I got a 32gb 4s in September it's been replaced twice and now due for another replacement!

1st error was I was echoing to other callers
2nd a screen defect which I swapped this Sunday

And now the one I've got is echoing again.

I'm a fan boy but even this is testing !

 

Build quality, that is the least of their problems, apple have been refused a ban on Samsung products. That was their only hope of stopping their continued decline.

 

SHHHHHHH!!!!!!

The Fandroids are circling!!!

"Move along, nothing to see here".

 

It's terrible. You just can't get the quality of child labour you used to.

 

I've had every iPhone from the 2 to the 4s (not bothered about the 5)

And this the only one I've had constant problems , wouldn't be too bad but it's a 2 hour round trip everytime

 

I like my 4S But it irritates me the amount of call that fail Or is that Vodafone's crap network?

I'm surprised that Kirkby has Phone signal's (Sorry)

 

Jack waxes lyrical about apple stores being just about everywhere, I guess he was wrong

 

I will continue to build my own then!

Les

 

Vodafone has got much worse. The company that I work for uses it and it used to be by far the best signal. However, my wife has EE (Orange to be precise) and she gets a much better signal than me most of the time.

 

 

never had an issue with my 4s and it doesn't drop calls, and i'm on ee

 

Most people who have iPhones seem to have another phone to make calls on

 

My 5 is pretty cack for Bluetoothing (my 4S was fine) and definitely drops calls.

Otherwise it's not bad but £600ish is a TOTAL rip off.

I have a PAYG SE Active (waterproof, shockproof, very small) on Orange for using in our village - no O2 reception at all! Got an O2 boostbox at home/office which whacks it up to full bars (and 3G) but only inside the house.

 

A friend of mine has a 5, the finish doesn't look very durable. He's not had it long but the black finish is already looking really tatty round the edges.

It sounds like you've been rather unlucky, always found my iphones to be reliable. Are you getting the new ones from the Apple store? I'm rather sceptical getting phones swapped by phone companies.

 

I heard the ipad minis bit of flop relatively

 

I have just picked up an i phone 5 today and its a PITA! to use, Everything about it screems awkward! so i have gave it to the wife and im still happily using my s2.

 

I have an iphone 4, due for an upgrade in April after my 24 month contract. It has been working perfectly up until last month when I dropped it and the screen now has huge cracks in it, the battery only lasts me till 5pm, and the loud speaker is a bit dodgy. Regardless, I'll still be getting the iphone 5 come April time.

 

Same here (work phone)

 

man, don't mention stuff like that here you will get the mick taken out of you

 

It is mostly orange coloured and does look a wee bit gay... ;-)

 

We've not had a problem with my wife's white 16gb 4S but this 32gb is a pita

 

Software update came through today (6.0.2 I think?) which might help?!

 

Sorry but

Seriously, you are only realising its faults 'now'?

 

Eh?

Could you please name your 100% fault/problem free phone please.

Thanks.

 

There's none so blind as those who cannot see.

 

Too late :-) should have brought a galaxy s2, cheaper and more reliable. No screen problems here. And the best thing, its not made by apple.
Ps. Sorry to here about screen issues

 

Yes, any non-Apple phone.
(excluding a lot of Nokias though, I'll admit!)

 

The fandroids are rampant on this thread with their free and problem free handsets. LOL.

Here's todays news Fandroids http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-20768996 Spam it up.

 

But when you are blinded by 'fashion'........

 

I take it you just looked at the title Jack and didn't read the rest?
Like anything, be it ios/android/windows os and get your downloads from an unofficial source, you are asking for trouble.
