      mika, 14 Sep 2012can someone tell me which phone is better overall? iphone 5... moreUntill there's no benchmark out for the iPhone5 there isn't any way possible to be sure how good it is. If you plan to play games the screen's resolution and size will not be game-friendly to many of the games nor it will be to watch movies. SGS3 is a very good phone and but if you own a Mac computer you should wait to see how fast the iP5 is because the connection with Mac is something else. Just don't get your hopes too high.

          mika, 14 Sep 2012can someone tell me which phone is better overall? iphone 5... moreThe Samsung galaxy s3 it's far better phone. . and before people say I am a apple hater. .I had a iPhone 4 and believe me the Samsung is away ahead of apple far more feature s.. they are selling old tech peacetime over the cellular network .. we were doing that 10 year s ago. . panoramic photo s Samsung had that .. Samsung is light years ahead ... why do you think apple is suing them. . as they are a thorn in there side. Samsung all the way. ..

              wow... Even France and Germany where the iP5 LTE will not work - Europe's carriers adopted the 800MHz and 2,6GHz GSM frequencies for 4G both not supported by the iP5... There are much more Apple fanatics than I thought... :S

                      Apple failed to sustain its palace in the market. They decided to withdraw against android .. Trust me if they had the technology to take the edge they would have use it in iphone5 , this was apple challenge and they withdrawn because they have nothing to give or in better way not willing to give to their customers ... They got used to controlling their customers and became obsessed of doing so.. So it's the game of which customers will refuse to stay apple slaves against the ones that choose to stay under it.

                        I wouldn't use it even if I got it for free. Why? My service provider doesn't do nano sims! Atleast for iPhone 4 and S you could cut the existing sim and use it but for the iPhone 5 they say this won't work.

                            iceBirdie, 14 Sep 2012dragon948 how can u say it looks good? as far as i know its... moreYeah I said "arguably the best looking" device. I love the SGSIII just as much as the iPhone.

                            My Pros for both SGSIII and iPhone 4S:

                            iPhone 4S:
                            1. I like iTunes and the Appstore, there's alot of media, apps and games etc. Apps are generally better quality than Google's Play store with alot less advertising in apps.
                            2. You can install 64GB worth of apps if you wanted to (In my case but for others maybe 16GB or 32GB depending on iPhone Size) - I do keep in mind that you can install apps onto microSD on the SGSIII so really its capable of having the same amount or more storage beyond 64GB. However, apps and games will load slower from MicroSD compared to a direct load off the hardrive on iPhone.
                            3. Most speakers, Hi-Fi systems and in car audio systems are directly compatible with idevices, which is really handy.
                            4. Best versions of GPS apps including Tom Tom app runs best on iPhones
                            5. Screen has higher PPI than the SGSIII so pictures and texts look crisp
                            6. Siri is the best mobile assistant to date

                            SGSIII:
                            1. Bigger Screen = Better Web browsing experience
                            2. Better Camera Quality
                            3. 1.9 Megapixel 720P Front Facing Camera
                            4. More flexible file access (Does not require iTunes) on the phone itself, no computer connection required to sort, manage, email or send files via bluetooth or touch share etc.
                            5. More Customizable UI (Instead of the boring iOS - always looks the same)
                            6. Possibility of using NFC function in current and future apps.
                            7. Many useful homescreen widgets to choose from.

I have used the Galaxy S3 as 3 of my friends have it, it's like holding a big plastic calculator with a nice screen on it. There is NOTHING premium feeling about the Galaxy S3. Yes it has a stunning display but the iPhones Retina display is still right there amongst the best. The iPhone feels 100% premium. My 4S feels like a premium handset with premium performance. 99.9 % of iPhone haters have only looked at someone holding an iPhone and therefore hate because they feel they don't wanna be part of a crowd or be a "follower". What rubbish! I used to be an iPhone hater 3 years ago and used to follow what Apple haters used to say. But since using an iPhone I wish I never listened!

                                iPhone haters need to go to an Apple store, play about with an iPhone and then see how good the iPhone is! Apple are that confident of their products that they have stores and products for people to try out!

                                    Apple just strached iphone 4s i think they do not know that there is also one command in autocad called

                                    scale

                                    apple should go to any institute and learn this command and next time use for iphone 5s

                                    i am updating my 4s to ios 6 then it is iphone 5

                                      The advantages of using an android phone over an iphone are so much that no matter what apple comes up with,I aint gonna buy that.Sadly,they didn't bring anything new to the table.
