Circumstances mean I can't get the 6 now so got the next best thing in a brand new sealed 16gb Space Grey iPhone 5s.
How do you like it thus far? I am strongly considering the 5S probably in white and 32g.
I'm coming back from a Nexus 5 so a downgrade in screen size has been the major thing for me.
It's a cracking bit of kit though - very happy to have made the jump back and looking forward to iOS 8.
Finally getting an iPhone 5s
Always wanted - cost was just absurd. Thanks slickdeals T-Mobile iPhone 5s should be here next week. I'm like a little kid waiting for Christmas

If anything, eBay prices will be more expensive.
When people have control of the price, as opposed to Apple, they seem to attempt to sell it at a much higher price.
Not applicable to every situation.
I gave my first 5S to my Daughter who needed to upgrade from the iPhone 4. I was going to use her iPhone 4 temp. until the 6 came out but couldn't stand it after the first day with it, so I went to Apple 2 weeks ago and purchased the Unlocked Silver, 64GB iPhone 5S at full retail.
I'm fighting every urge to do this. I dropped my Galaxy Note 2 and broke it and have been using my old iPhone 4 that I had previously given to the kids as a wifi only device. It is painfully slow and I really want a 5s to hold me over until the 5.5" iPhone 6 comes out which is looking like next year.
You will know in about 4 days from now about the iPhone 6 5.5" model; on the 9th is the announcement of Apple's Fall/Winter new products! Noon ET or 10:00A.M. PT! This is the real deal! No more rumors to speculate about!
Hey everyone I am now the owner of my first personal apple device. I bought an iPhone 5s 32gb slate gray on Monday and I'm loving it. I think what really opened my eyes was the way that my parents love the iPads I bought them. My previous phone was a Samsung Galaxy S2 i9100 that was aging and giving android.process errors. I think with the 5s finally has a phone that can truly compete with in the high end smartphone market. Apple nailed it with the feature set and size. The feeling I get with this phone is similar to how I felt when I just got my Nokia n95 8gb years ago. It's all smiles for me.
Exchange it for the iP6 or return it, pay the restock fee and wait. Cost of a 32GB iP5s gets you a 64GB iP6. Worth it.
I made the move from a Note 2 to a iP4 (for a month) then picked up a used iP5. I got used to it pretty quick too. Considering getting a 6 or 6+ though.
Ordered a certified gold iPhone 5s for the wife. Will receive it tomorrow. Certified phones are the best, there cheaper and there is no contract, plus it comes from the carrier. $369 total in price, w/tax.
I just got that too...from TMobile and @ 16GB's price!
The perfect pocket/gym/running phone !!
Yup, T-Mobile here, too. They screwed up the delivery, which was free as well, so I also convinced them to give me another $50 in credit. Good deal for us.
It's a whole lot different from her old 4. She thinks the 5s feels flimsy. In glad we didn't get the 6...
