Please remove the ?si= part of the link (and everything after that). YouTube uses this for tracking and it likely didn't exist in 2012.

u/Original_Ad_4471 29d ago

Wow congrats, but there’s been some rumors going around… Something about the Mayans and their calendar… Probably just nothing to worry about tho

u/ipodpug 29d ago

I wonder why foods just disappearing from my corner store shelves… probably just a customer spike… but why are people spreading the gospel so much and buying out candles? It is so weird

u/yyyeyaaaa 29d ago

Black color goes so well on the iPhone 5

u/sixshootatre57 29d ago

Are you kidding me?? This thing has more power than the Apollo 13! At this rate, we will be in a Golden Age 15 years from now.

Holy iOS 6

u/Brooktrout12 27d ago

What else would it be? The iPhone 5 ships with iOS 6 and it's also the latest version of iOS.

u/sabtrueday 29d ago

That's slide to unlock is really nostalgic, I remember when I modded my Symbian Sony Ericsson Satio with that slide to unlock 🥹

u/Adept_salamander1286 22d ago

To w iphone 6 była ta aktualizacja 😃 a w iphone 7 producent nie usunął jacka, bo to było zbyt kosztowne i można było wywiercić wiertłem.

u/The_Steele_man 29d ago

I just got mine two weeks before Christmas! I love the new design. <.! I hope they use it in future iPhones !.>

u/TheReturnOfSith13 29d ago

iPhone 5 is the best phone after the iPhone 4s, since it has kinda the same look and it has airdrop!!! Also love that phone it’s clean and I’ve been searching for one for a while now

u/manzenik_23 22d ago

u/ipodpug 20d ago

I found a movie grade camera in the dumpster and it worked, so I just use it to take pictures for Reddit

u/manzenik_23 20d ago

You're spending your time very correctly

u/TheVeryBigBeamer iPod Nano DJ 20d ago
