The iPhone 5 and iOS6 Thread

[nabs]

lol LTE = Faster Speeds = Smaller Frequencies = Smaller and Less Electronically Stable Components (characteristically) = More Heat = Battery Loss...

I actually dont mind the battery thing, it only went down 40 percent all day today, My HTC would have died 6 times over by the end of the day by how much I was using the iPhone today, and what I was using it for.

Man the battery life feels worse than my ip4 I wonder if it's just because of LTE

do you guys have the yellow tinted issue so far? compared to my iphone 4, the new iphone 5 is yellow tinted...

Are most scratches coming from black ip5 only cos my white came outta the box mint like its suppose. Also why so many ppl get black this time around. Aside from the back I find ip4 black looks way better with the silver edge

Thanks #Apple Maps, I'll send u the fine when I drive thru a reserve/footpath to get to my local shops #iOS6fail

[HansonBoy]

^ did Apple cooperate with Rockstar in making those maps? GTA style driving right there

[rice cooker]

Hey at least it's the 3rd suggestion haha. I'm pretty sure the 4th is a straight line to the destination lol

That's an outright lie being spread by people to make it seem like Apple is blocking Google. Eric Schmidt's actual statements were: "We haven't done anything with Google Maps yet" and "Apple would have to approve it - it's their choice."

People are taking the last half of his statement and trying to imply that the ball's in Apple's court when they haven't even submitted google Maps yet.

It's useful now. I don't use navigation but my wife does, and she hasn't had any issues (yet). However, there are a lot of people who are having trouble and there are a ton of issues to get fixed. Nobody can answer how good it will be in 6 months.

Nabs - thanks again homie

I haven't even opened up my google maps app yet. I think im afraid to use it, lol. So far I've had no trouble whatsoever, i love the new way of searching in iPod, the only thing i dont like that is different from my android is that when im in Messages, I have to scroll all the way to the top to click the CALL button. or I have to go home then go to the phone, whereas in the android, i just had to click on the person's avatar.

that statement is basically like Steve Jobs "you're holding it wrong" statement.


How are people getting scratches and scuffs around the band?? I dont baby my phone and its still mint. i don't get it.

[freakshow]

Here's my own experience with iOS6 maps..



What boggles my mind is how the pin was in the right spot, but the route was wrong..

[LiquidTurbo]

Anyone who tries to deny that Apple released a Beta version of maps is just lying to one self. It's kind of dissapointing.

[LiquidTurbo]

One of the things I used to use maps fora lot was looking up a business and then using street view to see what it looked like so recognizing it is very easy when driving there.

A slightly more in-depth examination of the A6 chip, now where can I get my own personal ion blaster?

What's so interesting? Apple doesn't really make/invent anything of its own.
