AnonD-8044, 31 Jul 2013When did ip5 go to 1.3GHZ?..i missed that. Apple haters ... moreThey have being top every year in terms of application quality and system performance.

They release a redesign every 2 year consistently to follow the 2year telco plan. So not to upset customer of the previous generation.

Every year you get an OS upgrade free regardless for at least 3 years

Do not get confused by bashing fanboys:
1. Specs
2. Benchmarks
3. Features.

Because they can be faked and is pertaining only to a particular usage pattern.. and OS usage.

    Yingyang, 30 Jul 2013All of your complaints have solutions. Stop bashing iphone ... moreThe specs speak for themselves. S4 beats iPhone5 in every spec:

    - iPhone 5 still using 1.3 GHz dual-core processor? Come on. S4 has 2 quad-core processors (1.6 GHz for intensive processing, and 1.2 GHz for saving battery when not intensive).

    - S4 has twice the RAM.

    - S4 display has a higher resolution (~441 ppi vs 326 ppi)

    - S4 has 13MP camera, iPhone 5 has 8MP camera.

    - S4 has the Android stock browser and Chrome browser, much better than Safari.

    - S4 has Android, a superior operating system that is open, allows Java and Flash to run, and gives you access to many free services that you need to pay for if you use iOS.

    Samsung Galaxy S4 beats iPhone5 hands down.

      When did ip5 go to 1.3GHZ?..i missed that.

      Apple haters complain iPhone 5 have poor specs vs samsung galaxy s4. or note2.

      But when it comes to using application iphone5 is faster.. So whats the point of specs if it does not help in performance?

      Exactly whats been said for years.Iphone is consistently ,consistent consistently.

      Are Apple about to blow us away with something new this year or keep the same and disappoint us.They really need to up their game because this iphone has to last another year bringing it to Sept 2014 and by then SO much will have happened ,even new O/S out.

          You might break it at day one.

          A simple google for the symptoms and ask around the apple support forum would already address your problem.

              I have had my Apple iPhone 5 for 6 months. I haven't been rough with it. Today my email froze. When I called support they told me I couldn't speak to a technician because I didn't have AppleCare. The phone is less than a year old and expensive. There is no reason why I should pay to get advice over the phone about what might be wrong. I am getting less and less happy with Apple as a company.

                        AnonD-137486, 29 Jul 2013Why everybody has bad perception on apple product? Iphon... moreis not bad reputation about apple products, is more about certain users, who like to troll or insult other people just because they use something different.

                        i know apple quality tends to be good, however since they become so massive it is merely logical and usual that a few units come with a defect or two, and i guess it was just apple luck that those units got to the hands of very picky users who love to make public anything related their apple products (a bad counter action of the evangelist commerce), thus giving a bad reputation to apple in the end.
                        now on the warranty regard, now most companies do that also.
                        on the price, well, if it was as cheap as a xiaomi, it wouldn't be seen as something worth having by many people, also the materials they use have different price due to manufacture process.

                        for a comment i would just encourage everyone to get the 64GB one, so they would have enough storage, for now, wait and see if they make a bigger one next year

                          This phone plays the role of a top-tier flagship yet it has the specs of a cheap Android. Makes me wonder why people bitch about Moto X's specs?

                                  After 6 months of use I have got to say a phone I will not use again. Inflexible is the word that comes most to mind. How about being able to use the apps one would like to? A file manager? iTunes is a joke!
