does it is really?
I like iphone, and we all know that iphone price is much higher than other brand phones, if that news is correct, iphone will be more popular in hands.
It's happened three times already. Once for the Retina, again for the iPad, then again for the iPhone 5.
I think devs will adapt.
Besides, the market trend on the other end of the spectrum is to have a bevy of resolutions. Apple still only has 4.
Not sure about now, but when the GS3 came out it had a good $250 on the iPhone. The iPhone is up there, but it’s certainly not the most expensive smartphone.

Subsidized a 16gb iphone was as expensive as a 16gb GS3, but full contract the 16gb GS3 was $550 and the 16gb iphone was $650. You wanna 64gb? I believe that was $400 sub, $850 unsub. Apple is always more expensive.
They can make the phone 16 sizes if they want but reality is if they don't do something with iOS they are going to loose even more users. I love the iPhone hardware but already getting bored with iOS. If someone ask if I wanted to trade for the HTC Droid DNA I probably would.

Let's see, just this december HTC released the Butterfly, a 5 inch monster. Sony just announced the 5 inch Xperia Z with a 1080p display at CES 2013...
So yes, it seems the 5 and over inch smartphone segment is more than just Samsung's playground. Now will phablets grow beyond a niche ? Remains to be seen. But don't think it's limited to Samsung.

I doubt a 5 inch phone will be cheaper. This is apple we are talking about.
They need to focus on the design of their ios instead of the exterior.
Srsly where do you think Apple gets the money for walk-in customer service from? Buy from Samsung please and if something is wrong I'd like to see how long it's gonna take them to fix your stuff.
Not true.
I saw the GS3 when it first came out and it was 650as well.
Plus it's 625 now, I sell them like crack at my job.
You mean the DNA that has inferior battery life (ANroid fanboys' words), only comes in 16GB of storage and possesses "world-renowned" HTC's "build quality" (ref HTC One X's wifi/GPS/ Bluetooth/ screen flex/ hardcore screen flickering/ overheating issues, and 8X's body discolouration)?
And dont forget laggy sense.
