See, you're wrong again! Android phones gives you the options, if you don't want to customize then it fine, no one forcing you! And the default OS is simple, practical and fast too!! Ever checked out HTC One X or S, Samsung GS3 or Note, Sony Xperia S or T. (notice something here? choices! If you don't like the camera quality or screen/phone sides or weight or buttons layouts, well tough luck apple not giving you that!)

Also I'll never buy products from companies that are owned by secret and corrupted organization/crimes. But I'm not gonna get into that because sadly you won't understand... (Reason why I also hate m$)

No I'm not wrong... you just can't accept a lot of people thinks the iOS is better than Android.

I already had a Galasy SII (bad decision) and my closed friend have a Galaxy SIII... I don't like Android because it isn't simple, the UI is just bad... when you use the iPhone or some the WP7 the end-user experience is fantastic like you thinking "wow this is like how every phone may work".

The Android is a bad ideia... the UI is boring and incomprehensible some times... you need to config everything and alway go to google to find how to do things...  the UI is not intuitive.

If you can't acceept that I can't do nothing about... me and a lot of other guys that used Android have the same opinion.

Everything you need works fantastic in iOS and I don't need more than that.

I could say the same thing about iOS. Pezus only a few days ago (might have been this thread actually) explained how to close down open apps whilst on my Andoid phone I do it at the click of a button/widget. My girfriend has had an iPhone for for nearly 2 years now and neither of use knew how to do this. It's not like she hasn't needed to either considering some of the lag she's experienced.

There are also plenty of features that you'd only know if explained by an Apple "geek" or fan precisely because it's not always intuitive. We have an Apple fan at work (plenty of people with Apple products) and he's constantly explaining how to use certain features and gestures (he gets quite excited about it- "With 3 finger you can do this!"). That's not the sign of an intuitive interface.

Well I'm curious to know how further Apple's market share is going to dwindle a few months after iphone 5's launch. It's better to face the real scenario. I know they are some loyal apple fans who attempt to mock Samsung who would be a little surprised to know this. http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10000872396390444318104577588602614746254.html
And now the Nokia Lumia 920 is also around the corner for more competition.



You couldn't figure out how to use iOS? =P



I describe myself as a little dose of toxic masculinity.

Maybe it's me. I love and use Windows but the first time I used the Mac OS X is like "wow everything is like I always expected". The same thing happened with iOS, every feature is like it how it should always be... Android not, seem like more "geek" and I'm not a geek... I'm just a common user.

Anyway I know how to kill the apps in iOS... it's easy and intuitive... but I never need to use this feature, the iOS kills the apps alone when needs more resourses.

I never have lag with it too... or any crash.

lol lol lol lol lol

Anyway the phone are too big for me... I think the iPhone 5 is the max size I can hold confortable.

...Needless to say, they forget to mention that iPhone 5 has a far superior processor (Apple A6) and OS (iOS 6 > 1 year old Android OS)

Smartphone wars are much more interesting than console wars right now. I hope Apple retaliates

*grabs popcorn*

Ha... superior processor?

LOL Samsung galaxy s3 has a quad core, while the A6 is less powerfull and a dual core. IOS6 is not better than current android 4.0

It's not just about how many cores/ghz something is. If something has a more advanced architecture it doesn't need as many cores/speed to have better performance. My old Core 2 Quad cpu had 4 cores, but a dual core i5 cpu would still best it in performance as it has a much more advanced architecture.

iPhone 5 Benchmarked: The Fastest Smartphone in the Land

A phone's hardware performance can't be taken in isolation, but it's definitely a piece of the puzzle. Based on these benchmarks, the iPhone 5 lives up to the promise of being twice as fast as the iPhone 4S. It's also, for now, the fastest handheld computer sold in the US.

Galaxy S3 have two versions... one with quad-core (EU) and other with dual-core (US)... the performance is almost equal... quad-core doesn't mean better.

If you have a S3 in US it is a dual-core.



I've used both now, and I can confirm that the iPhone 5 is 10x better than the galaxy s3. It's an insult to the iPhone 5 to be even mentioned in the same sentence as the galaxy S3...
