    No matter what the people say this or that for the next iphone, I am going to have it if it carries a bigger screen. So far I have used a 32 gig iphone 3gs and it has been wonderful and has kept upto my expectations in comparisions to the latest phones. Although it was more than three years old, I could watch live streaming on 3g as well as on wifi. I could skype and use viber to call frens abroad, watch catch up tv and the most important of all I watched most of 2012 live games on BBC sport. Ah ... I just missed one thing and it would have been heavenly if it had a little bigger screen. Processing wise, it's alrite for a three year old stuff.

      Someone i replied to has a SGS3 for tv compatability and live streaming..Therefore the iPhone would be useless for him..It is good to buy a smartfone to suit YOUR needs it is essential else your wasting your cash..What is so negative is folk just bashing a fone for no reason at all..This just leaves less space for constructive news/critisism.

      That person could have come on here and bashed iPhone saying its rubbish for streaming live tv,,instead he said that he uses SGS3 because it does what he wants his fone to do and whats important to him.He said he would buy iPhone if it supported live tv streaming for said apps in a sort of roundabout way..

          I am sure that this mobile is going to be great! I also agree that samsung galaxy S3 is good and it has many functions, but apple is apple!

                bowling king, 19 Aug 2012can not watch tv live free, like mtv movie cinemax world news cnn, and some channel all live, ... moreFound CNN but not live streaming but you will have to repost because it sounds like one sentence,no commas i.e.

                mtv movie cinemax world news cnn ???That needs some punctuation to make sense..

                Also countrys differ and some content is only available in certain countrys...It has been a long standing fault on gsmarena that folk dont put where they are from..My biggest bugbear is someone who comes on and says,"How much is this fone"?? Well cant you ask in your own town shops,what about a google search,do you want in sim free,contract,pay as you go?????

                Yes the worst question on gsmarena is ,,"How much is this fone"??!!

                            After researching for a very long time the Apple comes out with the same design as iphone 4 & 4s and making the apple iphone 5 no different and spectacular as we all were expecting from you.... Apple Inc has disappionted us a lot. It should have done much more better and extraordinary... I'm very sorry to say this but Apple didn't work hard on the Apple iphone 5...!!!!!!!

                                  S3 and One X both are better specs than this. Apple can't keep up anymore.

                                      ppl who cry foul over iphone's screen aspect ratio should realise that the screen is not only used to watch videos but for web surfing too.and 3:2 gives more screen area.
                                      upto 4" this ratio is perfect
