Comparing SGS3 to iPhone 4s is like comparing Xbox 360 to a playstation 2, it's oudated.. the new iPhone 5 will be a lot better.

I don't disagree...but there are many iphans that argued the only thing that would ever surpass the 4s would be the next model of iphone, just as all previous models of iPhone have carried it without interruption.
You also have to look at the simple metrics involved...there are only so many people out there to buy subsidized phones...samsung , with their multi price level offerings and a killer flagship have made a huge impact on the market just prior to release...and have plans to further impact things around the time that we will see the next model iPhone

you are correct sir....i think it's funny when people act like the 4s is 3 years old ....And Samsung will make an impact when the I5 is released with the "note II"...which is why Apple just added the GS3 and the "note" to it's lawsuit...so Apple can have a jump start on attacking the Note II

It's a year old, you can't compare it to a phone that has been out for a few months with the pace that technology changes.
No need to move this it has nothing to do with the Apple versus Samsung case. The sales of the iPhone 4 S has diminished because the new model is coming out. And the iPhone 5 will out sell the Galaxy S 3 because of all the Apple sheep out there. To be honest, I can see how the iPhone 5 will be better than our phone.

you have a point about technology...but look at the original EVO..that lasted(and held up) for what...2 years?..THe 4s is just about 11 months old actually...now think back to the release date(Oct 11 2011) and all the sales..and think about the price and how it was suppose to be the best thing going...to only run for 11 months?...Come on now..
If people were told on the release date that an Iphone "twice as good" would be released just 11 months later...how many do you think would have just waited?
on edit: The GS3(international) was released on may 29 2012...thats 7 months its unfair to compare phones that are only 7 months apart? For that kind of money? THat's crazy...either way Apple knew what Samsung was doing which is exactly why the I5 is being pushed out so soon...
Now if you recall the GS2 was released in may 9 of 2011 and when the 4s was released 5 months later are you telling me that nobody compared it or suggested how much better it was than ANY OTHER phone(including the GS2)???
Can't wait to get that new iPhone so I will be legally retarded

I liked the first one better lol. I like the advertisements they're shockingly accurate as to what apple launch day is.
Apple gave their competition a golden opportunity. If I had an iPhone 4 I would not walk out of a store using an upgrade on a phone that looks identical and basically is identical (OK don't flame but an upgraded camera and CPU/gpu isn't worth an upgrade)
Evo 4g to epic touch, now That is an upgrade ;-)

The first round of commercials were better, it actually showed some of features of the phone. Still I like the fact that they are firing back at apple...the right and respectable way...not with frivolous lawsuits but through competition.

One of the metrics we are scored on is return rate. I've yet to return an iPhone for anything but a more expensive iPhone. I have definitely returned android devices (including the epic touch) for iPhones. I will give someone a fair discussion on whether they are really getting the right phone without resorting to android snobbery, but I ultimately have to look out for me and not get things returned.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Unless I get an Apple diehard with nothing but Apple products I can usually flop them to Android. More specifically the Epic Touch. Larger screen, expandable memory and showing them mine running all the rooted goodies. Plus, a lot of people don't like that you have to use iTunes.

We can't just sell the phone off, because it's defective and that would be considering scamming. I would love to get a refund or exchange but we are unable to do so even within warranty, as this problem "does not exist."
I said in another topic that my complaints are directed the both Samsung for making this ****ty phone and ignoring the obvious problem, and to the phone companies for ignoring the problem not allowing refunds or exchanges.

That defense worked for Microsoft when Apple tried to sue them over the icon interface. Microsoft claimed the icon interface came from Xerox. Apple eventually dropped the case.
Also, this is far from over. Samsung will definitely appeal. There are plenty of reasons for possibly winning under appeal.

The main reason for Apple go againist Samsung is Samsung is an important supplier for making apple products especially iphone. If you check history of Samsung phones model, they never have similar model until iphone 3g started to rise of global sales. Samsung then release products like instinct. I worked for a Canadian carrier and I remember Samsung was pushing hard with the Instinct model and had trainings and incentive for sales. Its normal to see competitors being copy cat because its all about money. But samsung was doing it too much. Remeber the smart cover incident? Galaxy tab 10.1 was launched with the same design of Apple smart cover and it was the relatives of the Boss of Samsung who made it. They had to pull away this product line right away. If Apple is a person and that is you. And your buddy Samsung is part of the supplier of your products which you spend a lot of times and energy to design. And one day he created similar product lines and make money from it and dont admit he is copying. So what would you do?
Just my thought, im not a fan of Apple or Samsung. Don't care. Whoever makes cool products and feed my lifestyle, I will buy and use it.

Actually, what we really need would be Google Wallet support for our GS3's without the hack-around. But we know that wouldn't work with Apple since they're now Anti-Google. Forget where i saw it... think it was on the news earlier, but i like how they put it. Something along the lines of "There is so much competition between Apple and Google, that Apple decided to recreate the world." in regards to Apple's new maps system.

The only feature I was eagerly looking forward to in the iPoop5 was NFC, but, nope, mobile payments are now set back a few years for everyone.

This.
Its almost impossible to get (cheap) nfc tags in Canada. I asked a Best Buy rep at the Eaton Centre store in Toronto a couple of days ago, and he had no idea what NFC was.
I was really hoping the new iphone would have it so that it would become 'mainstream', but guess we have to wait another year now. Also, doesn't help that stupid S Beam is incompatible with Android Beam (try transferring photos to any non-GS3 phone, it will fail..till we get updated to JellyBean)

So when the iphone comes out with a lighter feeling phone, it feels impressively light, when Samsung comes out with one with a lighter feeling, it feels cheap.

i remember reading reviews almost 'ranting' about how light the galaxy s and galaxy s ii were. people were saying 'too light', 'does not feel premium because phone does not feel substantial in hand', 'iphone is perfect with high quality weight to it', 'sometimes not sure if in pocket or not'. something along those lines.
and i read this on a youtube comment but I think it could hold some truth. could Apple have not included nfc (even if it wanted to/why wouldn't they want to?), because it already finalized its aluminum design? fail.

Laser keyboard and holographic video? Haha. I just have to laugh at these people all the time. The first dude said it was the coolest, most awesomest phone ever. I wonder why he thinks so when it only has a larger screen and LTE and a few minor upgrades. I wonder if Apple pays these people to line up and hype up the iPhone.

Just to explain why some might be that way. Is basically cause we like all forms of technology including competing phones to Android, we research to see what we are up against. I for one think the iPhone is a great device, for people that want simple but works. I've read more about the iPhone then I've read about most new androids... I've also turned many of my friends who were huge on the iPhone to start using android. Overall most people don't dislike the iPhone just the maker...
My thoughts at least.

Read about that one and it was appealing. And two phones give you a nice reason to splurge lol.

With its easy-to-use interface, amazing features, and rock-solid stability, iOS is the foundation of iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch. And even as others try to catch up, the technologies and features built into iOS keep your Apple devices years ahead.
This is on there ios 6 page I LOL'ED

Totally agree, it's their business practices that lost me as a fan back when they released the original iPhone. Still bought iPods until I got my Vibrant in 2010, then they all collected dust until I bought a Nano to use as a watch. But I'll never, ever own an iPhone. Android=freedom to customize and affords the opportunity to learn at least a little on how things work.

Hysterical!
Don't get me started on their business practices. The only Apple product I've ever owned was an iPod Video and even that was a gift. It's mind blowing with the iPods how they had all the technology to make the iPod Video the first generation iPod, but they purposefully stripped useful features away so they can slowly add the features back and sell it as a whole new device. The really unexpected part is stupid people still pay for it!
It's the same thing with the iPhone now. There's no reason why the iPhone 4S only had a 800 Mhz processor when everyone else was putting out 1.0 to 1.5Ghz processors. It's the same business tactic. Put out a substandard product now, release a later version with some of the stripped features, make idiots buy the same device twice.
You guys have to check out his article.
Wacky things heard in a carrier store!
I think this rep needs to work in the Apple store rather than at AT&T. Obviously he is clueless as to which phones was included in the lawsuit that Apple won as the Galaxy S3 wasn't included in that trial. Even though Apple is trying to in another case.
This is one reason why I hate ordering phones in store.
