I use an s3 And i just bought my son an iphone 5. Both are great phones,. not sure why so many have to start the "this is better than that" argument.
Plastic or aluminum? Simple as that
----------
At least the S3 doesn't come prescratched/predented! LOL @
Nope, it has Android.
some dude said the next GS will surpass the iPhone 5... well not **** sherlock... hahahah the thing is samsung releases a new galaxy every 6 months not every year like Apple does.

It comes with TouchWiz and pre-plastic-crapped.
Uh oh, some people are mad. LOL @
Not mad at all. I enjoy my iPhone. I also enjoy my S3, but I find the iPhone to be superior. That being said, I'm not trolling on android forums, yet you are trolling here?
whatever it takes to get the fandroid trolls claiming 'apple is playing catch up' to shut up. I guess you are butthurt?
it's funny cause now the fandroids are coming up with some other stupid reasons why the iphone sucks
Specs don't matter as much as some people scream about. For example, the international sIII is quad core. Yet the i5 beats it. Or the American SIII has 2GB of ram but the i5 performs faster. Specs mean nothing if the software is not optimized to run with the hardware.

Butthurt? I just got my iPhone 5 yesterday.
In the end, you got a slightly faster 4in skinny wiener screen that looks like it did in 2007...

because having it wider makes it more innovative. got it.
Owned S3 for 3 months till I sold last week and iPhone 5 since yesterday.
Both are great in their own way.
Even if one did destroy the other what would that prove? Nothing.
Those that love iOS will continue to buy iPhones. Samsung lovers will buy Samsungs.
I see it like Lambo vs Ferrari. Average user will never take use it to it's full potential, and most roads don't allow you to push it like that anyway.
Really pushing the processor running angry birds space.

Darn, I was hoping to have a civil conversation. Guess that won't happen...
Um the i5 is consistently scoring over 1600 guy. Not only is it scoring higher in specs but also drop tests. Also it doesn't look like a plastic toy that came out of Mexico.
And then when better Android phones come (LG Optimus G in a few months) that may lose to the iPhone 5, I wonder how many of these same people will be saying "eh, benchmarks aren't important."
It's usually the same deal with specs. If the competition has better specs, "Specs aren't important / The iPhone doesn't need better specs." But if Apple has the best specs, "Eat it, competition!!"
Ditto the weight argument. Before, it was "I like that my iPhone has some heft to it. Makes it feel premium." Now that it's lighter, "Ha, the iPhone is lighter than the competition!"
Having said that, kudos to the iPh5, not just for the benchscores, but for passing drop tests with flying colors. I'm sure the lightweight-ness has a lot to do with it. Definitely takes away from the GS3 argument that we need plastic to survive drops. I think it's time Samsung (and other Android manufacturers) start paying attention to better build materials.

Everyone will always contend that the phone they have is better. Most are locked into a two-year contract and only wish to see information that justifies their purchase.
This is true of iPhone and Android owners alike. Believe me; I've been both.
