iPhone 5.

[Revels]

I ordered one.

It does state estimated delivery is from 5th October.
And he has sold 707 of them!!

I didn't read that dispatch part

707 is impressive. Now I just want someone to make a dock.

This is like having a new born baby and making it sleep on the floor. Urgh.

 

[Chip-mk1]

Kinda thinking about downgrading my 5 for a s3 am I mad?

Not if you need the money for something.

 

[C.J]

I've noticed there are loads of sellers on eBay selling cables/car chargers/adapters, but are expected to receive their stock first week in October.

I'll wait a couple of weeks, then order when eBay is flooded.

For now, I've got a USB car charger, and I'll take my USB cable with me if I need it.

I feel your pain. The amount of times I've gone to put my iPhone 5 on the old dock on my desk!!

Seeing people on AVF with their 5 in a case. Makes me feel queasy.

I've pre-ordered a Sena slip case for the car. It's better than tossing it in the console and it rattling around.

That's the only time you're allowed a case. Lol.

Lots of ugly in there.

 

[Revels]

Clicked. Saw someone call it 'ip5'. Closed.

 

[Gladdish]

All the cases for the 5 are horrible. I think i'm going to get a pouch to protect it from my keys when it's in my pocket, but actually use it naked. Can't hide it away, it's too nice!

Ordered mine Sunday from phones4u store, dispatched today and receiving it via Royal Fail Special tomorrow

16gb White iPhone 5.

I've got 12 months left of my 4s contract, but phones 4 u dropped my current tariff down end of this month, then the sale of my phone plus phones 4 u's contribution will pay off my contract, so even half way through my contract, I now get unlimited minutes as supposed to 900, and 1gb data as supposed to 500mb (and also unlimited texts of course!)

This for £41 a month. So I get a brand new phone, and more for my tariff, and save £1 a month!! WIN WIN!

BENT iPhone 5

Been a lot of talk about the iPhone 5 on here so thought a few people might find this inersting.

My girlfriend pre-ordered her iPhone 5 and had it delivered on Friday. It's in the black/slate colour, she took it out of the box to find...........

well this video her colleague took speaks for itself



think I've embedded it right?

Re: BENT iPhone 5

The f**k?!

EDIT: Why was the original embedded video an advert for Jackpot Joy?!

Re: BENT iPhone 5

Meh...usual Apple quality control.

Re: BENT iPhone 5

You hadn't embedded right but i edited it for you so it is now

Thanks for that Seb and thanks to Revels who merged that from a new thread I made.

I won't be the only one who put the phone on the desk and tested to see if it was bent

This will be pretty common when people put them in back pockets and sit on them.

 

[Jason_E]

I've always had white since I was 16 so I'm sticking to it. Plus black aluminium is just asking for scratches.

I was only saying yesturday how clear the calls sound through the new phone! So mine must be one of the working ones haha.

 

[Dave Hester]

Thats utterly disgusting tbh

Yeah all iPhone 5's should be 'desk tested'. There's actually stress marks in the aluminium around the volume buttons from the bend and they don't operate properly.

They've told her she'll have to wait 2 WEEKS for a replacement

1st world problems.

FLOL. I just did this.

 

[Ronnie R]

I've made such a EPIC fail.

I was setting my iPhone up at my Mum's last night. Basically done everything there, but it didn't finish pulling down all of my photos from the iCloud. Got a message about 30 minutes after leaving from o2 telling me I've used all my Data. Great!

No internet at mine until 3rd October!

 

[Gavin.]

Anyone else who has transferred to orange find the data connection dodgy?
I have 4 bars and a 3G signal yet it can take minutes to send a simple iMessage.

Facebook reloads or browsing are the same, seems fine and then just stops for a few mins before it carries on.

 

[Gavin.]

Erm.... Yea!

That needs sorting!

 

[Tom]

What has that got to do with iPhone 5?

 

[Dan@M.A.D]

I missed out big time! Could have got the lightning cables from China at around the 50p mark!

The guys quids in on that if he's sold 700+ at £8 each!

 

[DannyR]

I ordered my lightening cable from Apple and it turned up before the phone.

Is there really that much of a shortage?!

 

[Gavin.]

What has that got to do with iPhone 5?

Nothing, it's to do with the network. I just know a few people have switched and wondered if anyone else has had issues.

Was that just from the Sena site?

 

[Rasclart]

I am not going to bother for now. However the missus wants one.

Used the Apple Store Reserve function and managed to bag her a Black 32GB. However she now wants white FFS!!! Back into the pot that goes. Unless anyone near Exeter wants to pretend to be me LOL

 

[ekaJ]

Kinda getting annoyed with the black borders for old sized apps lol.

Give it a month.

 

[Christopher]

Yup.

$25 if you pre-order now. Various colours.

 

[Rubicon_]

Silly question but why are people ordering cables from apple? I thought the one with the charger was good enough, or are they the same and just getting extra?

 

[Jaff.]

Got mine today. Have to say I'm not blown away by it. It's hard to justify the cost of it tbh.

If I get a decent price for my 4s then it will soften the blow a bit but I won't be upgrading to the next one unless there's a major change.

People want extras for the car/work etc etc.
