Lets wait for Anand analysis.

          i dont really hate SG SIII ( i have one) but it should be more smoother with 1.5

          did you see how smooth is iphone 5 ?

          i have iphone 4 ( not 4s because not a necessary update)
          but iphone 4 to iphone 5 i will get one thats for sure

                iPhone 5 - dual core at 1GHz. SGS 3 quad-core at 1.5 GHz. The SGS should have 2(4 vs 2 cores) x 1.5 (1.5 vs 1 GHz) = 3 times better score in an ideal world. But having comparable scores (even if SGS 3 gets 1800 vs 1600 points) shows how well iPhone 5 combines the hardware with software.

                          No it is not... It fails miserably... The newest released phone should outperform every other,but it doesen't,and by the time iphone 5s comes out every android based company would achieve 5 time better results than this iphone.
                          Iphone 5 is pure crap. Last innovative product from apple was iphone 2g
