The claim is 44% greater colour saturation. Near full sRGB I guess. I can definitely see the difference either way,

Got my iPhone 5 in Germany on base. 
Took about an hour to switch everything to English, but so far everything's running perfectly.
Apps work virtually instantaneously. Goddamn.
This is my very first iPhone btw.

But they can have their friends come buy it though. It happens lol

There isn't enough time in the day to listen to 200 albums a year. OK, maybe once per album, but who listens to music like that?

Oh god this is making me cringe. Not sure if I can make it through the whole video.
Wear and tear is normal and expected, but fuck this out-of-the-box scuff/chip business. No matter how small and how much you try to ignore it turns what's supposed to be a joy into a sinking feeling when you catch it. :/
This kind of thing is magnified in my eyes as there aren't even any Apple Stores in my country where I can just stroll in and trade. OT but in my case I also hold my breath when I turn screens on for the first time because of my history with stuck pixels, I've had one of those little fuckers in too many of my electronic devices. Crossing my fingers the iPad I ordered won't have any display problems.

Finally secured two phones (white 16gb). Now I'll impatiently wait for next week (and I won't forgive you Apple for putting my country in the b-list).

My 4S now feels like a breeze block.
Hrmm, I guess if light has less material to travel through it stands to reason it could look more colorful or sharper. Good call.

Didn't you backup your contacts to icloud? If so, just restore from your iCloud backup and everything should be good to go.

Word. I'm in downtown Atlanta too but I'm with Sprint, as this is one of the few cities where they have 4G LTE. Interested in seeing how fast they are.

Wow. That blows away my home DSL connection with AT&T.
I just fixed my unresponsive home button a couple days ago. Make sure to take off any screen protector or case if it surrounds the home button first. What I did was get a can of condensed air an spray the hell out of the home button, pressed it down and sprayed all around the diameter of it. I had read the reason it becomes unresponsive was because of dust and grit building up in there. Worked like a charm.
*bro fist*
Very noticeable leap in speed upgrading from an iPhone 4 and the speaker seems much louder too. Quite impressed so far.
32gb black acquired. very small scuff on left side above volume knob. I ain't even mad. I wasn't expecting the phone to feel so light. I might prefer the feel of the 4 in my hand.
There's a free third party google music app if you search the App Store. No idea if it's any good though.
Man. Faster than my Fios.
I'll admit, I don't listen to a lot of it as much as I would like to, but I put it all on shuffle and listen that way often so stuff I haven't heard comes up sometimes.
Blows away my ADSL2 connection (15Mbps, 1.5Mbps) yet I still must connect to wifi for apps over 50mb.
Turn by turn works GREAT, very smooth re-routing, all the roads I drive on (to work at least) are on there. 3D maps are like butter on this thing.
Need to download some games mang....!
My office is literally right below an AT&T cell tower....I'd be curious to see how good the speeds are.

Seriously lol. Get unlimited data and use your phone as a personal wifi hotspot for life!
Picking my phone in 30 min!
Mine's out for delivery on a Fedex truck. Sitting here, waiting near the door like a puppy awaiting its master.
I hear the clunking of a delivery truck.
I see a blanket of white breeze by my window.
The engine clunking subsides. It idles. Close. So close.
I get up, excited, like a kid on Christmas. I jet to the door. I peer out, and there, there it is.
A motherfucking USPS truck.
Fuck.

Of course!
Few minutes south of Boston. AT&T's tower is down at the end of the street.
I'll try that out, thanks. I didn't know if there was a way to minimize it and continue listening. Saw a protip about how to listen to youtube videos or podcasts with the browser minimized and they still had access to the player controls. Didn't know if that was possible with Google Music.
That's insane. I'm curious how quickly people will hit their caps on AT&T and Verizon LTE. I'm on Sprint so I can use as much as I want
Just as soon as I get LTE, LOL
Get the amazon thing then. They have a limit of 250,000 songs I think.
I don't get why they should be worried about hitting there caps just because they are LTE. To me it just means they are getting the data faster and more reliable. If they currently aren't hitting the caps, as long as they don't change they consumption habits they shouldn't have a problem no?
I talked to the rep at AT&T and he said that the soft cap before throttling moves up to 5 GB for those on unlimited plans when u get a iPhone 5. But since it's arbitrary and subject to change depending on how much data usage people actually consume not to expect it to stay that way past the new year lol
People might feel more compelled to stream more stuff for this very reason.

Rayman Jungle Run runs at 3GS res on iPhone 5. Not even Retina.
I hope this isn't a common bug that other Retina apps have. Ugh.

I just got my phone, and no scuffs! Now I really need the answer for this, I am scared to turn it on otherwise:
