Keep ... moreMate, you need a reality check, I've had the black iPhone5 for two weeks but after 3-4 days the edges started to rub off with a silver colour coming through. I have not dropped it. Looks terrible. These edges would be less noticeable on the white version, but I don't do white. Also the screen freezes intermittently so I'm off to Apple on the w'end to swap it hopefully.

                  Went to my apple store in my area. Metrotown Burnaby.

                  Did a scratch test on my own. Keep in mind these are units that are used by thousands of people per week. Looked at a white unit, no scratch marks. Decided to give it a good scratching. No scratch marks appear.

                  The rumors that this phone is easily scratcheable is the biggest b.s known to man. If you don't treat any phone devices with care, it will be scratched! No questions asked. Anyone who owns a ip5, is stupid not to get a protective case for a 700 dollar phone. But anyways, but on the scratch, there were not visable scratch marks after I scratched it. People complainging about the scracthing issue, is probably a careless iphone owner, or a Android phone user posing as a ip5 owner and complaining about it. Nuff said. You don't believe me? go to your apple store and just scracth the phone. Of course not superhard, just regular scratch. B.S. Android users will use whatever tactic they can say to slam the ip5.

                    I got like at least 7 friends that own a s3. I decided to play around with his Galaxy 3. One of the things Galaxy s3 users will not there admit, is the glitches and problems with their phone. Because this will expose that phone for what it is. A great phone with many features, however the problems are still there. The S3 is an easy bandwagon to bash the crap outta apple. It's obvious, and a lot of times, we have android users posing as ex apple users saying they are moving to the s3. Really?

                    Dropped calls, random phone reboots, random crashing, random page reloads, waiting for updates, waiting other updaters to fix another problem, have fun with that android users. I was on a call with my friend who just got a s3.

                    Dropped call!. LOL WTF!

                    Went onto youtube, I wanted to see the trailer for the movie "looper". First time, It loaded up resident evil ressurection trailer. 2nd time, it loaded a trailer for another movie. finally the 3rd time, it loaded up Looper. Is this a youtube issue, or the phone issue?

                    Was on NCIX.com, I needed the wide view, to look at the page, so I turned the phone sideways, to see sideways view, bloody thing reloaded the entire site!! So I lost my search! WTH.

                    Is the S3 really that good? Or just hype! Hype matters too, but for a phone that has this much problem, they must bull sh itting. Anyways Ip5 >>>S3. Ironically, you can go into the s3 page on gsm arena! There is someone complaining about the phone on at least 1 per page.

                      2012 is quadcore era. this is only dualcore and poor battery capacity too. low screen size only 4 inch. huawei is better than iphone 5. samsung LG sony high end products are far far better than iphone5

                          I was an iPhone 4 user before I switched to a Samsung Galaxy S III as I was bored with my iPhone 4 and I wanted to try something new. And so I did. The Samsung Galaxy S III was good phone but I eventually got pissed by it occasionally freezing and some apps crashing. It was a nice phone but the my experience with it unfortunately wasn't all that nice. And now, I've purchased a new iPhone 5. It's all so different from and better than Samsung Galaxy S III. It's so fast, and buttery smooth, never encountered a single crash on my apps. I just love it. I don't get the hate. People should really try the iPhone 5 first before bashing it. Because I've already tried probably the best Android phone and my experience with it is just not comparable to my experience with the iPhone 5. To me, nothing beats the iPhone 5 for the best user experience.
