Holy shit, they opened up like 30 new iPhone 5s, each one had scuffs. In the end people took the scuffed phones and got free AppleCare from the store.

Eating and unboxing

That sounds cool.

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.

Really? That IS a strange bug.

Uh oh

 

[jcm]

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

Anyone? D:

I don't think you can. I turned mine on, and the first thing it did was activate.

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?

It's not exactly beyond the pale to suggest that faster, more reliable service encourages greater consumption.

Ugh, what. I just bought that.

Did a speed test and got 21 down and 14 up. I'm on AT&T in the Indianapolis area.

I'm pretty impressed because the download speeds are way faster and the upload speeds are way way faster than my home network using Comcast.

Grabbed a pic.

 

[spink]

had mine for 12 hours and the home button is already fucked.
it had been fucked on my 4 for over 6 months but my jailbreak let me work around it.

pain in the ass

 

[Flo_Evans]

hmm any ideas of how to merge 2 iCloud backups... or just download all the photos from one?

When something works better and faster, you tend to use more of it. I'm not saying everyone's going to instantly go over, I'm just interested to see how data usage increases. I'd guess if the carriers release data on that, that you'll see a pretty big spike starting today.

By 10:30AM.... my arse.

Sad. I guess I'll wait until Wednesday then.

Same boat here.. Last time I asked UPS about it they said home deliveries are only guaranteed by the end of the day even if it says an earlier time.

Hmm... Is anything stuck under it or something?

 

[Clipse]

Best day ever? Maybe.

Walk into Verizon store around 10:30. No lines and only 64GB iPhone's left.

 

[Cloudy]

I'm upgrading from 4s. Can I run a backup of 4s on itunes and then restore on the 5?

Or should i start new?

You can even do it via icloud. But do it in itunes if you have any apps that have been pulled from the store.

Sure I can see that, but they did increase the cap so maybe that will offset it. I guess in my case I don't really see my data usage increasing much when I'm not on Wifi.

Spoiler

I may be wrong though

 

[Branson]

I got my phone around 930 this morning. It's fucking fast and sexy wtf. Coming from a 3GS this is mind blowing.

 

[Solideliquid]

Out for delivery! How's the AT&T LTE in Phoenix?

Btw all these posts had me thinking how 10 years ago if you purchased an apple product people scoft at you for investing in a dying company.

 

[spink]

Hmm... Is anything stuck under it or something?

nope. I'll be going to the apple store asap. I better not get any grief since it was a preorder from my carrier

 

[undecided]

So I guess we are not getting iPhone 5 bumpers anytime soon?

Only case I can really stand..

 

[Mairu]

Any LTE impressions from anyone in the bay area? Calling Gary Whitta!

 

[LiK]

LTE impressions for Verizon?

 

[jcm]

I'm getting about 20/10 on AT&T LTE in Washington, DC, using the speedtest.net app. It's basically the same speed as my 5Ghz 802.11N wifi on Comcast. I think I may need to upgrade from my 250MB plan.

It's protected my screen but scuffed the fuck outta my sides. Go naked like a man!

 

[chickdigger802]

all y'all folks in atlanta, how's LTE there for AT&T?

 

[Horse Detective]

Is my phone beautiful Gaf?

I want a high quality thin slip case.

Superior white = do you even have to ask?

Great. About 20 down and 20 up.

Called it. I've posted in other threads about the whole "letterboxing" not going to be 100% perfect and bugs will happen, and people were calling me out on "apple wouldn't let that shit fly", even though the exact same thing happened when the 4S and iPad3 launched (ChuChu Rocket rendering as if the device is only 480x320).

Expect to see a rash of updates for a ton of apps as people see how their apps now perform on 5.

 

[DoubleTap]

Are you sure about the pulled apps? When I moved my phone purchases to my iPad via iCloud it included iMame.

 

[DrFunk]

Great. About 20 down and 20 up.

...for now. Wait till all 2 million of us get situated on the network

 

[Kaladin]

So I got my iPhone and it scared me at first because I could only get 3G. I called the local Verizon store to confirm that the LTE is on here, and they told me to try a soft reset to get it to show up. I did and it's working fine.....just an FYI for anyone that gets the same.

 

[tmdorsey]

...for now. Wait till all 2 million of us get situated on the network

Quite you.

 

[CliqWriter]

Make sure you report back.

I'm downtown atl as well. I'll post Verizon speeds. When mine shows up

 

[Horse Detective]

show us the back sean!

So dramatic! So elegant!

Had to do a double take to even notice it wasn't a 4S.

Black = Superior

Screen protector looks like ass. It's not even close to lined up...

 

[MajorPain]

Anyone on ATT LTE in Chicago? How is it? Hopefully better than there 3G.

 

[Red UFO]

Screen protector looks like ass.

My thoughts too. Take that shit off, iPhone screens are good against scratches and that won't protect you against the real danger, shattering.

I got a message that some things could not be restored via icloud and just assumed it was those

 

[IHaveCandy]

If anybody is planning to return an out of the box scuff, they should try to test if they can easily lightly scratch the metal with a key. Not so much to make them question returning it. I am curious if the out of the box scuffs are due to manufacturing or due to the coloring coming off easily.

Wait, why is the headphone jack on the bottom?
