SteveCHOPS, 16 Apr 2013Did you forget about the HTC One? It's not about the megapi... moreWhile the technology is great for low light photos, the HTC One's camera can't output photos as good as high resolution ones. If there was an 8 ultrapixel sensor, then yes, it would be ok, but this is more of an experiment, since the camera on the HTC is good for the size of the senzor, but lacking for a top notch phone.

    AnonD-59657, 16 Apr 2013why only 12MP???? always behind Galaxy S4 and Xperia Z. wh... moreThe sensor isn't everything. What the software does with it is also important. The 8MP unit on the 4s, SGS3 and note2 held their own against many 12/13 MP ones from Sony and LG.

      If it ain't broke don't fix it. See what happened when MS tried to change Windows with Vista.... iOS works perfectly well. If there's any changes needs then it would be perhaps add widgets or something similar or maybe a revamp of the style.

      No-one transfers files by Bluetooth or uses their phone as a hard drive. No one watches video often enough on phones. A tablet is best. Buy an iPad or a Nexus.

      I like how fanboys are hypocrits saying iOS is boring then saying looks don't matter when Sammy releases another SGS3 design. I

                            AnonD-136108, 16 Apr 2013REALLY? I don't think so. The iPhone is stale. The UI ha... morejust because u dont like it and got bored with it doesnt mean others dont like it. i still like it. as a matter of fact, i have my iphone5 jailbroken not to change the looks, but to add more functionality(bitesms, stride, turn to ignore, etc) which is where iOS is lacking. But iOS has always been about being easy, flawless, and basically just works. Forget the looks. iOS needs more functionality, and flexibility rather than looks, for sure.

Android has always been broke. thats why the constant change and more and more greater specs are needed for a flawless and lagfree android experience...
