This is a rant, just to warn you up front!
What's wrong with people. Every time Apple releases something new they find a way to bash it. I blame the media and then the lemmings that follow the hype.
Maps: This is by far the best maps software EVER included with the iOS. There are better maps out there. With my old iPhones I used Navigon, Waze, Trapster and CoPilot USA because Google maps sucked. Now that we have a better maps solution people are complaining. What did you loose? Street view? I used it as much as I use flyover; exactly one time. Great feature to show off your device but not really something I would use every day. I wanna know what those Map-gaters did before the iPhone was around. Did they find their way to the mailbox alright?
Weight and Design: It's lighter gizmodo, yes, it's lighter. The first time I touched the iPhone 5 (compared to iPhone 4S) it was very light, I wasn't used to it. It felt unusual. I was worried to scratch the aluminum in the back. But it just makes sense. If I would have been in charge of the iPhone I would have made the back glass again, then I remembered that I broke the rear glass on an iPhone... twice. And my gosh it's thinner. Isn't that what we asked for? My iPhone 5 is thinner than the battery was on the Motorolla brick phone just about a decade ago. Remember those? I didn't hear complaints then about how thin that was compared to its predecessor.
It scratches to easy: Well, if you are as delicate as an ogre it will not look pretty for long. Most I know use a case, I carry it naked. It's too beautiful to hide behind a piece of plastic, plus it makes it too think, flushing all the design ideas down the toilet.
Please people, all I'm asking is that you try things yourself before you jump on the bandwagon of haters out there knocking things you know little or nothing about. Remember Antenna-gate? I never had a problem. I was however able to replicate the "issue". Glass-gate? What you didn't hear about that? They say that there is a problem that when you take a hammer and hit the front the glass will break. That really sucks. Well I guess f*** you Apple for creating a device that cannot be hit with a hammer!
We are people of habit. Take the routine out of our daily lives and we are having issues adjusting. Welcome to Progress. Ask your grandparents, they didn't have issues adjusting to wiping their but with toilet paper.
This is my $0.02 about that.
