It’s Here: What Do You Think of the iPhone 5?

The latest iPhone was released in Apple and retailer stores this morning.

For the past 10 days since Apple announced its new iPhone 5, people have been clamoring for the latest new gadget from the tech giant.

Today, the wait is over.

Those who had been waiting in line at Apple stores a week ago were finally able to walk through the doors around 8 a.m. and exit as proud iPhone 5 owners. They were finally able to test the iPhone 5, the latest iPhone that so many tech reporters and bloggers had been writing about.

The sleek smart phone boasts many new features including a 4-inch screen, 20 percent lighter and many more features not available on the iPhone 4s, the most current iPhone model.

However, those who pre-ordered the phone may have to wait longer than the expected delivery date, reported CNET. Verizon has pushed delivery dates back to Sept. 28, while AT&T has said iPhone orders will be shipped in 14 to 21 business days.
