Anonymous, 04 Dec 2013Seriously, it's a rather nice phone. If you play with it... moreI've had an iPhone from 2007 until 2010, the experience is rather antiquated to me, it's sad seeing it still kicking almost unchanged since then. I honestly don't see what people see in it, it was a great for 5 years ago but by now it's old.

It's like driving a 60s car , it feels great if you come from a 30s car (dumbphones or low end droids) but it's nothing like a 2010's BMW (nexus). It's middle of the road experience, nothing too great nothing too bad...

      Hey you guys don't knock Apple! They are shortly going to launch a thing called a "Phablet". It's a revolutionary concept that's half way between a phone and a "mini" tablet and will have a [gasp] massive 5.5" screen! And... glimpses of the iPhone 6 show it with a 4.7" screen. There's simply no end to this market leaders innovation!

      I do expect these devices will be shamelessly copied though, and those copies passed through a JRWF (Jobs Reality Warp Field) into the past to subvert our valuable patents, and steal all the billions we've put in to developing things like rectangles with rounded corners. This might get past a jury outside the ol' USofA, but it sure won't fool a US one for more than a dang tootin pi-co-second.

                I have not found the iPad to be really useful for everything I do. The mistake is thinking the iPad can do more than what it really can and getting sucked into the marking hype. It is nothing more than akin to a cheap second car, but will never be a main car (laptop replacement). Never rely on your iPad to do the job of a laptop. Toy for kids is fine for internet access, but thats it far I am concerned. Waste of money for what it can do.

                                    If you play with it it is well designed and it feels better and more "premium" in the hand than most Android products.

                                    It's like designer clothes: K-Mart shoppers will never get the appeal.

                                    And it's not a 4S, but I suppose you have never seen or held one.
