The SGS1's OS was a mess tho, especially put right next to an Iphone. Thanks God Sammy learnt from his mistakes

It got bigger and the size of the middle button changed. Still the same face arrangement. Anyways, like I said, the iPhone hardware doesnt even need fixing. Idk how they could make it look that would make it look better than it already does.

Yas! Can't wait to see it. I think it will be announced just a couple of weeks before launch, so we'll have to wait till april/may I guess

I want an S Pen

The argument over design is stupid really, what do you want Samsung to do? Design circular phones? All phones now are rectangular touch screen so it's gonna be a rectangle with a border around it, not much you can do after that. And let's be real here, an Apple fanboy talking about little change directed toward Samsung? What a joke.

Then when asked "what has apple done" the obvious reply from the apple stan: "Their hardware doesn't need fixing" yet the iPhone 5 is **** compared to a phone released 6 months prior???

Hardware as in the outer body. It's still the best looking phone out there according to critics.

Opinions. Everyone has them. The iPhone's aesthetic has gotten horribly bland and stale to me and I honestly think the GSIII is beautiful (yet many people think its disgusting), but that's my opinion. See? We can do it too

And "according to critics" is extremely vague. Even tech bloggers and critics' opinions on the iPhone's aesthetics vary widely. Ex: Many writers for some tech sites have said that they think HTC One X is the best looking phone. Some have said they think the Nokia Lumia is the best looking, etc. Apple is no longer the only one with competent designers anymore. There is plenty of room in the industry for many different good looking devices.

Iphone 5 was still unable to displace Samsung as world wide leader in mobile. Congrats Sammy those 1.5 billi is just charity pocket change for a self destructing company like Apple.

The Verge

In all, while the iPhone 5 might look familiar, the sheer attention to fit and finish in its build lends it a sense of quality and craftsmanship that far too many devices lack. The new design — particularly the black version, which has a kind of sinister simplicity to it — is truly something to behold.

The always unbiased GSM Arena -

There's no contest here really. The iPhone 5 handles like something you bought from a jewelry shop and it looks way better than the Galaxy S III. It's also way more compact so even with the build quality issues it has, it still comes as a winner here.

AndAnTech

It's pretty impressive to think about. If you thought the 4S was one of the best phone designs on the market in terms of aesthetics and build quality, the iPhone 5 just pushes that advantage further.

Slate

The iPhone’s unique comparative advantage is build quality: If you want a phone that is a pleasure to hold, one that just looks and feels better, there’s no equal on the market. No other phone is even close.

If youve held one, you'd know what they mean when they say how good the build is. But anyWAYS, lets discuss this flexible screen

OPINIONS.

If it ain't broke don't fix it, just make it taller. APPLE reminding me of RIM.

But no the flex screen is not happening I prefer the upcoming gorilla glass 3. I'm still open to see what its about.

Translated into sales too

They changed the whole material of the back too. This is nothing like RIM. RIM never wanted to make a touch screen phone and got held behind. Apple releasing the same face of a phone is nothing like that.

Iphones are much prettier then blackberries however the iphone has been rocking the same stale Os look and feel since it's introduction years ago. They are safe stale which happened to be the blackberries undoing. Just my opinion and allot of critics also agree the Os is in dire need of a face lift, they just say it nicer.

Oh come the **** on! I just bought this sh*t a couple of months ago

[thisbird]

That means the display could never be completely flat, which would bug me. I like my unbendable phone

Oh!

And yes I already watched it. That's a concept that would actually work. Samsung releasing a phone with the same, standard form factor that just bends has no practical purpose. It's just so Fandroids can say "Apple sucks! My phone bends! "

I'm not a Fandroid tho

I'm not saying the iPhone is a bad product. It's actually very good but wayy overpriced.

It's not a "dumb" idea to have bendable phones. It's called evolution. Capacitive touch screen was the last of it, now we are going into a new era. Whether or not the public would buy this is still in question but the fact that it is rumored to be in the very successful Galaxy Series, it'll end up huge and will probably be the next big thing. Of course, Nokia probably patented the concept

Being bendable would make it more compact and possibly more durable.

So, Nokia..

[RastaMentality]

Of course this is gonna be successful. The most successful Android device obviously but unless they're making it into a watch, I dont see a need for the bendable screen. I wonder how the plastic will feel to swipe and type on though. I havent used a plastic touch screen yet.

[RastaMentality]

The "Galaxy" series is getting more and more hugely popular. I wonder if itll get as big as the DROID trademark. Droids dont sell as well but ever since the Moto/VZ collab people just call any Android device a Droid when in fact DROID is only Verizon Android Motorola devices. So I'm not sure if thats necessarily brand popularity or if its just people being misled.

Because it won't break?!

That does not mean you bend it all the time for the sake of it. But when it falls or is in your bag it will be much less easy to break it.

[jomarr]

We all never have used it so how would we know that it wouldn't be useful? If this were true, it will be one of its highlights. A feature maybe useless to you but useful to others. That's why you use an iPhone, man***** uses the S3 and I'm with Nokia. We have different needs and different tastes. Let's just applaud another evolution coming on it's way. It's not like we hated the iPhone when it was released. We loved it too, we think it was revolutionary, an icon in the phone industry but with better alternatives now that is cheaper and more powerful, some might prefer those over the iPhone.

and we know Apple isn't leading the features pack
