Anonymous, 16 Sep 2012why this is so amazing? HTC one s is 7.8mm thick...has bigger screen, ok has lower resolution ... moreApple release one phone in a year in comparison to other phone companies who release 100's of them within the same period and still your phone has flaws and is not even cutting edge in technology and lacks in features while also lagging behind in fire power compared to already existing phones in the market.

    [deleted post]correct me if im wrong but, didnt think there was any performance testing on the ip5 battery? (yet known running on lte anyways)
    also the a6 against the quad s4 krait... again there are no phones sporting the quad s4 krait as yet right?
    also, thought the cpu of the ip5 was still not yet confirmed, hence why there was no word on performance/testing (besides apples claims) at the actual iphone5's launch?

        iPHILIPPINES, 16 Sep 2012Hope to release this smartphone in the PHILIPPINES as soon as possible! I never thinking twice... moreYou just put "Never Think" and "Iphone 5" together...this describes a lot of Apple fans...they don't think...they just buy...I bet some would even buy a piece of stone if it had an apple logo on it hahahaha...
        btw...I'm sticking to my iphone 4s...which STILL has a rating of 8...unlike the iphone 5 which has a 6.6 rating (as of 12:45pm est) hahahaha! :D

            Its the whole quality package that counts..Some Sony's are coming out with 13 MP cams but are they any good in real life..

            Still lots of jealousy on here just dont buy it if you dont want it who gives a shiny shite about any other fone this is the iphone5 forum.

              The design is really bad for that aspect ratio. It only suits with 4:3
              So many people moved to Android

                        This could only qualify as IPhone 4SS.

                        Why not have LTE bands per region. If you live in Europe you want all 800,1800,2600 bands not one European band (1800) and other irrelevant bands. All the bands will have commercial rollout with next 6months. People are buying premium phones for 2 years and not get stuck on 3G.

                        But probably Apple will pull another misleading advert on customers to get them to buy it as full 4G.

                        The latest versions of Iphone and IPads clearly lack innovations.

                        Apple should focus on innovation and technology rather trying to eliminate competition and establish monopoly in US courts with laugable patents.

                                No one may believe this but i got banned 4 times by GSMArena for bashing Apple products..About a year ago i had to try iphone to see what the hype is about and never looked back really.Tried other high end smartfones but Apple just works and always return to iphone.

                                        What is "groundbreaking" innovation? Apple has already done it with the design of it's iPhones. We don't want any groundbreaking re-design of the iPhone. A smartphone should be a pleasure to use and should have all the features to make it "one and only" device to hold on to and sorted. So, only the iPhone satisfies our need more than any other phone.

                                        Apple clarifies that the processor is a much more powerful dual-core ARM cortex A-15 based one, which blows everything else including the "quad-core snapdragon S4 krait". It's a customized design by Apple for it's iOS. It's highly optimized to work wonderfully with the hardware. The screen is made so much thinner with inline design, which makes the screen so fabulous to look and work on. The outer casing is anodized Aluminium and glass, and are designed to make it lighter and sturdier.
                                        The LTE chip is the ultra compact as Apple has redesigned it to work with a single chip. The battery capacity is not that important as a phone optimized to work with it's components (the iPhone battery gives LTE and 3G navigation at 8 Hrs) is far better than a powerful non-optimized one. In my opinion, these are innovation enough for a company which gives finest smartphones in the planet year after year. So much feature in so thin a smartphone is innovative enough.
