There's no question Apple's fingerprint reader will garner lots of attention in the coming days, and with good reason: it's an innovative feature - arguably the iPhone's first real hardware innovation in years.
But it still feels, well, small. Maybe that's inevitable; maybe we've seen just about everything a smartphone can do, and small, incremental improvements are all that's left. On the other hand, aren't we all waiting for Apple to wow us again? When was the last time that happened?
The iPhone 5S has exactly what was expected: a faster processor and a better camera ( one that merely catches up to the cameras in some other phones) . Those features aren't wow - they're meh.
