Apple iPhone 5 vs. Samsung Galaxy S III: All rise - read the full textWhen we review phones we try to put them in context, and tie everything up with a snapshot of the market and the closest alternatives. Now, we usually keep droids and iPhones separate because honestly they just don’t mix. But every now and then...

Thank you for a thorough review. I am looking to upgrade my phone, had narrowed it down to 2, but got stuck there. At least now I will make a well informed decision.

Thanks again.

This is probably the best and most well written comparison I have ever read. All the information I needed to make a decision was there. I have decided and tomorrow i am buying a Motorola. HA!

My ip5 is only 1 week old issues are as follows... Battery life ; only 3-4 hours of non stop use ( 2-3 charges on my days off mucking round on it ) reception signal slim to none indoors in my house but walk two steps outside and it's fine . Can't use when charging as it heats up majorly and that can't be good at all.
Any one having these issues also ??

I'm starting to assume that all the people who are saying Iphone5 is the best are just trying to convince themselves that they didn't waste their money on something that's still having a hard time beating a phone 2/3 of its price and was released months earlier than it. I'm not saying that Iphone5 or S3 is better than the other, but still... it seems that they're tied on a lot of stuff, and yeah Iphone5 has some cooler features, but come on! You think the extra price was for lollipops? Of course not! It's for the extra juice, dimwits. If Samsung charged as much as apple, and released it at the same time, none of us would spend our time here debating... And will all just agree that yeah, they're pretty much the same?

I use galaxy s3 and l love my phone.
i think galaxy s3 has better screen size,better battery life,and better os than iphone 5.
Android is more better than ios.its easy to work with android.you can do everything with your phone without rooting android.but you should hack your iphone to do simple thing you wish!!!
The price of galaxy s3 is good and totaly i prefer my samsung phone to iphone.
