You're probably missing how it was made by indentured slaves who live in cells at the factory. You can read all about it here while sipping your frappucino in starbucks

Whereas all other phones and gadgets are made by free range slaves living culturally fulfilling lives in the sunshine?

looks like I might have got a dodgy one then, which is a shame as I was really looking forward to this phone
safari was regularly locking up when browsing fb, other apps still worked fine, but once safari had locked it wouldn't work on other sites too
the touch screen seemed to be ok when playing games etc, but for some reason when I was web browsing or looking at youtube it wasn't responsive, I was having to tap the screen 3 or 4 times for it to do anythingPosted 3 months ago # -
@grahams oh I guess that makes it ok then

You shoul be using the Facebook app, not safari for FB, I have never had safari crash on my 4s or iPad, you must have a suspect phone.
I know what you mean about the size of the screen, ive had a desire for 2 years, so it's taken a while to get used to tescreen but I like it now, the build quality is way above Samsung, the iPod function is the best of any smartphone, the camera is superb, the iCloud is brilliant especially if you have other iOS devices.
Stick with it I would say.

Book an appointment at a Genius Bar. They'll likely replace it on the spot and possibly give you free schwag for your trouble (depending on how much you complain).

Well no, of course it doesn't, but it is a little disingenuous to say "Oh iPhones are made in big factories in China" while studiously ignoring the fact that most gadgets are made in very similar factories and actually quite a large portion of your belongings are probably made in much worse conditions.

If Jools has the iPhone on contract, wouldn't it be better to go to the provider?

Yep true, typical trolling, just contributing negativity

In my experience (with O2) they tell you they can send it to Apple for assessment which will take 3 weeks, or you can pop next door to the Apple store and get it replaced on the spot for free.

"If Jools has the iPhone on contract, wouldn't it be better to go to the provider? "
could do but my experiance of genius bar is they will either sort it FOC or replace it FOC if its inside warrenty.

That's one of beauties of having an iPhone you can deal with the company pretty much direct by going to an Apple store. They will usually sort you there and then with a replacement or if not something until they can get you sorted. There's not many HTC or Samsung stores, in fact I can't think of any so you have to use the provider. If your lucky and the provider has a store then they may help you though.

Remember to back it up in iTunes before you take it in, so you can restore everything to the new one.

Apple will know when the phone was sold

My iphone 4s packed up after only 3 weeks, the speaker volume stopped working after using headphones to listen to music?
They seemed to know what the problem was and mentioned over the phone, I was not the first to have this fault?
Anyway, Apple sorted me out with a replacment sharpish mind & tbh, I am loving the quality of the built in camera over the 3gs I used to have.
They also mentioned Siri for the UK was maybe only months* away?
*Does anyone know more?

Sorry should have made that clearer, Siri is not fully compatible over here in the UK yet.

It's stuck in an infinite loop, I suspect I've created a black hole or found away to create the boson particle cheap.

Thats probably the reason why Siri does not work in the UK
