IPhone 5?
IPhone 5? What do you guys think of this phone?
I have the Galaxy S3 right now, theres some good and bad things about it. I have been a IPhone user for ever and decided to jump ship when the S3 came out. Now I am wondering if I should give the IPhone 5 a shot?

LTE puts it back on the same level as the Galaxy S3
There are good things and bad things about all these phones, so it all comes down to personal preferences. I'm very happy with my Nokia Lumia 900 and will get the 920 when ever they come out.
Never had an iPhone myself, but my wife has had them the last few years and even though she is not any kind of Apple cheerleader, or anything, it still seems to be tough to try to get her to try something else. Women...
So... I ordered her iP5 on 9/14 to replace her iP4 and it will be delivered on Friday. Seems like there are some features that will be interesting to see how they work.

Phone typing on now is ip4, best phone I've ever used. Most def looking to get the ip5
I don't care if people say its too trendy or whatever else they want, phone is super friendly and feels designed well, a glitch once blue moon.
Every other phone I have had the thing in and out of repair or new replacements.
Only I'm not excited about like everyone else is the phone screen getting bigger, which makes the phone larger, I don't feel apple needs to compete with other phones if the quality is there, plus it's a "phone" you want to watch movies buy a iPad

I fought off the Iphone craze untill last November. Bought an 4S and now understand peoples allegiance to them. Fantastic phone. Previous phones were Samsung Instinct, HTC HERO, HTC EVO4. IPhone 4 beats the **** out of them.

My S3 will be here in the morning.Selling my Iphone4S if anybody wants to buy it.Reason im leaving apple is the S3 is simply a better Phone.The Iphone 5 was supposed to be the mother of all phones and really instead of being the best in the industry its just the best Iphone 
Pre-ordered mine and pick it up Friday. I am upgrading from the iPhone 4. I love mine and don't see me switching to anything else. The main reason I like the iPhones are iTunes and how user friendly they are.
Now... I don't know if it just me or if anybody else has had any similar experiences, but IMO the whole iTunes stuff and the way Apple has made many things work on the phones and other devices, sometimes seems a bit complicated.
Even though I have never had an iPhone and I'm not an Apple fanboy, I do have an iPod and iPad 2, so it's not that I want to start Apple versus something else arguments here. Just stating my observation... And like I said, maybe it is all in my head...

The gf wants the Note/Note 2. Is it really that great? I think it's too big (although it's not much bigger than the S3). Sell me on it, so I'll agree to let her get one. lol.

Kind of interesting you bring up the point other people tend to bring up, too: user friendliness.

So the Galaxy just updated last night for me and it seems to be much smoother. I have had issues where the internet just dont work at times even in good service. Also the phone sometimes just stops, locks up, and restarts out of no where. Maybe this update fixed it. We will see.
