Re: iphone 5

yeah I thought the 5 was too light too. in a few days you get used to its weight in your hand though and it doesn't come to mind so much. so just bear with it! :p

Re: iphone 5

I had the 5 for a month. The processor is a bit faster, the camera was ok, the audio was decent. The 5 and 4S have the same camera, both are a dual core. The 5 should of had better specs. This is why I picked up a 4S and returned the 5. Literally not much has changed.

Literally...quite a bit changed. Just because you feel it was too similar to the 4S doesn't make it a fact, and while I could sit here and list all the differences between the two, I think anyone who was curious could just as easily go look up the iPhone wiki page and compare for themselves. I mean, from a cosmetic standard alone the phone is completely different...so adding the performance and software differences just further distances this device from the 4S.

Facts are facts...and the fact is, the iPhone 5 is significantly different than the 4S.

At the end of the day to me, the 5 is not a reasonable upgrade. Now if the 5S has that fingerprint sensor... Then I'll buy a 5... I like my privacy

When I had my 4s I would only get 5 to 8 hours at work some days 10 I would have to use my Morphie juice pack everyday my 5 on the other hand can go13 hours up to a day and 8 hours I have LTE on wifi on so the 5 is way different than the 4s in my eyes great upgrade

The first day I had my 5 I was nervous about how light it was because my cases hadn't arrived yet. That lasted a maximum of 2 days and now if I use a friends 4s or somthing it feels super heavy. I'm sure if I used that again for a few days I would be used to it as well so just give it a little time before you return it based on the weight. As someone else suggested, look into the Otterbox commuter case, it will help with your issue.
