Pre-order for the iPhone 5 went flawless, I'll never wait in line for an iPhone again. Wastes too much time.
I've never bought an Apple product on launch day but for my first iPhone this fall (5S) I intend on doing so. Does anyone have any experience on how this works? I know that with the 5 there was a reservation system. Did only people who reserved their iPhone line up at Apple stores? Or can you receive the iPhone through preordering on launch day? Also: do malls with Apple Stores allow people to line up inside early in the morning?
Just order online the second Apple make them available. Alternatively you could camp outside your nearest Apple Store for days just to get one of that store's limited stock. Buy online from the comfort of your house and wait for it to arrive, guaranteed. That's what I'll be doing. Camping outside an Apple Store is more of a ritual for some people, rather than just getting the latest iPhone.
Can someone please explain the logic behind camping out at the store, or getting there at 5am and waiting for 5+ hours to get a phone? I don't understand.
Do you guys have nothing better to do with your time? I honestly don't understand the need to wait in line for so long (some guy on the first page said 10 hours ) for a phone. Why do you HAVE to have it on launch day? You can't wait a few days, or a few weeks?
Lastly.. waiting for an iPhone was the most anxious you've been in your life That's so bizarre to me.
" I just can't wait to hold it in my arms ". Could not believe what I heard
