Last month Apple brought its latest edition of the ever popular iPhone and Apple also managed to sell over 5 million units in the first weekend which is another new record made by Apple and its iPhone. iPhone 5 came with a whole lot of new improvements starting from its larger screen, 4G LTE connectivity, and other usual updates.
Just like its entire predecessor, iPhone 5’s release also did not go unnoticed and the new owners of this amazing handsets were also able to find some issues with it. So, following are some of the biggest complaints we have heard about the new iPhone 5.
The new Maps App is a Fail
iPhone 5 came with the new iOS 6 and all the users who updated to this new OS version or got the iPhone 5 are facing this issue. Apparently, Apple replaced the Google Maps app previously used in the iOS with its own Maps app. Well, this new navigation app made by Apple is not what everyone had expected and it came with various issues. So, this is going to be most common iPhone problem reported in the recent days. The new maps app is unable to spell various cities correctly, while it also shows several other problems like being unable to locate local addresses and others.
iPhone 5’s Thickness and Weight
Apple is already advertising this new handset as the lightest iPhone ever but many new consumers are strangely complaining that the device is too light. Various users are complaining on twitter that the weight makes it unreal and feels more like a toy.
Updated Siri isn’t improved
iOS 6 brought some significant improvements to the voice assistant Siri, but it looks like the service has now become worse than ever. Siri has gotten dumber because it is confusing the names of different states and cities which is unacceptable for most of the users.
Battery Life issues
Just like all its predecessors, iPhone 5 also brings various complaints from a lot of users about the rapid draining of the battery. Several users have reported that the battery life of the iPhone 5 is very less than they expected. We don’t why that is happening there might be some new app in the iOS 6 that drains the battery or any other glitch but Apple needs to fix this issue immediately.
Back gets scratched very easily
Last but not the least, as we all know that Apple takes very special measures while designing its new devices and the designs are usually state of the art. iPhone 5 comes with aluminum backing but according to several reports from the new users, this back cover get scratched very easily. This one of the iPhone problems that cannot be overseen because it takes away the amazing looks of the device which is one of its main features.
