The app pictured is definitely letterboxed, compared to other apps that have been pictured running on both devices.

Guessing it's some third party app that's not been updated? Spotify?

i wont lie to anyone, its not groundbreakingly amazing, but then ive had a go with a couple of other phones and neither were they. upgrade time so got one, cant really regret it as it does what i want, and in a way im used to just much faster and slightly better.

may even pay £6.99 for championship manager now as i will have this for 2 years like my last one.

It'll be amazing when 4G is out. Gonna be quick on the move!

Its a shame the UK is fucking slow at getting cool tech out. I'd love Satellite radio for the car

A 4S with better hardware and software then a 5?


nah, no 4G, so not better.


Why are you jabbing on about 4G? its pointless until they do the rollout.


Because it's future proof. The current S3 isn't. Totally pointless to buy a phone without it, imho, imo.


Its not future proof on most networks as the 4G spectrum auction coming up is not going to be compatible with the iPhone 5 so Vodafone, O2 ETC will need a new version of the iPhone for 4G to work on the network. EE it will work fine on.

I think i could have put it better tbh.

I would have amended this sentence to start with

"The new Maps application in iOS 6 is really handsome.

I would have replaced the word handsome with a variety of words, a popular one being.... shit.

yeah id agree with a lot of that. its a massive improvement over my 4, although its not amazing. but then neither is any other phone now. theyre all the same. a repost of previous reposts.

in terms of the battery, ive used it a lot since i got it about 11 this morning and my old 4 which has basically done nothing since then has used more battery pmsl

Very impressed so far, software not so much but few nice iOS6 features, hardware is very nice indeed. Light, thin but built well, compared to old 4 & 4S feels a bit like a toy not a phone.

Only worry is the black anodised parts scratching, don't want to have to use a case. Don't pay £500+ for it to mark like above pic anyways.

No idea who they are, but they need to be educated in the proper use of a hat. What the fuck are they wearing them like that for?

Mine too about an hour

Have you tried restarting your Iphone 5? Mine seems to switch over when I restarted it, may have been coincidence tho!

To be fair if you take a set of keys in anger to most phones you will scratch the hell out of it. He's lucky he did not get caught doing that to the display model.
