“No. They sell the 5 and the 4S, with a new model likely to come out this fall - any previous versions would be sold as refurb units only”
We know of a small group of I5 users, who are extremely unhappy with the product. This group doesn’t know each other, and we are the common link. They run the gamut of serious users who need the product daily for their business to those I call Apple junkies.
Interesting, two of the disappointed one’s spouses still have the I4S, and they are still very happy with their I4S’s.
It may be bad batches as many of those with new I5’s are very happy, including some guys, who use their I5’s for serious business each day.
I have the 4S myself, don’t think I’ve ever even seen a 5 up-close and in-person. But I’m a bit out of sync on the update cycles, too.
Funny thing, I rarely use my phone as a PHONE. I use it all the time for data, so I may actually not upgrade the phone next year, but pick up an iPad (maybe Mini) instead if I can find a lower-cost data-only plan and then just get one of the low-cost prepaid phone plans for those rare times I actually make or take calls.
