Mine is on the truck for delivery today

I'm really liking the iPhone 5 so far, it feels much lighter in hand and the bigger screen is really nice.

I like to call it a "Taller" screen, haha. Does it feel larger? I can't wrap my head around a taller screen without widening it. Taki's should land soon and I intend to break it before making up my mind.

I think it still feels very nice in hand, the screen is "taller" but the overall size of the phone is still comfortable in hand and in the pocket.

Because they decreased the size of the bezel, the screen got larger but the phone is not that much taller. I personally don't even notice the size different that often except on apps that require more scrolling (facebook, mail, safari, twitter), and the only reason I notice it there is because I was used to how much of the content was visible in my iPhone 4. It, so far, has actually been a nice improvement of being able to see more messages, emails, posts, tweets, etc. I was not a fan of increasing the screen size, so though how Apple increased the size of the phone was a good compromise. However, people that want a big screen will still likely not be satisfied if they didn't like the size of the iPhone 4

Really good feedback there, thank you.

Got my phone in yesterday, played with it for about 10 minutes and then the home button is going whacko on me, Siri popping up, pictures randomly taken, voice control turning on and off. Getting it replaced shortly, but for the first 10 minutes of playing with it, this phone is badass. Amazing how LTE is faster than my wifi at home!

Its funny iphone people keep saying this... I guess the samsung commercial hits home when they say "yeah.. we've had 4G for a while" lol...

I was pleasantly surprised as well. Even more so that LTE has been added and so far there hasn't been a negative impact on my battery life. I'm still able to go an entire day without charging my phone.

Ordered mine from AT&T in the 14th and still no word on when it's going to ship. Should have waited in line

Adriftpanda · 09-26-2012, 06:08 PM

Okay, got my swap phone... Badass phone

irratebass · 09-27-2012, 04:28 AM

Still no pics???

Is there a way to post pictures from the iPhone/iPad to the forum? I'm sure I'm setting myself up for some anti-Apple people to poke fun if we can't.

You can upload a photo as an attachment using either an existing photo or taking a new one.
