AnonD-51228, 17 Sep 2012Why did my comment get deleted? All I pointed out was that ... morewhoaw! Now that you've pointed it out, I agree with you. AT&T said "fastest selling iPhone" not "fastest selling phone". As a daily reader of this site, I smell something diffrent here. And as they quoted AT&T's statemet, it should've been only at:
"... on its first day of preorders and over the weekend."
but they included: "iPhone 5 is still available for preorder ... " which goes beyond the topic. Is these part of Apples marketing??
P.S: I hope my post should not be deleted. All persons have there opinions. :|

What is NOT in the box or on the pre-order forms
GSMarena comparison IP5- v-IP4S
TWO new features are on iPhone5 NOT on the iPhone4S
i) LTE
ii)Simultaneous HD video and image recording
and if you include the A6 chip to make thing go a bit faster, THREE NEW FEATURES.
http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=4910&idPhone2=4212
And BTW it was 4 things again that took the Iphone4 to a iPhone4S
Dual Core
Siri
World phone (both CDMA & GSM)
and that A5 chip

Like the compromise of leaving out NFC due to the aluminum back of the device?
Like the compromise of a 100% carry over camera module from the iPhone 4s because thinness was more important then putting in a larger module?
Yeah, Apple is all about leading edge technology and not about COMPROMISING for the sake of making it pretty.

Joe, 17 Sep 2012Throughout the comments on gsmarena all I see is "Sams... morePlastic body ? It's better for reception,htc phones always had problems with reception.Pentile ? you won't notice it unless you put the phone RIGHT INTO YOUR EYE,I would rather have the better black levels and the vivid colors of the AMOLED screen.UI ? Touchwiz is better than any UI out there(except pure android),at least it's the lightest and got a lot of nice features like smart stay and motion controls,unlike htc sense which is too heavy that htc f*cked up multitasking on their phones and made it similar to the iphone's.And with the s3,you get better battery(also removable),better performance,better camera and a micro sd slot.

This might be true..cause only Apple lovers are going for them. Got to imagine being an apple fan..1 phone model every 1 or 1 and a half year...that is a long wait. Of course you will be desperate to get the new one because every bum in town has an Iphone(he knows no better either by the way...just heard the name and hype) so you are tired of having that model.so you will pay over the odds to get the new model and apple got you covered in every way. but seriously...did you Apple fans stop to think that you are probably not buying the best product out there anymore? But why should you care right...you got an apple which you will probably use to call your friends and send sms..may be surf a little. The rest is just useless to you. You need a status Brick and IP5 is your new demark in society...for while until joe sixpack gets one too.

Why did my comment get deleted? All I pointed out was that the PR statement specifically said fastest selling iPhone, not phone, contrasting with the title of this article.

didn't samsung gs3 have 10m preorders?
so 2m is much less then...
no matter which phone, this can easily just be a marketing game to drive up the sales. this is the same story/game that is played everytime a new iphone comes out. unless a third party can validate in absolute number terms, it's just anybody's guess until the numbers are officially reported/reflected in their 3rd quarter financial reports. until then,... phone bcompanies can play the game/numbers anyway they want to drive the "perception" that their phone are selling really well so you should buy one sooner than later... oh the marketing...

I currently have a Samsung Wave 2 probably the best value for money ever. Does everything and has a fantastic clear screen. Its never missed a beat in year I have owned it, except cant load Watsapp text messaging, but hey @ the equivalent of $23 per month on a 2 year contract who cares.
The American public in general is a strange lot..
For example, they go crazy queuing up to buy Electric Hybrid cars to show how they are doing there bit for the global warming especially the Toyota Prius. buying 122,316 in 2012 alone (In the U.S., typically Toyota’s top market for Prius, sales jumped to 56% of total world sales)
Ironically research shows that these same people would have to drive a Prius 369109 kms (about 15 years before they start saving any gas money. But in America the culture is as soon as you have enough of the thing, just scrap it and buy a new one..
Now they cant wait to get there hands on a iPhone 5 one of the most expensive phones in the world, I wonder how that’s helping global warming? Basically the average American consumer contines buy crap they don’t need with money they don’t have. Go figure…
