              Too bad iOS is out of date and weak maps. The new Lumia 920 is innovation. Has better screen and camera. Turn by turn navigation works offline and Nokia Music streaming all the day long for free. Apps look better on Windows Phone too.

                          the way i see it, the ifans are desperately searching for the light at the end of the tunnel due to the negative issues on ip5 which were not revealed during the press con. map issues, scratches, etc...

                          the ifans think that this is it. this is the light. the benchmarks are good.

                          i hate to break it you ifans, the light at the end of the tunnel is the ip6 or maybe the ip5s. which will cost you another fortune...

                          crApple don't care a damn just cash in on those ifans.

And that other test, you cant tell that in real life. This quad core things? Hohoho.. For me all I want is my phone runs smoothly properly without lagg without freeze and fluidity thats all. And some other features is just a plus. And there's one more I wan my phone to be durable. And I rather choose a phone that has less features that other but when u accidentally drop it its still alive and kicking. Not a phone with full of features and when u accidentally drop it. Boom! All ur features is shattered on th floor. I mean its hard to pick it one at a time and put it back. Lolahha
