Anonymous, 18 Nov 2012It's not inferior coding it's all about optimisation of sys... moreFailed optimization i would say...
If you have a little of brain or say it is not brainwashed by the illusion of freedom shown to u by your windows or android than you would see that iOS works just as smoothly in all different intel processors... Its not the name of the brand or the category(like gaming pc) which counts but the type of processor via which binary commands are given and channeled...
Talking bout lowest of the denominator my friend, iPhone 3gs is is the lowest denominator with iOS while jelly bean doesn't have this low a denominator so please recheck whatever u said only actually says how crappy android and its inferior coding is...and how superior iOS is...
Proper multitasking is not hard to pull, its hard for android and google to pull it, there are a number of useful apps in iPhone which does proper multitasking with awesome smoothness...
Widgets being useful or not is just bout different opinions, for some it is useful some only consider it as a waste of power and useless complexities...but still compare it to windows live tiles if u r talking bout constantly running weather and news and lot more, than you'll see how buggy android is...
IOS is definitely not basic...only people who don't go deeper into it say such foolish notions... If you feel android is for tech geeks and iOS is plain and simple (like many fools think here) let me tell u its not...its quite the opposite in reality...try cracking iOS and u'll know your answer...

iPhone user, 18 Nov 2012I have a 64GB iPhone 5. I don't have to worry about saving ... moreAlso in addition to what was just said, you can move any App or file to external SD using App called Directory Bind and technically there is some viruses but I don't know anyone that's had one and you don't get viruses from Apps from Google Play, Amazon Apps etc. and you only find any kind of Malware usually on "Cracked" Apps, and what you call spam is simply Ads that mean almost 75% of Android Apps are free, and Google actually cares that people get peed off by Ads so they allow Ad blockers free to download from Google Play even though Google make almost all of their revenue from Ads.

iPhone user, 18 Nov 2012I have a 64GB iPhone 5. I don't have to worry about saving ... moreHahaha! Very funny! For your information SG3 comes in not only 16GB storage, there are also 32GB and 64GB SG3.
And an additional option of external SD card memory of up to 64GB.
Putting it together, the 64GB SG3 + 64GB SD card gives you 128GB of space!
Who needs the useless Emojis? It is not that significant.
The "Force close" you are talking about is not from the unit, it is the defect from the application itselt.
It has nothing to do with the performance of the unit.
Even PC applications and programs experience this thing you are refering to as "Force close".
That is why there are softwares and applications updates to get rid of those bugs from the apps.

I'm really disappointed at what the Ip5 has to offer their specs is like from 2011.. its 2012 now and all I can say is apple is the one who has a lot of catching up to do.. These Ip5 Specs are nothing compared to the S3... even the S2 can match up to this specs..
Just my honest opinion..

AnonD-78436, 18 Nov 2012Widgets are not hard to run my dear... Its hard for android... moreIt's not inferior coding it's all about optimisation of system resources, because if you make an OS that only has to work on a single device like Apple does it is much easier to make the hardware and software run together.
But Windows and Android both have to be coded for the lowest common denominator, which means it has to work on the lowest powered devices as well things like Gaming PCs & S3, Note 2 etc, and Google has worked incredibly hard on making optimisation easier for phone manufacturers and anyone who's spent a bit of time on a Jellybean device knows they right up there even though S3 is still running on the old A9 cores albeit 4 of them.
And proper Multitasking is incredibly hard to pull off while still looking smooth while still running a load of Apps, and the Note 2 and soon the S3 will have in December the next stage of multitasking called "Multi-Window" because you can have 2 Apps running side by side on the same screen, and Widgets aren't as hard to do as full Multitasking but it is still very difficult because you can have dozens of Widgets all running and it's able to give you things like constantly updated live news, weather or anything you like really.
And I know for a fact that if Apple ever does add Widgets people are gonna realise just how basic IOS is and all they've done is taken IOS from 6 years ago and keep polishing and most of the features can be achieved by just installing an App.

Anonymous, 18 Nov 2012It's very sad that anyone can actually be delusional enough... moreWidgets are not hard to run my dear... Its hard for android to run them... Its not bout multitasking that makes android look crap in front of iOS, it is its inferior coding...
IOS has achieved superior quality smoothness and robust mechanism even with inferior specs even on mac books which my friend do have multitasking...
The sad part is indeed that how much a user can be delusioned by features, that are not even needed or can be moved around and done, that they bind themselves to it so much and still talk bout freedom...!!

Anonymous, 18 Nov 2012Ha ha ha ha. You speak as if android is ahead... Even with ... moreIt's very sad that anyone can actually be delusional enough not to see Apple leaves out or won't allow a mountain of features that could make the phone better, but they only allow anything if there's a lot of money to be made, where Android developers have almost total freedom and you get almost anything anyone can imagine.
And anyone who's used a phone running Jellybean knows speed and smoothness is almost matching iPhone now, and since multitasking and Widgets are seriously hard to run smooth that is a serious achievement, where because IOS is only single dimensional and only has to do 1 thing at a time and is optimised to run on just 1 phone instead of hundreds anywhere from $70 up then IOS really isn't impressive at all.

I still cant decide if i should buy this phone or not. Im kinda waiting/hoping/fearing that apple will come up soon with an iphone5s. Like when i bought my iphone3g then the 3gs came out. Then when i got my iphone4 the 4s came out.
I ended up buying samsung note 2 which now resides inside my locker as i went back using my iphone.
I dont understand why many people claiming one device is better than the other because of better looking spec sheet. Why not just compare the actual performance especially on consistency and connectivity.

Nobody, 17 Nov 2012Admit it, Apple is dead! Just like Steve Jobs. 1. Its t... moreI have a 64GB iPhone 5. I don't have to worry about saving my apps on my phone cos it goes on automatically. The SG3 phone can't even save apps on the SD card only on the phone - ha ha! The apps are way better on the iPhone. The iPhone has Emojis which are well cool - the SG3 doesn't - ha ha! The iPhone NEVER gets virus' or spam pushed through their phone but SG3 does - ha ha!! The SG3 has to have an antivirus app installed. Oh yeah, when you're on an SG3 you sometimes get Force Close. The iPhone doesn't get that. .

Anonymous, 18 Nov 2012Everyone is free to ignore this troll. For one thing he is ... moreso true. They also accuse ip5 users as being brain washed and only buying because of hype. Accusing apple users of not knowing what the hell they are buying. B.S. All these fandroids do is continue to high jack the ipad4, mini ipad and ip5 pages and non stop attacking apple users, and glorifying how good other devices are, (nexus 10 nexus 4, etc etc, galaxy tab). All they do is attack the product, and critizize what it doesn't have and glorify what XXX has that apple doesn't have.
These Fandroids are also attacking the lumina 920 page now. It's hilarious. Any positive lumina 920 news is posted by gsm arena, for example, (selling out in Germany, running out of stock for Atant) these fandroids or sammy's (samsung fans) just attack the thread! It's unbelievable how gsm arena is allowing this.

BulldogSam, 18 Nov 2012Apple being said the biggest tech company in the world now,... morenot true.
I have no intentions of buying the mac pro, or the mac book pro. No interest at all.
However, I do want the macbook air, and mini tablet line. This has absolutley nothing to do with being brain washed. You fandroids need to really cut the crap that apple has "brain" washed us. I was at the apple store today, a young girl was giving a customer a demo of the iphone5, oh gosh, she made it sound so good. It is a great phone. NO brainwashing at all. These tech reviewers did not say its one of the best phones on the planet for a reason. They are not joking.
Also if we are really brain washed, how come mac's pc line is not doing as well? No brain washing needed. Their products are quality products and by far the best in quality.

[deleted post]Of course criticism is expected, but constructive criticism is preferred. Would you prefer I critique your approach or just come here and call you stupid? PG5Y was pointing out your very negative way of commenting and I agree with him. If I disrespect you and start blasting you in your house, would you be happy?
Think about what I am saying, and use it well. You are annoying many people here.

Anonymous, 17 Nov 2012I haven't laughed so hard in a long time after reading &quo... moreHa ha ha ha. You speak as if android is ahead... Even with taking two steps ahead its nowhere near iOS... Ha ha ha a person like u would never know how it does everything u need smoothly! XD
There are tons of features, useful features, unlike android which simply gives features for namesake useless all in all and to top it up it just experiments on users while introducing a new feature rather than pay the developers... Android are cheap to the core...
