Is it true that the white iPhone breaks faster than the black?

Curious , I want the white one , but then I'm hearing then the black doesn't break as easy .

I don't think anyone can say for sure... there are slight differences in how they manufacture the glass for the white color vs black... but in my opinion there is NO difference onhow easily they'd break.
There are also some great warranty's that cover damage and even liquid spills and full immersion you could purchase for pretty cheap that can ease your mind...
Apple Care Plus is one
Square Trade is another

  • Is the white iPhone 4S thicker than the black iPhone 4S

    Dont tell me the iPhone 4 white and black were the same size, cause it isnt, i dont need a micrometre to measure, a case that fit on my black iphone 4 does not fit on my white iphone. apple said the iphone 4 black/white were the same colour. they are also saying this about the iphone 4S. what do you guys know about this.

    How could anyone here answer that since none of us have received any iPhone 4S yet, let alone both a white and black to compare.  We are just users such as yourself.  Apple doesn't reveal any inside info to us (except on if I tell you, I'll have to kill you basis - and they mean it).

  • Is the Gig version really faster than the 100m version !?

    I just upgraded my 100 meg AEBS to the new Gig version, and ran a quick n easy benchmark, an rsync -e ssh on a 150 meg file. The server is an iMac connected via gig-e, and the Macbook c2d is connected via 802.11n (reporting a consistant 300 mbps in network utility - about 20 feet from the router, going through 2-4 sheets of drywall). The tests were conducted in my Chicago apartment, with at least 10 detectable 2.4gHz networks, and no 5.8gHz networks that I know of.
    The 802.11n 5.8gHz no backwards compatibility was by far the fastest. The fastest test I ran was 11 MBps on the copy, with 802.11a compatibility I believe was around 8, and 2.4ghz + 802.11g compatibility was around 6. I repeated all tests a few times, the results were pretty consistant.
    These results suprised me, as I was really hoping for a bit faster. I could get 40 MBps on my Linux file server over gig-e to the iMac in previous tests. Unfortunately that machine is down until I get some replacement parts, so I couldn't use it to test the new AEBS. But I seem to remember getting 11 or 12 MBps with the Linux file server over the old AEBS with 100m and 5.8gHz no backwards compatiblity.
    So how much of the performance non-difference is due to the iMac vs Linux file server, or the Gig-E version being no faster than the 100 meg version remains to be seen. I'm curious if anyone else has done tests.
    If the router, or this 802.11n implementation is the bottleneck - folks may not want to waste their money upgrading, unless they really want that 4 port (in bridge mode) gig-e switch on the back.
    Rob

    That is somewhat counterintuitive, as the 802.11n connection speed is reportedly 300 mbps. I understand the implications of protocol overhead, but 70% overhead seems a bit excessive. I guess I'm curious if the bottleneck is:
    - in the router backplane
    - in the 802.11n protocol
    - in apples implementation of 802.11(draft)n
    Also - anyone else have actual benchmark data to share?
    regards

  • Why is the unlocked iPhone more expensive than the iPad?

    I am using an old iPhone 3G on a prepaid network.  Love it.  Getting long in the tooth -- time to upgrade.  $650?!  The iPad is only $499 and way cooler (minus the phone part).  What gives, Apple?

    I am asking myself the exact same question as @keithfromclarkson. Why is the iPhone so darn expensive. My only reason, is because Apple can. People are buying it like hotcakes. But it still bugs me, cost of production of iPhone is significantly less than that for iPad consider the following:
    (All are 16GB models)
                        Retail cost    Cost of BOM + Manufacturing
    iPhone          $649             $207
    iPad 3           $599             $306.15
    iPad 3 4G      $629             $358.30

  • Does the .rep report  run faster than the same program in .rdf format

    Hello,
         We have some reports timing out because they take too
    long to bring back results. If we used the .rep file instead of
    the .rdf file, will the reports run faster? Does it take very
    long to compile or is it most likely the SQL needs to be tuned
    for better performance?
    Thanks in Advance..
    Pmoore31

    No, the report will not run faster. It is most likely that you
    need to fine tune the SQL.

  • The 15-inch unibody is faster than the 17-inch unibody flagship?

    Macworld benchmarks has the 15 edging out the 17.
    And that is Before yesterday's speedbump for the 15.
    http://www.macworld.com/article/139139/2009/03/unibody17_inch_macbookpro.html
    When they remeasure, will the 15 be substantially faster than the 17-inch flagship?

    Historically, the 17-inch has been faster and better in many ways.
    I'm sorry, but this is simply incorrect. I will present for you the following specifications from every MBP revision. All specifications represent the high-end 15" and stock 17" of the time which are the two models we are comparing here.
    MacBook Pro (Early 2006, Original Revision)
    15.4"/2.16 Ghz (CTO)/1 GB RAM/100GB/256 MB VRAM/$2499
    17"/2.16 Ghz/1 GB RAM/120 GB HD/256 MB VRAM/$2799
    Macbook Pro (Late 2006)
    15.4"/2.33 GHz/2 GB RAM/120 GB HD/256 MB VRAM/$2499
    17"/2.33 GHz/2 GB RAM/160 GB HD/256 MB VRAM/$2799
    Macbook Pro (Mid 2007)
    15.4"/2.4 GHz/2 GB RAM/160 GB HD/256 MB VRAM/$2499
    17"/2.4 GHz/2 GB RAM/160 GB HD/256 MB VRAM/$2799
    Macbook Pro (Early 2008)
    15.4"/2.5 GHz/6 MB L2/2 GB RAM/250 GB HD/512 MB VRAM/$2499
    17"/2.5 GHz/6 MB L2/2 GB RAM/250 GB HD/512 MB VRAM/$2799
    I think it is pretty evident that in terms of clockspeed, RAM, and VRAM the 15" and 17" have never been too far apart. I don't think 20-40GB of HD space is all that big a deal. Yes, the 17" has had an extra USB/FW port. I don't know if these things qualify as "faster and better in many ways" though. Really, the most significant way that the 17" was "better" was the screen size and resolution as has already been mentioned. Things are no different now than they've been for the last three years. I don't know what they were like in the PPC days because I don't have time to look back that far, but I don't think it matters.
    In fact it's slower, and will seem even slower with the 15's speed bump.
    It's not slow at all. In fact, it's one of the fastest notebooks that you can buy at all right now. We have already pointed out that you shouldn't take the benchmarks seriously because they have absolutely no statistical significance.
    These things are not going to change. If you need the notebook now, you should buy it. If you don't need it, then wait. If you don't want it, then buy something else.

  • Has anyone else noticed that colors are washed out on screen on the white iPhone?

    Comparing the white and black iPhone 4 side by side, I noticed that colors on the screen are washed out on the white iPhone. This is clearly noticable when clicking on messages and looking at the top where the word messages appears in blue/gray color. When looking at this on the white iPhone, its more white than blue/gray.

    It could be just the contrast in color with your eyes looking at the white iphone vs the black one. Your eyes can sometimes play tricks on you. But in all seriousness, iPhone screens vary in color temperatures. I have seen two black iphones 4s that looked like they had different displays in them.

  • I have a white iphone 4S - even with the case off, im noticing my pictures in low-light places still have the smokey finish; can it be that its the white outer shell?

    i have a white iphone 4S - even with the case off, im noticing my pictures in low-light places still have the smokey finish; can it be that its the white outer shell? PLEASE HELP!

    Anyone have any suggestions? or is everyone else just as clueless as me !

  • Hi, I have the black iPhone 4S but now I want the white iPhone 4S. They're the same price so I was hoping maybe I could switch my black one to the white one for little or no charge. Is that possible? Thanks so much.

    Hi I want to know if I can switch my black iPhone to the white iPhone for little or no charge.  Please respond, thank you.

  • Does the Mophie juice pack plus work on the white iPhone?

    My buddie said he tried to use one and the white iPhone was too thick. He isn't the sharpest tool in the shed so I thought I would see what others had to say.

    I don't know if mophie juice pack work on 5c, but I have a RavPower 14000mAh and it works on my 5c. Think it's a smart choice as it can charge 2 of my devices at the same time. I feel that the speed is even faster than I plugged into the wall. You may get it from amazon if you'd like.

  • I have a white iPhone 4 16gb and the home button doesn't sit flush with my screen, it feels like it has sunk down a little. Warranty expires June 2012 so it is under warranty, Would i be illegible for a replacement? Thanks

    No way really for anyone here to give you an answer to that question.  You would need to either send it to Apple for evaluation, or take it into the genius bar at a nearby Apple Store and ask them about it.  Only an Apple employee could make the call, and they would need to see and handle it to decide.

  • Lacking information about white iPhone 3G upgrades in the UK

    In the UK, O2 does not publish any information about the white iPhone on its website. Why ??? when will the white iPhone be available as an upgrade at O2 stores ? calling O2, CPW, and Apple brings conflicting information and no clear availability. This is appalling customer service from O2 and Apple. They should be ashamed!
    Has anyone been lucky enough to get a clear, concise, definitive answer from Apple and/or O2?

    Hello all - because posts are being deleted from apple discussions, and there are other sites with similar queries all over the place a blog has been set to collect any info going around about availability of white iPhones to us LOYAL, up-graders.
    Time to stop the usual CS emails: "I'm sorry we're unable to tell you the availability date of the iPhone 3G in white version."
    Is that: unable - I have no mouth; unable - I haven't got a clue; unable - they won't let me tell you?

  • Is it true that Pages cannot insert a page into the middle of a document?

    Is it true that Pages cannot insert a page into the middle of a document?
    I have tried this many times using different techniques and it just refuses to do it. Can anyone help?

    To see how Pages works:
    Menu > View > Page Thumbnails
    When you click on the thumbnails each Section is outlined in yellow.
    Click where you want a new page > Menu > Insert > Section Break
    But then to have a new page all you need to do is add content to fill the page or Insert > Page Break to force the insertion point over onto a new page.

  • Will the white iPhone 4S be thicker than the black iPhone 4S?

    As everyone knows, the white iPhone 4 is 0.2 mm thicker than the black iPhone 4. So my question is, will this be the same with the 4S? I asked apple employees on the website chat and they not only said that the white iPhone 4S will not be thicker but they also denied that the white iPhone 4 is thicker - when it is a fact that it is. A ruler will prove this.
    Does anyone know?
    Thanks

    Everyone may know that. It doesn't change the fact that it is false. http://content.usatoday.com/communities/technologylive/post/2011/05/consumer-rep orts-white-iphone-same-thickness-as-black-one/1
