Phone advice,
Ok the postman(actually city-link but infact the next door neighbor) just delivered this, I was wondering are they any good? CLICK
Any way I have an iPhone 4s already as some of you know so I will now be able to give my full honest unbiased comparisons of the 2. Being one of very few on here that have and can show evidence of owning both .

I'd suggest you pop it on eBay as you have been very vocal about disliking android.
Might be sensible to advise you stop spending your hard earned cash on tech that you don't want !? I thought those linked to education were always striking and complaining they didn't get paid enough and needed more holidays etc ![]() |

Anyway the TAB-7 an S2 are going on ebay, leaving me with just the Nexus7 S3 and my Apple devices. |

So far it feels like a small TAB-7, Not as smooth as the iPhone but I've literally only started it up set it up and set up a Google play account.
Screens very bright though. Although I keep my iPhone screen on a low brightness so will drop this one down to. The brightness is too much for me so I have it on the lowest setting or sometimes on auto brightness. I've had mine for about 2 months now and I still find myself discovering new great features almost everyday lol |

![]() The phone you crave is an iPhone (note it has an Apple rather than Samsung on the back), apparently its a common mistake

Nothing so funny as a spectacularly failing troll thread.
I've just had an iphone 5 delivered early have to say it's a bit rubbish. |

Yes mine was a little sluggish at first, but after everything had time to setup it runs very smooth.

Being one of very few on here that have and can show evidence of owning both .It's also far more flexible in the way you can personalise the device's appearance, and because you can have widgets which work right in front of you, instead of having to tap through icons, it's also a more 'immediate' experience. Add in the facts that more apps are free-of-charge on Android, that you can change out the battery and expand the memory, there's simply no contest. The iPhone 5 is going to have to be pretty damned special to beat it. The downside? Possibly iPhones are more reliable, and the way IOS restricts what you can do with it also makes iPhones easier-to-use, so there will be a bit of a learning curve.(You'll doubtless be finding that out right now.) |

In terms of its capabilities, it kicks an iPhone 4S out of the park,especially its camera and processor.

She had already said she dislikes Android. Why would the S3 change her mind? Verdict: Troll
A free quad core S3 for £26 a month? Its a very cheap way of find out if I can get on with 4.7" screen and hopefully it will get JB soon. But most importantly my opinions on both with be valid. I own iPhone 4s and S3, to be fair its its just like a small tab-7. Keep in mind though I have 7 days i which to return it due to distance selling laws, at which point T-mobile will try to make the contract more appealing I'm sure

Funny you should choose to highlight the camera as both handsets use the same Sony-manufactured sensor.
