Launched today, the new iPhone 5S has the same 4-inch screen and overall design as the iPhone 5 (which is discontinued) but has a completely new feature set.
The 5S name follows the standard iPhone convention of following up a numbered model with an improved "S" version.

In addition to the white and black (space grey, apparently) variants, there is also a new gold and white version.
New is that the iPhone 5s includes dual-band 802.11 a/b/g/n Wi-Fi (and you get the Bluetooth 4.0 also found in the old iPhone 5).

iPhoto, iMovie, Pages, Numbers and Keynote are now available free with the purchase of iPhone 5S (we guess nobody was buying them)
iPhone 5S processor and graphics
There's a 64-bit Apple A7 chip on board with more than a billion transistors (32-bit and 64-bit apps are supported) It is an incredible 56 times as fast as the original iPhone and twice as fast as the iPhone 5.
The first-of-its-kind chip packs twice as many transistors in a piece of silicon roughly the same size as the A6 - 102mm squared.
