Phone Upgrade - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

Salty Dog · 12-13-2012, 03:46 PM

Just jumped from the iPhone OG to the iPhone 5 with the lifeproof case last week.
LTE is stinking fast! I can't tell the difference between it and my cable internet.
Putting it through the torture test right now.The new phone has not crashed or hung up at all.
Got about 8 hours of really heavy internet and app testing in on one full charge.
No lag time navigating through Navionics or any of my maps apps.
Rendering in art and photo apps are instantaneous fast
GPS works pretty good. It marks about 5-10' away from me everytime
Works ok so far.

My iPhone OG lasted 5 years. Still works fine. The battery is a little weak but it can still make it through a whole day of normal use.
It's been through hell without using any cases to protect it. Construction sights, backpacking, skating, and kayaking (with an Alok sac) hasn't done much to it except for a few scratches.
Hope I get the new phone to last that long.
