Anyone having random lag and app resets? I have an iphone 5s and for the past 2 days it's been hanging a lot when I change apps. For example I'll be using whatsapp, switch over to instagram and then instagram will not load and I have to remove it from the multitask list, wait a couple of minutes before I can use it again. Also my google apps; gmail, hangouts, youtube, etc will log me out and ask me to redo the whole setup process. This has happened twice already.

Still debating whether I should simply unlock my 4S via Rogers (spent too much money on Gevey SIMs already) and update to iOS7 or go for a 5s...

Wind I believe is AWS. So that GSM iPhone won't work on Wind/Mobilicity :/

Pretty sure, going by memory.

^ Thanks!

Thats whats confusing because on the Apple website the GSM model shows:
Model A1532 (GSM)*: UMTS/HSPA+/DC-HSDPA (850, 900, 1700/2100, 1900, 2100 MHz); GSM/EDGE (850, 900, 1800, 1900 MHz); LTE (Bands 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 8, 13, 17, 19, 20, 25)

Doesn't 1700/2100 = AWS?
And there is no "AWS" model on the Apple website.

(My cousin dont want to open up the pkg unless hes sure I can use it for Wind.)

I called 1-800-MY-APPLE to ask when's the last day I could return the iPhone as I thought it's 14 days. But the CS agent told me I actually have 30 days.

Can anyone verify?

This is all I can find on Apple's website:
Sales Policies - Apple Store (Canada)

got my gold iphone 5s! Not sure why some people complain about the battery. I had my off charger from 6:00am till now so that's around 16hours on battery and I still have 61% battery left. I turn push notification off, background apps refresh disable and change a few things here and there.
Maybe I change the way I use my phone but I have more power than my note2 it seems.... will do more testing.

I think the battery is great! I leave push notification & bluetooth on and my phone lasts more than 2 days. Whatsapp drains my battery the most.

As with any silicone cases, it picks up dust easily.




Does anyone have a nice, flip style case that also acts as a stand? Idc for card slots.

Have you noticed how many ads there are on Craigslist selling the Spigen case?
Safe to assume that these are knockoffs?

I can't find anyone local that carries the ultra hybrid.
