iPhone 5s

Anyone who has postponed buying an iPhone 5s now has a sweet deal to consider from RadioShack. Starting on Friday, stores will offer Apple's latest iPhone with 16GB of storage for just $99.99. Of course, in order to qualify for this subsidized sale price a two-year service agreement must be initiated with a wireless carrier.

iPhone 5s buyers can choose between AT&T, Sprint or Verizon to take advantage of the deal. Not only is RadioShack offering 50 percent off, but anyone upgrading can trade in a used smartphone for instant store credit. Depending on the appraisal, owners of the 16GB iPhone 4s can get up to $100 and the 16GB iPhone 5 can be traded in for up to $175.

Best Buy has been offering a lot of deals on Apple products the last few months, and today it has announced one of its best deals since the launch of the iPhone 5s. The retailer is offering "a minimum $150 Best Buy gift card when you trade in any working iPhone 5 or iPhone 4s and purchase an iPhone 5s 16GB for just $1 with a 2-year agreement".

The deal is in-store only and quickly ends on March 1, 2014, so you only have two days to take advantage. Your iPhone 4s or iPhone 5 must be in good working condition, meaning it powers on, has no water damaged and no cracked display. You are also responsible for removing any data from your device before trading it in. The fine print also states, "must use gift card toward the purchase of your iPhone 5s with 2-year agreement," but it doesn't say it has to be a 16GB model (You can read all the fine print here). This means you should also be able to put your $150 gift card towards a 32GB model, which would make it only $100. Just make sure you call ahead to check if your local Best Buy has the phone you want in stock, and that they're participating in the trade-in program, before you make any trips.

Starting Sunday, February 16, through Saturday, February 22, Best Buy will be discounting all iPhone models by $50. This means Best Buy shoppers will be able to nab an iPhone 5 for free, an iPhone 5c for $50 or the iPhone 5s for only $150, when they sign up for a new two-year agreement. The sale also includes all three major carriers AT&T, Sprint, or Verizon Wireless.

Customers can also receive a $50 gift card if they they reserve an iPhone at a Best Buy retail location, Best Buy Mobile specialty store or at BestBuy.com before February 15th.

Slow motion video capability has been touted as one of the key features of the iPhone 5s camera. Apple has designed the new video mode to take advantage of the latest iPhone hardware and iSight camera. Recording and editing slow motion with iOS 7 results in quarter speed video highlights, thanks to 120 frame per second recording.

Using slow motion is even possible on the iPhone 5 and iPhone 5c, albeit with only 60 frames per second recording for half speed video. This is thanks to the iOS 7 jailbreak tweak Slo-mo Mod available on Cydia for free. So how can iPhone users record slow motion video in the iOS 7 Camera app?
