The "Four Deadly Sins" of iPhone 5

In western Catholicism, "Seven Deadly Sins” are usually given as wrath, greed, sloth, pride, lust, envy, and gluttony. In the movie “Seven Deadly Sins" actor Morgan Freeman wonderful interpreted the Cardinal Sins to educate and instruct Christians concerning fallen humanity's tendency to sin. But here I will pay attention to iPhone 5. As we all know, iPhone 5 is a big evolution of the Apple iPhone series, thanks to its high-end configuration and nobility feeling, it is still a perfect model in most people’s minds. But now I aim at listing some fatal flaws of the iPhone 5 during this time but this has nothing to do with blasphemy.

First sin: the Apple Map
The most dissatisfactory point of a series of improvements Apple iPhone 5 has made is its upgraded iOS 6, which has abandoned the Google Maps and use their own home-design map. However, this is really awful and Apple Map’s coverage makes people crazy and may lead you into places where you do not want to go. Furthermore, the Apple Map looks difficult to understand.

                                           
However, the news would not have been so bad, Apple has modified the iOS 6 native Map Flyover 3D feature. Thanks to the joint efforts of consumers, Apple retail store employees, and the R & D team of Apple Map, and media test shows that the same operation on Google Maps and Apple Map, Apple saves 80% data traffic than Google Maps.

Second sin: Many mistakes of iOS 6
Although Apple claims that more than 200 new features have been added to iOS 6 operating system, many users reflect that when they upgraded system to iOS 6, App Store becomes unusually slow. Though Apple has redesigned iPhone's App Store, users found some VoiceOver related issues.
                                        
Third sin: Wi-Fi connection
A large number of users reflect that iOS 6 Wi -Fi problems exist and mainly visible on two aspects. One seems only for the iPhone 4S and iPad 3, after the iOS 6 upgrade they can not connect local Wi-Fi network. The second seems to be related with WPA2 AES. When users’ home wireless router encryption mode changed from WPA2 AES to WPA2 TKIP, their iOS devices (iPhone 4S) can no longer connect to WiFi, WiFi options on the equipment is gray, this problem seems to be still under resolution.
                                         
Fourth sin: easy to get Diaoqi and leave behind scratches
When the iPhone 5 is officially on sale, some of them are easy to Diaoqi especially the black models and aluminum body exposed, and what’s more, the back body is prone to getting visible scratches. Apple believes that the paint falling is a normal phenomenon, and recommends that users wear protective sleeve for the body.
                                                
However, iPhone 5 is not useless, people love iPhone 5 so much that they want it to perform perfect. In all fairness, there are a lot of improvements like best camera, thinner display and so on to enhance the user experience. It's absolutely the best iPhone to date, and it easily secures its place in the top tier of the smartphone universe.
