[truebluefan]

It's finally here!

Apple announced its new iPhone, the iPhone 5s, during an event at its Cupertino, California headquarters on Tuesday.

The iPhone 5s will be the same size as its predecessor, the iPhone 5, with a 4-inch screen. Big screens are all the rage these days, and Apple is rumored to be working on phones with larger screens, but physically, the iPhone 5s looks very similar to last year's model.

The phone includes Apple's new A7 64-bit chip, and Apple describes the 5s as "the first 64-bit smartphone in the world." Phil Schiller, the company's senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing, said that the device's CPU and graphics are twice as fast as the iPhone 5. The chip also packs a series of other performance and graphics enhancements. In addition to the A7, the phone includes the M7 motion coprocessor. The M7 "continuously measures motion data" from the phone's accelerometer, gyroscope and compass.
