                  All apple product are great! Apple's all OS are stable. No need to compare with any other brand. People who use apple product won't back to other brand. Useless to comment anything about bad apple product. You guys can't get BMW car with cheap Chinese car price!

                    zinco, 17 Dec 2012There's no doubt you know nothing about mobile computing. B... morethey won't get it. it's either that's what they really need, or they will defend that that's what they really need.
                    hating is a bit too much though i admit.
                    apple fans don't use "simplicity" too much, some might think it means simple minded.
                    to each his own.
                    use ur phone as a smartphone and not a status symbol.
                    social status is so overrated.

                          use things and love people instead of love things and use people. people nowadays are too materialistic. they forget the real value of life.

I like what I like because I'm not you, can you get that into your little head? I beg to differ on your opinion of why Apple & ios is better than my android. I offer compatibility & continuous innovation to the boring & stagnant os you love so much. FYI I use a Samsung galaxy note.

                              I think eveyone forgets apple is the Bentley of mobile phones lol. You can release what ever you want and even say it has this and that but let's be honest if you wanna have the best you go for the apple. Look at every device released by android last year and even some from this year and you'll notice there resell value is rubbish, then you look at iPhone and I'm not being funny I swear the iPhone 4S sells better if not more then all of them put together. That is value for money and this is why you buy a iPhone. Oh and I need I mention things like iOS updates or not even really feeling the need to upgrade. I'm got my iPhone 5 because its the best thing out and will be no matter what is released. I have a ipad mini cos it is the best thing out not being funny but in a year say that about your android device whichever one it may be.

NO one of apple users will want to own a galaxy s3 or a note 2, they simply do not like it, because if they want it, they can easy buy it instead buying apple. it is useless to explain to an apple customer what are the advantages of note 2, he/she simply do not want to hear about it,to hold it in the hand because is big,ugly and tasteless

                                  but is it worth every penny? i don't think so

                                  here in Indonesia 16gb iphone5's price is $900
                                  very ridiculous

                                  my galaxy note 2 (which is more powerful) is only $700

                                  i do want an iphone5, but i think i'll pass

                                    AnonD-45647, 17 Dec 2012i honestly think 90% of ppl buy this jus for the apple logo... moremany of iphone users buy it because is the smallest,cutest,tasteful product on the market. other buy it because it is simple to use it, to make a simple phone call,and they are doctors,lawyers,construct engineers and do not care about ppi or amoled anymore,they are very far from the geek world of gsmarena forum. other buy iPHONE for IPHONE'S MUSICAL FIDELITY AND POWER THROUGH HEADPHONES OUTPUT LIKE ME and because itunes offers me the best way to add songs directly to a new playlist and because of the easy icloud maintanace for notes,calendar,CONTACTS. iphone is a perfect tool for anyone. android is twisted,complicated and in general is running on very ugly and tasteless devices. except motorola razr maxx and sony xperia maybe...
