How can complain when you do not know what the updates are to this model? Yes, it looks the same - this is to be expected since it is an S update. Given the history of iPhone updates, it will have features the model before did not. I am just saying to the moaners to stop moaning until it is known what they are, then decide if you wish to update.
As for your nicks - you are to blame, not Apple. Look after your device and it will not nick.
It was just published but filed a long time ago. That means it was invented a long time ago.
Well if I remember correctly it might not be on the front, but on the bezel.

Geez Louise. All these people who reach back to Apple's old ad campaigns and either were too young to remember, have selective memory, or outright amnesia.
Back in the "Think Different" era (and before in some cases) the new iMac model was... a different color, or colors, or dots or flowers. The 7xxx and 8xxx series Power Macs models existed for at least a year, often two, without any update at all, even a speed bump. And how many ship dates did Apple miss. Oh boy. The new polycarb G4/G4 PM cases went from blue to gray to mirrored to aluminum, and up until the recent update, the PM/MP case has been virtually unchanged for 10 years. And the PB/MBP is also pretty much the same shell, moderinzed, much like a Porsche 911.
So please don't delve back to the "good old days" of Apple to make a point that doesn't bolster your argument. You need to know history, not just slogans.
Nope. I want new designs when they are created, not hampered by an artificial product release cycle.Don't think you appreciate the effort that goes in to designing something. I guess you want new iMacs and MacBook re designs every year too?
I didn't say 12 months, I said it's possible to break the mold of 2 year product cycles. But apparently that's too much for fanboys to handle, we all saw how butthurt they were when iPad 4 was released.It also wasn't "Think Different in 12 month predictable increments."!
Your reply has far too much logic for me to fathom. What do you think this is, a serious conversation?Geez Louise. All these people who reach back to Apple's old ad campaigns and either were too young to remember, have selective memory, or outright amnesia.

No thank you. I will be waiting for the Nexus 5 and Moto X.

You keep on thinking that.Or conversely, "my iPhone 5 is scratched" <-- so this is a problem for everyone. Nice logic there![]()
That's essentially what users are pushed into doing when their phones get old and there's only one product with the iOS ecosystem. You gonna re-buy all my apps for me Mr. Moneybags?Or conversely, I'm gonna keep buying this phone even though I hate it![]()
Not my job. I know you don't like hearing that, but it's true.Name some innovations you're looking for?
No one is forced to buy the new iPhone, but that's the way the world works.Did I miss something where it was written that you have to buy the new iPhone? If you don't like it don't buy it, or switch to another phone. Not sure why this is such a hard concept to grasp for some.
Nice, but i will pass because i love my iPhone 5, 5s wont have any big improvemets comparing with 5, also fifth iPhone will get all iOS7 features, works superb fast... so not worth for iPhone 5 owners upgrading to 5s
Then why did you post it? Now you're just being mean.You've missed the entire point, I wasn't expecting you to understand my comment...![]()
I wasn't expecting to see a dual LED flash.
Then why did you post it? Now you're just being mean.![]()
Oh boy. Wallstreet is gonna love this innovation. Not
He's so wishing he could take that back now![]()
Im still using an iPhone 4S because quite frankly I was unenthused by the iPhone 5 when it was first released. It seemed to be a fairly dilute product, and I saw no particular need to upgrade.
Now, if they consolidate the design and review the specs a little, Ill be quite willing to jump ship, mainly because my trusty 4S is really starting to show its age and because theres a plentiful number of apps out there that take advantage of the 5s enlarged screen format.
Still, it seems to me that from the 5 onwards Apple has lost its way a little, erring on the side of conservative caution. Which is quite understandable, but a little sad, too.
Im still hoping that the front bezel of this thing might reveal something interesting, unexpected and useful such as a fingerprint sensor and NFC communications to argument credit cards at POS, but I think the chances are slim.
I was watching the Samsung event yesterday and it makes me wonder why Apple never considered waterproofing or at least splash-proofing their phones. Apple is a huge company, there should be no excuse for slow rate of improvements and the apparent lack of innovation.
