Which phone (not bike this time)?

[Pogo2]

Time to upgrade the phone, so might as we get a good one eh!

Samsung Galaxy S3 (released a few days ago) or a iPhone.

Never had android or Apple product before, although I'm no luddite(I think)

Reviews seems to suggust that the Samsung is better especially with the ability to fit another battery if the old one craps out.

Any thoughts from the tech savy KB'ers?

Thanks in advance!!

If you want your phone for anything other than making calls or sending texts, then get the 1 that looks prettiest. If you don't, then it's time for a drink and drug fuelled hooker night.

Myself and the missus have both owned Samsung Galaxy phones for the last year (I'm not sure which model). For some reason my phone works great and I've never had any problems with it. The missus on the other hand has had problems with poor cell phone reception and emails not refreshing even when we are in the same area and my phone is working perfectly fine. Very weird.

Buy the Galaxy S3. It's the best phone ever.

iPhone, if you want something tried and trusted and that will be still working a year on.

Wait 2 weeks for WWDC to see what the specs on the iPhone 5 will be. Then decide if you can wait for it or if you're happy with the SGS3 with its pentile display

end of.

In the end it really comes down to personal preference but some reasons why I didn't get an Iphone and got the Galaxy S2 instead:

• It's an Apple product
• No flash support
• No micro SD card slot
• Can't remove the battery
• It's an Apple product
• Required a new micro SIM (so will the new Galaxy S3)
• Smaller screen size than the Galaxy S2
• Don't like the whole Itunes thing
• It's an Apple product.

The Galaxy S3 is a far superior phone in almost every way compared to the iPhone. The whole business model of the Apple corporation is to sell sub standard products with a fancy case on it, and charge double than competing products in order to lead ignorant fools into thinking that they are purchasing a superior product.

The Android platform is far better than iOS, Android is open source after all, and Google doesn't tell you what you can and can't do with your phone to the same extend as Apple. Having a look at the Apple computers on their websites is enough to put me off the brand due to their unethical business model.

Apple and Harley Davidson have a lot more in common than you might think. They should build a bike together.

The iPhone has the best camera. Marginally.

Shit do you know me? iPhone 4s and Harley. If they did what you suggested it'd be he best bike it the world but would sound like crap!

try em both in-store see which u like best (feel, look, function, speed, camera, features etc), end of day they're fairly similar (Apple has started many a lawsuit saying so) so the biggest factor is personal opinion (which you're gonna get ALOT of, Fanboys Unite!).
What you'll get here is many a fanboy pushing their side with very few informed opinions in between. Like this battery thing, face value sounds ok but I ain't never changed a cell batt in my life don't know bout you? Usually by the time your gonna change a cell batt your've gone through another couple of phones in that time more so with "smartphones" but each to their own & like I say best thing is to get em in your hands & play so head to your local Telecom store or something & play

I went for Android. Got a 4s for my work phone and its shite. So even though I don't particularly like Samsung I would buy that long before an iPhone
