...and a wave of Hipsters that think they aren't Hipsters all called him a "Fool!" and "explained" how S3 is the greatest thing on the planet, and not a slightly upgraded phone from its last iteration, just like the iPhones.

Phone elitest have no life and constantly obsess over someone has likes something different or popular and spew hate. Mommy must've not given them much attention.

raytraceme4534d ago

yes good for them and their huge marketing budget ;)

FriedGoat4534d ago

I have an Iphone and they definitely don't. I wan't to make the switch but i've bought so many apps n shizz over the years I'm kinda locked in.

KwietStorm_BLM4534d ago

Compared to everything that came out this year, I'm having a reeeeeally hard time seeing what the iPhone 5 did so above and beyond that makes it gadget I'd the year. It doesn't even do anything above and beyond the last model.

aviator1894534d ago (Edited 4534d ago )

No, they really don't. Not anymore.

edward32224534d ago (Edited 4534d ago )

I think S3 should be Gadget of year. Samsung is more inovative then Apple

R6ex4534d ago

Galaxy Note 2 more like it.

edward32224534d ago

But note 2 was just released u cant compare it with iPhone 5

Baka-akaB4534d ago (Edited 4534d ago )

Neither should get it then . The s3 is basically a more powerful s2 with a few fancy toys .

I'm amazed how you guys kept piling up sh*t over apple and its iphones and ipad , deservingly so ... then suddenly samsung get free passes

Yodagamer4534d ago (Edited 4534d ago )

The s2 was on par with phone of when it came out, and the s3 was above par of other phones when it came out. Heck the iphone 5 got features we had for a year in a half. NFC? Still don't have it LTE? Just got it this year. 4 in screen? we are moving on to 5 in screen. Price? more expensive than phones that have those features that the iphone doesn't have. Apple hasn't shocked the world steve jobs used to. The only thing iphone has on androids anymore is the eco system.

CraigandDayDay4534d ago

So what is gonna happen when the iPhone gets to a 5 in. screen?? lol U think Samsung will go up to 6"?? No.

All of these phones are getting to the point of diminishing returns when it comes to specs. You can only use so much specs on a phone.

Once we get to the point where specs are about maxed out, it will all come down to the "experience" you get with the phone. That's actually what matters to me right now.

I could care less if the Galaxy S4 came out next year with 16GB of RAM and 500GB of Solid State Storage. It's all about "will the specs be enough for the average user?" If the answer to that question is a "yes" then that is plenty. The iPhone 5 is a very well put together phone and has plenty of specs to do anything most people need it to.

Baka-akaB4533d ago

"The s2 was on par with phone of when it came out, and the s3 was above par of other phones when it came out."

Not at all . S3 was a rinse and repeat . Same thing more powerful .

If you guys are going to call apple names , again DESERVINGLY so , and make funs of apple fanboys following everything like the gospel ... then take a cold look hard at yourselves , and your android religions .

That's all i'm saying

Oh and number 3 was a good pick too

shutUpAndTakeMyMoney4534d ago (Edited 4534d ago )

Why?? Oh yeah says apple.

They might as well have iphone 4s as number 2. Just about the same sh!t..

Basically this..

This thing is like cod..

LOL_WUT4534d ago

The iPhone 5 is truly a remarkable device. Congrats to Apple, they deserve all the praise!

plmkoh4534d ago (Edited 4534d ago )

Should've been the Sony RX1, true engineering feat there.

But I suppose it's smaller cousin, the RX100, being no.3 ain't so bad.

i8urCAKE4534d ago

Bullshit. Iphone 5 is the same crap. Slimmer and Bigger Screen makes it gadget of the year YAY ! Apple is slowly rotting

eferreira4534d ago

Congrats apple. Yet again you make a product that constantly runs well and with exceptional build quality.

Aussiegamer4534d ago

Im guessing you don't own the iphone 5 then? Cause I had one for around a month and the edges where just stuffed. Phone is crap.

and yet there a gazillions of phones better.

aviator1894534d ago

Really??

And this is coming from the "prestigious" TIMIE magazine?

refocusedman4534d ago

The Iphone 5 is a great but I personally think that the GS3 is a better phone.

DivineHand1254534d ago (Edited 4534d ago )

How come the Nokia lumia 920 didn't even make it into the top 10 list. Its the most innovative smart phone of the year and yet the Iphone 5 beat by just changing its cable size and increasing the screen size. Clearly some bias going on here.

iliimaster4534d ago

ive had my gs3 for about 2 weeks now and can say its truly an iphone killer sales show now if apple decides to make a phone the size of the gs3 than thats another story but for them just to make the screen taller you gotta be kidding me dont get me wrong but the galaxy one and the gs2 and the gs3 are wayyyyyyyyyyy different from the iphone 1-5 which pretty much have been just faster and thinner with now a front camera after getting the gs3 ive offically switched over and will gladly use my i phone 4s as an ipod
