Nobody cares about spec sheets on their phones, except people who only care about spec sheets on their phones. For everyone else, speed is how the thing works in real life. My iPhone 4S is not the fastest phone out there, on paper, but if every app opens instantly and there's never any lag using the thing, why should I care? The things that matter most to me is battery life, that it supports the latest iOS and all the apps I want to use, and I can fit the thing in my pocket.
