    Look guys what is the main issue of samsung until now? Still plastic, am I right. But what the main issue of apple? No upgrade version still dual core and no multi tasking system,what else very expensive but made in China.wake up guys. Do not up your personality or feeling reach if you have an apple gadget..sometimes look the specs not the brand.

              When Apple had their big hoo-ha about ios7 I told people Apple is trying to target its "Were cool" strategy toward teenagers and girls with its pink and purple fashion show.

              Well, look at these colors and tell me I am wrong. My 19 year old sister cant wait to get one.

                  Apple must be doing EVERYTHING wrong cos they only control 75% of ALL smartphone profits.

                  They should work harder so that they can lower this and archive Android's superior 23%.

How often do the apps and widgets crash? Why does a Samsung Galaxy have a safe mode? How quickly is the Android OS out of date and the phone abandoned by the manufacturer? The fact is Androids are disposable phones that aren't meant to be used for more than one year.

                              geordie81, 30 Jun 2013but your clearly an iphone fan, with limited point of view,... moreiOS 7 will be available for iphone 4, 4s, 5. The iphone 3gs misses out, but it is a 4 year old device. The iphone 4, is 3 years old and is still getting the newest OS, even if some of the features are disabled. This is one of the reasons people like Apple products, it's useable life.

                              Consider any Android phone, once you buy it, you'll be lucky to get one OS update. After 6 months, forget it, your Android device has been abandoned by the manufacturer.

                                    These colors look too bright for my liking then to be matched with purplish playful color of ios7? Are these going to be smartphones for kids? for a low cost iphone, it looks too cheap and material is like plastic rubber.. well it's too early to judge.

                                      Restricted isnt problem for me and for most of people, i have had no problem with any media?, dont know what you mean by that, my iPhone has great connectivity, i can plug any of my music equipment into phone, how cool/handy is that, iOS design is great, customization is not problem for me, file management is skydrive or dropbox, no need for anything else. Poor bluetooth? Never needed bluetooth.

                                      What you just said doesnt matter for 90% smartphone users just like i said earlier, very few people need those. Most people buys smartphone just for doing simple things, jut like people buying pc's, laptops, macs etc. Only very few use even 20% of potential of those devices.

                                        It's because most other phone companies already have low cost devices in markets where high end devices have a small market share.

                                        Apple is getting their clock cleaned in countries like India and China because their phones are too expensive.

                                        This is supposed to be their answer. Wrong answer if you ask me because it's still over priced. Apple needs to realize it can't make 200+% margin on their low cost phones, which is what they're going to make on this one at the prices people are mentioning.
