The SIII is too big for me as well. Though the rumour mill suggests, against Steve Jobs' will, the gayPhone 5 will have a bigger screen, seeing as Jobs has pegged it.

Indeed... And if it is badly integrated it will mean I won't go for a 5 ;) I want something usable and easy to hold with one hand :)

Well i have just ran away from crApple after being with them for two or more years .
I jumped into the Samsung Galaxy S3 and so far i can say i havent noticed any "bugs".
The phone in my opinion is far better and will remain far better than even the iphone 5

Just my opinion though  ::)

For me the S3 is just too big... It's a bit like carrying a mini tablet around ;) I had a HP IPAQ years ago and I thought technology has moved on ;)

I will confess that when i first got mine i thought it was too big but you'd be suprised how quickly you get used to it  :y

TBH, I give all the guys working for me iPhones because that gives them the complete package - Phone, Sat Nav, Tracker, Job Management etc. Because I already have the licences for TomTom on iPhone I will certainly be staying with them ;)

Most people agree this is the new iPhone shape & design:

The number 5 is likely to be ditched, like latest iPad Apple just call it, "The New"

Seeing as how the microphone packed in on my iPhone 4 just the other day (fixed now thanks to a bit of cardboard wedged inside the case ;D) I might be tempted by the 5.. maybe..

Go on treat your self  8) :y  Their only £500 or more depending on how much GB Space you require  :y
And the beauty with apple i find is if for some reason you don't like the product you have 2 weeks to decide and get it collected free for full refund ;)

£500, that would pay my rental for over two years including the basic android phone!

What a rip off.......and Tunnie STILL thinks Apple give away the software for free, me thinks he needs to look at some business cases.....its like me at work, I give the hardware away for free...... :y

I know where my vote is regards screens.

A lot of IPhone 5 info seems vague but just found this.

Screen
iPhone 5 - 4in IPS, 1,136 x 640 resolution

Am happy with my Galaxy S2

Type    Super AMOLED Plus capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors
Size    480 x 800 pixels, 4.3 inches (~217 ppi pixel density)
Multitouch    Yes
Protection    Corning Gorilla Glass
    - TouchWiz UI v4.0

But if tempted to upgrade my 2 choices are below.  :y

Samsung Galaxy S3

Type    Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors
Size    720 x 1280 pixels, 4.8 inches (~306 ppi pixel density)
Multitouch    Yes
Protection    Corning Gorilla Glass 2
    - TouchWiz UI

or the Galaxy Note

Type    Super AMOLED capacitive touchscreen, 16M colors
Size    800 x 1280 pixels, 5.3 inches (~285 ppi pixel density)
Multitouch    Yes
Protection    Corning Gorilla Glass
    - TouchWiz UI v4.0

personally I'm huge fan of htc and android. Had htc phones for past 3 yrs and haven't had a problem at all, unless you count dropping it down the stairs and shattering the screen!! Have heard nothing but complaints about iphones so just stayed away from them

The review is rubbish anyway, but good indication of what they are launching.

I'm hoping to get one, for free from work  :D

Also get unlimited bill, which I don't pay for  :D

Useful when on holiday abroad  :-X  ::)
