    Anyone else got this problem, only happens on iPhone 5 and no other device in the house, everytime I try and watch a video it's constantly buffering, my software is uptodate and I've tried a full restore. This is an ongoing problem and pretty fed up with it, should I send the phone back to apple?

    No problems here. Especially going through the you tube app. It's perfect.

    I would say it is important where you use it. I find on facebook it is real slow and wrecked my head. Doing what you said. But on the youtube app it's perfect.

    I thought the reason is because the Dedicated app adjusts the quality for your connection type and speed etc. Where as the likes of viewing on facebook it sends down the best quality over 3g etc.

    It is the app I think, it's when your on a website then play the video the app launches and plays a bit then buffers then plays a bit and so on an so forth.
    Must be a faulty phone them if everyone else's is ok..
