Apple iPhone 5C/S

[puppysparkes]

I'll get a 5S, like the idea of the fingerprint sensor. Will gift my iPhone 5 to daughter

The best law enforcement database world wide without even trying.

If you injure your finger, how do you overcome the fingerprint feature if your finger is out of action?

I gather you can nominate 3 fingers

 

[JessicaTam]

All the fingers on one hand are the same, with the other hand being symmetrical.

Has always been a flaw with fingerprint devices ... But an interesting twist!

All the cool kids have switched....

..... and some have switched back :!:

Nice and simple security flaw indeed. Interestingly severed limbs will be useless apparently.

It appears that nobody has touched upon the very important choice of colours.

The 5C actually has real colours and the 5S has black, white and gold to choose from. It's just all too confusing for me now :!:

Your kidding right?
Safeguards are in place to make it impossible for latex molds of a fingerprint, severed limbs or corpses to be used !!!

New meaning to digital technology ......

Wonder if a fresh digit would still work?

so I'm thinking of getting the new iPhone 5S. How do I maximise the points I can get out of this purchase? was thinking of using the velocity global store to do it online but the T&C's say that the purchase of the new iPhone 5C and 5S are not eligible for rewards.

I have the DJ platinum amex but don't think DJ stock iPhones.

I have the following cards to use:

DJ platinum amex
ANZ platinum amex
AMEX QF ultimate

or any other online portals that earn points?

If you purchased the handset from any dealer by using your CC you will get reward points.

I am a Telco dealer and sell them out right everyday and my customers get points.

Was in BigW today, they said they will have stock 5S for tommorow morning. They said only a limited amount of stores in their network sell iphones, something like 70 stores.

I warn anyone about to buy an iphone 5c or 5s that at the launch event the battery life is described as only being 'as good, or better', than the iphone 5.

I am amazed this was not the first thing they improved in the new model as it is by far the worst feature of the 5 (which I have had for almost a year). I am a reasonably heavy user of my phone and have to charge it twice per day.

If I had my time again I would have just bought a 4s for the much better battery life.

My Samsung Galaxy S4 with heavy use gives me well over a day, and with about 100 apps and 8 email accounts all being checked every 10 mins

Plus a few hours of calls....

Your Samsung Galaxy S4 is also laggy, lacks a dedicated storefront with amazing support and is also not a fully developed and intergrate ecosystem

My partner is not a I phone fan at all and she likes the look of the I phone 5C and also the feel of it...

She will be getting one tomorrow.

I got a new 4S outright when I was in the US earlier this year after my last 4S was stolen.

Not in any hurry to change to a 5 iAnything or indeed to iOS 7 - I'll wait a little bit until the people who rush out to download a new version of the OS are done.

If anything, I'd buy another 4S when in the US next year.

I will be surprised if 4S will be available next year and if so what sizes will be left in the range.
