Find out if it will blend...

Just kidding, I'm going to test the new waterproof design...

Just kidding, I'm going to caress and stare at it.:eek:
 
Unfortunately, my first few hours will be restoring as usual (getting 2 phones). Hopefully lightning cables will make it faster but I read it doesnt support USB3.

There's no point. The memory in the phone isn't fast enough to take advantage. They could make it Thunderbolt and it's not going to be any faster.

For me it's maps and panorama. I'll also play with the new sports feature with Siri.(so far we haven't gotten along, hopefully it'll be better this time)
 
It won't be the first thing since ill be home alone, but I really want to try out the active noise cancelation.
 
Open Safari and do a search on when LTE is scheduled to arrive in my area. Put the phone back in the box and wait until that day.


Oh - you wanted a serious answer? Siri / Camera Improvements (Coming from a 4)
 
gonna transfer some of my pr0n videos from the galaxy nexus to the iphone 6.
wanna see those details in retina. :rolleyes:
 
This is my first iphone so:

Try to put on a screen protector without screwing it up.
Put on a case.
Manually add all my contacts that I lost from my last Touch Pro 2 freeze that couldn't be restored. :( They are literally typed on a piece of paper I keep in my wallet.
Download the list I made of about 30 apps.
Figure out the whole making folders thing.
Set up my emails.
Talk to Siri.
Do a speed test.
Play with the camera.
Facetime someone.
 
Gf will still be at work, so I'll probably tell Siri all the texts I want her to send to my gf. (Coming from an iPhone 4, still an exciting feature for me.)

Drag one app onto another, the folder will be magically created for you!


.....frankly, I'm going to open the box first!
 
JK I want to try out the maps and yelp integration. im a yelp elite and i write a lot of reviews and check in a lot so im really excited about that. also, as a new verizon customers, i want to try out the LTE.:D

Ditto, big Yelp user myself. Been debating making a focus to go Elite but always get too lazy. But really looking forward to the integration. Stopped checking in long ago...tired of all the cheating.

Also, LTE. Can't wait to check the speed improvements in general.

Really excited about the new chassis too.
 
Is there going to be any new things you can put in notification center with ios 6, i know you can now tweet/make a status right from the drop down panel, anything else?
 
Just a forwarning to everyone so excited about Siri, remember not to judge her on the first day. Apple's servers are going to be so bogged down with everyone trying her out. At least, thats how it was with the 4S

Anyway,
I'll be going to the Verizon store first, buying an Otterbox (at 20% discount) and getting them to switch some phones around. I'd do it myself but I dont trust the automatic call switcher when it deals with my Unlimited Data.

Then get home and play around with LTE, and just admire the bigger screen. I've had iOS 6 for a few months now. Hopefully watch the phone speed even faster with that custom A6 :cool:
