You are too funny, Justin!!!! Delighted you have your phone...ENJOY!!!!!

I will definitely miss your wonderful sense of humor here!;)

Jude

Yep so I finally got it and I love it. Strange how yours was packaged....strangely.

On day 1, I was a little unsettled about the fast battery drain. But that night I did a full charge and today is much better. I'm guessing it'll just take a while for the battery to settle.

In other news, what's with all the food in here? I did a double take to make sure I was in the right thread! You guys are lost without me!

Ps- I love the slow-mo!!
 
Just received my gold iphone 5s!!! I've had the iphone 4 for the last 3.5 years, so it's a big difference for me. It is much faster when just opening up apps and email.

I upgraded from a 4S. Isnt the difference in screen size huge to you? To me, and with my Spigen Tough Armor case the phone feels much flatter and larger. A good thing, dont get me wrong.
 
I waited 3 and a half weeks for my 5S, so I can only say congrats to everyone who has theirs on their way and to the people waiting for theirs, just be a little patient, the more you wait, the better you will feel when the phone arrives :)
 
Just ordered a gold 5S off AT&T.com for $99.

There's no chance in hell that I will have it by thanksgiving right? :D
 
Are you located in the U.S. ?? If so I would think you MIGHT get it right before Thanksgiving. I ordered mine on a Thursday and got it the following Friday, and it sat in China and Korea a day and a half at least EACH. I think it's a matter of timing (when you ordered it versus when the next big batch leaves the factory versus when the next entire plane of phones heads out to each particular distribution hub (U.S., England, Europe, Africa, Eurasia and so on).

I just took mine the Apple store today to get it activated and trade in my 4S, a pristine 4S 32gb, they gave me $189.00 in credit which I applied toward a set of Bose AE2i headphones and a Tech21 clear impact band case. The headphones sound very nice, the whole phone and case are far lighter than my old 4S, plus the doggone this is waaaay faster. Haven't tried out the camera yet but I know I'll like it...

Good luck with your order and delivery !!

Yup, I'm in Boston. It says expected is 11/26 to 12/6. Lets see what happens.
 
Still nothing.. I even tried the ups tracking trick with phone number as reference but its not working..
 
It won't be here on time... :(

Be optimistic:) It will!! Im guessing that we will receive the status change with an updated status already, i believe that our phones are in Europe... mine should be in Milan. From Milan, to get here takes no more than 5 hours: Milan - Valencia 2hours.. transfer etc and train to Alicante.. so it should be here on time, no matter what, most likely tomorrow...

Also, I kind of imagine that they have tons of phones that they have to distribute now, and its a long process, physically and administratively as well... so it might have taken up the whole weekend (dunno if they work on sunday for example) + maybe this morning.. we'll see!
