But really in the end, ios operates much better then android on any device. Props to them too, the note2 have some very very cool features, like note taking, diary taking, some really really cool widgets. But really in the end, Ios is a much better os then Android. It really is. Apple fully developed the ios to operate and it's max potential, and integrated it's apps to the ios flawlessly. It's really no comparison when developers tell you, that they much rater develope a app for the ios vs android. It's that much better. Problem free. jb.4.2 might be super smooth, but because it's an opened based software it will never catch up to the ios. This is why people will cointinue to buy iphones. It's easy to use, the average person is only doing the following.
making and taking calls
checking emails
surfing the net.
Maybe watch youtube.
apple is made the following things a top priorty, and you can do any of the above with an ip5 with ease an no issues. While its competitors have added a bunch of features, the average person is just making phone calls and checking email. A lot of the stuff is pretty much not used that often, thus apple has filter those things out. However I do expect apple to make a bigger screen for their ip6. They really have no choice but to make a phone with a bigger screen.

Apple was never the biggest, its just that their models are always the most sold on the planet. Samsung releases one new phone every hour, of course they are number 1. Also the S3 barely outsold the ip4s in the time it was released, (6 months) because 6 million other people were waiting for the ip5. Apple is not going down anytime soon, as they are they are the most profitable electronic company. But give props to the S3, it is the most popular phone on the planet. Right now it's a 2 phone race s3 vs IP5. I think once ip5 is fully released in 100 other countries as it's scheduled too, it will be number 1. China is still waiting for this phone, and other countries.

This is ne... moreYou right, Android and especially Samsung massively outsells iPhone on amount of devices sold and 1 thing I do believe in is democracy, because a huge majority of people chose Android and right at this moment the S3 is outselling the iPhone 5, and if you count the other high end Androids that cost about the same as iPhone 5 that means the people have spoke and given a equal choice they'll pick an Android device because it is simply the best.
But with iPhone it's just the wealthy minority that have the most power because sadly money does equal power, and they spend all that money on Apple devices without even thinking which makes Apple the richest, but like I said the people who have the money but are able to make their own decisions mostly go for Android because it is the best choice.

Claire, 13 Nov 2012Yeah, well done. I totally agree with you. I've got both th... moreI totally agree, the iPhone 5 is one of the most popular and best phones in the world. Using emails on iPhone is simply wonderful, and much quicker to come through. The camera is so much easier to get to, and taking pictures in low light is better on iPhone 5. There are more better apps on iPhone, with no adverts/spam interruptions at all coming through to the phone. I noticed with the Samsung Galaxy S3, you cannot move apps onto the memory card. And if there was an app, why should we have to download it when Samsung should've thought of this themselves. When using apps on the SG3, sometimes they would Force Close which isn't very good. iPhone/iOS has the best security system, as you cannot get viruses. Android loves Malware, and is more complex to use. So, that's another app you would have to download for the Android phones via Google Play Store. Why should we have to do this??? Apple has thought of everything, when it comes to stability and security of their operating systems. By the way, I do have both phones so I know what I'm talking about. To conclude, I would definitely recommend any iPhone (particularly the iPhone 5) to anyone who wants a good reliable phone (even the BlackBerry phones are better than Android).

I've got both the SG3 and the iPhone 5 and I prefer the iPhone, even though I do like the SG3. It is so stable, more secure, no annoying ads pushing through my fone, whereas it did with the SG3. And the apps are so much better. If you want a funky fone go for the SG3.

carter, 13 Nov 2012thats a deep phone for real.laptops will be faced out soonAndroid users don't need a laptop because their phones can do everything they ever want, but iPhone users still need a laptop for the huge amount of things their phone can't do.

As a former Samsung user i have seen how both of these phones work. Yes you can do more with the android phones such as personalise them which you cant with apple but at the end of the day they are both just phones.... they are both phones. people buy which ever they prefer i have always used a samsung but bought the ipone 5 and i think its great. yeah yuou pay for apps but you get the full version instead of half versions full of ads...
i think everyone here should have a go of both phones before they start making all these stupiud comments that this phones rubbish this ones better....they are all great phones and the only reason people slag them off is because they havnt got one.
not saying thew iphone is the best thing in the world but it is a good phone... so is the galaxy S3 its all personal opinion.. this is a REVIEW site not a slagging match...
sort it androiders.

Why all this hating on ip5? Its all about taste and how deep ur pockets are.apple never put a gun on anyone's head to buy it-instead ppl camped waiting for it-its no doubt those talking ill deep inside would want to have it,but just cant-$$:-( im still an android fan though..

Everybody seems to be anonymous in this forum "Eish" I must say it is only in this forum where users are not given the chance to express beauty if not the ugly part of their experience with this phone. Whining and trolling won't help except exposing you to be immature especially commenting while you don't use this phone...

It doesn't affect apple haters bcoz android is on the lead, you know apple can be the best phone manufacturers in the world if they will make an entry level and mid range phone they should stop the iphone era as if theres nothing new as well they should develop more and thats why more people are switching to android bcoz the ios 6 features are not new to us thats why we are bashing apple
