EDIT,

Just not worth it.

I have noticed though any image's or videos on the iPhone screen appear more detailed than they do on the S3, I guess this is down to the iPhone having a higher/better PPI count.

An PPI really matters in screen quality.
Yeah but you need a screen for that to matter. Looking at that video it appears that whilst Apple are still able to make massive bezels they still don't know how to do visible screens. And I bet it will be the same old dull washed out type seen on every I Phone since 2007. Apple need to start making premium products to match the premium price tag. Like Samsung.

Well hopefully that is the actual iPhone 5, Just like my TV's/Laptops/PC ect they have all kept a similar look to previous models but massive improvements in power ect.

I just hope it doesn't come like a breeze block with a over sized screen. I'm already leaving this S3 at home when I got out the damn thing is embarrassing to make a call on.


I will keep the much better iPhone 4s until I see the spec's of the iPhone 5 and make a decision from there. I liked the S3 for a day, but I'm seeing its basically junk. No wonder there is already a newer S3 heading to market.

I feel sorry for the poor suckers stuck with the current S3, the one I have is going back its just junk.
Dear Troll, You still haven't actually posted proof you have an S3.

I'm always sceptical of stories from Israel and will not be at all surprised if this is fake. I'm waiting for a leak from California!

Can anyone say troll?

You didn't have any S3. Still waiting for pics of you with it but you wont post them....No surprise there i guess

You feel sorry for me then all you like because whatever you think about the S3, its infinitely better than any iphone will ever be.

I wonder if they will cripple the iphone 5 with underclocked CPU speeds again....
Stay away from T, she's not worth it.

Samsung phones feel cheap to hold.

Apple phones feel great to hold and do not feel like they will snap if you hold it too tightly.

Well it's slick and functional so why fix what isn't broken? Android has only just caught up with it in terms of smoothness. Maybe iOS will be attempting to catch up with Android in terms of features!
When though? It certainly isn't with iOS6 which comes shipped with iPhone5.

No it is not!


And clearly you are just a " Apple" hater .

Apart from the usual crap of " you can customize it" , it is a great phone.

Ugh, you know something, grow up for gods sake. apple hater indeed because i don't like 1 phone. Jesus. Would it help matters if i said i liked the original iphone. Nice design, was fresh, something new? The 4 and 4S are a disaster.

The phone is crap. I had it for nearly 6 months. Its slow, dated looking, horrid to use and really uncomfortable to hold.

That's my opinion

Exactly , your opinion. It is not a crap phone , and is not slow. The look is dated and i agree to that as that is why i did not update from the 4 to the 4s.

Well Apple are in a tricky position in terms of adding features. They are not just up against Samsung but other phone makers who surely hold patents for various features. Maybe if Apple didn't make such a song and dance and tried to sue everyone they probably would have got away with nicking features. As it stands now. The likes of Motorola, HTC, Samsung, LG must hold many patents so if Apple dare nick any of them, I don't think this group woukd hesitate in sending Apple to the courtroom. So expect to see very little change in the software. Probably just refinements a few rehashed features to fool the gullible into making them think there is something revolutionary inside.

Sorry but slow it is. The iphone 4 which my Mrs had was absolutely horrifically slow. The 4S i had wasn't much better. It was nice and smooth sometimes but, go from the first screen to the left search screen lagged like hell. Menus were fine though!

If this really is the new iphone 5 then for a company who has the cheek to say to others they don't innovate, that's shocking!!

Getting back on topic, which is about the iPhone 5 and not the S3 for those who have forgotten.

If this is real it doesn't surprise me. I didn't expect Apple to change the design much. No doubt it will have a beefed up CPU and better display. Plus a few tweaks to the OS and maybe a stand out feature or two.

Actually the cheap plastic feel for the Samsung 3S has been brought up by other people.It is not just my opinion.


It does not have the feel for a £400 plus phone.

The natural in built desire to defend apple against all attacks does confuse people sometimes.

I honeslty do not think that is real as the screen will be larger . Not by much i am sure but it will have a improved screen.


The 5 will be a big update as the S' versions are always small updates .

I didn't watch the whole video, did they compare the size to the current iPhone? Otherwise how do we know if the screen isn't bigger in this video? Or did they say?

That's funny, because I've seen countless iPhones with smashed screens and cracked glass because someone dropped it once....yet I've had a Galaxy S2 and dropped it more often than I should have and it barely had a scratch on it....My Galaxy Nexus feels sturdy and solid....

People claim Samsung phones are made from 'cheap plastic', but they are in fact strong polycarbonates which are far far stronger than the beer bottle glass used on the iPhone which smashes and cracks if you drop it or sit on it.
