What charging/data cable are people buying?

I need spares for work and home but all seem to have bad reviews

Anyone

Ha I was going to ask that this morning!
I Need a few cables as I like to keep one in the car, a couple at home and one in the office.

Anyone? Anyone? .......Bueller? Bueller?

The above isn't a trick question btw!
Or is iMackMart and myself over-complicating the lead compatibility issue or non-issue?

I usually buy all my leads from high rated Ebay sellers and have never had an issue in the past with leads for various things.

I have bought PQI ones and they are great - managed to nab a few for £7.99 with barclays bespoke offers! Im sure they are easily found elsewhere

I seem to be getting more and more force closures. Getting a bit annoying now

Not had any problems with mine so far.
Keep finding new features, I'm really liking the neat swipe-up quick access panel thingy

I get almost daily crashes to the apple logo, anyone else?

Same, on both my iPad Air and 5s.

Even had one first thing this morning when I turned off my alarm!

Hope these are at least reduced, come 7.1

Are you on iOS 7.0.4? I have been ignoring the update for the time being.
So I'm still on the previous version & have honestly had no issues at all since getting mine last Saturday.

Is anyone here using an iPhone 5C? I've got one arriving on Monday. Interested to see how they compare against an S4. I imagine the S4 is miles better?

Yes me,
Had it a week now ,I'm Very happy with it

 

[aayzof]

I've had mine for a few weeks and absolutely love it. The last time I used an iPhone was when I got one on release back in 2008. Coming from a Blackberry, I couldn't be happier. I handled both the 5C and 5S in the shop and was very surprised to find that I preferred the plastic 5C - camera is great and it's so fast compated to previous HTC Android phones I've used over the years. The finish on the 5C is amazing - it feels so well built; I think it's to do with the lacquer they put on the plastic.

 

[chris4652009]

What cases are you lot using? I want something to protect my 5c what do you recommend? must have a screen guard built in.

Have heard good things about the "motterbox"?


cheers.

Been given a £30 per month budget at work to get a mobile phone, any deal about that would get me a 5c or perhaps a 5s on that?

Thanks

hmmmm I don't think so, unless you pay quiet a bit for the handset upfront.

...So I bought three of these.
I get the "this is not compatible........." message with each one.
NONE OF THEM CHARGE MY PHONE
