No! No! No!

Yes, Apple have nowt in, fairy-nuff, but maps are old/need updated, signal loss joins the '5', lack of real updates/fixes abound. Oh well.
Mine went back as well as did its AppleCare. I was unable to sell my perfect 4S as it has IOS6 - some don't want old maps/lack of detail. A jailbreak may cure that but.. nah.
I'm always honest and make no apologies for that.
The '5' screen isn't as touch-friendly as the 4s. It's faster, yes, but has no [un-censored] [un-censored]!!.

Not good.....Only problem I had was battery drain but thats now sorted.
I have noticed that gestures seems to be slightly less flexible, such as scrolling in more than one direction at once.
Other than that, quite happy with it, or more a case of, relieved to have got rid of the Sammy.
What have you gone for instead, or are you going back to the 4S?
|
|
|
Back on my 4S, w/ios6.

Cheap adaptors should be available soon for those who want to bypass the Apple tax.
|
|
|
|
I would rather buy Apple kit than cheapos, then again, I do not need an adapter.
|
|
|
Why the need for chips in leads to make copy cables difficult?
Just annoying to have to keep adaptors for so many things

It's a shame that they didn't adopt a standard connector such as mini-USB.
As for your question - fairly obvious I would think!
|
|
|
Because Apple is Apple
|
|
|
|
I prefer the new connector to both the old 30 pin jobbie and mini-sub, more stable and secure IMO!
|
|
|
|
I've never had any problems with mini-USB on a number of different devices. And the great thing is one cable fits all.
I would be very happy if all rechargeable devices used the same connector and the same power supply; saves having a box full of cables and PSUs for devices that probably died years ago.
|
|
|
I know - markup on cables is very good, one person was buying 7 when I picked up my mini USB one.

I like being able to dock my phone into a cradle. With the Galaxy Note, it was rather awkward, as was the 30 pin Apple connector, and the one on the Galaxy Tab which looks like the Apple one but is proprietory to Samsung.
|
|
|
Supposedly the chip is there to determine what the cable is being used for (data & power or just power). But, as was pointed out in the office, why doesn't the phone just do that?
There as a report on the web yesterday that (IIRC on Engadget) that a Chinese company has cracked the encryption and non-Apple versions would me forthcoming.

That is the explanation that I have seen. But USB cables have no need for this, and why the need for encryption? The only logical explanation, to my mind, is an attempt to control the market, and hence the price.

I would hazard a guess that your conclusion is absolutely spot on.

never really???

It's OK. As has already been posted, the encryption has been cracked.
|
|
|
|
I wasn't at all bothered, I have the cables I need and would only buy Apple anyway.
If someone is going to spend 700 notes on a phone, why skimp on everything else?
Anyway, iPad mini soon, so that will be another thing to slather over (licks lips).
Just wish the new iMac would come........
|
|
|
|
I'm not a fan of all-in-one-computers. But I like my Mac Mini.
|
|
|
I love the iMAC but the Mac Mini looks like a really decent bit of kit too. Would match the Time Capsule and APE stacked on top of each other
|
|
|
Quad-core i7 and mirrored 500GB disks in a box that small - can't be bad.
|
|
|
|
Nice, but I prefer something a little beefier myself, hence the iMAC.
I would have thought you would be better off with a smaller SSD drive then a separate NAS......
My NAS of choice is the Lacie 5Big Network 2, 15TB jobbie, lovely bit of kit.
|
|
|
I would have thought you would be better off with a smaller SSD drive then a separate NAS...... What seperate NAS?
|
|
|
|
I mean an SSD drive for the Apple and a separate NAS for your data storage, but then it all depends how much you store.
|
|
|
|
Oh, I see what you mean. Conventional hard disks are plenty fast enough for me, but NAS is just too slow. I do have a separate NAS (home built) for TM backups, and also to backup data from other computers, but I wouldn't use it for primary data storage.
I have an SSD on my Windows 7 machine, where it seems to be needed more.
|
|
|
Yes I think as far as Windows is concerned, it does tend to need all the help it can get
