Damn, if I sold my 16GB iPhone 4S for 350 and upgraded to a 32GB iPhone 5...that would be 400 dollars.
I guess I'm waiting until next year

The matte finish on anti-glare screen protectors really mess up screen clarity imo, but not having to wipe off fingerprints all the time is pretty convenient.Hrm, what about the Ultra Optics? Anti-glare seems to be useful...
Me. I figure I'd be using this phone for a while anyhow.So who else is a crazy storage hoarder and is getting the 64 GB model?
Yeah, the random reviews on the iPhone 5 ones say to wait for the Ultra Optics so I have no idea. How are the Ultra Crystal ones?The matte finish on anti-glare screen protectors really mess up screen clarity imo, but not having to wipe off fingerprints all the time is pretty convenient.
Looks like they don't even have Ultra Optics for the iPhone 5 available anyway. Just crystal and oleophobic.
Is anyone here actually switching from black to white due to Scuffgate?
Black Friday.Can't bring myself to. The black is just too slick this time. I felt the same about white last time. All or nothing.
Also, out for delivery!

Has anyone sold a phone on Gazelle? Was the process easy? Also, do I take my sim card out? I'm not clear on how that works when selling a phone.
Kinda curious about this too. Was looking for an easy way to sell my 4.
Freakin' 5 just dropped in Earth City. Gah, it's like 20 minutes away :l
Stand strong my black brother. Stay warm out there.Is anyone here actually switching from black to white due to Scuffgate?
Yep. Though it might look like I still have space, that space is only there due to iOS' dumb way of updating apps (have to download the whole app to update, this works great when infinity blade has an update!) Tired of having to delete music to make room for apps, and having to delete apps to make room for music.

They are probably throwing it around like a boomerang trying to bag kangaroos.
I am going 32. There is so much streaming services now I feel I only really need to store stuff for the rare instance I am without network coverage, and content created on the phone. Unless they are out of them, then 64 all the way. Fuck it I might as well get 64 right?
Oh yeah I am going to expense this bitch.
My only dilemma is giving up unlimited for tethering. I think I will do that too. Would rather pay $10 for more data than be throttled!
I'm in line!
Ask people about Scuff Gate!I'm in line!
Even if you didn't have that issue, I would definitely upgrade to 64 GB if you're sitting at under 2 GB extra space left. At that point, you're making download/sync decisions based on space. I like being able to never worry about how much space I have left. $400 is a lot, but at least I know I'll get a lot of that money back when I resell it.
How's it looking?

Yeah, I was going back and forth between 32 or 64 or 32 with iTunes Match or 64 with iTunes Match or something and ultimately figured to go with 64. It's kind of ridiculous how much more expensive the size increase is though. Maybe iOS6' poor reception will lead to greater price competition in the future? Probably not considering Apple
iFixit seem to think scuffgate is legit on the chamfered edge, but not the sides.
I have come to terms with this. Whatever happens, happens. Stay strong everybody.
To me, that looks like the edge can get dulled and cause it to look chipped.
Who else is going to rock a 16 gig?
My iPad is 32 gig and it feels like more than enough space. Most of my Heavy duty apps will live on that device.
Also, I have almost no music.

That a best buy or a phone store?
It's the finish, aka scuffage. I don't think anyone thinks the metal is chipping away.Yeah I wonder if it is actually gouged or if the finish is just worn off.

I updated my IP4 to iOS 6, and I can't find a... "backup and then erase phone for resale" button.
Does such a thing exist, or is there some long series of hoops I need to jump through?
The best explanation I've heard is that the chamfering caused the finish to weaken, resulting in it scuffing easily along that edge.

My wife just left me to get inline. I've been drinking... and I'm tired. This doesn't feel right.
Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings
Edit: Backup first obviously, in whichever way you prefer. Cloud or local.
Settings>General>Reset
Yep. When you activate the 5 you'll have the option to restore from backup or set up as new phone.
So I backup in Itunes, and then erase on the phone itself, and then it will restore to the IP5? Thanks.
GAF, lets do this.
If it seriously scuffs that easily, I will cry.
