I’ve always wanted to like Apple Maps, but I have found it hard to especially since I live in Sweden. But recently Apple have started to give more official support for Sweden, so I’m slowly transitioning to it now!
I use Apple Maps daily for navigation and I gotta say I love it. The 3D maps looks beautiful. Sometimes I just go to a city and explore it using the maps app on my MacBook. And it does a great job with the interface, super easy to read the directions when driving and it gives intuitive voice directions. All that said, in terms of raw information, Google Maps will always be king, so I still have the app on my phone.
I always heard the jokes but I’ve literally never had a single issue with Apple Maps. Of course I can understand in a place like Australia it could be hard. I think the iOS developers, who are probably American didn’t think about places like Australia having different suburbs lol.
@@EroticWhale It's not even bad in Australia. I'm in a semi-urban, not particularly big town, and all of our streets are fully mapped out. It's the same for basically every town down the highway.

John 3:16-21 16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God. Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus
7:44 "If you live in a tiny little city like Adelaide" As a resident of a city 11 times smaller than Adelaide (Columbia, MO, USA), this made me audibly laugh. I remember a friend's mom using Apple Maps to get to my house back around 2015 and it took her to an abandoned building in an industrial park.
I had a 5C as well!!! absolutely LOVED that phone to death and ironically in green like the one Dank shown. It was a very short time with that phone before upgrading it but I loved it.
yeah! my experience exactly, I remember just fucking yeeting this thing with my friends in high school, thing never broke ps this was back in 2018-19 , I had this thing for a while
I remember as a kid, if you were one of the lucky few that actually owned a smartphone AND could afford the iPhone 5 with Siri, you were basically a celebrity during lunch break. We would spend the whole time telling Siri poop jokes and asking dumb questions.
My 5c back in the day was an absolute beast I’m a farm kid, it’s been run over by multiple cars, and a tractor, and was left in a super wet, muddy field for a whole week and it worked just fine. Screen didn’t even crack.
I was in an Apple Store today and overheard an older lady presenting a green iPhone 5C to a Genius Bar employee and asking why the Mail app stopped working (something about it not working due to her iOS version being too old). So this is an absolutely wild coincidence.
it actually does just some mail providers require some additional set up to make it work (I can use GMail on my iPhone 4 running iOS 6 just fine, I just needed to generate an app-specific password for it)
I worked in the electronics department at target when this came out. Everyone thought it was a joke and nobody used the one that we had on display. It was great.
I work IT. We had several of these floating around several. They were tanks. The people when we upgraded them were raging against the machine. They did not want to give them up.
I worked at walmart when this came out and when parents came in to buy their kids an ipod touch i would instead sell them a prepaid iphone 5c for like $129. It was cheaper than the latest ipod touch and i told parents to just buy it and dont activate it. That way it's the same thing as an ipod since the phone part didn't work
When you got the dingus pod i decided to go out and get one myself and i still use it to this day, definitely underrated, but with end of support its time is limited. I will also mention that at 1000 battery cycles it’s basically done its job but its still going!
I was in high school at the time and these were absolutely everywhere. People loved the color options compared to the “bland” 5S. Meanwhile, I got a 5S and loved it. I still think the 5S has one of the best designs of an iPhone to this day.
@@ashmakes21 Well when I first entered middle school in fall 2007 (6th grade), the iPhone had just come out the summer before. We all had flip phones. Good times. Until you accidentally tried to use the internet and got smacked to a stupidly expensive $200+ monthly bill, lol.
I _loved_ my green 5C. It was the first smartphone I bought after leaving Japan and I loved it. The only reason I upgraded was because they stopped dropping security patches for it. SOME OF US HAVE SMALL HANDS OKAY
I had a 5s up until about 6 months after the 11 released. Finally all the software updates caught up with the little g. I think it was around the same time Apple were exposed for purposely bricking old phones with updates.
12 or 13 mini. even tho battery on the 12 mini is quite bad, i'd personally still go for it and use it as a secondary phone lmao ONLY BECAUSE OF THAT STUNNING STUNNING PURPLE
My grandfather had this phone last year (he just switched to a 7). We knew this as “Grandpa’s phone” because it was such a bright, green phone. I kind of miss it.
My dad had this exact phone in that exact color and then handed it down to me as a present for graduating middle school. I still even have it on me even though I don’t use it anymore, but just to use as a prop for making skits on TikTok. And I can agree with EVERYTHING you mentioned about it in this video, it perfectly summarizes my experience of nothing but complaints and aggravation for it’s horrible quality and condition.
I had a Space Gray iPhone 5S and I remember I always had my eye on the blue 5C. I really loved the blue on it. I was very tempted on exchanging it, but the 5S was truly Apple's best in terms of design which made me fall in love with it. I did end up getting a Blue iPhone XR when it came out. Even though the XS was obviously the better phone, I couldn't pass up on the blue this time. I always had a clear case on it.
The 5C was severely underrated. Loved how it felt in the hand (that plastic!), a fantastic utility device, and that little boarder of color around the black glass is a nice little touch. It was the only phone I felt like no case was the premier way to use it.
I purposefully purchased an iPhone SE 1 because it was the last of that iconic initial iPhone design generation. It’s such a beautiful piece, and honestly I’m glad they brought the flag edges back in recent versions. I just wish they would flatten the camera bump.
Still using mine as my phone. I will have no problem switching when apple screws it up with no usable apps in itunes, but it serves me fine for now. I use an older Pixel for photos.
The iPhone, starting from the 4, is a staggering piece of modern industrial design and one of the most influential devices of our current tech age. Apart from HTC for a few years, nobody has come close.
In 2019 I bought myself a 64 Gig iPhone SE which I loved, sadly it was stolen at school when I was in PE. A couple years later I bought one just to have it because I love it’s design so much.
@@Terminal_Apotos I never had an HTC One when I was in school, but the M8 was so striking that I bought one last year just to keep it. I even played around with LineageOS on it.
I really wanted the iPhone 5C back when it was announced. It was such a nice phone, because of the fact, that it had multiple color options like Green, Blue, Yellow etc. but I was too little and also too broke to own a iPhone at the time. Now I have a XS as a main, but will switch to the 13 or the 14 at the end of this year or at the beginning of 2024. But the 5C will still remain iconic to me.
Another possible issue with the IPhone 5C was that the color of these plastic phones (especially the red ones) would sometimes fade over time, just from being exposed to the sun! This is a big oversight due to the fact that people brought these everywhere! It also brings the topic back to those strange phone cases. I knew someone who used their phone, with the case on, all the time under fluorescent lighting and probably on a car dashboard, and later removed the case and ended up with pink dots on their red phone! To be honest, it looked kind of cool, and almost intentional!
@@copyer9088 You’re actually right. The confusion was that Apple made a salmon or coral like tone somewhere in between red and pink. However, they called it pink, not red. The dots left on the phone by the U.V. Shining through the case were slightly brighter: closer to the color of bubblegum.
The 5c should become the centre of a "dank shorts" set where everything is smaller. It goes with the Shrek Green iPad beautifully, they are like lost cousins
I had the green 5C from 2013-2016 and I honestly loved it lol. Never gave me any problems that previous iPhone's gave me. I was actually really sad to give it up in order to upgrade after the 3 solid years it gave me. Fond memories.
I had an iPhone 5c in blue. It was my 1st iPhone. Even my mother had one in yellow. I had it a little bit over 3 years. I got it on my birthday in late July 2014. Even the SE(2) is plastic. As I still have it as a backup.
The 5C was my first smartphone, and it’ll hold a special place in my heart. I wish it had lasted longer but I dropped it and had to replace it with a 7. Now on a 12 Pro and it’s crazy to think I actually used that damn thing for so long lol
Still got my 5C as an extra alarm phone, works flawlessly, original battery and all. It was bulletproof, never used a case and it might be in better shape than the 7 which was always in cases. Loved the color & material as well. When there were rumors that they might bring back a plastic phone recently I was actually thinking about finally upgrading the 7.
this is so funny cause i use it as my alarm phone too. he was talking price but carriers (at least in the US) had these SUPER discounted. got mine for 50 bucks.
I used to have the 5c in white and It was a great experience overall I had the Apple interface available at the time for a reasonable cost and being in middle school at the time the color concept was cool. My peers were all having either the 6 or 5c
7:31 infrarred was so terrible you literally had to have the phone's infrarred ports kissing each other otherwise they'll lose connection, I do remember when I had my first phone, all the older people told me to keep both phones stuck togheter while using bluetooth, even though that was unneccesary, but when I learned about infrarred I realized they were just conditioned by it and were paranoid that even by the time reliable BT connection may fail if the phones were 1 cm apart, crazy times.
I still remember the infrared link system on Gameboys. It was so bad that many people didn't even know it existed, and wouldn't work if there was a mote of dust within 30 kilometers. even with the sensors pressed up against each other.
i actually really miss the 5C. I was in elementary school when it came out and it was huge solely because of the colors. I really wish apple could go back to this instead of those washed out, ugly colors they use now. The colors on the 5C were so superior to anything apple has spit out after it. Although, my first IPhone was the gold 5S, I was in the fifth grade when it came out and everyone loved me because my phone was so cool lol. Apple needs to make these fun, simple phones again. Everything now just has to be better and better each year regardless if the shit added has any practical value.
I remember for a while, a lot of carriers were trying to get rid of these for like $100.. Albeit probably with a contract and such. They were practically giving them away.
Lol I got an iPhone SE 2020 model for 50 bucks on a two and a half year contract. The contract ended last year and I could totally get something else if I wanted to but I don’t plan on getting rid of it anytime soon
I remember that. They did that with a lot of phones before everyone switched to installment plans instead of contracts. First time I remember that happening was towards the end of the 4 lifecycle, the 3GS was only $50 from AT&T, which was a great deal at the time for a phone that was the main one only a year earlier.
Honestly if there's one thing I wished they had learned with the 5C, it was having cool colors for the phones. Like I just recently upgraded from my 11 to a 14 pro max and going from my cool mint green phone with a clear case to having the choices of just gold, silver, black, and whatever color they hit on a dart board this time around, which this time was purple, was a bit disappointing. Made even worse that every clear magsafe case with green trim I find uses this extremely dark forest green that just feels boring, cause otherwise I could pair my silver phone with a green clear case for a colorscheme I can be happy with.
I bought a blue 5C a couple years ago because of the nostalgia your channel brought back. Still works, fairly decent condition too! I use it as a backup phone occasionally
I had one of these as my first phone and it was excellent. I had the same green color and it was a hand-me-down from my mother. Worked great for a long time, even got things like discord to work on it, but when I finally got a new SE I relegated it to the dreaded "Electronics bin" where it lies to this day. Won't hold a charge but if you plug it in it'll power up and run, albeit very, very poorly.
The 5C has a special place in my heart. It was my first smart phone and i loved the colors. My friend had the green one and it survived being lost in the snow for 7 months with no case and worked when she found it lolll
I’ve always heard that the ‘real’ reason they didn’t keep the 5 around was because the chamfered edges Jony Ive insisted on were too expensive for a cut priced phone. The later SE didn’t have them.
I believe it was because they were supply constrained for the aluminum, so they went with plastic to have the aluminum entirely for the 5S. Plus plastic is cheaper which means bigger margins.
The 5C was my first smart phone. I remember my family got it because we didn’t have a lot of money and my old flip phone had died. Unfortunately we couldn’t get a laptop and another flip phone (which was the original plan) because the tiny little town we lived in only had one phone store and they went all in on the new smart phones. So for the end of my middle school and the majority of my high school life I had a cheap little iPhone as my “computer”. A significant amount of the papers I had to write in that time were done on a 5C with a Bluetooth keyboard. It was a really good little phone.
The colours were really cool and funky! Definitely really unique but I gotta admit, I don’t mind the more pastel relaxed colours of iPhone now. I feel they’re 100% easier to choose cases for and etc.
The iPhone 5c was my first phone and I had it from launch up until around late 2016. pretty unremarkable phone but for a 13 year old kid getting his first phone it was magical. I remember that thing being so delicate though from the plastic construction, you had to have an otterbox on it for it to not break instantly if you dropped it lmao.
I remember seeing news about an Australian police department warning people not to use Apple Maps. They issued that warning after they rescued people who were stranded in the outback because they ran out of gas thanks to bad directions.
Anyone who has owned an iPhone 3G knows that is truly the worst iPhone ever made. Never got much software updates, and was painfully slow. And it felt like a slap in the face when the 3GS came out with how superior it was in almost every way than the 3G.
Oh I love that thing. That exact green one was my second smartphone and it was janky sure, but it did its job and it was a huge upgrade from a flipphone or an Iphone 3 (also those dotted rubber cases are a THROWBACK)
The 5C was so baller. I loved my pink one. Indestructible, cheap as hell. Perfect. The 8 gig was TOTALLY usable I didn’t even reach storage limit on it. I used it for 2 years before I got the 6s+ I used for like 6 years
Lol pretty much the same story here but with a 16GB it was my first phone as a teen but it couldn’t handle the amount of memes I had. Then I had a 6s for like 8 years still perfectly functional but less battery capacity, glitchy and laggy at times. Now I have a 14 and it low key kinda sucks I miss the headphone jack and it does have a little bit of glitching that my 6 only had after a few years of use but nothing serious where it hinders tasks tho
@@heykarimu it was kinda hard to do something like that back then…we have cheaper phones nowadays,but apple’s phones always tend to be more expensive,even the budget models (believe me,I’m writing from an SE gen 2) are more than their android counterparts
@@christiely5832 lowkey I would probably still have the 6s but I made the mistake of updating IOS so I could use the chic fil a app. Avoided IOS updates for like 3 years and that one bricked it.
The only phone repairs I've ever done have been on iPhone 5c. It (along with your videos) gave me the confidence to start repairing my iPod, then upgrading it, then upgrading friends' iPods. Weird that AirDrop doesn't work for you, though. I use it on the daily to transit files between my work Macs (I somehow manage better than wired network speeds with AirDrop haha). The most insane time I used it was when I was deploying the full Adobe CC suite to a lab of Macs at the same time as our server team was doing maintenance. I just brought the Adobe installer I got from our Adobe CC portal and AirDropped it from my computer to a few other systems and from them to all the rest of the systems in parallel. I was shocked as to how well it worked! that's actually just given me an idea - what if MDM software was location-aware and could seed files to a few computers in a lab and mesh download it to the other systems via AirDrop! That'd probably be a reaaaaly niche use case, but it'd be cool!
Ahh my first phone. I’ll always remember taking a few pictures and downloading like 5 games until I found out my 8gb storage had already ran out on the first day. Truly one of the phones of all time.
8:13 I asked Siri for Ikea and she routed me to Sweden. I'm not kidding. I got a 1000 mile trip. Luckily for me, the Ikea i wanted to went to, was on that route😂
The only iPhone I ever wanted was the 5c, I was still a bit young for a smartphone, but I remember thinking the plastic back was nice because you didn't have to worry about damaging it as much.
I remember I got the white 5C and a few months in the screen randomly started coming apart, like literally just started splitting apart from the frame for absolutely no reason, never dropped it or anything. Traded it in for the 5S right after that.
This is my exact phone for YEARS. I loved my 5c to death, it was sturdy, reliable, and to me the best phone I ever had. My mom bought it for me bc I was promoted to the top class during my highschool. I had a lot of fun with it and tinkered with it a lot back when jailbreaking an iPhone was really popular. I love it so much and really made me miss its form factor.
I loved these when I was in college. I could pick them up for super cheap because of the surplus for like $150. I did it well past Apple's software support and they operated fine for a kid in school. The only issue I hated was the plastic case, because when you cracked the screen the plastic wouldn't hold on to the screen and would lift off the phone. If you did replace the screen, you would constantly be worried about it lifting back off because the repair never quite seated as good as the brand new phone. Wonderful memories, terrible camera.
My first iPhone was a 5c in white. Considering I wasn’t(and still am not) up on current Apple phones, I loved it. The battery started heavily losing range after a year, but it was great! Currently writing this on my 7+ I got after upgrading and have had ever since haha
I very nearly bought one of these, went for the 5s instead for just a bit extra. Loved the 5s and eventually upgraded that to a first gen SE. A lot of people I knew at the time had a 5c.
They were so frail. I had one from my employer and carried it together with my other phone. I was on 5C number three and still using the same personal phone.
My sister had the exact same green iPhone 5c. I liked it, thought the color was neat, and she kept it for a while. The only complaint I heard from her was that they tended to get really hot under heavy cpu load, like playing a game, or something like that. We had 5’s then when the family upgraded in 2014 (I think? Not too sure about iPhone release dates) my parents went to 6s’s, my sister chose the 5c, and I got the se. I like to think I won that generation lol. Kept the se for 5+ years then finally upgraded to a Xs in 2019. Rocking a 14 Pro now and I’m loving the camera.
I had a 5c for years and years, it was my first phone. It had some really terrible screen problems by the end where it would just perform random actions by itself. Only phone where I’ve ever had that issue.
This video brought back some memories. my first ever iPhone was 5s, the gold color. I remember that I had a Galaxy note 1 before that and I asked my dad if I can get an iPhone. he said that he couldn't afford one at the moment so I just gave up. then out of nowhere he surprised me on my 15th birthday, fooling me that the boxed present is a cologne at first (never change dad). I got it right when the IPhone 6 came out but the 5s was amazing for me. unfortunately after like 2 years later it got a malfunction and I was told the drive was fried or something. thank you for the nostalgia Mr.Dank.
I loved mine when I had it back in high school. I wish I had gotten a color instead of plain white still. God the feel of it in the hand was just so so nice. Good memories with that little guy
Had a blue 5c in high school. It was definitely one of my favourite phones, not because it was good, but because I had it for some of my most fond memories.
Smashed phone screens were a common problem back then but this phone was really vulnerable to it. I was quite good at taking care of my phones but within a month of getting a 5C, I dropped it 2-3 inches off of a stone countertop and the screen smashed immediately. The polycarb was quite cool though I also remember it being a grease magnet.
The iPhone 5C was the first iPhone I had. I got it as a test device for learning iOS development, and I started using it as a main phone, largely due to the today view widgets, which I found to be a convenient way to view information. I quite liked the polycarbonate body, it's an attractive material that feels good to hold.
I'm just sitting here, with my same snot green 16gb 5C in my hands watching this (I got her out just to watch this video). This was my first iPhone, got it from my parents after they surprise visited me on my birthday after a few months of moving to an other city - so it has a special place in my heart. And the phone is sturdy as hell, I've never used a case on it, as I love the color, and this plastic is still in a great condition.
7:35 I was born in London and have lived in New York and Los Angeles because of my parents work, I always heard people complaining about apple maps and how bad it was but never understood, thanks for the insight!
I'm still rocking the original SE. Aka "iPhone 6S guts smashed into a the chassis of iPhone 5S". It is a beautiful little device and still does anything I need it to do. And supports up to iOS 15, which is crazy to me.
I had a 5c as my first real smart phone and I loved that thing so much mine but eventually did suffer from the screen splitting from the plastic back constantly
My absolute favorite iPhone. I got it second-hand from my dad. It was the perfect pocket size, weight, and at the time had great apps. I carried this iPhone throughout all my days at college and most of my military career. I used my 5c right up until the battery wouldn't turn on anymore. I swapped the battery out and then kept using it some more. I eventually upgraded to the iPhone XR right after the 11 came out for really cheap and it felt like I had just come out of the stone age. Got my wife an iPhone 12 Pro Max as a gift on a "buy one, get one" deal through my cellular provider and I will look at upgrading from my 12 probably around the iPhone 17 haha.
The 5c was my first iPhone! It worked pretty good for about 2 years until the battery shat itself, it just stopped working without being plugged in eventually :(
i had a 5C from 2018 to 2020, secondhand obviously. It was great, and the only issue i had with it was the battery got fucked after i dropped it, replacing the battery was easy af. Ive since upgraded to a 7 and recently got a 12 mini, but i still have my 5C around edit: The 5C was also a massive upgrade from my $20 android, and it talked to my iPod touch which i used for music (spotify, screw itunes) and photos.
This phone came out when I was in entering high school and teenager wise all the kids wanted the iPhone 5c over the 5s the colors were really attracting to teenagers. I remember having the green one and if someone else had a 5c people would always be comparing colors in class this has to be my favorite phone I was pretty fond of at the time!
