Hi @Traceyjs1975,

 

 

Now the set up is complete {many apps/music/photoes to download etc}

 

As we all know the size of both iPhones are the same so its whats under the iPhone 5s hood that compelled me to upgrade.

 

Wanting 4G played a massive part in my decision also.

 

I can certainly see the difference between the iPhone 5 A6 Chip to the iPhone 5s A7 {64-bit} chipset. It is way-way more snappier.

 

Hopefully the larger battery capacity will proivide a bit more usage time too.

 

It's early days for the touch i.d sensor but to press no issues at all.

 

Very pleased.

Bearing in mind I used the iPhone 5 from taking it off charge at 6am and then using it very heavily for Surfing, YouTube, IMBD trailers, Twitter and and the usual texting and calls I usually had to put it on charge in my dinner hour at 2pm, which was normally at around 30%.

I use the 5s a lot as still new to me, for gaming, watching trailers, facebook, emails, o2 community, youtube, taking lots of pictures and videos, whatsapp, ebay, snapchat, skype and asda online shopping, my wifi is always on, and the battery lasts good 2, 2 and a half days. read somewhere to charge it only when the battery shows 20% left so been doing that for the last 3 weeks and battery is good

Update :

 

 

 

Tariff changed from 3G Pay as you go go go to 4G Pay as you go go go and all is working on the O2's faster internet now.

 

Whats really nice is that even tho my tariff change does not take official effect until my next anniversary date {31/12/13} O2 have already allowed me to use 4G and advised of so by e mail and text. Now thats service  slight_smile

 

And............... Blimey its fast !

 

@adriannadavey how are you finding the 4G speeds ?
