*** The all new iPhone 4 thread - Keep all iPhone 4 stuff in here ***

[CGrieves]

Made the upgrade from the 3G to iPhone 4 and the speed difference is incredible. Websites load in a fraction of the time. And apps like Reeder complete their syncing far faster. The battery life is considerably better than the 3G too.

I loved my 3G but the better screen, speed and battery make it so much more satisfying to use.

100% agree- I'm in the same boat- 3G to 4. Just being able to touch a text input box and immediately begin to type is worth the investment!

I've also noticed the headphone output is hotter, and in a back-to-back with the 3G it has a much more focussed yet spacious-sound.

I've reset my 3G and boxed it up for my girlfriend. It's done very well indeed, still in A1 condition. After a week in her handbag it'll be knackered

can anyone please tell me how the quidco cashback works ? on 3, im a tad confused

Its all on the Quidco website.

It should tack on there soon and then they pay you the money into your bank account in 3 months. You just need to set that pat up.

I like many have saved over £100 in just the last few months through Quidco.

First register with quidco, i believe the first £5 you save goes to quidco and then after that you get all the cashback. Remember that you have to go through the quidco website to the three website to get the cashback, if you go straight to the three website you will not get your cashback. Also cashback isnt paid straight away it will take a couple of months.

Hope that helps

Edit: Also i rang three just now to confer delivery for tomorrow and they said it will be with me tomorrow so if you go with three you should get delivery in 2 days which isnt bad but they cant guarantee what time

Yeh tell me about it...stupid apple keeping me waiting like that

Just getting it activated now...god i feel like a little kid with a new toy...looks like my sim cutter tool did the job, screw paying tmobile £10 for a micro sim...phone is now activated and ready to go...just in the process of downloading the update then i shall be getting it set up.

 

[Yas786]

Finally all set up and have ordered my black bumper....2-4 weeks for shipping it says but it will tide me over till the element case vapor case can be ordered.

So far pretty decent iphone...looks nice and feels nice and im not suffering from the dreaded death grip but then at my home i get a full 5 bars of signal with Tmobile.

 

[GJ02]

holy **** them element cases are the dogs nuts !
do they cover the back ? or is it just a wrap around ?

 

[Niir]

they look like a metal bumper (very nice and suit the ip4s look) £50 its pretty steep but they do look like a quality product.

 

[Robbo]

Those Element cases do look nice, but £50? Have a day off.

Then again, people were daft enough to pay £25 for the bumper.

 

[Niir]

hey hey now they are getting a refund!!....hehe

tbh i would seriously consider one of those cases, even for £50 lol.

Like niir said its a aluminium bumper made out of machined cnc so looks the part...got myself down on the pre-order list so just waiting for them to sort it out ie when i can order...definitely getting one though...you can also have a carbon fiber backplate but that takes the price up to $99 i think.

 

[Niir]

you've just bought a bloody iphone, cost is clearly not a big issue with purchases

tbh i would be down as well if id forked out on an ip4

Tell that to Element cases, they can't make them fast enough at the moment.
