Ran into two bugs with my 5s so far. The more significant, while I was playing with it, I eventually noticed the phone was down to 95%, despite being plugged in to my PC the whole time.
iTunes shows it, but doesn't show it as charging, though my iPod nano shows as charging.
I googled the issue, and it sounds like people were having trouble with this last year with the 5? Bad cables?
I know I had a ton of trouble with the lightning cable and ended up switching to amazons, which (knock on wood) so far seem to work, despite being cheaper. This isn't charging with the Apple cable it came with... The phone has done next to nothing save sit by my computer, ditto for the cable, soooo...
Less significantly, I've had the settings program crash on me a few times, and also seems to get unresponsive when I'm putting mail accounts in. My gmail account worked, but then with the others it will just sit there forever after I enter info and hit "save" or whatever up in the corner.
I eventually will relaunch settings, and it'll show my accounts in there as saved, but they don't show up in the mail program (save for the first one) and I can't change the settings for my first account now either without it appearing to hang forever.
Ugh, it even hangs trying to DELETE an account.
My iPad 2 doesn't seem to have mail issues like that, although the accounts were already set up when I installed iOS 7...still, I can change settings there with nothing weird happening.
I've got the "off 3 degrees" thing with my compass/level too. If they're all off 3 degrees, hopefully that's software fixable, buuuut what's going on here with all these bugs? (iTunes 11.1 of course too with podcasts.)
I'm actually kinda freaked. Paid almost $1000 for this thing and then I can't set up mail accounts?
