I've been having a issue with the i5, now and then the camera flash gets out of sync. To fix the sync issue you have to do a soft reset. Small issue, but is a pain when you need to get a quick pic but can't.

Good to see Apple updating something useless like 3D imagery and not actually improve the amount of information their maps don't have. This crap pisses me off but not quite enough to plunk down $600 out of contract.
To whoever asked a few days ago- I've had no luck with convincing VZW to let me upgrade early. I've toyed with the idea of paying the ETF and moving to ATT or Sprint. I'd still come out $200 on top but neither carrier comes close to Verizon in terms of coverage, especially Sprint. My employer issued phone is Sprint and I never use it because it never has a signal. I usually end up calling customers from my personal line and hope they answer with the blocked caller ID. |

Quick correction... I said AT&T's LTE was quick. It's not. It's downright fast. I didn't realize how fast.
And yes, I know Android phones blah blah blah two years ago blah blah blah. Frankly, 3G is adequate for my mobile needs so LTE speeds are just a nice bonus. And Rattles... Everyone tells me I'd get used to a bigger phone. I don't doubt I would, but it's not what I want. |

Ive yet to have any problems with the maps after 6 long drives over an hour each way with turn by turn navigation, it actually rocks. I think that map-gate is overblown from the pussified media to jump at anything bad from any new phone.

Found my first annoyance. Siri thinks I'm in St. Louis, GA when I ask for the weather.

I have no idea. The notification bar is also correct. I'm guessing its a weird hiccup with the searching. Siri basically does a Wolfram Alpha search, right? Either that or I haven't set up Siri right. (Side note, I look forward to assigning myself a nickname)
I'll have to search Wolfram Alpha for "St Louis weather" and see if the error lies there. Edit: the Siri picture does NOT show GPS active. The second picture is just of the weather app to show the correct temp. The GPS arrow is shown there by the battery meter. Last edited by scaryfastskier; 10-06-2012 at 12:58 PM. |

Im glad my phone has a plastic back. Its what allows the NFC to work and allows for a replaceable battery. What's the point of glass and aluminium anyways if you're going to stick it in an otterbox anyway.

What's the point of buying a sports car if you getting it with an automatic transmission?

Hey, if you don't mind that your phone has the same build quality as a tv remote, more power to you. Personally, I don't use a case. I don't like the plastic feeling in my hand. Didn't like it on the 3GS and don't like it in a case.
