Photographic authority dpreview published their in-depth review of the Canon Rebel T5i (EOS 700D). They are not very happy with the hybrid AF performance in live view and video modes. These is what they liked:

• Comprehensive touchscreen interface that is intuitive and efficient
• High image quality with good balance between detail and noise reduction in JPEG output
• Good subject tracking AF in viewfinder shooting mode (compared to mirrorless competition)
• 5 fps with ample buffering in JPEG-only mode
• Very responsive operation, with menu access available even when buffer is full
• Good-looking video output with manual exposure and audio controls
• Built-in lens correction for vignetting and CA
• Effective HDR, lowlight and noise reduction multi-exposure modes
• Wireless strobe triggering via built-in flash
• Eye sensor to toggle LCD on and off
• Built-in stereo mics
• External microphone socket
• Updated LCD screen minimizes fingerprint smudges from touchscreen use
• High quality raw converter in software bundle

The Rebel T5i (EOS 700D) got an overall score of 76% and a silver award. The sample pictures gallery is here.
