Now that I dropped a few hundred $$ on cases for the 4S I'm hoping for no reason to upgrade for a few years. lol

"a few hundred $$ on cases"!?

You might have well just bought a back up iPhone instead of spending it on protecting the one you have.

Anything is better than Android. I waited more than 6 months after Google released any updates only to get horribly buggy and crap-ware infested updates from Verizon.

unfortunately some carriers can certainly corrupt the android software code with their own modifications and bloatware,only thing you can do is complain,only sim free models can be truly safe from this but some carriers are more guilty than others

Welcome back andro. How was your vacation?

23. andro. (Posts: 1999; Member since: 16 Sep 2011)

Soothing,relaxing and also a few night of celebrations with friends,must say it was class stuff!

it is a great idea. im sure we'll see this coming to many devices in the near future.

every phone manufacturer obviously always releases new versions and models of their phones. is that not worth reporting?

these new firmware versions for the ios are similar to the firmware updates for android from the cupcake to ice cream sandwich, sometimes significant upgrades, sometimes not. regardless, people will always be interested in them.

fair point, but these updates are too insignificant. Things like 5.0.2 can be reported when its actually released instead.

well good morning.. .ladies and gentlemen.. we have the 1st troll.. please give him a round of applause and ... show him the door....

14. andro. (Posts: 1999; Member since: 16 Sep 2011)

I've tried to show many such complaining customers the door today but we if we could get away with that we'd have somebody hired for just that job alone!!

Andro how come in your shop you have all these unhappy Apple customers and everywhere else iPhone has the best customer satisfaction ratings?

You're trolling.

22. iamcc (Posts: 1319; Member since: 07 Oct 2011)

Even if the iPhone does have the best customer satisfaction ratings that doesn't change the fact that a lot of people ARE experiencing the issues he described with the iPhone4S.

24. andro. (Posts: 1999; Member since: 16 Sep 2011)

Those who answer the customer satisfaction ratings are generally those who are continually on apple boards and wear the apple tattoo on the forehead and reply to these surverys,those instore daily are quite the opposite,most haven't heard of these surveys and don't know where or how they could respond,infact most surveys given to them are carrier based these days for carriers to try keep their custom

Most are not only angry at the network carriers for not supporting them against apple but also that apple does not acknowlege their phones obvious truobles. The 'silent calls' fault of iphone 4s is quite real and many iphone 4s have been returned so far which we have had to sent to apple for dead on arrival testing to swap out for new phones.

The 'silent call' issue for outgoing calls is quite a widespread issue and although Phonearena strangely hasn't picked up the story yet it has been reported on many many other websites as well as apple forums being undated with reports and complaints of it.

Perhaps phonearena hasn't posted it yet in fear of anger from apple fans and flame wars!!

I would believe you. if you can show me proof.. other than your trolling opinion.. ?...

33. andro. (Posts: 1999; Member since: 16 Sep 2011)

Customer info is never divulged in public ;)

35. iamcc (Posts: 1319; Member since: 07 Oct 2011)

Why is his opinion considered trolling?

38. taco50 (banned) (Posts: 5506; Member since: 08 Oct 2009)

because he's obviously lying. According to him 40% of iPhones are returned and the iPhone 4S is not selling well. This is the exact oppossite of all the data available.

41. gallitoking (Posts: 4721; Member since: 17 May 2011)

ok this is why...

"troll is someone who posts inflammatory,[2] extraneous, or off-topic messages in an online community, such as an online discussion forum, chat room, or blog, with the primary intent of provoking readers into an emotional response[3] or of otherwise disrupting normal on-topic discussion."
