THE **iPhone** Thread (GPS, JailBreak, Apps, Etc)

It’s Google? They love each other…

my maps on the iphone 5 says supported by TomTom and others, maybe the switch screwed everything up?

Apple partnered with TomTom and Waze to make the IOS6 Maps app.

Google is no longer involved

Google maps has footpaths in many public and private parks. This new maps shit is horrendous. Turn by turn is great if you’re retarded and can’t read a fucking map.

“we’ve already noticed that on the black model the edge has started to wear, revealing the shiny silver aluminium metal underneath the “slate” coloured coating and, indeed, we’ve witnessed it on two separate models, ruling out a fluke manufacturing error.”

Yikes!

^Or over the age of 60

So it scratches if you try to scratch it with your keys?

:lol:

The first time some 3rd party app ruins me figuring out a public transit system somewhere im going to buy a S3

Yeah if you’re putting any smartphone in your pocket/purse with keys, you’re an idiot.

I would imagine most people toss iPhones im sort sort of case

Instead of worrying about breaking a $600 glass and aluminum thing

I guess I should buy some sort of case lol. I’ll be using the maps later, lets see how bad it sucks :sigh:

Anywhere a TomTom would take you this will do the same.

People are pissed about level of detail and public transit missing.

Not the keys part… the part where he says people are noticing wear on the edges from normal use…

edit: try reading the article and not just staring at pictures.

It’s Apple, people buy it for the polish and level of detail…

I read the article

“we’ve witnessed it on two separate models”

How many millions of phones got sold?

You know what I did then? Searched google and all the references point back to the idiot using his key on it.

It’s day 1, how many do you think they have access too?

Edit: I guess they had a few days with it.

Time will tell I suppose.

try clicking the second link…

You’d be pressed to think there was no difference in how black & slate and white & silver iPhone 5 models withstood wear and tear stemming from daily use. That said, you’re in for a surprise as some folks apparently have discovered that both the anodized aluminum back and the chamfered edges of the black iPhone 5 are conspicuously more prone to wear versus its white counterpart…

Pocket-lint notes in its review that the black iPhone 5 model started developing unpleasant signs of wear around its beautiful chamfered edges after a few days of heavy use, revealing the shiny silver aluminium metal underneath the slate colored coating

If your going to post an article at least do something with actual content

OK, thanks for supporting my argument…

Edit: you’re* :wink:

Apparently there are 2 scuffs in this picture?

TomTom’s statement was along the lines of, “we provided the data, what they did with that data is up to them”

This just in, anodizing is a surface treatment.

next thing you’re going to tell me is that driving my car is going to result in chips in its paint.

HOLY FUCK

fucking retards

Is this not the “yellow screen” / “antenna gate” all over again?

I’m pretty sure I owned a launch day ip4 and never had an issue…
