HARDWARE:
Camera: Takes although until these "started", then does but good to very good photos. Unfortunately, that leaves much to the dark.
Processing residual housing: Ansich the iPhone processed well. Whether a built-in battery is now more positive (less space) or negative (no own exchange or removal at crash) is debatable. The Home button is, however, also become a bit sluggish over time, which definitely represents a point deduction, because she is very common in use. The case is but unfortunately also scratches Susceptible what was always seen more clearly with time.
Display: The display is super! The touch screen responds instantly to input, the brightness is well adjusted and the colors also look not pale. If Apple would only produce displays, they were certainly the leader in it. ;)
However, one should use a protective film, but that's the smartphone actually granted.
SOFTWARE:
Apps: There is an app for almost everything, what the hardware will bear. Whether you have a shopping list, query his account with the bank, be entertained by games or want to scan a bar code: The apps make it possible.
iOS (6): iOS 6 is a still immature operating system. Most annoys me of being thrown out of Google, or Maps and YouTube, where YouTube has equated an app available. But how can you ask the Card App throw when your own is still in the "alpha phase"? Cloud cover, pixels, renaming of cities, places and buildings .. When the Berlin Hauptbahnhof still carries its old name, the fun stops. Google binds the rail links with one, improves the card more and Apple replaced the with a not really useful app. Even the keyboard is no longer operating as reliable as in the previous iOS 5. Sometimes those hooked and processes the inputs not as fast as before.
iTunes or the test data to play on the iPhone: I hate iTunes. Maybe a bad start for an objective report, but that's the biggest drawback to mM of Apple. I would not only need to copy music in iTunes, but directly into the iPhone "draw in" can. Why? Because otherwise I need iTunes. And what if you can not install iTunes?
I was able to make friends with iTunes, more or less. At least until my PC gave up the ghost and I had to switch on the laptop. Since I have otherwise only Win7 computer, I download iTunes Extra. On the laptop contained the previous version of iTunes, which is a point number (!) Before the current. I joined my iPhone and iTunes told me I needed to update the version, because the iPhone would not be usable with the existing iTunes otherwise. (Why? Went three days previously but also great, so why suddenly no longer?) Apple thus forcing me the new iTunes on, I click "Refresh". Shortly before the end comes a "unexpected error" and the installation stops. Even reinstalling iTunes to no avail. Toll.
When I tried my contacts to copy to the SIM (which does not allow Apple), I realized that I'm going to sell the part! 6 months Apple were indeed a not unpleasant experience, but expensive accessories, immature software and coercion to certain programs I get somewhere else, much cheaper!
2 stars I give for the display, the app-diversity and iOS 5 (not 6!)
