Except for the part where apple kicked off this patent trolling/suing/banning BULLSH*T. The mobile industry was doing just fine until apple started acting like a spoiled brat and saying "no faaaiiiiiiirrrrrrr they cooooooppiiieed us!"

Lmao, true said®

So - I guess apple customers will have the magical and revolutionary experience of trying - and failing - to send a document via e-mail from a 4.8" device LOL.

I own a 4.8" device. It's called the Samsung galaxy S3. A true Smartphone. Samsung copying apple? Guess it's the other way around.

39. darkkjedii posted on 21 Jan 2013, 04:08 2 17

Dude u know you're an apple fan, just like you've always been. You'll b first in line to get that 4.8 in. iPhone. Lol c'mon get real.

44. ilia1986 posted on 21 Jan 2013, 05:17 11

I'd rather be have my head amputated. Coming to think of this though - the experience will be the same.

55. darkkjedii posted on 21 Jan 2013, 06:40 6

Sure dude ok, but u and I've been coming to this site a lot longer than some of the other people have. I think u know exactly what I meant by that.

85. ilia1986 posted on 21 Jan 2013, 10:06 6

You mean that there was a time when I supported Apple? There was.

But since then I've realized the truth - to put it plainly - Apple sucks. Big time.

87. darkkjedii posted on 21 Jan 2013, 10:21 6

Mmmmm hmmmmm yeahhhhhhh ok

88. PapaSmurf posted on 21 Jan 2013, 10:23 3

Its good to hear a success story from time to time. Bye bye Operation Lockdown and hello to Freedom.

89. darkkjedii posted on 21 Jan 2013, 10:27 4

Meaning???

124. PapaSmurf posted on 21 Jan 2013, 17:32 1 1

If you didn't find the meaning behind my comment, I don't know what to tell you because the answer is right in your face.

i call this BS

5. PhoneUser posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:24 17 3

WOW they are actually catching up to other phones.....Only took them 5 plus years.

18. RaKithAPeiRiZ posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:50 16

and still no NFC

65. jaoowolabi posted on 21 Jan 2013, 08:05 5

So we can touch phones and share pictures!!!!!!!!!! :D

Better late than never hahaha

6. abdane posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:25 24 1

iPhone 5S with polycarbonate body ? HAHA ! now apple fans will say this is plastic, but not cheap... right ? LMAO
and iPhone math ? dafuq ? i think all of this is false.

7. cripton805 posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:26 13 1

If they release something with the name 5s. It will fail big time... iPhone owners are begging for something new.

10. HTCOE posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:28

if it does come out as 5s ppl will already know to wait for the 6 which would eventually be revealed shortly after

20. quakan posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:57 2 2

You better believe it. If they release iPhone 5S instead of iPhone 6 with a big update, then I'll be exploring other options come November.

22. PhoneLuver posted on 21 Jan 2013, 02:21 4

Me too! I've been waiting for a decent upgrade for my iPhone 4.
If there is no change then I'm picking one of the many awesome Androids!

90. darkkjedii posted on 21 Jan 2013, 10:29 5

The iPhone cripton. With an 805 mgh processor.

8. HTCOE posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:27 2

i do believe iphones may have something new to offer this year but idk if it's enough to persuade me to get it over the next nexus device. the xperia z is a great device and the gs4 may be a good handset but i think ill eventually stick with the next nexus hopefully the x phone will end up as the nexus made by moto if not the x phone is sure to be a big contender in the mobile market for sure but again im sold on the 2013 nexus device...wish the best to the iphones tho it would be awesome if the screen size increases it will be a beautiful device indeed

9. jpmcnown posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:28 3

Wait, is this supposed to have a completely transparent design, a laser projected keyboard, and holographic 3d display...... like the iphone 3?

17. RaKithAPeiRiZ posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:49 1

i also heard the next iphone can run 3 operating systems....

30. jpmcnown posted on 21 Jan 2013, 03:07

If all 3 are equal to iOS in functionality, then we can still plan on doing 1/3 of what can be done on most other OS's.

34. jpmcnown posted on 21 Jan 2013, 03:18

Ya know what would be nice, being able to run Windows Mobile via bootcamp on an iPhone. lol

12. soldiernation posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:34 4

I don't believe this. 4.8 inch. Plastic.
And then a 12 MP camera. Show me something I haven't seen already, please Apple.

74. nexusalltheway posted on 21 Jan 2013, 09:08

Apple Please! haha

108. T.R.O.L.L (banned) posted on 21 Jan 2013, 13:54

Let it remain how it is, Apple no needs to innovate®

13. mew7946510 posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:35 2

The weirdest of all news concerning Apple I had ever read! LOL! Apple iPhone Math?!
Maybe he means, algebra? So it will be, Apple iPhone X! LOL! haha..

32. jpmcnown posted on 21 Jan 2013, 03:13 13

Perhaps the math they refer to, is subtracting money from wallet.

47. stychill posted on 21 Jan 2013, 05:36 1

perhaps lol

14. tiara6918 posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:40 4 1

I doubt apple will release a 4.8" iPhone model, they'll still stick to 4" phones for the meantime

16. Android4u posted on 21 Jan 2013, 01:48 11 2

Don't matter... The same old boring ios will still be in the works

61. kboo1995 posted on 21 Jan 2013, 07:54 3 3

27. Joker posted on 21 Jan 2013, 02:57 2 1

Totally innovating: 12MP camera, slightly larger screen size and multiple color plastic chasis.

Calling it now, stocks will nosedive big time

31. jpmcnown posted on 21 Jan 2013, 03:08

40. darkkjedii posted on 21 Jan 2013, 04:11 2 5

The 4.8 in. variant and the gnote 3 will be the only phone that matter to me this year.

43. T.R.O.L.L (banned) posted on 21 Jan 2013, 05:15 2

Same to. I wouldn't mind a 4.4 + iP5s.

56. darkkjedii posted on 21 Jan 2013, 06:41 1 4

Would b sweet

81. kboo1995 posted on 21 Jan 2013, 09:45 2

Yes apple isn't a fan of big screen
But it isn't there choice
It is the market choice

135. T.R.O.L.L (banned) posted on 21 Jan 2013, 18:40

O no, why the "Reds, thumbs down for"....?

41. shamataa posted on 21 Jan 2013, 04:32 5

This is Apple not Samsung!. They would never take the chance to make a 4.8 phone. Its not their way of business. They take baby steps not a leap of faith.

48. lyndon420 posted on 21 Jan 2013, 05:37 3 1

The "math" will probably come with a built-in stylus...and they'll claim to have it first.

72. darkkjedii posted on 21 Jan 2013, 08:59 6

Poor Lyndon, I actually thought u were an intellectual techie, but sadly I see you're the typical childlike android apple basher, that only posts unintelligent sarcastic posts to get lol's, and thumb ups. Tisk tisk tisk
