I didn't compare the cameras, because the three have similar rear camera hardware. The two Android devices have more software camera features though. Front facing cameras on the two Android devices are also superior to the one in 4S. Moreover, the two Android devices are thinner and lighter than the iPhone.

You posted 2 phones released in 2012 and the iphone released in 2011. Why dont you compare the iPhone 4S to phones from 2011 or those 2 phones with the iPhone 5?
|
Because iPhone 4S is currently the top of the line iPhone and it's priced at the same level as the other two phones. When iPhone 5 comes out it will be the one to be considered against the S3 and the One X, but for now this is a fair comparison.

In about a month the iPhone 5 will be released and be priced at [most likely] 199, what will your argument be then? and BTW the iPhone 4S has been discounted to 149 with some places offering 100 dollar gift cards with them.

First of all, I'm in Canada, and where I am 4S is still at about the same price as the Galaxy S3 and One X (although this is a different S3 from the one in the chart).
My argument won't change. iPhone 5 will still fall short of these two phones spec wise and still be at the same price. I'm of course extrapolating based on past apple launches. But this can be said with a high level of certainty. The only difference will be that the spec difference will be a bit smaller. I'm pretty sure it still will not be small enough to justify having the same price.
