Well iphone 5 is finally here-was it worth waiting for? In one word NO ! A year in the making and still 1 year behind Samsung S3. Samsung are already working on S4, Apple give up now, if that's your best effort then your reign is over, the whole world waited and it need not have bothered, Apple is getting left behind slowly and as time by goes on the gap will get bigger unless they get a design team with more imagination, more style and flair and dream up better spec phones to keep up with the competition. 3 phones on the trot now and they all look the same, gee the head designer must have an easy 24 months in his office, good job Samsung paid out 1 billion dollars, should compensate for all the 4 & 4S customers who have just realised they don't need to bother upgrading their phone!

          I have a gut feeling that the A6 processor is only dual core which is why Apple did not make any remarks to the total cores, processor speed etc during the announcement. This was probably due to the fact that it might have affected the share prices of the company until launch date of iPhone 5. We'll soon find out but I'm willing to bet anything that it's only dual core.

                To Apple fanboys: if this wasn't an Apple product, would you buy it over the Lumia 920 & Galaxy S III?!

                  what is the speed & how many cores?
                  it should be 1.5 speed and quad core, not less, otherwise it useless to change from my 4S

                    I was thinking of writing to Office Of Fair Trading to see whether this 100GBP increments per doubling of memory is FAIR???

                    I mean come on it costs very little to Apple these memory chips they buy in bulk yet they charge 100GBP..

                      AnonD-56991, 13 Sep 2012A lot of countries are starting to use NFC and you can buy ... moreAbsolutly if Apple can make a buck they will..

                      They should be made to ship this new adapter with the fone so folk can start using their accessories straight away ,,but,, no they are going to charge for it..I always say i like iphone but dont like the company.They have billions in bank and they wont ship a poxy adapter that costs few pence.

                          And the same with wireless charging, it's just something that makes your £700 phone more enjoyable to use.
                          But Apple doesn't seem to care about what the customers want and just go for what's profitable.

                            I owned 4s and me thinking to upgrade to this phone? No way! I got the uocked version of the 4s here in the Philippines. I please a business man and I go for innovation but with the Iphone 5?! This is a piece of junk! What the he'll happened to the innovation that Apple used to have?! I guess the R&D departments budget was all transferred to paying their lawyers to sue Samsung an dother android OEMs. I would definitely change to android and sell my 4s for 1/4 of its price even if they say android is cheap plastic. Honestly for business men like me you don't care what the phone looks like as long as it can perform well.

                              This wirless charging only consumes more power because it has to be plugged in all the time..If it is not plugged in all the time then when you come in and plonk phone on wirless charger it wont charge..So you have to plug it in and switch it on to work so why not not just plug in a regular charger and unplug when finished..

                              Thats why Apple did not bother with it cause you have to plug the wireless charger in anyway..

                              About NFC where are you going to use it??? Here in Uk there are 3 places accept it and its dodgy meaning folk end up having to enter their PIN manually anyway..

                              Apple will not tolerate substandard practise so did not employ these technologys..

                              Quadcore is another pathetic boring argument over and over again..Only stupid Android need craptonnes of power to operate the laggy O/S whereas polished IOS runs nicley on less power..

                              So bored of either kids or noobs on these forums most of you are thick as pigshit..Once the forum has calmed down and the phone actually released can us normal folk discuss the Apple iphone 5..By the amount of interest the phone has created it shows it has caused a huge disturbanceon how popular it is,,after all if folk were not bothered as they keep saying how come they have been on Apples forums for past 36hrs so concerned about it..

                                  The white is gorgeous ! I will get one instead of my BlackBerry Bold 9900 which has horrible screen and terrible battery life.

                                    A great phone, big screen with the addition of multiple band support for 4G, suprised there's no java this time round.

                                    it lacks certain features
