    Are YOU ok with no audio jack??

    I've actually thought about that. The Edge may be my next purchase. :)

    Are YOU ok with no audio jack??

    I am OK with removing the headphone jack. I really only use it at work listening to podcasts so I'll probably keep the included adapter connected to my earbuds. Everywhere else, I use Bluetooth. Bedroom, bathroom, and living room have Bluetooth speakers and I replaced the head unit in my car...

    Ordered 8:13 on the 9th - delivery 26th????

    I must have lucked out or certain carriers just had fewer people ordering. I ordered at 4:44 AM Eastern (1:44 AM Pacific) for a 256GB Jet Black iPhone 7 on AT&T and have a 9/16 confirmation. The phone is actually moving according to UPS My Choice. Left China about 5 hours ago.

    iPhone 7 Only --- Pre-Order thread

    I hadn't planned on pre-ordering, but I happened to wake up around 4:30 AM Eastern and decided to check. I figured my choice would be in short supply and shipping in weeks or months, being 90 minutes after going live. I got to the selection page, and it was still listed as 9/16. I heard the...

    128gb VS 256gb

    I think this is what you were looking for. These are approximations. Note that the 128GB and 256GB won't have anywhere near 128GB or 256GB available out of the box.

    iPhone 7 Only --- Pre-Order thread

    Ordered iPhone 7 - Jet Black - 256GB. Wanted 128GB but, at that point, 256GB was still delivering on 9/16 so that made my decision for me.

    [Official] Best iPad Mini Case

    I just got my Speck FitFolio today and love it. I always love Speck products though. Protects well though it was a tight squeeze getting it in there. Like you said, many angles for video viewing and typing. I had been using a SmartCover and a POS clear case from X-Doria. Everyone do...

    Speck CandyShell Issue

    Thank you. I'll give the mild detergent and water a shot tonight. I figured the alcohol may dry out or otherwise damage the rubber so after I tried it once and it didn't work I didn't press my luck. :)

    Speck CandyShell Issue

    I've had Speck CandyShells for my iPhone 4, 4S and 5 and have recommended them to all my friends and family because I think they're good-looking and protect well. My mom's saved her iPhone 4S from a fall; the bottom thin strip near the charging port broke but her iPhone is still perfect. It...

    How is your iPhone 5 battery life?

    Everyone I've talked to has said their battery life is horrible. Mine is ok. I took it off the charger at 6:00 this morning and 5 hours later I'm at 46% and I've been using it quite a bit. At this pace I'll get 10 hours. I can't complain. As Phil says, be a man, charge your device! :)

    LTE's Effect on HSPA+ (AT&T)

    Re: LTE's Effect on HSPA+ (AT&T) I do realize that HSPA+ is technically not 4G however that's what all the carriers are calling it now and that's what the icons on our phones show so to differentiate between LTE and HSPA+ I just used their terminology. Marketing confusion aside, I...

    LTE's Effect on HSPA+ (AT&T)

    I've noticed, even before the iPhone 5 launch, AT&T's 4G HSPA+ speeds have been downright abysmal. This may be coincidence but this has come at the same time that AT&T is rolling out LTE in my area. I've noticed this at both work and home. It happened at work first some 3-4 months ago maybe...

    This is the best I've gotten. Just got it this morning. In Exton, PA.

    10pm Ordering Works :)

    I love the 10 PM ordering deal. Enjoying my 2nd night as an iPhone 5 owner. :) Simple process and near-instant gratification.

    Weekly Photo Contest: Avatars!

    Taken with iPhone 4S front camera. Imported into Instagram to crop and filter. I love this picture. I wear earphones or headphones about 10 hours a day... my poor ears in about 20 years; oh well. I love my white Beats and I love my music so this picture just says "Travis" to me. The picture...

    2012 iMore community Twitter user name exchange

    My name's Travis. My Twitter ID is @tqmcguire. I try to make to all the Wednesday night podcasts and chat with the awesome people in the chat room. I'm always willing to talk about anything to do with Apple, iOS, etc. My Apple products run my life... I (happily) blame iMore for it. :)

    What kind of headphones are you using now?

    Seconded. These are the best earbuds I've ever used. The Etymotic ER-4's are crystal clear but there's just so little bass. I need at least some bass. The Klipsch S4i's have a near perfect balance. Not overpowering in either direction.

    What is your absolute favorite case for your new iPad?

    I'm a big Speck fan. The iPad 2 Smart Shell cases "fit" my new iPad but I didn't like how tight they were. Left little scuff marks on the back. Hopefully they rework them soon. I'm only using a Smart Cover right now and resting the bottom on a microfiber towel when it's sitting on my desk.

    New iPad Won't Wake Up

    I use my new iPad at work, just like I did with my iPad 2, to track appointments, take notes and check Facebook and Twitter of course. Anyway, it sits on my desk tethered to my iPhone 4S and every once in a while (twice so far this morning) it won't wake up when I hit the Home button or...
