    Original iPhone was great. Now the iPhone 5 is just overrated. It's a generation behind the Lumia 920 in hardware.

      [deleted post]cheap yet wont get scratched off.... furthermore, Android doesnt live around Sammy only, there r HTC etc who make very good looking phones.... taste is subjective but to me, functionality always>looks! u own both and if u really know how to use Android, then u would know Android functionality>iPhone.... yeah, their graphic is better, more games etc but games is not my only concern and i have enough in Play Store to keep me happy, not to mention the easiness of sideloading apps.... if u use Prada (LG) as ur benchmark for Android, then u need to open up ur eyes, cuz LG sucks, trust me, i own an O2X but Android is much better than iOS based on functionality....

        'Smurf, 24 Sep 2012I'm not the biggest iPhone fan, for a few reasons, but well... moreThis is the legacy that Steve Jobs left after his passing. He created a cult with million followers and thus ensuring the future of HIS company. Apple is not the same without him.

          5 million rich people who dont mind buying an overpriced phone with faulty map and have something they call scuffgate problem.... economy crisis? neh, they just rather eat less and have a black coloured phone which will change to silver for show.... congrats to Apple and to those rich people for selling so many phones and paying way over the top. congrats!

                    Verge doesnt agree with you: "The iPhone 5 is unquestionably the best iPhone ever made, and for the mass market, it's the best smartphone, period."

                                  I'm not the biggest iPhone fan, for a few reasons, but well done to Apple for this. It proves that a brand name is often more powerful than the actual product.

                                  If they put an Apple badge (and associated price tag) on a budget Windows phone, it would still sell beyond all reasonable expectation.
