Apple iPhone 5 review: Laws of attraction

28 September 2012
The iPhone 5. As in five million units sold over the course of a … weekend. Can't say no to that. This is the latest installment in the smartphone series that changed the mobile phone industry and we can understand people couldn't wait. Now, what is it they couldn't wait for?

have booth phones, and i have to say iphone 5 is 3 times better than galaxy s3.

- why have quad core when usual task are so slow.
- why have SD card and much storage space when there are such bugy & slow aps ? (business apps no games)
- why have such huge screen when i rather use Iphone for browsing becouse of bad feeling when typing on Galaxy S3

I have two phone numbers (bussnies and private) and use booth phones everyday.

galaxy have just feew apps clean instal at 12:00 batery is on 60% with few calls

iphone on 18:00 pm is on 50% with active usage.

my conclusion, galaxy is for kids

bye

            Anonymous, 17 Oct 2012its true iPhone 5 has the best screen in businessSeriously.. what facts you consider to say iPhone has best display.. HTC and Nokia Lumia already launched better ppi rate, more than so called retina display. Nokia has highly sensitive capasitive display you can work with cloths on. again Nokia has reputation for best out door visibility. Samsun, HTC equaly good in fluidness of transitions with new OS's. Just don't make Fanboy comments. The fact is iPhone 5 lacks innovation and they are taken by supprice with number of Innovations competitor offered.

                      iphone 5 is oke, the problem is the software, its kind of limited you. but if u only using it between your home or work. then its oke.. if u use it to travel then big problem, bc this phone not friendly to offline conditions. and cannot crossplatform. and the biggest set back is the notification is lacking a lot.

                              I have seen a 100 drop tests indicating otherwise.. so your assumptions are garbage.

                              Also, are you comparing to anything else? The iPhone 5 screen appears to be better than any high end android device at the moment.

                              Troll. Its good for you.

                                      Pach, 09 Oct 2012this represents a one generation leap not two like in the c... moreUsing my logic,
                                      its 4S -----> 5 and
                                      its SGS2 ----->SGS3.

                                      This is what I think is normal.. generation versus generation.

                                      Mind you although SGS3 has a great CPU.. 4S still has better camera and better graphics card so for many this is amazing an older phone can compare with the beast of SGS3.

                                      iPhone 5 graphics is too strong.

                                        Pelipe, 12 Oct 2012What you think about those IFA/IDFA features in iPhone5? Co... moreSO this is a feature of many "prior art/patented" feature phones including the Motorola Atrix.
                                        SO you steal XEROX GUI. Claim it as yours. Sue Microsoft for "stealing "your ip( remember,XEROX conceptualized this then brought it to market)"! And now patent someone else'( XEROX ) already utilized tech.
                                        Almost as bad as Apple's "using" HTC's Patents in your LTE devices, ( and earlier tieing up HTC's products in customs here in the States. For weeks.
                                        Apple's new slogan should be the Teflon company. Nothing sticks. They get away with anything.
