sam, 20 Aug 2014Because apple use's retina reso. got it?!"Retina" is just Apple's marketing term. Apple uses IPS technology on their displays. There is nothing a spectacular on their displays.

        sam, 20 Aug 2014Because apple use's retina reso. got it?!And what does that mean to you? Are you suggesting that the "Retina" display on the iphone is superior to lets say the Galaxy S5's Full HD Super AMoled display? Or the LG G3's QHD screen? No you wouldn't say that would you, because you'd be lying. :)

        Retina display is literally a marketing gimmick, not too different from their supposed 64bit architecture, supposed to be future proof! Well RAM isn't upgradeable on a phone so not sure where they're going with future proof, the architecture of the way that apps are made isn't pushed towards 64bit anyway so again another useless gimmick that you've bought into.

                This phone is dead in the water to anyone with a brain stem before it's even released, same old tat different year. When will people learn they're getting stung for sub standard hardware which will always fail (why on earth do you think that apple only have a 1 year warranty? Doesn't say a lot for their products does it?)
                the amount of people I see on a daily basis for a phone repair who are literally just outside their warranty period and something had failed, it's uncanny.
                To put things into perspective, my HTC Hero and HTC Desire HD are both still running perfectly with no issues at all ?? I've haven't seen the original Iphone for years, probably because they're all broken now.

                The iphone 6 for all it's hype is going to be a flattened out iphone 5s or 4s whichever you might choose. Low RAM, poor build, crap parts and poor warranty, the only thing (AND I MEAN THE ONLY THING) going for apple's iphone are the apps, something which they are losing out on and will lose out on some more overtime.

                Saying that Nokia still seems to drag it's fan boys in even though theres nothing of the company left that made it great in the first place.

                Android is the only viable option for people who want the most out of a smart phone, time will only make that statement stronger.

                Apple knows this.

                As for the sheep, grab your tents, only a few weeks left :D Lmfao

It just goes to show ppl are getting what they are paying for but somehow an iphone costs even more for less. So where does the money go? To the shareholders annual dividend payout maybe?

                              heynekko, 20 Aug 2014At least he gets 100% for what he pays. For iphone overpric... more100% would be if you use all of the features and capabilities of Android. So what Apple users use is better more polished ecosystem is what it is, their integrated system with OSX is seamless, the build is better , the Apple products retain the price better than others over time.
                              Android is better is you are a geek, but for others iOS is more than enough

                                  I don't know why Apple doesn't use a standard display resolutions like 720p, 1080p or QHD. Their display resolutions are very unusual.

                                        There is a lab report (gsmarena doesn't allow me to post) that says regarding ppi this:

                                        For human eye and regular people between 310-380 ppi is more than enough
                                        For magnifier you must have around 400 ppi
                                        And for labs and microscope 500 ppi is already to much
