the M7 Motion Control coprocessor.

Apple claimed that their new iPhone was twice the speed of the iPhone 5 but many dismissed this as hype and sales talk. However, there may be something in their claims. Both models have been put through their paces with the Geekbench Software and speed tested to see just what is different. The results speak for themselves.

Result :
As you can see, in these 4 tests alone, the iPhone 5S far outperformed the iPhone 5 by Apple’s claims of around twice the speed. These results shouldn’t be taken as gospel – mobile benchmark testing has a long way to go before it is perfect. However, they do give us some idea of what to expect if we purchase the iPhone 5S with its revolutionary chipset.
