ohh wow, the 4S will be 16GB at $99?

 

one of my friends is switching form Tmobile to one of the other three that carry the iPhone.

Which would you recommend??

He's thinking sprint since he can actually get unlimited data on it.

 

For most people unlimited data is overrated

 

I think that's stupid that AT&T is doing that. I just wish Verizon would have a unlimited plan even if I have to pay more. AT&T Internet in Texas blows compared to Verizon. But I'm grandfathered in the unlimited plan :/

 

So, take the cost of a $600 phone and divide the savings amongst the cost of a set data plan....not financially worth it. And they know it.

 

Haters gonna hate....considering that Nokia's design can clearly seen as being inspired by earlier iPod minis and Nanos with the rounded edges and design.

 

i had a friend that i havent spoke to in about 2 years call me all the way from new york about how to preorder an iPhone.

hes coming from an HTC Evo.

 

Is AT&T the exclusive carrier?

Have to say, LTE is a very very nice upgrade. Depending on my location if I'm on 4G the minimum is ~12 Mbps, I've seen just over 30 Mbps before. Using 3G feels like dial-up in comparison now. Luckily I get 4G nearly everywhere I go.

Definitely not the same phone, lot of upgrades. Apple's one-phone lineup somehow works well like this I think.... it's not just bigger, but there are important new changes. The fact that the design is still similar doesn't alienate people as much.

 

I think 4.3" would have been a perfect screen size as well... I feel like my Nexus at 4.65" is great when watching videos or looking at pictures but at times it's too much.

Will the next iPhone have even higher resolution as well as a wider screen?

 

No it won't, would be a really big pain for developers.

 

You serious? AT&T hasn't been the exclusive carrier for a long time now.

 

How so?

I should rephrase that.... will AT&T have exclusive rights to sell the new iPhone for a set amount of time?

 

Nope, not like that either anymore.

It'll be available to all at launch (except tmobile)

 

From what I hear it's a pain because you have to program the apps to support multiple resolutions when you start having differing screen resolutions.

Before it wasn't so bad because it was just doubling the resolution.

I dunno, ask Sly since he is a developer.

 

Am I feel like the screen size upgrade they made is a joke and that they are still behind the times? I love the looks of the phone. I can't go so far backwards in screen size. I had a screen that was that wide 4 phones ago. I didn't think they would make the phone much wider, figured only like a 1/4", but figured they would at least do something. I was hoping to actually be able to consider one this time around but I guess not.

 

IOs6 works with non registered udids.

 

You were going backwards anyways, so what you whining about?

 

Probably not, the width of the iPhone is based a hand size and being able to use your thumb to navigate across the screen.

 

any more advice on sprint vs att vs verizon??

anyone have experience with sprint??

 

AT&T has a larger lte network but pricing is not worth it. customer service is absolute shit. after 4 years I will be switching to sprint. unlimited data, 2 lines, unlimited txt for 127 and their network is very robust.

 

I haven't had service in my home for 2 years. even after numerous calls, microcells and AT&T promising I would after the new network deployed

 

Get sprint, enjoy the delay and sound quality of voice-over-ip. Better prices. My company has sprint, we all hate it

I have at&t, I don't like it either. Verizon is the best, but I'm not wiling to go the CDMA route... believe it or not, I love to talk and use my internet at the same time, it helps me in my business. Plus GSM and ability to add any sim I'd like when I travel = win.

But what I really don't understand is how the prices go up every year!!! instead of down, the technology is improving, and prices keep climbing higher.

 

i forget is sprint cdma also??

thought this was funny

 

for those of you that want iOS 6 now!

Anyone have experience with straight talk and the iPhone?

 

IIRC, this isn't a problem with LTE

 

Forget Sprint unless you live and work in the same area and Sprint has a good signal. All you have to do is look at the coverage map. ANd if you look at their coverage map on their website. You'll see just how eph'd their website is to start with, takes FOREVER to fracking load.

 

so we can order at midnight from either apple or att.com? and they will deliver it to your house in a week?

any idea when the phone cases will be released? screen protectors?

 

woo, I have a dumb question... ready...set.....go...

Since iPhone 5 now only support nano sim...and let's say I'll preorder from att @ midnight, and I get the phone delivered to me.... Erm... now what? No sim card. Or will they make me go and pick up the phone at near by at&t store?

 

This has been the case with every golden master of iOS

 

All iPhones come with a sim card. When you set up the phone it will transfer over the service to it.

 

midnight PT time... 3am ET time... I guess I'll try my luck tomorrow morning at work. I'm too old not to get my beauty rest.

 

Expensive Ipod Touch....

im not up for an upgrade, how much will it cost me to buy an iphone5?

 

^200 for 16gb, 300 for 32, 400 for 64

upgrade eligibility doesnt matter on the i5

 

 

Wrong.

The 199 299 399 are the subsidized price if you are eligible for an Upgrade. Iirc it should be 299 399 and 499 for an early upgrade.

Not sure on te early upgrade price thou, but it costs more but less than full price.
