Don't comment on a product that you have not used for long. Btw, I have used Blackberry, windows phone, xperia arc and now galaxy note but I'm still impressed how fluid iphone is. Way better than my dual core galaxy note.

Even galaxy nexus with outdated hardware when it comes to the games still better than sgs2. IPhone still the smoothest touch phone in the world maybe is lacking some staff that Android has it but still the best.

              All techno things aside, iPhones are a necessity if you want to be a part of the "in-crowd". Other are just geeky outcasts that end up drooling all over Android (yes, I'm takling about myself here), BlackBerry loving business individuals or ones that simply are interested in a different product for one reason or another.

              It's perfectly natural to try and fit in, hence the high sales figures. It just shows we're a community with high influence on each other.

              In Top Gear's vehicle terms: iPhone is like a Lamborghini but High-end Android handsets are like a Nissan GT-R. The GT-R will beat the Lambo in most areas. At the end of the day though, when asked by a super hot chick at the restaurant what car you own, would you rather say "Lamborghini" or "Nissan"?

                Things will change once Nokia and WP7 is back again in the U.S market. Why buy an Iphone when you can't make reliable calls with it. Ignorant people, get an Ipod for apps.

                  Even though Apple sells the almost 2 years iPhone 4(s) with renewed CPU and GPU people still buy it. Why... maybe because of its small size ? Build quality ? Good looking ? I know iOS is the most closed system (well MicroSoft is the same) but still people won't mind.
                  Why ...

                    Iphone sales is based on the high trend and marketing and not quality. It won't last long cos fashion expires.

                            "As you can see, Android may be leading right now as a platform in terms of sales but when it comes to a single handset, the iPhone is pretty much untouchable."

                            This is for all the android fans who compare the whole android against three iPhones and think iPhone doing badly.
