gtel, 22 Sep 2012s2 comes with the free avengers movies and iphone5 come wit... moreS3 not S2 genius....and just because you got a free movie doesn't mean its better than the iphone 5. I'm an S3 user and hardcore android fan but such talks piss me off. Plus Avengers has been out for a while now and don't tell me "not everyone has money" because if you can afford an S3...you could have bought a movie ticket.

Anodized aluminum is known for scratching easily?!?!!? What are you talking about??? I have an anodized aluminum Surefire flashlight (a military issued light) and have put that thing through hell and back over the last 10 years and barely have a scratch on it... minus the one on from it getting thrown against a cement block.

Dont use word - iDea as its patented by apple. Anything start with i is patented by apple. I guess, LTE is patented by Samsung or HTC, so lets see what American court is verdict about it.
I think my forefather invented round tyre, so I should sue every vehicle on planet including flights as they all are using round tyres.......I guess I will be the richest man in mankind.

Anodizing is usually one of the toughest ways of colouring aluminium and steel. This is indication of low quality control. Apple will probably sell rubber housing to address the issue - like they did with the iPhone 4 antenna problem.

I was going to upgrade my N8 to 808 but its too expensive ATM.Yes bought iphone but thats in different league to old Symbian.

It reminds of Tata Indica car which was made from Aluminum and even 6 month old car used to look banger with dents.
