Man, that ifixyouri video was hard to watch. Good to know the phone can take much more of a beating than the 4 though. I presigned for my phone so I'm gonna be sitting here at work all day knowing my phone is just sitting there :/

Superiority, natural movement & ergonomics.
After AT&T told me last night it would ship in 14-21 business days, I went to the store this morning at 6 AM to wait. When I finally got in, they said I couldn't cancel the preorder, or attach another phone to my number. I had to wait for the preorder.
Got home to check AT&T order status and find a tracking number saying it was out for delivery. Happy days.
What in the flying fuck did you do to your beautiful phone?

The headphone wire won't get in the way of the screen.
Bump to new page.
I really like the look and feel of iPhone 5, but I think I still like 4's better. I liked the black with silver band contrast, the glass on the back, and even the extra weight which made it feel solid. Maybe it's also the build quality doesn't seem quite as good with the 5. There is that nice scratch on the front bezel that is hard to miss (grrr), but also the volume/power buttons feel a little loose (they were rock solid on the 4).
There is good too. The screen size makes more of a difference than I thought it would. And I'm so glad the headphone jack is on the bottom where it belongs (mind blown!). I knew I wouldn't be as impressed going from 4 to 5 as I was going from 3G to 4, but this is still a pretty sweet phone

Well who expected the 6th iPhone to be called iPhone 5, right?
Because once people realize putting their phones in their pockets upside down with the screen facing your leg is the right and most natural way, a bottom headphone jack makes sense.
They finally had the room to move it there now that the charge port is smaller.

dafuq is this?
So dramatic! So elegant!
Take that shit off. For all our sakes.
lmao
Okay guys I'm looking to buy my first smart phone and I'm eyeing the iphone 5.
I'm having massive issues finding a carrier/plan that fits what I want.
What I want:
Unlimited Texting
Don't need a lot of talking to other cell phones/land lines
4-6 GB's of Data plan I'm guessing.
Currently I'm on my sisters family plan on a non smart phone and I pay 20 dollars a month, which is done through Verizon. I'm not sure if it ends up being cheaper if I just go my own path for an individual plan, or if I try to stay on hers, and add the iphone 5 onto it.
I don't care which carrier I get, and I live in Denver Colorado in the zip 80241.(If that helps you guys out)
I'm a broke ass, so it being cheap monthly is crucial to me. I can't see myself paying more than 50 a month.

Had to stop. Stopped at the 'miss your pocket test'.
I don't get the people putting screen protectors on their phones. I've had my 4 for two years now and there isn't a scratch on the screen. The 5's glass will be even more durable since its likely Gorilla Glass 2
Just got back. OMG THE HOTNESS. It's really amazing how thin and light it is, you can't appreciate it until you get it in-hand. It honestly feels like a mock-up, hard to believe it's a working unit at first.
Both the black and white units are stunning, honestly I would have been happier with either. But decided to try my luck with black and rejected two units for minor imperfections before I got lucky on the third try. They actually had Apple engineers from Cupertino in the store who were studying the units I was rejecting. Attention to detail!

Was that guy still asleep when you came out?

Not gonna happen unless you go prepaid which means you're gonna pay $650+ for an unlocked iPhone.
Most people put there phone in their pocket top first, it's more intuitive to pull it out that way to pull it up to your face when you get a call.
This is good news. That means they'll probably working hard to fix the scuffing issue.
Enjoy your phone, Gary!
I'm pretty sure that there are scratches but you never looked hard enough maybe on purpose because you don't want to see the scratch.
really? wow.
I can't get over how beautiful this thing is.
Guys, I can't...I can't.. put... it down.

Sprint $80 plan is the closet you are going to get to what you want.
They knew Gary would be there.
Really? I thought ATT lets you do prepaid, but still get it for $199.99 if I was doing it right on their site.
If you guys bailed out before the video ends, the glass only cracked AFTER two drops above his head and a final time when he hurled it at the floor from above shoulder height! The phone was still functional afterwards too!
there's not a single scratch on my 4s screen either...
You coulda gotten more man...
I was once like you. Dropped my phone off the coach ONE time about a foot and I have a hairline crack across me entire screen.
On the 4s is way more probable since it is only ≥1 year old but i'm pretty sure that if you are not extremely careful with your phone it has scratches.
Errm, no. The whole reason they subsidize the phone for you is because you sign a contract with them.
But if they fix the issue going forward, what does that do for those of us that are getting our iPhones by UPS and don't have the option of rejecting the phone? For myself, I'm planning on taking copious pictures with my point and shoot when I get it of the phone itself and if there are any issues, they'll be documented so I can bring it to Apple at some point when they sort it out and get a new one.
NSFW man ..
I've had my 4 for over two years and there aren't any scratches on the screen. I can put it under light, rotate it around looking for them and nothing. If scratches are there (which is possible) they are undetectable to the human eye.
That's not to say my phone doesn't have scratches. It has a few around the 30pin connector region since my aim sucks
The question is, why was it on top in the first place?
Ugh, when will google release an update forChrome on iOS? The wasted screen space suxxxx
Yeah thanks for this. I guess smart phones are just not for me yet. Sucks being a college student lol. Can't afford shit!
I'm not american, so there might be better deals out there, hopefully someone can give you better details.
And yes, those deals suck. I pay $65 for 250 minutes, Unlimited Evenings and Weekends, Unlimited Text and Picture Messaging, 6 GB LTE, CID/VM in Canada for Rogers....and I still think I am getting robbed.
