A number of users reporting dents and scuffs in the aluminum in their iPhone 5 out of the box on the black one. Just goes to show how crap aluminum can be polycarbonate is way better as you don't get other paint work showing underneath if it is scratched. Poor quality control from Apple again in China. Sorry it's just not worth that amount of money. Fools gold. As for better than Quad Cores. Hmmm says Intel the ones whom recently put their single core processor in a Motorola phone and its benchmarks were as weak as a lady shave.

The thread title should be change to "I Hate Apple Oh So Much"

And to you Bono...you have posted way too much "hate Apple" opinions already. And people here get it....you hate Apple/iPhone. Please reserve these space for future iP5 user.

Could everybody just move on??? (if you still can)

@titus1,

If anyone here is looking for buying an iphone 5 and wants to discuss will have to look elsewhere. You will probably see 1 genuine comment in this thread per 10+ spam comments.


PS: This is the best parody so far

I think everybody is hating on Apple, including me, and every tech enthusiast with some brains in his head, not because the iPhone is a bad device, or a totally inferior product, but because Apple are making way more market success than they actually deserve.

Unfair! As simple as it gets!

you have a right to ignore


I choose to exercise that right after reading the word ignore funnily enough. You could have posted tonights winning lotto numbers before they're drawn and i refuse to read them.

all im asking is stop picking on people like us with apple products


Totally agree with you, nobody should be doing that especially on Esato imo. Which is why i find it difficult to speak to people like Prom1 (aka Hardened) and prefer not to speak to them or be lured into a battle of quotes and replies until posting a reply here takes an eternity to compose an arguement.

Nah, not me anymore im afraid. I did that on this forum and other forums for many years and ive grown out of it. Getting old now. Which then brings me back to the topic in question.

Got my hands on the iPhone 5 today for the first time, a rather rich business owner who runs his business on the same street where im a store manager came in my store with it and i asked him if i could check it out. As always i loved it, nice feel as always and the black frame felt much premium than the usual dull old silver surround. But was i impressed ? no.

As always i loved the phone, would love to own one even if it couldnt be my main phone due to its limitations. Also i couldnt own one while Apple continue their vile behaviour in the industry. I simply could not support that with my financial investment in their products.

If anyone else wanted to keep things simple I did the following:

1) Bought Sim Free iP5
2) Walked into CPW and bought a nano sim for £15
3) Sales Rep transferred my pay monthly number onto the new Sim
4) Happy me, was working within 20 mins!

Simples!




That's great Jiggy,

Did u have any issues getting it?

There seems to be ample stock of this one
Walked into my local O2 shop yesterday and the place was virtually empty, with only 2 customers and loads of iPhones in stock
Went for the white one this time around, it's a thing of beauty
