I got myself a silver 16gb, the only negative thing I've found is the action on the home button. Sure, I understand that it's because of Touch ID, but it just feels cheap when I hit the home button. But Touch ID works amazingly well so I think it's a fair trade-off.

Yeah. The phone didn't bend or anything . It's just the case was rather hard to get off, so I was worried when I was trying to pull it off I might have done something to the phone like bend it.

New phones make people over-react to the smallest things. Lol I'm not making fun I'm the exact same way

Anyway, the only bending I did was when I pulled the case of. I pushed on the back of the case to push the phone out. Then when the top was out enough I pulled the phone out. But like I said, it's a pretty tight fit.

Last Tuesday I believe. I ordered it from AT&T store then it was delivered on Monday. So it was a 6 day turn around. Not too bad I think :)

Does it matter if you don't have a fully charged battery when doing a factory restore? When I did it I had maybe around 45 percent battery left.

Its definitely advisable to restore with a full battery since you never know if things will go wonky for you, but (in my opinion) you should be ok doing a restore at 45%-50% if in a situation where its absolutely necessary, but your mileage may vary of course.

What do you mean "go wonky?"

Anyway, I did another restore with a full battery to be safe. I assume I'm all good? (Sorry, I'm paranoid about my new purchase.)?
