Again about screen size there is a lot of different opinion for every people. I feel comfortable enough with my iphone 4 screen, now on 5 is good enough. One thing that i ilke, i can still put my iphone 5 on my pocket with 1 other phone. Iphone 5 simply the best of everything that u can get on a smartphone.

                    I think the Android Fanboys need to chill out...

                    Yes the S3 is a great phone, but looks cheap and the design is aweful apple stuck to what works and what people like the iphone 4,4s and 5 all look awesome...

                    i never used an iphone before the 5 i have always had samsungs but the look of the s2 was so much nicer than the s3, hence i bought the iphone which i feel is much easier to use than the android phones and doesnt lack anything, The app store is 100% better although you pay for the apps you get the full Ad free app, not the half android apps full of ads,

                    At the enmd of the day they are both phones and its personal opinion having used andropid and IOS i will deffinatly be sticking to IOS from now on as its a much easier to use system and much more reliable. also iphone looks 1000% better than the s3.

                      iPhone 5 looks like an incremental upgrade on paper, but once in your hand, only then you realise what a phenomenal upgrade it is. Best choice I ever made.

                      This is simply put, the best smartphone out there, by being the ultimate package and combination of software, hardware, design, performance and efficiency. Coupled with the superb app store, it is second to none.

                      There are phones that can beat iPhone on certain individual features, but never together, that's why you need an SGS3 for the screen, the Lumia for camera etc, but the single best package?.... iPhone 5. No contest.

                            Anonymous, 14 Nov 2012As a company I actually respect Apple's marketing department for what they've done because the... moreheres a fact.

                            Despite inferior specs, the iphone5 is still the fastest phone on the planet.

                            No joke. The specs aren't high, but it does everything faster then its top competitors.

                            How do I know this?

                            Youtube iphone5 speed tests vs xxx phone. It even beat the note 2.



                            Apps. Developers focus more on ios then android. Thus giving apple the edge, in fact I think they have a huge advantage on apps.

                            HOw do I know this?

                            I have 2 friends who are developers, 1 of them develops apps, the other develops games actually, and he even he said, his company focuses primarly on IOS, because reason 1. Easier to program. reason 2. Finished product is always good even if there is an android version of it.

                            Another reason

                            The retina display to some extent, is already an hd display. Beautiful display.

                            Quality of the phone.

                            Check out "drops tests" on iphone5. This phone can really last forever.

                            So stop accusing apple users of being uninformed. Maybe some of them are, I can equally say the same thing about android users, for buying a phone that has glitches, malware, and scammers.
