I think this was just a test to see how far they could go with cheaper quality control. Turns out, people keep buying them like crazy.. so expect quality to keep going down, while they put others out of business with litigation  | |

A message from Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO
Steve’s passing one year ago today was a sad and difficult time for all of us. I hope that today everyone will reflect on his extraordinary life and the many ways he made the world a better place.
One of the greatest gifts Steve gave to the world is Apple. No company has ever inspired such creativity or set such high standards for itself. Our values originated from Steve and his spirit will forever be the foundation of Apple. We share the great privilege and responsibility of carrying his legacy into the future.
I’m incredibly proud of the work we are doing, delivering products that our customers love and dreaming up new ones that will delight them down the road. It’s a wonderful tribute to Steve’s memory and everything he stood for.
Tim
- What a troll creativity and quality control LOL

Does the iphone 5 play HD video off youtube while not connected to wifi? Since it's now LTE?
It's One of biggest pet peeves about the 4S!!

very depressing and poor buying experience. Went to the service centre and exchanged for another one. They are not very helpful, gave me another iphone5 without a box, so the IMEI on the phone and old box are different. Then I saw at least 3 scuff marks on the edge, but they refuse to exchange another one.
They are challenging their customers how much we are willing to pay for a low quality built phone. I am disappointed and it will not buy another iphone or apple product anymore.

Posted via RS Mobile | Another alternative to YouTube is the Jasmine player. A sleeker and cooler looking interface which plays much nicer quality compared to using data on the YouTube app.
Hopefully they will release a revamped YouTube app..

LOL ya, I just read it on mobile syrup eh. Unfortunately, it's the consumer who allows apple to do it...... I don't think apple products ever declined because of defects eh. They don't see a need to really fix something if it doesn't affect their sales.

im kinda worried with all these bad quality control experiences. im planning on giving my hardware renewal to my gf for the iphone 5. but now there is the camera issue, rattling issue, and most of all scratch issue. weather you put a case on it or not its gonna scratch because the hard cases will scratch the phone.
i'm thinking i should hold out on getting the phone for now, maybe they will improve the build quality or the type of anodized paint.
btw, from an automotive point of view. anodized paint are more durable the regular paint.
also, can anyone recommend a nice girly case or bumper that is soft on the inside so it doesn't scratch?

Gorilla Glass shatters very well. It's supposed to be scratchproof (ie. hard)
