    dcntdude, 14 Dec 2012Hello, Apple make Great Products.. But iPhone 5 is a total Waste of Money. It's not a Sop... moreYeah apart from the lack of Apps on WP8 it does look really nice and some time in the future I might consider buying one.
    And you right that while the iPhone is very good if you just want the most basic features but for low end use it's not that much better than some WP8 & Android phones but you still paying a lot more for the phone and with all the Apps and features you get free on other platforms you can easily spending hundreds of Dollars extra and you really not getting your money's worth for it, and if people with iPhone just admit they paying more than it's actually worth then I can fully respect those people because they going in with their eyes open knowing fully what to expect.

            It's not a Sophisticated product because Apple needs to have Credit Card no. To create an Apple ID 'N' More of DownLoads are PAID.
            Apple has Smooth UI But what's the Use to Pay First n then useit.

            BY THE WAY WINDOWS PHONE 8 is a GREAT IDLE.
            LIVE TILES USER INTERFACE. N COOL COLOURS.
            LOVE IT.

                The iphone 5 is a great phone, no doubt, but the price is too much for its features, its a phone for people who simply loves apps without having any lags..

                    So just shows people like him are the sort who actually enjoy Smartphones and like to make the most of them, because with Android and WP there's very few restrictions, so basically people might love iPhone but once you get to that stage you becoming a Smartphone power user you just have to realise that iPhone is perfect for casual users but anything more than that and the iPhone starts looking really bad, and a lot of people just refuse to accept when they've outgrown the iPhone and have to make massive compromises.

                          vin, 14 Dec 2012HI ppl. Need ur opinion. I am planning to buy a new phone.. M a bit confused between iphone 5 ... moreYOur S3 becomes obsolete when s4 comes out, because new updates will no longer be available for the S3. Androids lifespam per phone is your phone will handle updates up to one year, as for iphones, its up to 3 years. Pretty much a bad choice right now, for S3. You might as well wait for the ip5.

It's... moreIf you want mew things, it is understandable that you complain. The features in iphone is cause iphone is iphone. It attracks people in the past cause of certain features and I really can't see Apple to change the recipe. NFC and wireless charging? Lol. I think complaining about changes NOT made is unfair. Android keeps the recipe. They will improve but not change. Better the devil u know....Some changes people say they want....I think they are not even use the features available!

                                    But seriously this just proves 1 phone isn't better than the other, because to some people iPhone would be amazing but to some the iPhone is just overpriced, under performs and chronically restricted so would never consider it because some people like a phone to do everything they need and iPhone is just miles away from getting even close to that.
                                    So basically what I'm saying is if you just want a phone to do little more than check your emails and Facebook then iPhone is the best, but if you actually want a Smartphone then it quickly becomes increasingly useless.

                                      HI ppl. Need ur opinion. I am planning to buy a new phone.. M a bit confused between iphone 5 and samsung galaxy s3. Currently i am using galaxy i9003 since 2 yrs. My phone keeps hanging on a regular basis. I am assuming this could be due to the android OS or may be i use internet heavily on my phone,use a lot of bluetooth to transfer files, watch movies on my phone. Is it because of the heavy RAM useage my phone hangs?
                                      I have heard that iphone has the below limitations:-
                                      a. No bluetooth facility to transfer files.So, any alternative to do so?
                                      b. Iphone 5 does not support all video formats?.SO, does it have an application that runs all formats?

                                      I have seen few ppl carrying an s3 who are recent purchasers of the phone. and they love it. I have also seen ppl who regret buying a s3,simply coz it hangs
                                      PLz help
