      It's amazing how Africa is never considered part of "the world " the iPhone only sells to people who don't know better or are just brand junkies , Android still the leading OS in the continent in smartphone terms , BlackBerry is the most sold because of the communication packages .

                        I wanted to hear some comments about the less heard companies and how their quality is, from the users who have tried their products. But all I hear is how Apple is better and how android is best. C'mon guys, life still goes on.

                          what's your beef with apple. you all want to go down the drain. if you dont want its products, dont buy it. period. seriously, what sick pleasure do you get from bashing every apple article. i dont like samsung but i dont bash it.

                                    first of all , let me face palm 1st .

                                    You just swallow everything apple feed you . "2 times , retina " isnt a industry standard . The 4s is dual cortex A9 clocked at 800mhz , so if iphone 5 is 2 times it would be quad A9 level . Its not considered as top for today standard .

                                    And its isnt on the top of benchmark test also . The 1st place on benchmark ranking is quacolm s4 pro following by exynos 44xx .

But in case of Samsung, they release many models therfore customers have a choice which one to buy. If you compare the no of smartphones apple and Samsung sold since launch of iphone 5 samsung will definitely win
