I'd wager that the average iPhone is used less for talking than other actions. And I see lots of posts from people who want 100 minute plans with unlimited fast data. Now, I talk about 1,000 minutes a month but I still use more apps and web browsing and messaging than phone calling. So yes, it can be called an I watch.
Got a tip for us?

Mad? The last time I checked comical was closely associated with laughter and joking...
I am far from mad, I was making a statement by saying it is funny due to the fact that is an APPLE FORUM. Do you go to a car forum and talk about your feelings in regards to McDonald's breakfast?
----------
A tissue for what? I don't even understand the joke you are trying to make.

Ok...and your point is?
Are you one of those people that wishes Apple would be more like Android?
Keep dreaming, or wait for iPhone 6S
btw I doubt we will see something like iWatch, (no leaks yet - no exist) no surprises:
iPhone 5C/5S, Mac Pro/Mac Book Pro releases, iPad 5.
I have doubt about the iPad mini, some leaks doubt it will be available, but market need an retina mini iPad for xMas sales, big fail if apple can't, or only presents an revised iPad mini with iPhone 5S features (fingerprint scanner, cpu).
Another products with possible surpises are the iMac and mac mini, among haswell update, we could see an new form factor for the Mac mini, something like the Mac Pro or the new timecapsule, also we could see a 27"uDH tb Display and a uHD iMac.
... and it took the might of apple, over the course of 12 months, to come up with this?
Laughable!!!
Laughable!!!
Apparently these new phones don't have screens because all you see is the back. I don't get it.
I get sick and tired of not only hearing just about champagne, gold, fingerprint sensors etc: I get sick and tired of hearing people whining constantly about what the new iPhone may or may not have. Get a grip. It's a phone: how much do you need it to do? Why do you need a phone that does so much? If they crammed it to the rafters with gadgets, you'd only get the next wave of winge bags banging on about its battery life. Also, "The S4 does that, the Note does this". Brilliant. Go get one. If everybody liked the same thing, life would be boring. Here's an idea: if you have a spare minute that you can't fill by doing something unnecessary on a phone, how about putting it in your pocket and trying some social interaction?
Yes, Apple has stepped off the gas a bit, and no, it's not the same as when Jobs' was around: but stop focusing on the negative all the time-go back 6 years and look at mobile phones then, and think yourself lucky that you have the phones you have now. I'd rather Apple take 2 years to really nail their next 'must have' than bang it out in a year and its a pile of cr@p, thus damaging their reputation.
And (kind of) on topic: who cares about the colours? Who's making you buy a gold iPhone? If you don't like it, don't buy it.

I'm an apple user but that's just life. I like it when people talk about non apple products. May be info I wasn't aware of. It's not like religion and someone trying to convert. I like the best tool for the job. Apple or not.
I left Apple TV and don't see myself ever going back to it. Same as I left PC for Mac.
How much is technically possible. Why put a limit to the marvels of technology? If you don't want advanced features you don't want a smartphone and should buy a dumbphone instead. This doesn't mean we millions of smartphone users should "get a grip".
I just got the s4 and the screen is awesome but I dont like how rough the apps look and too many menus. Ive not decided if im gonna keep it yet.
I will be getting note 3.. It's sad but it is true. I am moving away from iphone for the first time. I hope they really wake up and give people what they want.. I really hope so(which is multiple sizes from apple, something like 3.5/4/5/5.5)
WakE UP apple!!!
ps: I have iphone 4s currently.

So you find it weird that a story about the potential specs of a new Apple phone would consist of comparison to the specs of other manufacturer's phones?
What's the grossest word in the english language? "Vomit."
That's how I feel about the iPhone 5S. No more ********g iPhones! No more *****g iPads! Apple? Make god-damn ********g computers again!

You don't have to be so offended my friend, because after the lunch of Apple new iPhone 5S...you can find all of us on ANDROID Forum...
We are all angry do to the same unchanged APPLE design:
IT'S TIME FOR A REVOLUTION...WHO'S WITH ME !!
Out in the real world away from the various Internet forums, I'm not hearing the usual conversation about the upcoming iPhone like I did in past years. There are several very large conferences I attend this time of year therefore I'm around lots of people, when the topic turns to smartphones it's a brief conversation and I'm in the minority with the iPhone 5 I use. Previously their was more of a balance between Android & iPhone. Times are changing for sure.

Why not do it now? and stop whining
We already know that Apple will never be Android.
Save yourself from grief.
This goes to all whiners here. iPhone 6, iPhone 6S will be the same story. So grab your Android now! You'll feel better.
I'm moving away from the iPhone for the first time too. Been a loyal user since the first iPhone and upgraded to the newest iPhone every year. Just can do it this year with what I have heard so far. I'll give them a chance on the 10th because I am loyal but looks like a very minimal upgrade this year.
You guys are so funny. You are moving away because the 5S (like the 4S and 3GS) isn't going to be a huge upgrade over the 5? You do know that Apple major upgrades on iPhones is every 2 years? I guess on the Android side you feel the Galaxy S4 is a major step up over the Galaxy S3?
Please spare us all the dramatics and go to an Android forum ASAP.
That's EXACTLY why Apple isn't innovating anymore. They're always catching up. Up until 2 weeks ago, I've always had iPhones (3GS, 4, and 5). Tired of the lackluster technology (and small/slim form of the 5) I decided (like the throngs of others are doing) to try Android (Sony XPERIA XL). First week...hated it. Second week...started to grow on me more, and now I'm really enjoying the power and the features. I can customize it to look how I want it and can change apps away from the stock ones. And, yes, it is more powerful than my iPhone 5. (so are the S3 and S4, btw).
You're hooked on Apple Juice...that's fine. For me, variety is the spice of life, and I'm not afraid to wander off to greener pastures. If/when Apple comes out with something markedly better, I'll decide whether to come back or not then. By then, Snapdragon 800-based phones will have been out for a while, so Apple better have something really big up their sleeves to one-up them!
Yeah .2" bigger screen + waving hands wildly to turn down volume on your matching Galaxy tv is SO innovative! Who needs a completely updated OS, brand-new tech fingerprint scanner, super-fast internals, customized to the software, & an amazing camera upgrade on iPhone 5S?
