Hello there all, I got my iPhone 5S last Saturday. For those who are looking to get a new iPhone, but can't afford the newest iPhones, Amazon has refurbished 5S's for somewhat decent prices. I got mine for $314. But if you don't mind used, it is even cheaper. The cool thing was, it came to me, already updated to IOS 9.0.2. All I had to do was update to iOS 9 .1 on it. Dictation and Siri works awesomely on it as well, just so you all know. And I have not seen any lag as of yet. So far, I have only installed the Facebook app, and I plan to install things like mango languages and other things that I use. So far, it works awesome. Yes, I know it's older, but I am grateful, and I know it should last me a good while. And I thought dictation would screw up this message like nuts, but it didn't. In fact, I think the mistakes in the message when I dictate are just me not enunciating my words properly. But I am slowly getting better at that, even though I had a speech problem when I was younger. Who knew that enunciating your words could make such a difference in your messages when you dictate. LOL. It's funny how I found this out, but my friend Angela from Canada told me that you have to enunciate your words and speak slower when you dictate things using Siri. And dictation in general. I'm glad she told me this, as boy… Was I horrible at enunciating my words. And I would have all my messages a mess. Thanks to her. LOL. So I thought I would pass this tip along, for those who are having trouble dictating with the newest iOS version and Siri. I know I have seen a lot of questions about this, so thought this would be helpful.
The warrantee on Amazon for the iPhone 5S wasn't the greatest, it was rated to stars out of five I believe. Or was it 3.5? I may have forgotten, but still. That is not a very good rating. So I figured why bother, when the phones are only about $300? It's just pointless. I try to look at things that are rated higher than 3.5 stars if I can help it. Anyways, I know this is a long message so I will end this for now. But I just wanted to let everyone know my experiences so far with this phone. As I haven't had one of these before. I have only owned an iPhone three GS, an iPhone 4S, and an iPhone 6 Plus. Hope everyone enjoys the rest of the evening, and their week. God bless all. Portia.
