Got mine last night, haven't had much time to play around with it yet.

I've read online that the battery charge issue seems to get better after a few full cycles, but I haven't really used it enough to tell.

I'm trying to get through three or four power cycles as quickly as possible. The battery is dropping in standby mode. :?

Can you toggle 4G on/off? I can on my Galaxy Nexus and it really helps with the battery life. Do a quick search to see how to do it.


Already tried all of those power saving measures. Now I'm turning every thing to 11 so I can power cycle faster. I think these batteries are a little petulant for the first couple of days.

My battery is wearing out a little faster than with my 4 so far, but nothing major.

LTE speeds are crazy fast.

I've always wondered, can you bring an iPhone you bought at Wal-Mart to an Apple store for normal service? Of course, right?

Of course. For whatever reason, walmart didn't make me sign a new contract. They gave me two iphone 5's for $127 each. When I brought them to the at&t store, they saw the transaction on their computer, and the girl helping me called all the other workers over so they could marvel and laugh before saying walmart made a mistake. It felt awesome to screw the phone company over in a small way for a change.
