My thoughts on the iPhone5 so far


Ok, so the famous and most sought after smart phone is now out. I know this blog post about the iPhone should have come earlier but I think now that the dust is settling we can all see why in my last post about the iPhone I was so critical about this Californian Tech giant(Apple). It was obvious that people were not going to be wowed by apples new offering, the iPhone5. Don’t get me wrong it would be successful considering Apple's huge following but it will definitely not be the best thing that they have ever made although they boldly proclaimed the iPhone 5 was the biggest thing to happen to the iPhone since the iPhone.

That proclamation sounded quite silly considering the fact that the improvement they were bringing to the iphone5 were things that we had already seen in other phones i.e. Android phones.

It seems like every day we hear new complaints about the iPhone5, something that was unheard off when it came to Apple. It just seemed like apple will never go wrong but it is becoming apparent that there is something going wrong with Apple looking at the current trend of releasing apps that are not ready for launch (maps) and having defects and scratches on the device.
I am hoping they haven’t let their recent success get into their heads, because if that is the case it will be very unfortunate. With competitors like Samsung and Nokia breathing down their necks in-terms of style and quality Apple better wake-up or they will be the next RIM (I have nothing against RIM I just wish them the best).
The way Apple handles their current problems will determine whether their new yet to be launched iPad mini, will take off well (personally I think it would, Apple has an ever growing loyal following ). Let’s wait and see what this tech giant will do.
