Raul,
You aren't weird, or at least you aren't the only. I can't count the number
of times that I am just holding my iPhone and admiring it, its thinness, the
design and all the wonderful things it allows me to do everyday. I guess I
have turned in to an iPhone fanboy lol

Hello Mark, I don't think you are unique. At least, I've read similar
opinions from others on the intertubes. I think that as has been pointed out
before, sometimes thinner and lighter can be perceived as not stirdy.
However if you also compare iPhone 3GS to iPhone 4S, you will see how the 4S
feels better even though the 3GS feels more solid. At least to me it does.
Regarding the iPhone 5, to me it does feel comfortable in the hand. If these
things keep getting thinner they will reach the thinness of paper and we
will need an adapter to plug the headphones into, LOL. Seriously though, odd
man out or not, opinions is what helps to drive innovation with companies as
new ideas and designs come out with new products. I'd rather not take a
chance in dropping my glass iPhone 4S, so I use TPU cases which still allow
it to look good with minimal protection. However I love taking it out of the
case and holding and caressing it. Yes, I'm probably weird, but I too love
the look and feel of my iPhone 4S.

Hi Phillip,
You know, I have heard so many people say that they used to drop their
glass
finished iPhones. In fact, the web is replete with such complaints from
all
over the world.
To date, I have yet to drop my glass finished iPhone.
I am clearly the odd-man out on this issue. (smile).
Oh well, it's nice to be unique (even bigger smile).
Mark

I'm sorry to say, that my opinion is exact and completely opposite yours.
Everything you said about the 4S, I didn't like. I am extremely happy with
the new iPhone 5's design. I dropped my 4S all the time, and I have yet
to
drop the five. I believe it's much lighter and much better design. It is
not
flimsy, but very sturdy. I'm sorry you felt differently.

Hello Everyone,
I was in my local A T & T Wireless Store assisting a friend in
upgrading her iPhone 4 to an iPHone 4 S. While we were waiting for a
representative, I took the opportunity to explore iPHone 5, again.
You know what? NO matter how much Apple tries to spin it, the iPHone
5 feels like a more cheaply made device than the 4 or the 4 S.
Say what you will but there is something special about that glass
finish that is lost with iPHone 5.
Perhaps most people keep their phones in a case so it matters little
to them but to me, what put iPHone a cut above the rest has been lost
with iPhone 5, in terms of tactile satisfaction.
Also, from a visual perspective, the aluminum, to my poor old eyes
anyway, lacks that special sparkling gleam that made me so glad I own an
iPhone.
For the first time in my wireless life, I am so happy I do not have
the "latest and greatest."
As is always the case, this is just my opinion so please be kind (Smile).
Making a Joyful Noise,
Mark
