I ordered a 32GB model but sent it back after I looked at the S4. I got the 32 GB model and a 64 gb micro SD card for it plus a UAG case. 5 inch screen 1920x1080 display, 13 mega pixel camera. iPhone is lagging behind. When they catch up I may get an iPhone, for now: "See ya!"

I am running iOS7. I have had every iphone ever and have also been a blackberry user. Generally a cell phone nerd to be honest. I was excited to install the iOS as I was looking forward to a revamped look at the new features. After 24h I want to revert. The beta is extremely stable so this has nothing to do with bugs or anything. The look is just very young, and has taken apple closer to Android / Windows but in the worse way possible. People who bought iPhones bought them to belong to a certain brand, that had a defined look and yes the Androids of this world always had better features but that was not the point. Now when I look at my iphone, I don't feel like I have an Apple product anymore. Apple was uncompromising under Jobs, "take it or leave it". With this new design, Apple is not innovating, they are turning in another the direction and following the pack. I never thought I would say this in 2013, but blackberry may have a play to make here in wooing serious phone users, people who want a unique UI, and people who just like to differentiate themselves from the mass. I understand why Steve Jobs was against the flat design that John Ivey was pushing for so much. He understood that it wasn't about accessing the flashlight on the lockscreen (ios7 has that), it was about belonging to a defined brand with a defined identity.

Ronal87, 13 Jun 2013Great Comparison....Ha ha ha...
and Apple being the Chinese car ? couldn't agree more :-D
I like Apple for its support/services and build quality. That said, the operating system and the bits are not so great.
Apple lost the plot ever since they moved away from Google maps and Calendar. There's enough on the web and on news, so I believe I don't have to comment on this any further.
Andriod gives you the power to do anything you want to do with the OS and the number of available apps are massive.
Apple's media player suck big time and I didn't like the sound quality. At the absence of a customisable GEQ, it's just useless.
In summary, iPhone looks nice and its built quality is excellent but its firmware lets it down very badly.
At the other hand, Andriod is a dream OS but thrown into cheap/crappy devices like Samsung/LG etc. But the latest 4.1.2 on xperia Z makes it a good choice over Apple. Xperia has a quad core processor, so you don't have to change mobiles for a while. ;-)
just my 0.02 cts

used almost all famous android phones(galaxy s 1,2,3,4, Htc desire s, one x, one s, desire hd, sony xperia u, s and all ios Phones except iphone 3gs..
here in pakistan u can have a unlocked phone, use it for a while and then u can sell it in market in a good price and opt for other one... so i used these all phones in this context..
My experience about android is
(1) it is heavy OS, consumes more ram, and storage + battery to provide u adequate experience e.g in( games, and daily ui interaction)(Laggy thoug)
recently bought galaxy s4 = Lags like Hell> camera app most of the time restarted the phone and gaming experiencing still not par with ios even after having Octa core Processor and yet so fragile phone, i dropped my mine from my back pocket on the road and almost all the frame aside of screen got dents and bruises and saw many shattered s4's screens in market already so i sold it( remember i bought it after selling my iphone 5)
Iphone 5= u will not believe it i bought it 2 times and sold it to enjoy the android experience but at the end i always come to the point the in daily routine droid phones sucks crashes all the time so now i m again about to buy an apple device becoz of its stability and class.
iphone does all my daily needs with ease e.g phone app is much more faster to open in ios than in android same to the other apps e.g mssgng.. battery is cool and standby time of iphone 5 is no match to the droids ..its amazing
i am waiting to buy new iphone or iphone 5 in september ....ios 7= cool
