Got to say coming from a Blackberry Torch 9800 the iPhone 5 is a blessing. No idea when the BB10 will be available. Not a soul can tell me. Blackberry have lost yet another customer. Weaknesses of the Apple include battery life and personalisation capability. Nothing a jailbreak won`t sort. Quality exudes !!

        Hey GSMARENA, QUESTION!?!
        Why did you claim that the iPhone 4S & iPhone 5 has a Protection of Corning Gorilla Glass????
        I just check the Official website of Corning Gorilla glass (http://www.corninggorillaglass.com/#products-with-gorilla) and they Didn't mention that the Apple iPhone product is using Corning Gorilla Glass.

        This is a FALSE specs that you included in the iPhone Specs.. And even the Apple.com website (https://www.apple.com/iphone/specs.html) Didn't mention that their iPhone is a certified and has Corning Gorilla Glass!.

        Can you please answer this Question????
        Apple only use the oleophobic coating and not Corning Gorilla Glass.

                    I was going to buy iphone5 but on going thru so many comments/opinions, i have changed my mind due to hefty price. Samsung or others shall definately be better options. Sorry Apple.

The info on thi... moreYeah, i had it confirmed by everyone i know who have iphone5, the battery was and is and will always be a joke. The "optimized OS" is a big lie, small batteries are, uhm, as their rating suggest, small. Expect no miracles.

                      I even saw someone using a handcranked pocketsize generator on the bus to top up their iphone 5. Then for sure things are getting a little too ridiculous and iphone 5 S better have nearly 2000mah if apple want to keep their empire.

                            This phone has some great features. It's main down side is battery life sucks! The info on this site is not correct regarding battery life, even after following suggestions else where to preserve life.
                            With minimal talk and web use battery may last a day and a half.
