Black 16 GB coming from an iPhone 4. The speed difference is incredible, iOS6 is underwhelming. I'm most happy about LTE and the screen. I suppose the camera is also a nice upgrade from the 4. Btw, no scratches on my black iPhone 5

.Alright guys don't laugh. So maybe im a little paranoid, but I've been keeping my ip5 in a plastic bag because i haven't gotten the screen protector for it yet and the screen cover fell off. Surprisingly, it works perfectly well through the plastic.
Pretty good. Zero complains. Well the only complain is people kept asking me "Is that the new one???"
Other than that I'm in love with my new iPhone.

I used Saran Wrap when I had an iPod touch a few years ago to protect the chrome back lol.
it was good
said it before in another thread- FAST
LTE is insanely fast. beyond fast
Bigger screen is nice for reading emails
Thinner and lighter is good. Not too light though, i like some mass.
General software use is very fast
Wifi web page loading is faster (is that possible?)
Siri is cool - dont know how long i will use it but I used it for things like weather, yankees scores, NFL game times, and an alarm
IOS 6 is nothing special, not that it is bad, just seems the same as IOS5 to the untrained eye
Going from ***** ass ATT to VZW is great. Let me repeat, this is the single most important thing. I still have not dropped or missed a call. It is so strange not having to treat my phone like rabbit ears on an old TV set and pray that my call does not drop out.
good job apple
iphone 6 will be nuts

Absolutely loving it. Bought it with the intention of testing it out, and selling it for a Galaxy S3 if i didn't like it. I'm loving everything about it though.
Upgraded from a 4. The speed is amazing! WiFi, LTE and the new processor is tits!
an iPhone 5 for a GS 3? one does not simply commit such an stupidity
Great weekend indeed. Got a lot of compliments on it. I was constantly finding myself cleaning the aluminum back and edges with my shirt though
I can only say that I love it! Compared to my iP4 it's like a totally amazing upgrade. From speed to LTE and everything in between. Siri and I are now dating, don't tell my wife. I've had zero problems/issues.
