    Apple's marketing strategy is pretty effective. They select their target markets carefully and know what their consumers want.

    The Apple brand name itself significantly boosts sales of their products as it's well-known.

    So your saying that their "name" makes people buy their iPhones? Right that still doesn't make sense.

    A lot more people use Apple compared to what? Blackberry? Windows phones? Not Android, that's for sure.

    I think their market share is even higher worldwide than it is in the US.

    Edit: it is.

    Yes, it does. That's why they spend hundreds of millions of dollars on marketing. A lot of people buy it because they think its a status symbol.

    This lady is clearly buying an iPhone 5 for... Um... I'm not sure why she is, to be honest.

    1. I quoted "its in fb" that's where the *FP* come into it..

    2. Does he not realise FB also has a web address... (might not show up on the app but it exsists..)

    3. Facebook isn't a magic land that no one can get to, sorry to spoil your day.

    4. Who in their right mind would care about what someone posted on FB? You still believe everything you read hu?

    Ohh believe me it makes a hella lot of sense, because it happens every time Apple release a by standard device.

    Take 2nd Gen Touch 128RAM (8, 16, 32GB)

    Release a brand new 3rd Gen 8GB everyone goes crazy and buys one to replace their 2nd Gen.. then realises Apple used the same processor and RAM etc as the 2nd Gen... (lmao)

    On their official specs they remove 3rd Gen 8GB as if it never exsisted..

    Apple do the trick all the time and people keep falling for it.

    Well they may do that but they are still pretty dam good at what they do. What about the iMacs? iPad? iPad 3 was an alright jump my a BIGGGGG but not bad. There laptops are sweet who doesn't like them and what about the Tvs and computers ? They have a good future same as androids it's whatever's to your likings and I'm sure it's not just the trick that tricks them, people actually love the iPhone they don't b**** about oh no that android is a lol faster! Oh no it has like 2 mega pixels more then the iPhone! Dam the iPhone has a lot more to come soon you just wait. It's mostly the style an he iPhone has it.

    No worries. All I've said here is iPhone used to be or once was a leading device. But to release something as poor as iPhone5 and expect to stay leading they have another thing coming.

    HTC/Samsung already have better devices than this, including specs. Give it 6 months and they will not only be leading but close to quadruple the specs or further by the time Apple release iPhone5s or 6 we are talking 1-2 years time, an by then they will be falling behind even more than they are today.

    Apple had a few things that were worth having one other companies have caught on an improved these now the margin can no longer be seen.

    iDoubt they will be the next best "Gaming Device" until they catch up. (If they can that is)

    Can a dev/mod just close this thread already?
    Sick and tired of "some" ppl posting info about xxxx phone is better than zzzz phone when they know zilch about tech.

    And anyone who quotes from Facebook("reliable", indeed.)is an idiot.
    That's what Cnet, The Verge and gsmarena are for. =.="'

    Btw by the lack of why iPhones aren't doing so good anymore is might because Steve jobs is gone. He was a very Pushy man >:| and as I said before silly thing this is one thing and only il say now if they can check your diabetes level from a mobile phone, what else could they do in the future? Not all about the speed speed speed I'm sure apple can keep up with that later on we never know maybe android will take the lead and keep it it's yet to see apple has a fighting chance but for now! Enjoy what you like if you dot like then show it up the sellers a**

    The OP was about iPhone5 being the "Best" gaming phone/device.

    Ofc spec's matter. Its like saying Specs on a PC/Laptop don't matter when trying to play newly released games.

    @Bod-The Lg Optimus G is probably the only phone so far that can beat the iPhone 5 in terms of performance(It beat the SGS III in most benchmarks and by huge margins.)

    Remember the iPhone lost to Sgs III in some benchmarks but the only area it managed to beat the S III by a huge margin is in Webpage loading speeds =.="'

    Well, once ppl get their hands on the Lg Optimus G things will change. Definitely.

    Also,the iOS 6 maps application is broken and Connecting to WIFI encrypted with WPA 2 PSK is a real pain.

    Yup I have seen the bench marks, but for "gaming" half of them do not make a diff.

    Especially taking a year into consideration. 3-6 months or less.

    SGIII was reaching the "old" stage after this is released. (In phone terms)

    in laptops the games can be scaled to whatever specs the device has, the situation is not the same for phones, because the developers are paralyzed by the specs of older generation devices, the least specced active model in the ecosystem, not recently released cutting edge device
    so in effect, the 3 year old iphone 3GS is deciding the minimum system requirements, not any 3 year old droid, because not too many of those will get jellybean, 3 years from now it's very likely that the standards will move on to the shift from iphone7 to iphone8, that's when the specs of the iphone5 will matter most, not now

    If we are talking about sts or games alike yes. But not games pushing the devices full potential, what I like my device to be able to do and what I use it for.

    Heh...May be a little late hearing about this, but it really proves the new charger is almost purely for profit.

    Let me get some bias reviews and test all flagship phones.

    Wait, never mind. I don't care.

    Seriously, how the hell is this still open?
