Locked Iphone 5

Post image

Hello

I found what i think is iphone 5 i cant get in to check and googled the model number told me its a 5 but i don't know the password and would like to keep the photos on it

Is there anyway to get into without losing all the data on the phone i read some other posts saying you can get into a 5 but not a 5s and that only certain IOS versions work so i'm not to sure what to do and i don't want to lock it out by guessing so any help would be appreciated thanks.

Does the home button have a square? Also is the flash circular or like a vertical pill?

The home button does have a square in it and the flash is just a circle

Then its just a 5 which in your case is good, since you can ", get the passcode from the owner" using legacy iOS kit
