I am buying both the 5c and 5s. 

 

5s - I will be Gold.  I have had the black 4/4s and white 5. I decided I wanted to be different this time. I have a feeling though everyone else who is buying one will be buying the gold as well :P

 

5c - I will be getting the Green.

Well, this is the iPhone/iOS forum...

That doesn't mean we all want the 5s? You assume my response was a troll one, because my lack of details, i'll give you that :P But no... the 5s and 5c are just average if you ask me... IMO never buy into half cycles unless you have to  eg :

 

 

3G Buy

3Gs  no buy

4 Buy

4s No buy

5 Buy

5s No Buy

 

As pointed out on neowins editorial, this whole generation including the 5c, is just to force people to buy the 5s. So no, apple has lost a client until maybe the iPhone 6.

Ugh, you guys really want a gold iPhone? That's so gaudy to me. I don't mind the silver/white as much, but I'd probably still go with the black.

 

I really am doing it because its different. I have had both black and white in the past and just want something different. 

 

Who cares about color.  Seems everyone I know with an iPhone has a cover on it anyway.  Or any phone for that matter.  Color just seems like a non issue/preference to me.

 

I agree. I will be buying a case at the same time I get the phone so its not like you will see the color.. The only thing you can see will be the gold ring around the home button.

Well, when people often go to set their phones down, they're usually black. That's actually why I bought a white one, to be honest.

 

The gold looks pretty nice to me, but it just depends if you're the kind of person that can pull it off. (just like guys who can wear purple or pink, and not be looked at funny)

I wear purple, my Vikings jersey... that makes people look at me even more funny though. :laugh:

 

I mean, the gold isn't TERRIBLE, and it is different. It just kinda seems cheesy to me. I guess I'd have to see one in person to know how I really felt though.

Thanks I should have done that in the fist place!

 

As for color, I think it does matter because starting with the 5 myself and many others starting using the phone with no case at all. I'll probably go silver as the gold doesn't really do it for me.

I'm more an every-other-cycle upgrade guy myself. I got a 5 as soon as I was eligible, and 6 (it should be 6 anyway) should be ready when I'm next up.

 

If I were getting a 5S, I'd get the black. Why bother with a special color when I'm just gonna put a Lifeproof case on it anyway? And if I were to leave my service, I'd splurge on a non-contract iPhone and take it to MetroPCS.

I assume everyone in this forum at least has their eyes on the 5s. What color are you looking to get?

You would assume wrong, However, if it was the only phone in the world and i didn't have a choice i would go with the Gray one.

      But building your own.. what? You can't build anything like the Steam Machine yourself. Even trying to get close costs a good deal more. Even just the CPU cooler in their price comparison is as big as the entire Steam Machine. If you want a regular gaming PC, then by all means, build that. If you want a a small console-like PC for the living room that is good for gaming, I'm not sure what else is a better deal. In the GN review, they only mentioned a small form factor Dell, which is like twice the size and hundreds of dollars more expensive.

      Those are some popular multiplayer games. But hardly "all". Just those that don't work on Linux currently due to specific anti-cheat implementations. I think it's also fair to point out the literally thousands of games that don't work on the PS5. And it's not locked at 1080p. That's the default, which you can change.
    • Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates

      By zikalify · Posted

      Ubuntu Livepatch arrives on Arm64 to eliminate system reboots for kernel updates by Paul Hill Canonical has just announced that its Livepatch service now supports computers with Arm64 processors. For those who are not familiar, Livepatch allows users to apply important kernel updates without any service interruption or rebooting. While home users will benefit from this, it’s even more important for critical machines that absolutely should not be going offline at all. The feature is available as part of Ubuntu Core 26 for Arm64 and Ubuntu Core 20 and onwards for AMD64. According to Canonical, this will improve the security of systems that aren’t security-maintained daily or weekly, and it helps organizations work towards Cyber Resilience Act (CRA) compliance. If you are familiar with Ubuntu, you probably know that most packages can be updated without having to restart the system. There is one big exception to this, and that’s the kernel; it typically requires you to reload the system to boot into the new kernel. With Livepatch, Canonical has done something so that you don’t need to restart to begin using the new kernel. Aside from Ubuntu Core 26, users with Arm64 chips running Ubuntu 26.04 LTS can also use Livepatch. If you want to learn more about Livepatch, check out its product page. There, you can also find a button to join Ubuntu Pro (it’s free for several home devices) so that you can enable Livepatch. By linking your computer to Ubuntu Pro, you will also extend the life of your Ubuntu install from five years to ten years. If you are running Ubuntu, let us know in the comments if you have been looking forward to this feature on your ARM-based computer. If you’ve had a compatible AMD64 machine for a while and never used this feature, let us know why in the comments!
