It's important to note that the iPhone group has relatively same usage habits in that most utilize their phones quite well. Android however have two distinct groups. First group is similar to iPhone in that they utilize their phones well, but there is also a second large group who only use it like normal dumbphones.
Research now shows how large this group is:

Funny how when we watch futuristic science fiction movies, the technology is always invisible, and just works. No one pays attention to tech specs, they just USE the tech.
Sound familiar? Which philosophy is more aligned with this, iOS or Android?
Now we know who has a clear vision of the future.
[deleted post]You are one of the few Erica Sadun mentioned who are "completely missing the point".
Apple's philosophy is that design and user experience are what counts, and tech specs merely SUPPORT the design. Androfreaks merely get hard looking at a list of specs, without even seeing if it does what they want well haha. Sad.
[deleted post]fail! Another fandroid making false claims!
Last time, another fandroid said, the ip5 cannot do networking sharing! It can!
Android does not support your phone to update to any new os beyond 1 year!. As for IOS is 3 years! Yes 3 years! Also Android is not allowing any 512mb phone to be updated to the latest glitched jelly bean 4.2! Why? I have no clue.

SD card is useless as most developers do not develop apps to run off of the sd card. It's good to store photos, videos, and if possible, store some apps, but it wont run.
The other beast phone, Nokia Lumia 920, no sd card. HTC DNA, no sd card, Nexus 4, no Sd card expansion. It's useless.
Stop hating. Why is GSM arena allowing you to this?
Haha why am I not surprised by GSMArena's Voting Results: Design = 4.9 Features = 4.5 and Performance = 5.4??? LOL. Sammy rules!
[deleted post]Folk know all this when they buy one plus 90+% of buyers are normobs not geeks like here on GSMArena...So the majority of buyers are noobs who talk/text do twtter and social messaging and want a simple to use smartfone..Ask a noob in the street about USB OTG and drivers etc and they will stare at you with blank face..
Iphone is uncomplicated and slick whereas Android is complex and juddery..You dont understand that we are geeks on here and majority of folk are not so iphone sells to the noobs.
AnonD-56991, 26 Nov 2012Depends what you want the phone to do because iPhone is very limited depending on what you doi... moreapple is the no 1, better than all phone, so do'nt pretend, never make a lie to others, all phone are Copycat & need more more to upgrade, wise spenders buy iphone now, U 2.
I don't care wot people say, to me the iPhone is the best for my needs. The camera is much better in low light than with the SG3, and so easy to get to on the iPhone. The apps are better on the iPhone than SG3, yeah you may have to pay but at least you don't get any spam or virus' coming through (read BUS PARKING 3D comments on Android, it's just come out for the iPhone, paid for it, but NO SPAM), and there are free apps to download on the iPhone. The iPhone is more stable and secure.
[deleted post]You have to realise that Apple is obsessed with being the thinnest, lightest, highest benchmarks or whatever to have the headlines that they the top of something, so they never gonna be like Nokia where they make their phones like old Mercedes to be better built than they ever need to be and will last forever.

apple is so ambitious is crazy. You guys took smart phones, to a whole new ball game, other companies followed your foot steps.
you guys produced the first successful tablet, other companies like Samsung followed your foot steps.
You guys opened up stores, you have punks like Samsung opening similar stores, with product displays, and sample units on the table even copied their same style, wearing blue t shirts, and you have samsung and Microsoft following your foot steps also. Microsoft and Samsung both having store reps wearing t shirts. Even sony Store has changed their store style to having display units on the table.
Keep up the good job apple. These low life companies will continue to follow your foot steps, then make a stupid claim "they didn't invent it"
Good job apple. Ignore these fandroids.

also the update is not ready for s3 yet because, the new update caused the s3's in Asia to crash and die.
Stop making stuff up also. IOS is just plain better, why do you have to say, "it has less stuff"????
Jelly Bean 4.2 is nothing but failure. You fandroids refuse to admit that! I will continue posting this link, if you guys keep attacking ios.
go away troll.

Unless someone's a biologist of sorts who looks at each microbe on every pixel of a phone, it makes as much sense to buy a Droid DNA as to understand this comment.
