      There are some reports that said the new sync / charge cable's USB connector is too tight and hard to pull out.




      ok for mine but i am still looking for a adaptor to connect the new cable on old charger. Frustrating that i have only one cable to share.
      PSLE season and still headache with charging iphone 5.
      :siao: :oops: 🤷

          I just ordered yesterday and they just called me saying that they are delivering my black 64GB tomorrow noon. I was surprised and told them I thought I have to wait for awhile and they told me new stock just came in…


          Someone I know sold his iphone 5 for a immediate $200 profit. We are under corp plan and I think the price looks good. Below $300 for 64GB and the plan is around $40+ per month.

          Is accessories available already??? Where to find them? Thinking of getting the privacy filter.

                  The biggest complaints about the iPhone 5


                  DigitalOne | 26-09-12

                  http://www.digitalone.com.sg/news/article/20705

                  It's been almost a week since Apple's big launch, and complaints are streaming in about the problems people have encountered with the new iPhone.

                  Some complaints are well-known, while others are surprising, considering that they're coming from users who waited so eagerly to get their hands on the device.

                  Ranging from aesthetics to connectivity problems, here are some of the issues described by new iPhone 5 users.

                  Maps app is horrible. The disasters iOS6 users have faced since upgrading their system have been well-documented. An entire city is in the ocean, a farm has been labeled as an airport, highways end in the middle of nowhere and a hospital now covers the entire center of British city Stratford-upon-Avon, Shakespeare's home

                  The app is already facing criticism from users globally for a number of geographical errors, missing information and because it lacks features that made Google Maps so popular, including public transit directions, comprehensive traffic data or street view pictures.

                  Rattling noise. Some users have posted videos on YouTube reporting that a loose component in the phone is causing a rattling noise when they shake the phone.

                  Scratches easily. Some iPhone owners have reported that the phone's aluminium casing scratches easily. iFixit ran an experiment by scratching the back of a black iPhone 5 with keys and a steel ring.

                  The scratches were more evident as compared to the same treatment on the glass panel of an iPhone 4S. A spokesperson from Apple said: \"Any aluminum product may scratch or chip with use, exposing its natural silver color. That is normal.\"

                  Poor WiFi signal. Some users have complained that they are unable to connect to WiFi through their iPhone 5. Apple has yet to come up with a solution.

                  Light leaks. It has been reported that light leaks can be seen from the corners of the phone's screen.

                  'No SIM Card Installed' error. Users have complained to Apple that the phone does not detect their Sim card. The problem can be solved either by restarting the phone, or having the Sim card replaced at your local telco.

                  Too light and too thin. Several Twitter users complained that the iPhone 5 was too thin and light, describing it as \"flimsy\" and did not feel as solid as previous versions of the phone.

                  Poor battery life. New iPhones often elicit complaints about poor battery life. However, this is debatable because of factors such as apps that drain battery life and heavy smartphone usage.

                  Confused Siri. Website MacRumors reported that Siri mixed up the cities of St Louis in Missouri, and the city of the same name in Georgia. When asked for the weather in New York City, Siri gave the weather forecast for New York, Texas instead.

                        I just got iphone 5, have been using it for almost a week. So far I find it very good…fast, much faster than iphone 4s and also the apps work fine for me…hoping it will last. Am a bit dismayed to find so many complains about it over here.
