So please ensure the ETF is paid and account is closed with service provider. I have gone through the above process and I had to pay ETF of 265$ after using the phone for 8 months. ETF is calculated based on the term remaining on contract. The best option is to buy unlocked contract free iphone directly from amazon.com or apple.com. It will save you lot of headache later on. Just my 2 cents. | |

| ![]() I didn't bother to check if this link has been posted before (excuse my laziness) What if iWatch is actually a TV! Samsung was probably fooled into making 'gear' to compete against the "watch" from Apple. And iWatch for a TV is an interesting name. I wish apple is conjuring up a magic device that can pleasantly surprise the world! http://www.forbes.com/sites/benzinga...s-really-a-tv/ |

Senior - BHPian ![]() | ![]() Going against what I'm reading as comments on blog sites and elsewhere, i am going against the general opinion that Apple hasn't done anything significant or innovative this year. I'm not an expert or even a techie, but my instincts tell me that them launching the 64-bit OS, the M7 motion sensing processor and Touch ID have a lot to do with the future products and services Apple are currently working on. I can probably relate the need for 64-bit OS and the M7 processor to have something to do with the future planned wearable devices (watches, etc.) and any other products and services (NFC) Apple is planning. Surely Apple will be thinking much ahead when launching these this year (gives them a 1 year head start on free large scale user testing as well). And I'm no Apple fanboy, please (I own a Samsung S4).. Quote:

BHPian ![]() | ![]() I found this link summarizes the Apple offering better : http://www.internetevolution.com/aut...doc_id=267639& The 64 bit processor is killing feature for me ![]() |

| ![]() Have been trying iOS 7 Gold Master on my iPhone 4. Eye catchy icons and app transition effects. But makes iP4 bit sloppy and slow. Borrowed lot of tweaks from jailbreak community and added apple touch to them. With unlocking generally available without any hassle and tweaks of JB being lifted (or adopted, so to say) by Apple, I think JB is losing its sheen. |

| ![]() Whats this 64 bit OS hype about? To me, atleast for now, this has no advantage from user perspective. It might be useful when the memory demand increases later. |

| ![]() My sister wants to buy the I phone. She won't buy the 5c. I am getting the 5 in India for 42k. But read on the net that in USA 5s is available for 650 dollars ie approx 41k. These are unlocked phones available with AT & T or something like that. So what makes more sense? Will these unlocked phones work fine in India? And is it sensible or should rather just opt for the 5? |
