    Meh. Apple just makes new phones, and the ones who, buy them. Pretty much their logic<---

    Also, I don't have an iPhone.

    Everyone hates on the iPhones/Apple in General, are they really that terrible? xD All I've ever had are iPhones just because they're easy to use, what's the fabtabulousness of Android phones?

    Yes. I feel like they make mediocre products and feed off of people that have zero understanding of technology. That's not even the reason why I hate them. I hate them because they're a corporate bully that tries suing other companies left and right for infringing on their "innovation" (IE rounded corners)

    Just read newspaper today, Apple is the most valuable business followed by Google and Coca-Cola.

    Those who seek large screens of 5''+ and high end resolutions, only Android comes into question. Who, however, loves the one-hand operation above all else, shall get the small Apple smartphone with 4''.
    The iPhone is very appealing, especially optical. Though, if you do not work in the bank industry or else, where an expensive mobile has become a necessity I would not recommend it to someone at all.

    If you are rather the photograph, I'd recommend the Xperia Z1 with 20.7 MP and integrated optical image stabilizer. With 2.2 GHz Processor, 2GB Ram and a beyond superior resolution of 441 ppi at a price of $50 less than the 5s. (Gf? Maybe)

    The upcoming Note 3 is top notch as well, with 2.3 Ghz. 3GB Ram and 3200mAh battery it's the perfect phoblet. The only disadvantage is the large 5.7'', which won't fit in every pocket.

    The LG G2 is a nice one as well it's extremely powerful and design-wise way ahead. The perfect Gamer-Phone imo.


    Anyway, I was never really a fan of Apple products, but I don't put them down. Though, Sheriff I recommend to sell the 5s and buy a better phone. (The 700-900 $ was no good investment - trust me.)

    ... yep

    They are not terrible, they just are way too overpriced. Plus iOS lacks lots of basic features from other operating systems.

    20.7 megapixels? That's cute.

    Nokia 808
    Nokia 1020

    These phones have pretty decent cameras, 41 megapixels. Too bad their operating systems are complete garbage (Symbian and WP).

    Mega pixels don't tell the full story. In fact, larger pixels in smaller quantity will actually capture more light and provide a crisper image. How do you think htc gets away with a 4mp camera on their flagship phone? Sure they call them ultra pixels but that's just so mainstream non tech savvy users can understand that it's much more than the typical mega pixel. Why do you think camera manufacturers haven't made a 100mp camera yet? But, I will say that the Nokia Lumia 1020 does sport a rather superb camera although image processing is painfully slow in such a way that it completely detracts from the experience.

    Yes, I know that megapixels don't tell everything about the quality of the camera. But still, Nokia's PureView cameras are by far the best cameras in any smart phones.

    And btw, camera manufacturers have already made cameras that have over 100 megapixels. For example, this camera has 160 megapixels, and it's almost 7 years old.

    Samsung also added the Samsung Gear. Which is a nice addition. I got to play with the Note 3 before it's release (I know people) and let me tell you, it's one insanely good phone.

    Too many people think megapixels are the deciding factor on a camera. If you walk into a Best Buy, half of the camera displays don't even list their aperture, image sensor, the glass they use, etc.

    I agree, although my use with the 1020 didn't come off as "painfully slow." Windows Phones get a lot of crap for their lower end specs, but they don't need a crazy processor for their operating system. Same way Apple gets away with lower end specs on their devices. Difference is, Windows Phone for devices like their 1020 have a really stellar feature to make it a flagship (IE the camera), while Apple puts in a feature or two that is pointless and unnecessary, this time it was the fingerprint scammer...oops, scanner, and 64-bit (with 1 gig of RAM? Really?)

    Although you could argue the camera on the 1020 is pointless as well. Camera phones will never surpass a good DSLR.
