                    Can only really afford this second hand but want 5s.I am only missing fingerprint scanner because speed wise the 5 is fast enough..So really overall the 5s has fingerprint scanner over 5 so may as well buy 5 then its just I usually want latest model..

                    I am using android but bored of it so returning to IOS again for about 20th time.

                        Exactly, Samsung isn't in the same league as iPhone, and you right, even with all of those specs, they still lag, have second rate batteries, and are not worth the price!

If it is the best phone around. Why is that. It is not the conpetitor of 5s? But 5. Which is last years phone? And even on the sales. It sucks. No wonder samsung will releas the s5 earlier this year. Nice try samsung.

                            len, 11 Dec 2013Which is faster the Dual-core or quad-core ??? think of it !If you compare dualcore and quadcore just like that, for sure quadcore is faster. But in this case, iOs is fast with only dual core compare to android. Lets say that you're comparing between 4cylinder engine with a v8 engine, for sure v8 is faster. But if you put 4cyl engine on a sedan an v8 on a truck, the sedan will move much faster. So, think of it. Im not an apple user FYI.

                                You not going to convince me than an S4 is better, I've had lots of experience with S4s and I hate them, they not as quick, don't last as long, and they have a jumpy feel to them. Read about how electronics systems work and then maybe you can make a valid point.

I have used both S4 and iPhone 5, I have an iPhone 5, and it kills an S4 in every aspect, including battery. The battery on an S4 drains super fast, go to the S4 page and look at how many people are complaining about it, and then look at how many complain on this page.
                                  Furthermore do you know what the mAh stands for concerning batteries, and do you understand the loads imposed on a battery and how that can change it's life span? From your comments I don't think so. I don't have time to explain it to you now, but go and read up on it and maybe then you'll understand why the S4 has bad battery life.

                                      iPhone5 fell from 15Floor to BASEMENT and still WORKING

                                      We were heading home, when I asked my husband to go back to my office to get the medicines I left on my desk. On his way down, he pulled out his iphone5 from his jeans pocket so he can call to inform me that the meds were not there. When he took it out, it slipped through his hands and fell right through the elevator hole from the 15 floor straight to the building basement. He rushed to the basement to retrieve the phone, all too scared to think on what he might be finding there. When he got to the basement, he saw the phone broke in two pieces with the LCD although not broken got detached from the back case. He tried turning on the phone and voila! The phone turned on and was in fact receiving text messages. He tried calling a number and surprisingly it dialed and the call went through. He tried opening an app, and it opened with no problem. I was just so amazed that instead of feeling hopeless I felt happy knowing that it was still working despite the fall from that height. When I got home, I read the warranty service from apple and from the carrier where we got the phone from and unfortunately incident like this is not covered under the warranty. So we decided to contact a third party repairer and had the phone checked , and was surprised to know that what we only need to replace the back case since it got badly broken and that there really is no problem with the other features of the phone except for the front camera which stopped working. But that really is not much of our concern, since we are not really into selfies (hehe). The fact that the phone is still working after that unintentional EPIC drop test is more than a relief to us. I can now therefore say that getting the phone was the best decision we made otherwise we could be back into getting another cheap phone by now and it could have been another pain in our budget.
