Say goodbye to "slide to unlock." At today’s press conference, Apple introduced the new iPhone 5S with a biometric lock it claims will revolutionize mobile security. Here’s how it works, and what it means for you.

Right on time, as Apple’s launch event finishes the FCC publishes test documents for its latest hardware. After pawing through the stack we didn’t spot any surprises for the iPhone 5c or iPhone 5s — with their wide LTE compatibility and Bluetooth 4.0 LE covered there’s little missing other than 802.11ac WiFi — or internal photos exposing the new 64-bit A7 chip. Still, there are external pics (a few are included after the break) showing some of the frequency and exposure testing endured by each phone, and enough band information for those interested to stay busy until they actually go on sale.

Expected Apple to officially kill the the 30-pin connector today? Not so fast — the company left the 4s clinging to life as a freebie. The big reveals today, however, were the all new iPhone 5s and lower-cost (and brighter-hued) 5c. You won’t be able to get your hands on the latest iDevices until September 20th, so catch up on all of the news from today’s event in our roundup after the break.

I learned to type on the original Macintosh, worshipped my click wheel iPod, and still believe in Apple TV. I am an enthusiastic Apple evangelist in pretty much every aspect of my life. But I have never been excited about a single Apple announcement until today.

Welcome to the drama, the dilemmas, the sheer disbelief involved in picking accessories to go with your new iPhone. (Yes, an official 30-pin to Lightning adapter really costs that much). We can’t promise to make the choices easy, but we can at least give you a glimpse of some of the bumpers and functional extras that Apple has revealed today, and link you up to the relevant pages on Apple’s store (see the Source links below).
Starting with the iPhone 5c, it’s “unapologetically” plastic to start with, of course, but you can give it extra protection with an additional, colorful mesh-style plastic case. This costs $29 and comes in the same five colors as the phone itself, so you can either match the phone or mix it up with a secondary color. There’s also a black option if you want to tone things down a bit. One more thing: the iPhone 5c gets it’s own Lightning dock, which comes in plain white and costs $29.
Next up: the iPhone 5s, which comes in very different color options — silver, grey or gold — and therefore gets a different set of bumper colors. These cost $49 $39 (correction: $49 is solely for the special (RED) charity case, regular cases are $39), they’re made of leather on the outside and protective microfiber on the inside, and come in softer colors that are a bit tricky to describe (not least because this writer is red-green color blind): some kinda yellow, some kinda peach, some kinda… or just look at the image after the break. Lastly, Apple’s website lists a $29 iPhone 5s dock too, which is cross-compatible with the regular iPhone 5.%Gallery-slideshow83651% %Gallery-slideshow83650%

The iPhone 5s has finally been unveiled. Following an intense buildup of pre-announcement hype and leaks, Apple describes its latest flagship iOS device as the “most forwarding-thinking iPhone yet.” Wondering how the specs compare to the regular ‘ol 5, though? We’re glad you asked because we’ve laid it all out just past the break.
