The reasonable price is the Iphone 4 and 4s
The Iphone 5 will outsell any android phone on the market

Every smartphone maker on the market is trying to keep up with the apple.

as much as i think the apple brand is becoming stagnant, the iPhone 5 will sell like hotcakes as usual.

Clarence here is a prime example of fanboys thinking

"Every smartphone maker on the market is trying to keep up with the apple."

with regards to what, hardware? software? sales? if its the latter i must say you statement to me really means nothing and is an example of someone blindly following what others are buying simply because they're buying it. You praise apple because they sell shitloads? i'll take my interest elsewhere to where the features and hardware are evolving constantly in a bid to give me the consumer a better experience. you can keep your lawsuits and proprietary connections.

Gamesmaster, he's a fanboy but is kind of right. Even though Android phones have better hardware and arguably better software Apple's iDevices sell much better. My personal theory is it's a usability thing. Most consumers are scared of technology and with iOS it essentially couldn't be any more straight forward to use.

Dude not hating on the iphone but Steve Jobs was an innovator and he would be shame to see wat the iPhone is.

Yes after the the 4s we Iphone users were expecting Apple to to topple the Nokia 920 but they did not even match it.

Go google Nokia 920 vs iPhone 5 and then come back here and tell that the iPhone 5 was not a let down.

@Knight_Crawler I'm aware of the lumia 920 and I don't feel let down at all. What I like about the iphone isn't specifically the specs/power but the look/build quality and software/functionality. Currently I have a jailbroken iphone 4 and am considering either the galaxy s3 or the iphone 5. Hey if your let down, don't buy it(don't you hate that phrase?). More power to you.

@knight_crawler, you clearly forgot that Jobs was in charge of overseeing the likes of this iPhone the last ipad and other future projects for Apple.

The man was an innovator yes, but he was a also a business man as to why the some apple products have had small "innovations" per year.

it's funny that but people do rather seem to like being controlled however much they say they don't; I digress- I love my android phone and am not impressed by the iphone 5 at all, not to mention as with most apple products I'd be able to get better tech for a lower price as they charge you a few organs just for the brand name; what really irritates me is when you see people saying they wont/can't buy whatever expensive NEW (as in actually a fairly significant upgrade over the last iteration)
because it's too much or they want to but can't afford to; or people just moaning that another phone is too expensive and you ask them what phone they've got and they reply with an iphone that's costing them like £35+ usually 40 something, and want the new one....

lol some people spend too much of their time on petty things. Let people buy what they want and do something productive with yourself.

"Apple products because they are simpler, better thought out, reliable, durable and most of all there is always someone who can help you in the worst case scenario."

Everything you said there is not very factual at all. I call up my cell carrier, sprint and they walk me thru troubleshooting or I can walk into a sprint store to get it fixed if that doesnt work.

"Simple"? Well there only 1 button to push vs 3. SO ya I guess to a retard its is 2 buttons less.

"better thought out" Im not seeing that one either. Apple phones look shinny and chromy for the first 5 min you own it, then it looks like a used up hockey rink and after a week of skating on it. Plus they dont let you ever change the battery or use memory cards. Also screen is too small. No ty, im out!

Question:'Everything you said there is not very factual at all. I call up my cell carrier, sprint and they walk me thru troubleshooting or I can walk into a sprint store to get it fixed if that doesn't work. '

Answer:

It is factual. Indeed it is. I don't live in the USA so I can vouch for Sprint but in the UK. You phone a mobile (cell) they run through pre-scripted questions and answer. If the fault is their's there good to help, if yours. In their words "LIVE WITH IT". 99% of the time all your treated as an idiot.

Question: "Simple"? Well there only 1 button to push vs 3. SO ya I guess to a retard its is 2 buttons less.

Answer: Simplier. Apple definitions of making things simple. Why make something more complex than it needs to be? Why add additional steps when few work better? Why break a users experience between updates? They use rules like this between the software and hardware. Adobe refused in 2001 to make Adobe range of products from Mac. Even though many executives and workers started out at Apple. But the only request from Steve Jobs was that Adobe products drop a lot of the un-needed extras and unfriendly interfaces. Adobe did that many years later and Apple has become its main platform for its software.

I laugh at folk like your self. You can't accept anything because you have 'I AM ALWAYS RIGHT' printed on your forehead. Could dub your self Captain Hindsight.
