And where is the innovation in Android?Or in the latest Android flagships?iPhone 5 is faster than any Android handset on the market.In the latest 2-3 years I didn't see any innovative iOS or Android handset.
The only device that impressed me in last time was the Surface Pro.
Phonearena is full of trolls(iphone/android fanboys).

Smart stay. Smart rotation. Multi window. S-beam.

Those are just off the top of my head, and from one flagship.

I wish they would innovate. It would be better for the industry. I honestly think a "5s" with the same design will make people wake up. Especially with the Galaxy SIV having visual improvements. I can see the Samsung commercials now if the iPhone of the summer ends up being this.

10. PapaSmurf posted on 11 Feb 2013, 07:46 9 1

Apple doesn't learn from its mistakes. Their die hard fans are getting tired of the same old thing year after year. I expect a rise in WP8, BB10, and Android market share this year.

16. binerry posted on 11 Feb 2013, 07:56 0 8

That doesn't make any sense since Apple continuously goes up in market share and user base.

This is what Apple does every year, it's not meant to be a surprise. And "the sheep" flock to it because it works and doesn't lag like Android over time.

21. PapaSmurf posted on 11 Feb 2013, 08:03 10 1

You actually think there isn't lag in iOS?

Nexus 4, GNote II, Xperia Z, Droid DNA, One X+ exhibit no lag. Where have you been?

25. Berzerk000 posted on 11 Feb 2013, 08:26 5 2

Even my GS2 with the "Crapdragon" S3 doesn't lag, and it's nearly 2 years old.

Really? I've worked with the Note II for a bit, and it seemed instantaneous with every action I made. My buddy owns one, and he says it has never lagged on him once. Same thing with the iPhone 5, another friend said it's always responsive and smooth, but he wishes the animations were faster.

WP has always been super smooth, even on my old Radar with a single core processor never lagged on me once.

Then there's a problem with ur Note II. I have mine since October 10th and until now have yet to find lag. There might be stuttering once in a blue moon, but that's it. I have 40+ apps, 5 homescreens filled with widgets and icons, 2 1080p movies, 300+ songs and 100+ pictures.

The 13MP camera, even though Sony, HTC, Samsung, and pretty much every other phone manufacturer is way ahead of Apple.

33. darkkjedii posted on 11 Feb 2013, 09:19 2 1

And why do u feel the need to say that? Who are u waring? Those who don't like apple already feel this way, and those who do like apple could care less cuz they generally enjoy the end user experience. It seems like u say the same stuff all the time, just to b heard. We know u don't like apple, believe me we get the picture. The excess hot air isn't necessary... And I'm not trying to disrespect, or insult u. I just wonder why do u get on every apple related article to say the same stuff, and pretty much what u said on all the other apple related articles...just wondering what your point, or goal is?

Thank u Ted. I am not a fanboy. And will call apple out in a heartbeat if I feel they deserve it, same for el goog. There are things about iOS that I absolutely love, and things I hate. Same goes for android, I have both platforms flagship devices, and since I use both on the regular I can actually accurately credit and criticize them. Darkjedii is a techie, not a fanboy.

37. Berzerk000 posted on 11 Feb 2013, 09:34 2 0

I don't care about the design, I just want them to do something different with iOS 7.

The 5S will probably have a 12 or 13 MP Sony camera, probably an upgraded processor which might be a quad core variant of the A6 with updated graphics to PowerVR SGX544MP3 (hopefully to run the new and improved iOS 7).

If they do make a second larger model to accompany the iPhone 5S (which I doubt, but anything's possible), if the screen size is 4.5+" AND they completely overhaul iOS 7, that'll make it go on my list as a possible next device. The only thing holding me back from the iPhone is the small screen and restricted OS. I have a nice list of possibilities for my next device;

Next iPhone (if screen is at least 4.5" and iOS 7 is nowhere near as restrictive as iOS was before)

Galaxy S4 (if Samsung gives it a quality build)

Motorola X phone

HTC M7

It's going to be an interesting year.

43. jan25 posted on 11 Feb 2013, 11:30 1 0

If IOS 7 is any different from previous versions, i will probably keep my iphone 5. The 5s will only have beefier specs on paper but real life performance will see little to no improvements. the heaviest 3rd games run outrageously smooth on the i5 it doesn't look like any software update will hold it back anytime soon.

I do think believe Google will secure it's lead with Key Lime Pie next May and i will probably get the Motorola X if it didn't disappoint hardware wise.
