iPhone 5 Priced, Dated
Filed under: IPHONE, IPHONE 5, APPLE

After several rumors and initial reports, Apple finally announced iPhone 5, which has been "completely redesigned" with a new 4-inch Retina display; an Apple-designed A6 chip and ultrafast wireless technology. The iPhone 5 comes with the iOS 6, that has over 200 new features including: the all new Maps app with Apple-designed cartography and turn-by-turn navigation; Facebook integration; Passbook organization; and even more Siri features and languages.

"iPhone 5 is the most beautiful consumer device that we've ever created," said Philip Schiller, Apple's senior vice president of Worldwide Marketing. "We've packed an amazing amount of innovation and advanced technology into a thin and light, jewel-like device with a stunning 4-inch Retina display, blazing fast A6 chip, ultrafast wireless, even longer battery life; and we think customers are going to love it."

The device will be available on September 21 for $199 (16GB), $299 (32GB) and $399 (64GB) in the US, Canada, UK, Germany, France, Australia, Japan, Singapore and Hong Kong.

I don't own, never bought, never will buy and I'll never suggest to someone buying an apple product. And it has nothing to do with quality or popularity.

Apple can keep their expensive smartphones. Who needs all that shit? I've had my basic Cell Phone for 1.5 years, and it does everything I need.

I used to think that until I got one a year or so ago. I end up using it often on the road to order shit, look stuff up and even watch movies and game some. They are so much more than a phone. Smart phones are very powerful computers nowadays and I could never go back after getting so used to the easy way to do things fast.

I find this barely game-related, even if smart phones are beginning to get some fairly good quality hardware to run some possibly fun games.

I would piss on Jobs' grave well before I paid for an Iphone. Even then, I'd just pick up an android.

I think Philip Schiller almost had a self-induced orgasm right there on stage.

Apple sucks. You cannot start ipad without connecting it to itunes. WTF? if you buy something from them you are tied whit it and there is no other way to use devices besides their own way.

With Android you have much more fredoom.
