      HTC , Samsung and other android devices produces phones which have loads of feature but you hardly use them. and worst of all android phones drains out the battery very quick with compare to iOS. iPhone5 all the way. Simple, straight forward and all the features are for your use.

        [deleted post]I was going to reply with this,

        We don't know quality of the cameras,video quality,microphone quality and speaker quality..We don't know screen quality or outdoor sunlight legibility or build quality..I have never heard of this company so will this be able to buy worldwide on all the frequencys.Has the software been optimised some of the china rip offs are atrocious..

        However everyone deserves a chance so if it comes to UK shops I will see how it fairs.

                      Had it 48 hrs now its white one...Its not first iphone 5 had black one when first come but sent it back had 2 chips in it.

                      Is nippier than 4s if you can believe it, its opens bejewelled 6 seconds earlier..I use 3d bench mark and;

                      4s=time to run it 18.1 seconds at 27.56 FPS
                      5=time to run it 11.53 seconds at 43.25 FPS

                      It feels like when I moved from iphone 4 to 4s you think 4 is smooth and fast but each iteration brings speed inprovements..Camera is faster and video in low light drops no frames and is fluid.

                      Battery life feels same with 12% left about 7pm at night ready for night charge ready for 7am next morning.I would say I am medium user but hammer any smartphone and it will last 3-4hrs except razr maxx or Note.

                      I cant tell photos are any better its all about good light and keeping lens clean they are just fine and does me..Video I am interested in and its very good and so is audio through headphones but speaker crackles/distorts a bit at full blast whereas 4s does not.

                      Overall if I was advising anyone I would still go for the more robust 4s and save money.If you want latest and bigger screen go for 5 it is more 2013 than 4s.I did a deal on my 5 and would advise anyone with money to buy 5 to wait and see what 5s/6 brings,may as well its not far off.

                      You are sort of getting the same thing whether you use 4s or 5 but iphone 4 camera is terrible it ruined so many shots I could not recommend it unless don't care about cam and just want to try iphone for first time.

                                    Anonymous, 26 May 2013Because iOS is not an OS. At least Android has functionality.I alaways put this but the best iphone in the world is the one that suites your needs and is in your budget,,I have had all O/S except Palm and Psion and never got to try WEB O/S. Android and Symbian were the most customisable do everything O/S ive used and IOS and W7.9/W8 the most locked in proprietry ive used..All of them annoy me in some way but the least stressful is IOS and has apps I need but love Samsung and its concert hall setting.


                                    I wish for the newer O/S to come out with full app inclusion of all main apps we use whether Firefox,Ubuntu or Sailfish.

                                    My next phone could be BB q10 when its comes down in price still not keen on these full touchscreen miserable boring slabs,.
