Calling for help off all you iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c owners.
I really need your help in my dilemma at being near my time to upgrade to the next iPhone.
My History :
I have used various iPhones and my current handset is the iPhone 5 16gb Black-Slate, which I've been using for nearly a year on the o2 Network, and now am very interested in upgrading to one of the new iPhones.
What I'm asking from all you early adopters of the iPhone 5s and iPhone 5c, is to please give me an honest, real life user review of how you are finding your new iPhone.
Your Reviews on ;
- What is the battery life like for you, and how does it handle iOS7.
- Is the iPhone 5s really snappier than the iPhone 5 ,with its new a7 chip.
- How does the iPhone 5c handle. is it sturdy with the plastic shell.
- Is the Camera and its functions better.
- In true life what is the Touch ID like. Is it hit and miss or accurate.
- What is 4G like on the new iPhone.
- What colour and capacity did you opt for and why.
- What handset did you upgrade from and how does your new handset compare.
As I'm going to be using the iPhone on the o2 Network I need you guys and gals to tell me how it really is.
Really looking forward to your frank and honest reviews.
Thank you in advance.
Lee.

I'm using a Griffin case lined with a black-silk sewn pattern. Its gorgeous but pretty impractical to be honest.
Is the decal wrap the plastic film that you can apply? My friend used that but it gathered dirt very quickly, although he applied it half-heartedly :D.
What's everyone's favourite case material? Plastic? Metal? Rubber? All have their strengths
I'm looking at wooden ones at the moment. Unconventional I know....
By the way, there are some awesome reviews on here so far guys, look forward to seeing many more 
I have this one, but to be honest prefer the phone with NOTHING on - it just doesn't feel the same

I agree but after dropping my iPhone 4S on a warehouse floor chipping the corner, I dare not go without a case anymore.
There is always the risk yeah, alas even with a case on you could drop it on something raised and smash the screen.
There are a lot of minimalistic cases these days which does help keep close to the natural feel - I am stil undecided if I am going to go caseless, changes daily
Well I paid a trip to my local Apple Store and it seems stock on most colours and capacities are still limited.
Non contract units even more limited.
😞
Patience certainly is a virtue

What time did you go?
I have found with every previous iPhone launch, if you go early on a morning you are almost guaranteed a device as they receive stock every day.
It was in the afternoon.
I work Mon to Sat 😞
Sunday I'll go check again.
It seems it's the unlocked versions that are thin on the ground.
I asked a specialist in the apple shop but they are a bit cagey on giving out in store stocking levels.

From what I remember you need to go early morning on any day EXCEPT a Sunday 😞
I think they get stock on a Sunday, but only late on when the store is closed ready to sell on the Monday.
Yeah they will never give out stock levels, as they have been stung in the past where reporters/competitors have gone in to get stock levels.
