donuds, 01 Oct 2012its bcoz the best selling samsung phones ve been banned by apple in US...and people must be sc... moreUnfortunately, this data was from before the ban. Time will tell of course, but my feeling is also because innovation has been seen all round from the other Android manufacturers, but Samsung hasn't done much except just improve specs and nothing else. Probably there is also some shift from Samsung to Lumia.

Apple maps is up to five times more data efficient than Google maps.

Apple now has to work hard to improve the map data set, and only then will the actual map app shine.

What scratches in daily use and been carefull my ip5 is fine,,it is a bit smeary on aluminium back with grease.If you put money and keys in pocket its bound to scratch..I cant seem to believe your comment..
If its scratched then WHY are you not just returning it to Apple you have 14 days to return for full refund,,sorted.

No one even cares about negative comments about i5 we are going to buy in the midst of savage Samsung wolves. I bought IPhone 5 yesterday during afternoon at Voda World worth R11,500,00. What I like the most about this it's the velocity thereof, it is very fast. ios6 it's sublime. Thanx Apple for this masterpiece...

Been using iphone 5 for 2, days,
Cool phone and very user friendly..BUT always have to keep it boxed cause scratches easily...And I completely disagree with the speed taste against s3,a rooted s3 with jb and also an active ad killer app,s3 is fastest, totally lag free...
I also saw the speed test in youtube,,
I wonder that s3 had updated or not.
Trust me,android can be very best, unless you follow some rule, for an example,,
If you don't clear your ram and kill applications on every 10 minutes, you will find at least 20 to 30 applications constantly running in the back,, which is awesome and ridiculous at the same time.
To me,i love both of my phones, they r good and efficient, because I run them efficiently..

i'm an iphone user since 2008 and i must say i'm pretty satisfied. however as time goes by, and as smartphones continue to give extrat or additional features like gigantic screens offered by android phones, i made a switch to android(although my gf satyed with her 4s) i admit i got lost on how to use the android festures, but eventually got used to it. one thing i really noticed is how scrolling is not as smooth as when ypu used iphone 4s for the first time. i tried researching on how to root the phone (sorry i'm really no a geek) but find it hard to understand the steps, also i use a mac. in fairness, both platforms has it's pros and cons-android for superphone/computer like functionality and iphone for simplicity of use and it's responsiveness. as for os update, you can rest assured the iphone you invested money with will have an os update as long as it's supported, that i don't know about android phones, unless you use a custom rom.
