I wouldn't watch a film on my phone regardless of whether I had an iPhone, HTC or what ever when I've got a much bigger and better quality screen that I can watch it on

Main thing being the construction, the 5 feels so nice to hold and it's very light! And it's quicker than a 4s from my brief play in the apple shop

Overall given the reduced thickenss and weight the iPhone 5 feels smaller than the 4/4S.

It does, it's very nice to hold. Bt thanks to my stubby hands I can't reach the top of the screen

Yes its still a struggle regardless of what Apples new advert for it says.

You're right about it being quicker, going from an iPhone 4 which I thought was plenty quick enough it was night and day (can't speak for 4S owners though).

Can you not do a backup (preserving the contacts) and then do a swap at your local Apple store?

Local store is currently an hour and half away. I'm in Birmingham Sat - so asked for there and they have no appts till next weds, and im in Manchester sunday, have none in trafford center or arndale untill Wednesday.

Shame you can't just "nip in" and get it changed.

Has anyone else's tethering menu appeared? I'm on Three and I'm able to tether, I don't think I should have that option as I haven't paid for it.

Have you actually done it though? I used to be able to then i changed the contract on my 4 to unlimited data and the option is still there, i can still set up a personal hotspot, but the other device cant connect to the net.

So the option is there, but it doesnt work.

Flickering randomly.

And no...

Work 9-5 and always busy on a weekend to go to apple shop (nearest over an hour 15 away).

I refuse to pay £30 for instant swap as i've paid enough for the phone already, and I cannot be without the phone for 7-10 days, as there's an app I use on it for invoicing daily. I no longer have a spare iphone to use it on either.

Anyone got a 16Gb iPhone 5? Are you having trouble with memory size?

Went into my local phone shop to ask for one, and the guy was telling me how some people have been complaining how little memory there is when using ios 6, and that I would be better off getting bigger memory at a higher up front cost, and monthly cost.

Now I thought this is a bit odd, and thought the guy was trying to sell me the 32Gb for a better commission. My current usage (using iOS 5.1) says that I have 4Gb spare out of 16Gb.

Is the 16Gb iPhone 5 actually an issue, or is the guy trying to pull a quick one on me?
