I now have a iphone 5, does this mean im cool now?

[Frnkd]

Will people irl like me better now?

Please discuss

Yes, welcome to the club. There are others out there that may tell you different but whipping that iPhone out infront of android users exudes confidence, knowledge and superiority. You my friend has just become the target of all the "you should have gotten an android" android users. Why be uncool. Start collecting apps.....stress monkey is the best for recommending them.

I would say you we're cool before you got the iPhone

[SleeperService]

Nah, cool would be using something that no-one else does like Windows Phone.

*Looks at Lumia 820*

It's so lonely here.

So jealous man. I wanted to switch from the iphone4 to a Lumia 920 so bad but I had to purchase through work since they pay for the phone. My only options were the iphone5 or the Galaxy S3. So, GS3 it is.

OK, that was funny.

I bought my GF a Windows phone for Christmas - Lumia 710, and she loves it.

[RobRocks]

Retro brick phone that would be cool like what they used in the 1980s

[SleeperService]

Thanks, StressMonkey. Repped back.

MrNismo, the 920 is a fine phone but I found it a bit too big for me and I just don't suit cargo pants. The 820 hits the sweet spot for me.

Flex, truth is that, having owned an iPhone 3GS and currently using an Android Nexus 7 tablet, I actually prefer Windows Phone. It's just nice and clean. Unfortunately it's also about as popular as a fart in a spacesuit. I hope it makes it as it would be a shame if it didn't.

[Flounderbout]

absolutly not jajaj no offense but a phone doesnt change who you are lol and quite honestly you shouldnt feel like you need a shiny gadget so people will love you xd, you need to appreciate yourself for whou you are and if other poeple appreciate you or not is totally up to them you just have to surround yourself with positive people my frend and remember that material stuff is not what defines, your attitude does

^Not this.

A little while back I was in Met Bar with some film industry buddies of mine. We had just ordered some more Krystal (we were celebrating a major investment coup that I had pulled off - papers out ready to sign - $30m right there on the deal) when Scarlett J came in with some friends of hers. She was pretty down because she had just missed out the Les Miserables role to Anne Hathaway. Anyway one of the guys I was with knew her vaguely, so she came over and started chatting. Anyway cut a long story short, I got this thing going with here and this hot little brunette she was with (forget name - not important). Time comes when I'm thinking about heading off. At that stage I can tell that she is keen to find out more about my 5 x 5 program, and makes noises about coming back to mine. I obviously play noncommittal, but say that she can give me her number and maybe I will call her back.

She looks a bit upset, but agrees. At that stage I pull out my iPhone 4 to input her digits. Oh s$%t. She goes quiet, the bar goes quiet, everyone gapes at my iPhone 4. Then, with a dismissive wave of the hand, she turns on her heel and stalks out, brunette in tow. Meanwhile the brand new bottle of Krystal goes flying, and the deal papers are soaked. Worse, instead of replacing the papers and signing, the guys I am with are so mortified that they say they'll be in touch. I never heard from them again.

Well the loss of the deal sent my company under two weeks later. Meanwhile house market is dead here, so it wasn't long before the mortgage company had the keys to the Eton Square house. I lived in my Merc for a couple of weeks, but then the repo guys tracked me down and I have been going from hostel to hostel since.

My macros now are whatever I can find in the bins by the back of the supermarket. Only workout is cardio chasing rats for protein.

Still have my iPhone 4 though. Unbreakable 24 month contract. Guy from Carphone Warehouse comes by twice a week for head - turns out there is actually a "give head for dollarz" clause in the small print I never read.

Fckin phone.

[Brackneyc]

Iphone is the best. All others are chasing.

I never knew much about it; bought it on a whim as it was a nice looking little phone. She uses Hotmail to keep in touch with family and friends and it syncs up nicely on her phone. It's actually quite slick.

I have a Motorola RAZR droid phone, and to be honest I'm not sure what all the fuss is about.

Do you want me to give you a list of apps that are cool?

Yes. Just upgraded my 3GS to a 5 the other day.

Wow, the only one I recognize from already having it on my 3GS is IMDB. That is an essential! LOL.. I pause movies a lot to look up names.

Thanks...

Oh, I have HBO-GO, MAX-GO and Netflix if I really want to watch movies on a tiny screen.

TCM has an app, but thus far it does not play anything but clips and trailers.

You don't have to pause them anymore. This will identify them from the audio.

The Amazon video player is good if you have Amazon Prime. Lots of content to watch for no additional $$.

And you only have a few months to be cool before the next one is announced.

[whatevergirl]

If you haven't tried this new app already, try out the free 'sleep cycle' app. It's so cool.
Congrats on your new purchase, dj!

[acrawlingchaos]

Checking in to see if your phone is obsolete yet.

[SolidOakie]

I had a Droid for two years and just got the iPhone 5 last week and have never looked back. Such a superior product

[pharmamarketer]

Came in to say this. But your cool for now. I Phone 6 should be here anyway now. It is starting to remind me of the razor blade business. What could the 6 have that 5 doesn't. Maybe Siri will be able to give virtual lap dances on the next version

I've got my wallet ready.

I sold my 4S for $450 to Amazon. I'm taking good care of my 5 so I should be able to get a similar price for it. The last time I skipped a generation was the 4. I kept my 3GS for 2.5 years and I really regretted it (no Facetime, no retina display, slow as hell, etc).

I'm still holding out for one that has an 8-track tape slot...

[ghettocandyman]

IRL to be cool, when you first meet someone all you have to do is say what your rep power is


no hello

[Dr.Griefo]

Someone could make an app for that

[whatevergirl]

Question....anyone go from 3G to 4G and would u say there is a vast improvement? I have iPhone 4
