    2. Touch ID - the fingerprint scanner

    3. A new M7 coprocessor for efficiency
    The iPhone 5s' A7 processor is supported by its M7 coprocessor that takes care of measuring motion data from the accelerometer, gyroscope, and compass sensors of the phone, sending them to new fitness apps without waking up the A7 processor, leading to improved battery life. It also recognises different types of motion.

    4. A new iSight camera
