Per App VPN sounds great!

I thought Apple would make me switch to iOS...guess I was wrong.

I'll call Tim and tell them to go ahead and scrap it then, since you're not interested.

FaceTime audio!

 

[MisterKeeks]

Drama queen until you're stranded in the middle of the desert in Australia, haha.

And how would you drive to Australia from Canada?

 

[iRebecca27]

will iOS 7 work on the iPhone 4?

 

[damitssam]

Phone blocking. Not bad feature there apple.

 

[Toltepeceno]

Of course you're nervous...all the bashing posts scream insecurity. if you're not nervous, then what exactly is the point of bashing it? it seems you're not going to use it, so why bash it?

Lots of insecurity on both sides, worrying about someone posting something they don't like also screams insecurity. Why let it bother you? If I like something i could care less if anyone else does.

Did they ever say that iMessage is getting quick reply?

 

[kramjam]

So bummed about no new keyboard. Hoping it works better than iOS6

 

[iMikeT]

Phone, FaceTime, and Message blocking will be one of the very first things I use in iOS 7!

 

[HeyGreggie]

Lets pray this isn't another $9.99 subscription and we HAVE to use ios 7

Ad free with itunes match.
But gotta use iOS7.

Meh...

Phone and Message blocking. Sweet. Now Comcast can go f themselves with their harassing sales calls.

 

[bag of kittens]

Display a black screen on your phone for an hour then display a white one for an hour and compare the battery usage. Light takes power to create, dark doesn't. If messages and other frequently used apps are switching to brighter (white) backgrounds you will use battery faster.

The pixels are still on when the display is black. It doesn't go off. IF it makes any difference I'd imagine it will be in the order of seconds or minutes per day of usage.

I like thieves not being able to re activate.

 

[adztaylor]

Activation lock is good.

Fandroids when Android copies iOS: "Pfft, Apple didn't do this first. I saw this on Futurama like 6 years ago. Besides, it's just the natural evolution of touchscreen computing."

Fandroids when iOS copies Android: "Lulz, Apple is so lame, ANDROID FTW!!!"

The good news for MacRumors is they get a rush of new forum users telling us how awesome their Samsung Galaxy S 4 Deluxe Turbo Plus devices are.

 

[kudoboi]

this is beautiful. better UI, better multitasking, better lockscreen, better controls, better updates than android. google can cry at the corner now! im in love with it. can't wait to try it out on my ipad and iphone.

 

[ZacNicholson]

[iMikeT]
