iPhone 4s VS Samsung SIII - Hands on.

[mustu]

It's people like you who give Apple a BAD NAME!

People that don't have ... or how can I put it? People that want a brand that is popular and considered 'cool' but many others so it makes THEM feel Cool too!

Just live and let live.....let there be other products even if they are better, like the one you have. Don't hate it to try make the one you have 'better' lol.

I have my personality to make me feel cool - don't worry about that... and enough of pride too.... apart from that I have been a Apple user for 9 years.... starting at the age of 25 and I don't need a product to feel cool.

All I am saying is that this phone does NOT FEEL LIKE $700.00 PHONE WHEN YOU HOLD IT IN YOUR HANDS.

SIMPLE.

Android = no bueno

Pentile display = balls

If expectation is the mother of all f... ..s, then why do you expect the next iPhone to be amazing?

Hypocritical much?

I Don't Expect it to be Amazing.... There is a thing called knowledge. I KNOW ITS GOING TO BE!!!!!!

There are no expectations when you know what's coming.

You expect it to be good because previous iterations were good.

Networks expect the Galaxy S3 to sell well because previous versions sold well.

See where I'm going with this?

Get on a tube in LONDON and see how many iPhones you can spot and see how many SII's you can spot that will answer you question very well.

There are only so many iPhones to choose from, but there are hundreds if not thousands of Android phones to choose from. If the only Android phones in the world were the Galaxy S series and the notes, I'm sure they'd be a lot more popular too. If the Galaxy S2 was as popular as the iPhone, then the iPhone market share would be even more pitiful than it is now.

There are hundreds to choose from cause they can't get even one of them right. If they did people would spend some money and buy them like they do for the iPhone. That is the reason they need to have cheaper phones..... so people will buy them - cost being more attractive than hardware/software.

And don't even talk about the software on the lower end model..... forget the hardware.

Oh sorry androids have to deal with the crappy overlaid and over delayed software......

Sorry to hear that but this ship has sailed and it has nothing but an iPhone on it.....

Galaxy S2 and Galaxy Note sales were extremely strong, and they broke records for Android devices.

I'm going to stop replying now because you keep posting more and more rubbish every time you post. You're clearly not interested in facts, just fake information from your Apple bubble.

I never said who sold more phone's you started that. All I said and I repeat again that the feel of the phone in the hands is not as good as it should be for a $700.00 phone.

Don't waste your time arguing with someone who has the maturity of a12 year old and who can't even form a grammatically correct sentence

iPhones are the most overrated piece of tech ever created.

This is coming from a 4S owner. Going to get a SGS3 for my birthday next week.

 

[Vegastouch]

Every review I've read says the s3 is fantastic to hold and curves very naturally with the hand.

Guess you'd rather make things up to suit your argument though.

You are so misinformed it's unreal.

Yep, thats what all the kids do. Play with it for 10-15 minutes, say they used it for a day and didnt use a fraction of the things it can do, Dont know how to get music or how to get another launcher or anything else. And then say it is cheap

Its made of Polycarbon....the gorilla glass of plastic. Ive dropped mine a few times ...once face down on asphalt from 4" up and it didnt break or even crack. Just put a little divit on my screen protector.

----------

Well I was only replying to someone who said it would dent or Crack.

Anyway according to me the SIII not very good. I know various people who have tried it as its crap...

Also its available off the shelf in stores that are selling it with a very few of them saying it will take a day or two to get more stock.... it just shows the kind of demand that the phone has.

Samsung has tried very hard to create a iPhone kind of launch atmosphere for this phone but has sadly failed to do so..... they have to piggy back on the Olympics to market there phone.

I guess this says it all = crap products need to piggy back on good events to achieve a target.

My time with the phone was not very good but that may be just me.

It is time now to look forward to Mid June when and then the launch of the NEW iPhone which is going to be and amazing phone.

Its not even out yet. You can only preorder one in the UK

 

[Vegastouch]

Minus the margin of error and minus how many are for expected replacements.

Same thing goes for iPhones. They order more for that purpose as well. I dont get the argument here. Who cares how many were preordered? Are some of you butt hurt by that? If your not buying one, why the concern? It is launching in the UK first anyways.

Yea but like someone stated, actual sales recorded from Apple side vs order sales on Samsung side. Take a look the several previous posts, that's what I was responding to.

Seems you do the way you came in here with your lousy 1 day review. Pretty sure you still have no idea how to work that phone being a 9 year Apple user.

All I am saying is that this phone does NOT FEEL LIKE $700.00 PHONE WHEN YOU HOLD IT IN YOUR HANDS.

Good thing im only going to pay $199 ....and i wouldnt pay $700 for ANY phone. Thats just crazy.

Are you sure your 34 years old? You dont seem to understand how things work. There are hundreds of them because phone makers want to use the best OS in their product and the best OS available for their product right now is Android which is now a better system than iOS....which obviously is exclusive to Apple.
To say they cant get any of them right and everything else your spewing, you sound like a kid who is mad and wants to take his ball and go home. Because Android phones arent really cheaper to buy. They cost the same $199 to $229 with a 2 year contract as an iPhone and you already said they were $700 otherwise.

You just dont seem to know WTH your talking about. Here is a fact for you....after a two year headstart, Android has passed iPhone in its OS and how many are using them. Doesnt mean i dont like the iPhone, i do very much but they really need to step it up this next release or they face losing a bunch of customers.

You seem to be the one who does not understand things.

No, there are hundreds of them (that is, cheap, crappy Android handsets) because Android is "Free"...well, minus the royalties they now have to pay Microsoft for every handset for patent violations.

There is so little margin in Android phones they don't have a choice. A few bucks here or there is a huge difference.

If Apple mass produced a $150 off-the-shelf iPhone, Android would be through. But they won't, so you're safe. Until those patent violation costs make even high-end Android phones unprofitable.

 

[Sekelani]

When is the release date for this phone??

30th of may.

Apple does mass produce, they just don't make crap on purpose for the sole goal of padding their market base numbers with saturation.

The 3GS is old, not crap. Not the same by any means.

Samsung sells brand new low end turds on purpose.

There is no $150 Android phone either unless you want to buy an older one. Apple has been more expensive than everyone else for years with every product they sell. They can mark them cheaper, they are just greedy. They are made in China afterall like everyone elses and have been caught having their stuff made in sweat shops.

You keep counting on a lawsuit to make you happy, ...whatever reason why that is.....lol.

Its the same plastic you all call crap on the Samsung phones. Wow, such hypocrites.

Your reasoning skills are lacking.

Its not a matter of plastics or not. The Lumia 900 is plastic. As is the HTC One X. Neither feel like they are made by Hasbro.

Ok $179 maybe $199 tops. What do you think the percentage of Android handsets sold and in use $199 and under is? I'd wager it is 90% if not higher. The few geeks who drop $700 on the latest are the extreme, extreme minority.

The new GS3 will cost $199 or $229. That is standard and $199 will be the lowest. The Galaxy S2 is still $229, the One S & One X is $199.
Thats how much a new iPhone costs with a contract so what is your point?
