hopefully iphone 6 will shut its haters freaking mouth as it always did at the time of release !

android this android that....! you guys seem to compare an iphone released yearly vs one those android vendors release 50-100 models in a year and compare it with its total sales...

tell ur freaking android high end phones builders to release only one model a year and survive in the market....
if it did....that would be the time u can bully apple users...not when 90% of the users use low end android and say crap about apple comparing it to the android phones they dont own..!

Hardwa... moreoh poor you.. smoothness? are you kidding me? as per one of GSMarena's blog post, a review stated that and iPhone app suffers more crashes as compared to an android Phone (btw android phone included both lower and high end phone) and if you only take android high end phones, it will blow off the iPhone!

        Yet this same happened evey year :) last year Apple got 130 million new Apple users and many of them came from android.

        Also why its hard for you to believe? Maybe only reason for many buying android phone in last years have been bigger screen and now iPhone going have that too so they go back to iPhone or buy their first iPhone. Im sure in years many android users have wished bigger iPhone from Apple.

        Android OEMs all scared because they know they arent safe anymore when iPhone 6 comes.

              Oh dear, you poor soul. You really have been brainwashed. If you took the time to read multiple reviews from various sources (professional and personal) of any device, you'll see that what you are saying is very misguided.

                Or it could be people holding off for the mighty Samsung Galaxy Note 4 like I am. I really find it hard to believe that Android users would hold off a decision to buy the S5 or other Android phone because of an iPhone launch.

                    An intelligent tactical move. You dont want to end up with 1000's of unsold devices such as what happened to the iphone 5c.

                                They just have the average joe brainwashed into thinking they are through power, name, and money.

                                IOS is just a limited restricted set up in order to create control, a failed illusion of perfection, and laziness in needing support.
                                Yet despite all that and the fact it only works on a tiny range of devices it has more crashes than any system, has some of the most bug filled releases there is every year, and somehow got heavier even on devices like the 5 somewhat and even the 4s.

                                Iphone is nothing but bought parts mostly based of others technologies, a stolen name, stolen design, stolen ideas, restricted for control/laziness, under teched, over priced, overrated scam of the century.

                                  Even before iPhone 6, LG is also kicking Samsung's butt. Maybe people are just bored of Samsung?

                                    BLEH, 07 Jun 2014Not really wealthy, but I need phones for testing purposes ... moreThe balance of the S5 is not even close to that bad. And definitely does not take lower quality photos than the iphone 5.
                                    Maybe because the S5 is factual overall better?
                                    That's just fact and preferences aside.
                                    If there is aspects in what another phone does better for you or it's specific advantage is what you want then it makes it better for you.
                                    But it does not change the technical facts of what something else can do better as a whole and or in general.

                                    You like the balance of the Xperias or Iphones pictures better. I like the overall better photos of the S5.
                                    And actually many shots have shown that the S5 is one of the best devices for handling bright situations.

                                    So either you made that up, you had some bad luck, or you pre judged it in favor of something else.

I definitely agree iphone 5 and most especially iphone 5s take better pictures both indoors and night indoors (daylight as well). The only complain i have with ios is the lack of control on the camera. Xperia Z1 and Z1c are excellent in low light but not so in indoor night with good lighting. Iphone shots does it right in auto but Xperias are 50-50. Samsung night shots indoors at good light okay(still bested with by the iPhone) but worst at lowlight. I know because i am a tester too for a local blog here.
