The first iPhone and iOS 7 reviews are in from news organizations including The Wall Street Journal, USA Today, and The New York Times: Walter S. Mossberg of The Wall Street Journal recommends iPhone 5s “for anyone looking for a premium, advanced smartphone.” He calls the phone’s Touch ID fingerprint sensor “a potentially game-changing hardware feature” and iOS 7 “a radically new operating system.” Ed Baig of USA Today looks at both iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c. On the iPhone 5s, he writes, “Taken in totality, the features new to the iPhone 5s make what I consider to be the best smartphone on the market even better.” He concludes, “I can strongly recommend either new iPhone but especially the 5s.” David Pogue of The New York Times posts two stories. In his iOS review he writes, “The structure, layout and features represent some of Apple’s best work.” In his iPhone review, he calls iPhone 5c “a terrific phone,” noting, “The price is right. It will sell like hot cakes.” On iPhone 5s, he’s impressed with the improved camera and says the best part of Touch ID is “it actually works — every single time, in my tests. It’s nothing like the balky, infuriating fingerprint-reader efforts of earlier cellphones.”
