I' tried to make it short and sweet. This phone has been a pain since day one (November 2012) and has never operated as expected. The SIM card was replaced in December which made the device operate at a pace more closely related to other smart devices. Recently, my service was either very low, like 1 bar, or read "no service" on the phone. I reset it manually, through icloud, synched with my laptop, updated via wifi and all other tricks and advice given to me by both the carrier and manufacturer. Still, this thing is a pile of crap. It works, but no better than a sour blackberry.
The solution Apple came up with is to warranty the phone. Okay, how does that work? One option is to pay $29.95 for them to express ship a new phone to me AND put a hold on my credit card for the market value of the new phone until the old phone is returned. Option two is to ship my phone to them, and they will send me a new one. In the meantime, I'd be left without a phone that I use for both business and personal use. I don't like either option and am not happy with my 2-year agreement.
I should have went with the Samsung SIII
