The next iPhone/iPad; speculation thread.

Lol at Apple creating a world wide finger print database.

Clever aren't they!

so, jail broken phones may have the fingerprint scanner data compromised?

 

[Mackerfly]

Think we need a poll of who's upgrading from what and etc..
pick keep saying I'm not from my 5 but I know I will end up buying one.

 

[Rob]

Anyone who doesn't even have a four isn't part of the poll for me, FYI. Elite-ist scumbag that I am.

 

[Rubicon_]

I imagine he is on same as me which is:

250mins, unlimited texts and unlimited data.

I never use all my minutes but eat data whilst on the train everyday.

I'm with Seb on this one, no contract works out anywhere near what I end up paying because once you get tariffs with over 2gb data the prices rocket.

But if you use the O2 1gb plan at £37 for the 5s contract the price is not far off.

Thats pretty much it, I'm with with Vodafone though.

 

[Rubicon_]

Even though that works out more expensive?

How do you figure that? Over 2 years I'd of spent £800 for phone and sim. I can cancel whenever I want, so sell the phone and upgrade.

Find a contract that's cheaper than that with an iPhone when first released and I'll believe your stupid comment.

 

[CrippsCorner]

I'll be going from 4S to 5S. £66 per month on EE, ouch.

 

[Gavin.]

I'll be going from 4S to 5S. £66 per month on EE, ouch.

That's mental money! I'll be staying on my £12pm Three contract on a 5.

TBF they have said that the data never leaves the device. One presumes it's also wiped when the phone is wiped.

Fuq dat, is that 4g? Would 3G be cheaper?

 

[.Adam.]

I wonder what the cost of repair will be when the finger print scanner inevitably breaks.

 

[Jay_G]

I wonder what the cost of repair will be when the finger print scanner inevitably breaks.

I Imagine it won't be a lot? Seeing as it will be just some kind of sensor/camera maybe?, with all of the work being done software side. But that's just a guess

 

[Knuckles]

Say, I cut my thumb, so I have a nice big line through my print... Do I have to wait for it to heal before being able to unlock my 5s?

 

[CrippsCorner]

Fuq dat, is that 4g? Would 3G be cheaper?

Yes it would, £19 per month cheaper in fact... but it's only available on a 24 month contract since I got my last one, it seems the entire UK has stopped offering 18 month contracts!? Why the f**k is this. I'm not about to go to 24 months, so I'm gonna have to pay out my arse for a 12 month one.

 

[Knuckles]

I've googled some deals and they don't look too bad £35-42 iirc on 3G. I'm not too arsed about 4g

now. Amphasite, or gay gold?

 

[paddymph]

Say, I cut my thumb, so I have a nice big line through my print... Do I have to wait for it to heal before being able to unlock my 5s?

No. You scan your other fingers/thumb when you first get your phone. Unlock it with that until you heal

64Gb or GTFO

 

[Matt W]

What if you lost your hand in an accident and couldn't unlock your phone to call for help?

 

[GarethM]

Surely you can make a 999 call without unlocking your phone like you can now with current iPhones?

 

[Pint]

Surely you can make a 999 call without unlocking your phone like you can now with current iPhones?

You can?

 

[Ads_172]

Regardless, it just reverts to a passcode. Or you store more than one print (both thumbs).

 

[Herr Flick]

Or just don't have a lock on the phone?

ive never had any form of lock on my phones. Just don't lose them.

 

[SC03OTT]

You can?

You can indeed.

 

[Detail Chris]

Is it a bit worrying having a finger print scanner, trying to decide an think what I could get fucked over with if they used it!?

 

[Pint]

You can indeed.

How?

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

So what crimes are you worried about then?

 

[SC03OTT]

How?

Slide to unlock then press the emergency call button.

 

[Pint]

Just went full r****d. I thought you meant before unlocking it not if you have passcode.

 

[Munson]

Or just don't have a lock on the phone?

ive never had any form of lock on my phones. Just don't lose them.

Good point. I don't plan on losing mine or having it stolen. I also don't plan on buying any apps or music.

 

[Knuckles]

Good point. I don't plan on losing mine or having it stolen. I also don't plan on buying any apps or music.

Then why buy an iPho... Oh! I see what you did there

 

[jesus]

What are the chances of me walking into Apple on the release day afternoon and coming out with a 5s?

 

[Flat Eric]

You've just asked this with GTA too! Lol

 

[jesus]

You've just asked this with GTA too! Lol

Expensive week :dapprove:

 

[DB.]

What are the chances of me walking into Apple on the release day afternoon and coming out with a 5s?

Quite high IMO.

 

[Harpham]

What are the chances of me walking into Apple on the release day afternoon and coming out with a 5s?

What are the chances of me walking into Apple after release day, with my 5, and coming out with a 5C?

(My 5 has started doing that random camera purple streak thing and the home button feels slightly dodgy, so want to get it replaced before the warranty expires)

 

[jesus]

Quite high IMO.

Do you not think they will sell out pretty quickly? That's the impression I always had, I've never had to do it though.

 

[DanFreemanPhoto]

If it was a worthwhile upgrade and a game changer then yeh, but as the 5S is a tiny upgrade and the 5C is just a cheap 5 (which isn't actually cheap at all) I'd be very surprised if they sell out.

 

[Knuckles]

I'm heading to orange on release day but I've got no hopes of coming out with one. I think they'll sell out very quickly

 

[jesus]

I wish they were doing a black & gold one :dapprove: I hate the white.

 

[Munson]

LOL iPhone JPS.
