    This is the best iphone
    Really light waight really professional looking
    Easy to use no complicated options simple and smart phone.the battery stays two days ,if you use the phone normal without 3g and only using wifi time to time love Iphone 5,even if you had open all the apps in the phone phone doesnt even become little slow.
    Never had issues with calls really hight quality sounds

    Please avoid posting wrong comments about this phone

      this is my first i-phone, having migrated from a blackberry and aside from the better apps, i am not impressed. does anyone have problems with the phone? In the middle of a call, the call fails....I can hear the other person, they can't hear me and the call says 'failed' and the screen freezes. I often can't even make an outgoing call because the call fails. The internet is slow at times and the battery life is rubbish. Anyone having the same problems?

        Low quality casing easily scrached, metal casing is not like iPhone 4 or 4s.
        I suggest to avoid spend too much money
        buy samsung

              Android will also never come close to apple in terms of $$
              Apple products are OverRated. (Not to mention, costly)

                          Nothing new or innovative. I don't understand all the fuss. It's just a normal, almost mediocre phone, especially when compared to all the other high-end phones out there.

                          I don't know if Apple is going through a slump or something, but I honestly see no reason to buy this phone.

                            Yes Androids do lag! But it was past... Don't u guys see the difference with the same price u get a droid thts powerful not to give u any lags especially when it's on JB with Project Butter it's really smooth. Apple is far behind from Androids now! Now they have started to copy features from Android like they copied Android's GB pull down notification which wasn't available on IOS 4. So people wakeup from ur Delima. IPhone won't make u feel creative, innovative or RICH! It's just a piece of jewellery

                                  Extremely good phone. Bought it after a 2 year experience with androids Can really feel the difference. The bulid quality is very nice. Its performance is The Best. No lags. No issues. Now owning it since a month. Really great phone. I have a black iphone and feel that it looks better than the white one.
