      look it's all bull. couple of days ago the benchmark results of iphone5 came and it was barely faster then the new motorola razr i and nobody was mentioning that it's nowhere near quad core devices they were just saying that it's amazing how fast it is because it's nearly as fast as dual core on 1.5 ghz. so nobody cared about the iphone5 and now suddenly new results and it's the fastest. lol. every iphone that comes up is the fastest and then when you use it the pages take forever to open and battery lasts 4 hours.

So, is Foxconn to take blame for Apple maps as well then!!!! I think not! Apple ALWAYS has a problem when a new phone arrives! They take the credit and always blames and sue others when something goes wrong! What go around comes around!

That's why they let glitchy iOS five get released, this defect with chipping, why there was the antenna issue, why everyone I knew who had the 4s had to get a replacement. Because Apple checks for quality and then foxxcon goes and jacks it all up at very last second to make Apple look bad.......yeah...

                              The problem is the contract manfactuer FoxxCon who failed to comply Apple's standard during mass production.

                              So, it is very obvious FoxxCon should be blame for this incident.

                                  btw why did they downgrade the edging? the antenna issues were rectified with the 4s.. to make it lighter? nahhh was a good excuse though ;)

                                    Contract manufactuer FoxxCon should take full responsibility for such defect.

                                    You should complain to FoxxCon and not Apple.

                                      Lolhaha, 23 Sep 2012Yes there's many other but did you see some of the others? ... morebro ignorant much? have you actually looked at the results??? it is a detailed look at GL/ Browser marks thats it...there have been no other comparisons between any of the other benchmarks besides gmsa stating previously that the ip5 doesnt quite reach the overall performance of the s3 running ics and geekbench where the ip5 doesnt come close.. the only other comparison i can only assume your talking about in this article is between the 4s and the ip5..
                                      durable??? youve see one test where the s3's screen cracks from being dropped from a good hight (btw check it out on youtube, ive found plenty of vids where the ip5 screen cracks from a single drop test).. but even so.. id still rather that than a phone that gets chipped/scratched from just sitting in ones pocket
                                      its been emotional lol, take care
