iPhone 5

**darkshark** · 09-12-2012, 05:42 PM

So Apple announced the specs to their new iPhone earlier today, and I'm thoroughly unimpressed in preeeeeeettttyyyyyyyy much every way. I did like their new maps app, which is now replacing the google maps app, but other than that, nothing incredible about it.

So I made this little graphic to show how unincredible it is.

Is anyone out there getting an iPhone 5? Personally don't see it being much better than the 4S. Also the choice to make the screen taller but not wider makes me wonder what the hell they're doing.

I'm going to get an iPhone 5 anyway

Someone better call the Fire Department: Apple just got burned.

I have an S2 and THAT is better than the iPhone too imo.

I liked Apple when they started to become popular. Now my opinion is on the other side of the board. They are just money hungry now. It's absurd they get away with it. They're lucky our species is becoming uneducated. -_-

Will be upgrading my 4 to a 5 when it comes out. I never bought the 4S.

I heard that the plug for the iphone 5 is going to be different than all other apple devices. Forcing you to buy new equipment if you want to use your phone with other devices like before.

p much another case of Apple Showing Up Late To The Party And Also What The Hell Is An "A6 Processor" You Ambiguous Assholes

Aesthetically speaking, it's a great design, but other than that I'm entirely unimpressed. Oooh they finally got LTE oooh a 4 inch screen ooooh fucen A6 processor "it's twice as fast" man whatever. I've got an Atrix from 2 years ago and even IT'S better now that I've got Jellybean running on it

FIRST OF ALL: id like to point out that samsung had the shittiest release of phones ive ever seen. theyre waaaaaay to big. mini tablets.

anyways I dont think the iphone is outdated. theres more to the iphone than people think. the apps are actually really great, addictive &fun, and they got the best app format out of any other phone out there. twitter on the iphone is better than the fukkin website itself (thats pretty big imo). facebooks update for the iphone is great since everyone had been switched over to timeline, also, theres so many benefits like facetime and imessage - just like bbm. The camera is fantastic so nuff said there.Honestly, Its a good phone and theres a reason why its hyped up. i do think that the iphone 5 is kind of pushing it, but honestly its a good phone IN GENERAL and people shouldnt be knocking it "before its even released"

that galaxy is sick as fuuuck tho. :3!!!

I mean as little offense as humanly possible, but you named many things that have been beaten or matched. It's a flop and will only make a profit because it has the name "Apple" on it.

My EVO 3D wrecks the iPhone 5... what a shame

**SCWolf** · 09-12-2012, 10:59 PM

Not a fan of the Android OS. Being a phone salesman, I get to play with literally every new phone that comes out, and honestly my favourite phone OS has to be the Windows 7/.5 OS. It may be lacking in apps, but the optimization of the OS and everything that runs on it is incredible.

Is the iPhone ever going to be worth the money? Not until they give it a reason to have that price tag.

Thatskier · 09-12-2012, 11:19 PM

I had a Galaxy S and Galaxy S2 : I think that yes, samsung makes better phones with better features. I ALSO think that android is glitchy as hell. That is an understandment too. Even jelly bean can be glitchy. If its one think that apple did well is that they have no glitches or flops. It may be the same but its reliable. Hence im buying iphone 5 when it comes out instead of s3

It looks like a lot like other iPhones, will Apple be suing?

_Stepdude_ · 09-13-2012, 09:11 AM

Well I'm not gonna let go of my S3, that's for sure.
