I know nsa and GCHQ are licking their lips.

not good. not good AT ALL!

 

[Brittany246]

who finds typing 4 number cumbersome?

seriously.

Not everyone has a 4 number pin. Anyone who really cares about the security of their phone won't use a simple password.

Fingerprint Auth for iTunes Purchases...now kids can purchase anything from Appstore/iTunes when their parents are sleeping.

HAHA, Apple never thought it through properly.

Memo to thieves:

When stealing ones iPhone 5s, remember to grab the correct finger of the owner as well.

 

[Nevaborn]

love purchasing by finger print

however that seems to be all thats cool tbh. Im likely going to wait for the iPhone 6 as I really want a camera upgrade and actual new great features. Control Centre on iPhone 4 will do me for 12 months

The haters and trolls on this forum are just amazing. I'm sorry the new iPhone doesn't shoot lasers or make your coffee for you. Go, switch to Android. Don't tell everyone about it because nobody cares. And don't let the door slam you on the ass on the way out.

You forgot to mention the stupid commercials of lightning and thunder. To show raw power I suppose. Pathetic.

I miss the element of surprise with apples keynotes.

...says the guy commenting on a macRUMORS site.

The irony right? People want to be surprised during a keynote and yet seek out information of future products via these rumor sites.

So what do you guys want? To get info on future products beforehand? Or to get info on future products on the day of the keynote?

Hard to have it both ways...

seriously.

Even so, you can turn off the 4 digit requirement and use shorter strings.

 

[macaddict06]

"It's never stored on Apple servers or backed up to iCloud."

Apple, I love you and all...but...

I mean, literally tens of millions of fingerprints on file is just a bit too tempting for law enforcement.

 

[zioxide]

I thought so too until I started taking pics with my GS4

I would hope so considering the GS4 is a newer phone.

 

[MH01]

64 bit is absolutely huge. I think Android is at least 5 years away from 64 bit.

Really? so explain it to us how it will change our lives? Shame most people calling it huge have no idea what it means!

 

[Macinva]

I really like everything I see here. I'll gladly get an iPhone 5s. For the folks that complain every year and move to another phone, cya. We won't have to see your comments next year.

I just have one word for this release so far: Uninspiring.

64-bit with entirely re-written apps, significantly improved camera, a fingerprint scanner that actually works. Sure. Uninspiring. They should have just come out with a 6" octa-core monster with an 82MP camera. Now that would have been "innovative."

 

[DavidG328]

I left for 20 minutes hoping I'd come back and find news about new Macs, lol I was wrong. But the 5S is sweet!

 

[Ann P]

The square on the home button is gone? :O Looks kind if odd.

 

[WhackyNinja]

Aw no 128GB

 

[Icaras]

No 128GB....sniff...

Ok, no upgrade for me this year!

 

[PDFierro]

No 128GB. Ut oh.

 

[tdream]

Base is still 16GB? no 128GB.

 

[trekkie604]

The theme today is - hideous silicon cases.

 

[dlmart2]

iPhone 5S: 16GB for $199, 32GB for $299, 64GB for $399 with two-year contract.

 

[Donoban]

1 BILLION transistors. If that's not enough to get people excited I don't know what is!

 

[joshs2000ss]

$199. Impressed they've stayed consistant on pricing through all these years.

 

[SONiC5]

32GB Black 5S for me.
