Live Coverage of Apple's iPhone 5 Media Event [Event Over]

[FuNGi]

It's funny how he keeps mistakingly calling it an iphone 4. I can see how one might do that....

 

[Rogifan]

Edge = 2G

And I can't access cellular. On my 4S. WTF.

 

[bushido]

i'd be kinda happy for apple to fall on their lazy ass with that thing so they start to innovate again but i know that won't happen. people will buy it like crazy again, i used to be one of those but its kinda "meh" after having owned every iPhone since 2007 minus the 3GS

on the other hand, maybe the whole "smartphone" deal is just milked and kinda stale by now ^^

 

[Krandor]

I guess we will never have a revolutonary keynote like when the first iPhone and the second iPhone were presented. But it's an upgrade. Consumers should be happy they dont have to update every year to have a good iphone.

At this point there are only so many new things that can be added.

 

[phinsup]

Not bad mouthing the phone really, but this is the first time that I will wait until I can actually see the phone to order it. Nothing in the features really makes me say that I need this one over my 4s!

 

[linkgx1]

Very much a yawn so far. Has nothing on the Galaxy S3...yet.

 

[ristlin]

I'm happy with my 4S, I'll wait for a major redesign (if it ever comes...).

 

[nooaah]

AAPL is now positive again. Whew.

 

[stockinvestor]

I WILL BUY THE NEW IPHONE !!!!!!! JUST WHAT I WANT! THANKS APPLE!

 

[Pegamush]

it's sad to me that all this effort is put to bring videogames on a smartphone.

 

[cwwilson]

This is getting embarrassing now....

 

[Madhawk]

So much for secrecy...

 

[F123D]

I love the iPhone 4 design so a slight tweak to this version isn't a problem for me. Just wish the screen was wider but I'll get over it..

 

[janderson0719]

Anybody else not surprised....

I feel 'meh'

 

[mackinmike]

nice... we have an iphone 4s-xl. wake me up again when they release the iphone5.

 

[IsaacM]

It's because smartphones are the new gaming consoles.

 

[Eadfrith]

AAPL is now positive again. Whew.

A6 chip to the rescue lol

 

[whitesand]

AAPL is taking a beating right now. Guess investors weren't impressed.

The stock moving down on the news has nothing to do with investors being impressed or not....The stock has moved substantially in anticipation of the release....The iphone news release has already been priced in prior to the announcement...Very common for stocks to trade months in advance to major news..

This isn't uncommon. The phrase buy the rumor, sell the news exists for a reason.

 

[Blacknight10s]

disappointed

I love apple, but put a photo of this new phone next to the galaxy and I'm becoming afraid for apple.. this could be a big misstep.

 

[lucasfunkt]

Awful. Just awful.

It's a lot better than the last one, what the problem?

 

[slopokdave]

PATENTED: Console quality graphics. Let the fun ENSUE.

 

[ristlin]

AAPL is now positive again. Whew.

Oh ****, its dipping again, bring out another feature quick!

 

[pk7]

That is actually pretty damn good battery life. 8 hours on LTE!

 

[Exio]

It's just a phone...

That's unfortunately not what 90% of the people here think.
