Let me apologize in advance if this topic was already brought up, but does anybody know if the i phone 5 is compatible with the new accord? I went to the Honda website to the Bluetooth and hands free site and it says apple 3 through 4s are compatible but doesn't mention 5. Does anyone know?

It is 100% compatible. iPhone 5 is compatible with A2DP Profile (for audio streaming), and AVRCP profile (play, pause, previous, next). I know that the Accord is A2DP compatible, not sure about AVRCP.

SMS Text Message Function
All Accord models have a standard SMS Text Message function that can read incoming texts aloud over the audio system, and allow the driver to reply with any of six factory preset messages. The system works with SMS-capable cell phones that have an active data plan and the Message Access Profile (MAP), such as the Blackberry, Droid X and others.The iPhone does not support this feature.
At this time, the Pandora® Audio USB interface in the Accord only supports the iPhone. To use Pandora® in the Accord, an iPhone is connected via the USB port located in the center console. The vehicle’s audio source is set to iPod, the Pandora® app is launched on the iPhone. (If the Pandora® app is not launched, the phone will function as an iPod.) The i-MID (or navigation display in vehicles with navigation) and audio touch-screen displays Pandora® information and album art, and the audio controls allow listeners to choose from among existing stations, pause, resume, skip forward, and mark a track with "like" or "dislike" ratings. To ease driver use, some functionality of the Pandora® iPhone app is locked out when using the Accord’s Pandora® interface.
Pandora® internet radio audio can also be streamed wirelessly to the Accord by a compatible cell phone (not only the iPhone) via the Bluetooth® HandsFreeLink® connection. With this type of connection, however, only the sound level of the Pandora® radio station can be controlled through the Accord; other features of the Accord’s Pandora® interface are not available.

I believe this is out of date as of 9/19/12. As I posted in the Audio & Electronics forum, IOS 6/iPhone 5 now support MAP profile of Bluetooth, so I believe the SMS should work. I don't know if the MAP support extends to earlier iPhone models, however.

I must admit, I don't visit the "Audio & Electronics Forum" but I will now.
It would be nice if you didn't have to use Blue-Tooth, I would prefer to be wired, so I wouldn't forget to turn off blue-tooth and drain my phone's battery.

Thanks for the info. I also wrote to Honda and this was their e-mail response :
Thank you for contacting us in regards to your HandsFreeLink system.
At this time, the iPhone 5 has not yet been tested. We cannot say whether or not it will be compatible until after it has completed the testing process. When a new phone is released, it is up to the carrier to send the phone in to be tested with the HandsFreeLink system. Once a phone is recieved, it generally takes between three and six weeks to complete the testing process.
However, this does not mean that the phone is not compatible, or that it cannot be paired. If you would like to call us, we could walk you right through the pairing process while speaking on the phone.
Sincerely,
HandsFreeLink Customer Service

The iPhone is one of the most popular smartphones on teh market. If all of Honda's features won't work today with it, they will tomorrow I'm sure. :)

bluetooth audio as well as the USB on my iphone 5 works without an issue on my 2012 MDX tech. It should be the same on the accords (old and new).

The site shows it to be compatible, you have to go to the third page of the apple phones to finally see the iPhone 5.
But, the site says only compatible for receiving text msgs and for the notifications. Says no fro sending them. Thx
