Will stick with Apple, most likely get the iPhone 5 in December when I am due for my upgrade with Verizon.

Like others said the iPhone is just very user friendly and until I have an issue with it like I did with my past phones, (Blackberry and Droid) I will not switch from Apple. Hell my iPhone 4 went for a 10 min swim in my pocket in Schroon Lake and still works, beat that Android.

“Experts” expect the new iPhone will generate 0.5% of this countries GDP. not because of apple consumers but through carrier contract renewals

In December my contract will renew and I will lose the unlimited plan, but it won’t make a difference to me, the data plan I would use and keep my bill the same price will not hurt me. I won’t use that much date anyway.

But you don’t HAVE to renew right? You can just keep paying for that plan once the 2yr contract expired. You only lose it if you buy a new phone subsidize by a new 2yr contract, then you are being forced into their tier data plan right?

I also have my unlimited grandfathered in as long as I don’t sign a new contract. I love my unlimited data, probably will have to start buying ebay phone just to keep my plan from now on…😢

Yup, 100% free. was a hand me down from sister when she bought a version three. I was told $700 for the ip5 but some sources are about as reliable as a mid 90’s chrysler. I’m just being an ass here, Apple has good stuff. My sister is an apple nut and is always on the up and up about it.

I’m just not that much of a phone fag to care about it. as long as I can get ahold of people, read the damn screen, and occasionally check an email or two on the go it’s more than enough for me. FAR too many people these days live on their fucking phones and it’s a wee bit ridiculous if you ask me…

I have had an android phone, it was a total piece of shit…I am really happy with my iPhone 4, and will not be upgrading to the 5, because 1.) i am not up for an upgrade and I don’t have 700 bux. and 2.) my 4 works awesome! They are simple and I have never had an issue, my droid crashed like 3 times a week. And as far as the iPhone 5, it’s awesome, but I am way more excited about iOS6 being available for my phone. But whatever, to each their own, I know a few people who will use nothing but a droid based phone, and I know people who will never use anything but apple products. Either way they are still way overpriced for a phone…lol

My iphone has been solid, way more reliable than the junk android stuff I switched from. I don’t care if stuff is proprietary, IT WORKS. Also no broken screens ever.

People go buy some shitty Verizon Droid and then wonder why they suck. My “old” HTC Incredible runs laps around most Androids and iphones, with exception to the new samsung galaxy 3 (best phone out IMO, which I will get soon). Not all droids are the same, however the iphones are all the same. Limited, locked, and idiot proof. I think it’s funny that new functions iphone people brag about having, have been on Android platforms for 2 years already haha.

Yeah I don’t get why people complain about that either. I’ve only ever broken screens when I’m dumb enough to drop the phone in the driveway unknowingly and then proceed to drive over it when leaving. It’s as though people use them to prop up a crooked table at the bar or something and then wonder why their shit’s all busted :dunno

Well I’ll admit I have an otterbox. Somepeople complain about the size but I think its fine and makes it seemingly bombproof.
