So your saying basically, your an impulse buyer excited by the hype, and now you have buyers remorse.
Did I get that right ?
You joined last month, no one cares
I returned mine but only because I want silver.
No restocking fee. You have 30 days to return the phone but only 14 days if you want the full carrier subsidy back.

Yes you should return it. I got multiple lines on my account so every year I have 2 or 3 upgrades. I think yearly upgrades are worth the 250 but not the full on 700.
The fingerprint sensor is great and I love it but def not worth 700 over a regular 5.
Good luck. I walked into the Apple Store today right when they were receiving a new shipment. It was all space gray.
I just bite the bullet and placed an order on Apple.com.
If I may,I added a dummy line last year for the 5.It costs $10+tax per month and no phone is needed on that line.I am with AT&T and they were the one that suggested it so I could get the 5.Now I can upgrade ever year.
I ordered the 5s at midnight on Friday, realised I was not excited at all and decided to cancel my pre-order. Not enough of an upgrade from the 5 for me really. I'm don't take too many photos so I would basically just be upgrading for the fingerprint sensor, which I think is a great idea but not enough on its own.
You made the right choice. It is nor enough on its own. My5S I put it on Craigslist for $800 and I have people witting to me left and right. I'm shocked I must say lol because I thought the price was too high.

I've had white phones since 2007 and am loving my first black/space gray with the leather red apple case.
AT&T is the king of crediting stuff. Call them. They will give it back.
But even if they don't, paying $35 is hardly worth not returning a phone that you don't like...

Those cases are VERY nice, aren't they? I went with green
Why months? Apple made x code backwards compatible so itll take only a few hours to change it to a 64 bit app
I'm curious why you went with NEXT. Doesn't it cost you an extra $420/year? ($35/month)
Isn't it cheaper just to pay the $250 "partial upgrade" fee every year instead?
Thanks for the information.
What does it mean only 14 days if you want the full carrier subsidy back?
Apple will give you 30 days to return the phone, no restocking fee.
But If you used a carrier subsidy to buy the iPhone (e.g. commitment to a 2 year contract) then the carrier will charge you a fee or something if you don't return it within 14 days.
I am curious about a few things, there seem to be a lot of people on here who upgrade every year with AT&T, meaning you pay $450 for the base model every year, which is fine, but you can also sell your existing 5 for more or less the same amount, that being said, its basically a free upgrade or 50-70 bucks a year to get a new phone, always be in warranty without apple care, have the newest technology and best resale value. Why does this not make sense for anyone? Why would people do next or do full upgrade one year and retail price the next? I cant see the numbers
I wonder how they work out this fee? It seems they should be thankful they are getting their subsidy money back.
