But none the less, I'll still be getting a iPhone for myself, either the 4S or 5 , depending when the 5 arrives here, it has been 3 generations later , so a upgrade is in orderADT wrote:But i won't even trip, i also expected more from the 5
Correct me if I'm wrong, but the 5 will only have dual core processor?

To be fair, I never said anything about Android in my original posts.

I'm pretty sure that applies to only one dimension of the display, it was mentioned in the keynote last night. It's not enough to upset app compatibility.Hman wrote:Older apps will still work too, though they'll be displayed in a letterbox format until an update is issued.
Anyway, I'm not really fussed about who prefers what, I'm just happy that there's some discussion on PCF again. Never owned an Apple device myself, iPhone 5 will be my first.

To comply with the European Commission's insistence that all smartphones must have a microUSB connector, Apple is putting out a Euro-specific adapter for its new Lightning standard. It's turned up in the UK and French stores so far, setting you back £15 / €19 ($25) -- and we imagine it won't be long before some entrepreneurial soul starts buying them in bulk to sell to microUSB users Stateside.
engadget wrote:While Apple was busy announcing the iPhone 5, it left out mention of whether the device would use the recently approved (and Apple-designed) nano-SIM standard. Sure enough, the leaks were right once more -- Apple is relying on that even tinier subscriber module for GSM, HSPA and LTE networks. The company also makes clear that there's no going back, so you'll have to chuck your earlier micro-SIM card if you've got one. Such is the price of progress.

Re: iPhone 5 officially announced
My take on it...
Its a decent upgrade. I, like the majority, did expect more from Apple but they probably researched the US population to death and found that people just wanted a longer screen, thinner profile and a few software increases. They have delivered a solid phone, not a ground breaking one just a solid one. Now if the Android makers (besides HTC) could just get around to making sexy shells for their phones...
Despite what I said in the Samsung vs Apple thread I am seriously considering getting a iPad. The Android variants just dont stack up in terms of hardware and software.

Re: iPhone 5 officially announced
In a country where 55% of the population is overweight? Yeah, Americans definitely are not fat.
Olympians are not a good reflection of the average population.
You could say the SA government was brilliant and not corrupt by cherry picking and then only focussing on the 10 officials who are not corrupt....

Something like 61% or more of SA is categorised as obese so we're in no position to point fingers.Monty wrote:In a country where 55% of the population is overweight? Yeah, Americans definitely are not fat.

Anyway, back on topic. Performance looks great.

Re: iPhone 5 officially announced
I lied, I'm back.
Of the iPhone users here, how many are thinking of getting the new iPhone in the next month?
