My Iphone 5 is Flawless THREAD

Glad to see this thread

I for one, am glad someone started this thread. There are already so many posts about the flaking and dead pixels and such. People need to know that not every phone left the factory blemished.

I pre-ordered through Apple within 15 minutes of the start. The phone I received was produced in week 37. I got a black 16gb for Sprint (stuck paying full price since I had no upgrades on my plan yet). Since I had to pay full price I inspected mine pretty closely. I have not found a single flaw anywhere.

My only complaint would be the lousy battery life on the first day. Turns out this was pretty simple to fix. After restoring my backup I found that everything was turned on. LTE as well as notifications for every app I had were turned on. In my case I have no LTE coverage so I turned that off as well as all the notifications that I never use. My son and I had to work damn hard for the last 13 hours to kill my new phone. Him playing games and me watching Youtube videos. I can most definitely live with that. My 4S would have been dead in less than 7 hours with that kind of abuse.
 
Me and 2 other friends got a mix of white iPhone 5s 16GB and 32GB - ABSOLUTELY flawless on each of them. Beautiful screen, awesome WIFI connection and extremely fast LTE speed.:cool::D:

I love my iPhone 5 :apple::apple:. This is THE best iPhone I ever had (and I have been using iPhone since the 3GS).
 
Mine is physically flawless. The only problem was that software screen glitch when entering your password to download an app. Only happened once. Other than that, I haven't come across any problems with my phone yet. :) Black 32GB AT&T.
 
My iPhone 5 was perfect right out of the box and still is. I love getting speeds like this on my 5 with AT&T.

That is my biggest flaw. No LTE support in my city :mad:

I still haven't seen an expected date yet when it's supposed to be rolled out, but hopefully sometime next year would be nice.

Hopefully you'll get it in your area soon. AT&T LTE just went live here in Philly last weekend.
 
Mine is perfect but since the original in 2007 I have never had a bad iPhone. Never needed AppleCare my 3G still works not a broken button in sight n I still use it most the time... AT&T wanted to buy it back from me but I refused to sell it lol
 
My Darth Vader 16 gig is looking and working great. Like some here though LTE is missing around my way but as soon as it goes live, I'll be all set.

Damn I'm jealous! We have LTE here in Tampa Bay but at my house I get barely 1/4 of your throughput. :( I'm anxious to see how LTE is at my office, since I have no wi-fi there (well I do, but it's corporate, and Big Brother is watching_) which is where I'll value it most.
 
Phoned Apple, they are sending me out a Black 64GB so I can choose between my white and black. Whichever one I don't want I send back via Courier.

I love Apple's after sales service, that was a BREEZE, and no waiting in line on the phone either!

We still have our 3g as well.
 
im 99.9% sure mine is flawless, lol.

no scratches, dent, etc

no battery movement inside

wifi works faster on it, as well as everything else

yet that slight rattle (like a screw is loose) is concering me, and altho it could be the auto focus or vibration motor, im still gonna ask at my local apple store ...
 
Perfect 64GB black, wife's 64GB white also perfect, AT&T Premier preorders, couldn't be happier. Well, except for maps saying I work in the middle of the Hudson River. And that I can't charge at work until my extra cables arrive today. Sigh.

Still very happy. :apple:
 
Who can tell me the Iphone 5 Box Dimensions?thanks.
