I love how some people cannot grasp how much R&D it takes just to alter the iPhone one iota from its predecessor. It takes quite a bit of effort. There is so much behind the scenes we as consumers forget or overlook. I believe this phone alone has over 100 new features while being longer, lighter and thinner. I mean, c'mon. That's like someone not being impressed by a meal a chef slaved over all morning to prepare for his/her guests. Somewhere in the middle we all forget what it took to create a final product.

They have $100 billion in cash, you would think they can come up with something better than this. Or at least sell it at a lower cost. Its insane to see the iPhone 5 cost $100 more on contract than the Galaxy S3 even though the specs are almost identical.

Apple has 3 generations of iPhones selling for less. Go buy those. I'm pissed the '12 911 starts at $94k, too, and they're one of the most profitable car companies on the planet. Should I bitch?

What were people hoping for, exactly? This seems like a sensible upgrade. The only thing that pisses me off about iphones is the lack of an SD slot just so they can charge an extra $100 for a little more storage.

I think this is gonna be a big thing to have in the future. If you look at ALL the mobile devices available out there today, Apple is best positioned to do this, they have the least amount of openings/access points for water. The glass can be easily sealed, just have to worry about the plugs and speakers.

Other new features include additional and enhanced microphones so you can use Siri better. The speakers are upgraded, as are the redesigned ear phones. Also, the iOS 6 Map looks pretty epic. It has full 3d bird view, and offline turn-by-turn navigation!!! GPS companies like Garmini and Navtec are effed.

wouldve liked some interesting new hardware changes..
- xenon flash on the back and perhaps an led one on the front (..a bit crazy maybe) - Dab radio - not sure it can be done but would be cool - Hd Voice for call quality - Finger print recognition home button that said the improvements are cool (especially like voice controlled navigation) ...will def be getting one. |

Did anyone notice that the 5 is not global like the 4s? The 4s has both CDMA and GSM bands. The 5 you can only have one or the other.

The IPhone 5 could have a built in microwave, vacuum cleaner, have a 10TB hard drive, pop-out wheels to double as a roller skate and the ability to microwave your dinner and project 2Pac holograms 500 feet away and people would still be bitching and saying "I can't believe that's all it does, the Androids are so much better" Well ...... it's a free world .... buy a d@mn Android!!!!!
