A 4'' phone can have any features, I am not interested. Too small..
[Galaxy S III General] EdgaBimbam:
yeh im looking forward for iphone 5 but just for interesting. Had iphone 4s, phone maybe isnt so bad, but operating system is totally crap. Couldnt even send files over bluetooth...... android ftw
[Galaxy S III General] sxi200:
Here's what I know already:

1) It will still be highly dependant of iTunes.

2) Users will have to wait maybe months for a jailbreak.

3) The OS will basically still look the same as it did in 2007.

4) Still won't be able to backup the device on the memory card (ala cwm).

5) It will still have only one button - no dedicated back or menu keys.

6) You still won't be able to Bluetooth apps / movies / music to other phones.

7) Out of the box it won't just work until it's activated.

8) No removable battery of external memory card support.

9) I could seriously go on and on and on. But I've wasted enough time on crapple.

Please understand, I actually also own an iphone but once you've tasted android, ios is a major pain in the behind. Unless you are a simple person who find it difficult to do anything other than swype left to right.

Man I haven't tinkered with my iPhone since last year. I'm just bored of it and find it cumbersome to do anything on it. Believe me, it works great for messaging and taking / making calls.

I'm still on an older firmware because upgrading would mean hours and hours or restoring and re-downloading hacks, if they still work.

What pisses me off most is all the hype and media attention it gets. The S3 will still be a much better phone but still no media reports about it, on TV at least. Here in Australia all the major news networks have been talking about it's release for a week. Even today there was an ad for the morning news, which will feature the new iphone. Apple have bought out the media I think.
[Galaxy S III General] VulguM:
I'm curious about what they have to offer, but I'm not holding my breath.

I hope I'm wrong though, and Apple blows our minds with some awesome innovation and declare it creative commons. Man that'll sure be surprising :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III General] prking07:
I am actually waiting till the iphone 5 hits the streets, so i can see how many people like being held back in terms of technological evolution when they buy an iphone 5.
[Galaxy S III General] btemtd:
Even that I dont beleive it beats the GT-I9305. 4.8 Screen 4G, 2GB ram Quad Core. Only thing it will beat it with is the Battery.and I doubt very much it wil be that High.

So No I dont beleive the new Iphone 5 will beat the New GS3 GT-I9305

and U can guess which one I am getting
[Galaxy S III General] w1nter456:
The only thing that Apple that have done a great thing that is keep up to date. Samsung never promise on time.
[Galaxy S III General] EdgaBimbam:
because apple release one phone in year and it is easier to have up to date software. ;D
[Galaxy S III General] ronj1986:
Please close this thread.....go to another general thread & post nonsense about the IPHONE5.....this is the Galaxy S III forum!!
[Galaxy S III General] HtcDesire2:
It will start 6PM BST.
[Galaxy S III General] OneDeep:
Does the iPhone 4s have an LED light for notifications?
[Galaxy S III General] EdgaBimbam:
no it hasnt
[Galaxy S III General] HtcDesire2:
I know this is Galaxy s III GENERAL THREAD.. And please look at the first post.. It says "IPhone 5 will make Galaxy SIII shame" that's why i started this post to check if that's at all true (IMO NO WAY). :)

Chill.
[Galaxy S III General] stierney:
No led no NFC no blue tooth or wifi xfer. Still tied to itunes. Thats enough to put any techy off.
[Galaxy S III General] KMino:
Already have iPhone 6 features and more with Jelly Bean and available applications.

Someone put up a list when it's released.

Bet all can be done now, in a few ways like voice search can be etc.

Why step backwards?

I think iPhone users are looking forward to Android, BlackBerry etc cherry picked features. That have been re-wrapped and called revolutionary, along with a funky name and spot on tv for said feature.

The iPhone name for the said feature, shall become instilled in people's brain, that that is the features name. In five years time Apple shall sue for damages for theft of said feature. The jury shall concur it's Apples design, since they are brain washed plebes.
[Galaxy S III General] Frostfree:
It will have NFC which Apple will re-badge under a different name and claim it's a new patented invention. The iSheep will bow in awe and sing it's praises forever after.
[Galaxy S III General] CuBz90:
The iPhone 5 will have "new" features that Android and other devices have had for years, then they will make out it is their innovation and the media will make out like it never existed and it's a new extraordinary bunch of features, and iPhone users will act like it's a new bunch of features that Apple came up with and they'll be going to Android users showing off their new features, but Android users will reply with "I've had that for years, it's nothing new".

FYA!!
[Galaxy S III General] Meraklis56:
i predict apple "re-invents" S3's motion gestures! ;)
[Galaxy S III General] Simonetti2011:
It will be at 5:00 PM GMT.

About the features, I don't expect it to be a groundbreaking device. It might, however, have a much larger display, because the iPhone 4S simply looks too punny for me, now that I've got used to the S III's huge display.

SIRI might see some improvements as well, such as faster response time and support for more languages.

I hardly doubt it will be a 2Gb RAM, 4-cores device, because iOS simply doesn't need that. It may, however, have support for multitasking and background tasks.

Although the OP has a very good point - we all love new technlogy, no matter where it comes from - let's be honest: Apple has NOT, and for a long time, been leading the race in technology advances. Samsung and Google have taken the pole position in the technology vanguard. Apple has been feeding on a very good operating system that was created several years ago and has only seen very little improvement. Add to that a hardware design that pleases most people (not me), truckloads of money on marketing to create a hype and false sense of vanguard.

anyhow, I am also curious to see what will be uncovered in exactly 3hours and 24 minutes.
[Galaxy S III General] delsus:
I heard it will have a revolutionary feature called MMS O.o

EDIT: Source http://www.t3.com/features/ios-6-pictures/ios-6-addphotosmessages-dig-jpg
[Galaxy S III General] barondebxl:
here's what I honestly think the iPhone 5 will be:

-3.7 to 4 inch retina display

-New design

-A5X chip/fast GPU

-IOS6( faster java script, faster blah blah blah)

-10mp camera (probably the best thing on This phone)

-some kind of a face recognition software

-better speakers

-some new thing that takes advantage of the bigger screen

Overall it'll be a nice upgrade over the 4s and probably a solid phone, but I think the S3 will still be the best phone with its quad core processor, the upcoming jelly bean update, the 4.8 inch super AMOLED display and most importantly it's unlocked bootloader :D
[Galaxy S III General] Toss3:
Think it has been confirmed that the iPhone 5 is going to have an 8 Mp camera. But as someone mentioned earlier this is the SGSIII forum any discussion relating to the iPhone should be placed elsewhere. :)
[Galaxy S III General] omgabunny:
Wow a non Apple bashing and constructive reply haha. Kudos to you sir :)
[Galaxy S III General] jason11:
yes i am waiting for

WHICH ANDROID FUTURES WILL APPLE INVENT TODAY.
[Galaxy S III General] delsus:
It will also have the completely unique and revolutionary feature called turbine by turn navigation.

Also @ The guy who posted the list, the only "new design" it will have is being slightly longer to accommodate the tiny 4" screen.
[Galaxy S III General] disclaimernotice:
Another revolutionary feature it will have is iStay, which uses the front camera to detect your eyes to keep your screen on. It's a totally new feature that Samsung obviously copied from them.
[Galaxy S III General] delsus:
Not to mention iBeam that uses iNFC both of which Samsung ripped off them.
[Galaxy S III General] uncle bob:
iphone 5????!!! :eek::D

whaaatt?? SGS3 killer??? :eek::eek::D

SGS3 = "Designed for Humans" :thumbup::thumbup::thumbup:

iPhone 5 = "Designed for Hipsters" :D:D:D
[Galaxy S III General] CandyAndy:
Also waiting to see what will they be bringing today. I hope there would be something really revolutionary. It seems that this year only things there has been just faster processors, GUI and so on. Voice Search is the best on JB but even if it works that well, I really never use it. Around people just too retarded and when alone at home just easier to put that alarm with hand than speaking to the phone.

I would say that even SGS3 wasn't that much of revolution. This is a freaking good phone, but now would be nice to have something totally awesome.

Yet I think today will be disappointed (as I was after SGS3, then I swore not to upgrade from SGS2..ah how wrong I was :D )
[Galaxy S III General] hykhleif:
well i owned all major phones and android sucks in everything.

Too much lag, my iphone 4s had over 1000 apps and ran smooooooooth

my current dam sg3 only has 30 apps and its lagging and lagging its should be called sg2lag and not sgs3

not to the say the bad sg note which was a piece if crap too, I will buy iphone 5 in a heartbeat and throw this piece of junk in the garbage
[Galaxy S III General] jason11:
they are paying lot of money to advertise and some are their fan-boys .

some media say it will increase us's economy ( lot of american fan boys pay lot of money to increase china's economy)

[Galaxy S III General] xp3rto:
Apple and innovation? Sounds so weird !
[Galaxy S III General] jody2k:
Im always open for some new innovations but I dont think iphone 5 will have it
[Galaxy S III General] ruk212:
Obviously your s3 doesn't like your face , and wants you to sell it to somebody who can use it correctly and doesn't look and sound quasimodo .
[Galaxy S III General] buttwad:
And the most important one, it will be out of warranty as soon as you touch the box.....re moisture detection system!!
[Galaxy S III General] swift2fly:
i have a feeling that most features listed in the link below is true:

http://www.gsmarena.com/apple_iphone_5-4910.php

on another note:

Android is for advanced users

iOS is for 4year olds and up

True story.
[Galaxy S III General] knuckle03:
I have around 100+ apps on my s3 not even a single lag. I also do "MULTITASKING" d-loading torrent while listening music, browsing the internet, checking mails and txtin some friends and the phone is still buttery smooth.
[Galaxy S III General] joey jojo:
Your obviously not getting the most out of your sg3 and not using it to its fullest potential, when you buy your iTurd make sure you send your clunky sg3 to me, i will get that beast running like its supposed to!! LOL :laugh::cool:
[Galaxy S III General] aydc:
I'm looking forward to what Samsung will copy from Apple on SGS4. For example last year iPhone got Siri and SGS3 later 'coincidentally' had S-Voice. Whatever feature Apple announces today will most probably be instantly copied by Samsung, so today is like a SGS4 preview event. :)
[Galaxy S III General] sohail77:
Dude are u really owning sgs3 ???????

Plzzzzz check the model no. Lol.......:P
[Galaxy S III General] Geordie Lad:
I haven't laughed in 3 days in preparation for this so I'm literally ready to explode with laughter when I see the announcement.
[Galaxy S III General] Meemo23:
Lol is all i can say for everyone that is on here arguing and lol for this thread!
[Galaxy S III General] kulisap:
I won't wonder why you are only thanked 19 times on your 600+ post--having such remarks.

I think you trully belong to the iWorld.
[Galaxy S III General] skibadee:
Errr... I've had voice recognition on my phone since my s1, (admit it was crap) but still before siri was was bought out and shoved on 4s's
[Galaxy S III General] jayc1980:
I hope it's the most groundbreaking phone ever with lots off interesting and usefully features that have not been thought of yet!! I hope it blows every other phone out of the water!!

My logic in this? Well the next s4 will be equally or more groundbreaking as the iPhone 5, and I love my Samsung's! I am not an apple fan, never owned one, never will unless it becomes as open as android and as flexible. My partner has in iPhone 4s, loves it, hates my s3 (too big she says), and I say her iPhone is too small. For me I will never leave android in this current market, ios is no good, windows is no good and I won't even mention blackberry!!

Not long now till we hopefully find out what it's like, and also iPhone fans start quaking outside their nearest apple store to be the first to get it :p
[Galaxy S III General] razorjumper:
The most amazing iphone yet :eek:

But still, lots of people will queue overnight to buy it. Almost half the people on the streets where i live owns am IcommonPhone!
[Galaxy S III General] EdgaBimbam:
emmm the idea of siri was stolen from nokia. With nokia 6720 i could also use voice recognition, ofc it wasnt so advanced but still the idea was taken from nokia....
[Galaxy S III General] jody2k:
Everyone is copying thats marketing/business, what apple fails to do samsung succeeds with something better and otherwise.
[Galaxy S III General] kanin_rider:
I think he owns one.. the knock-off version.. :p lol.
[Galaxy S III General] saldawop:
Whats the problem with the moisture detection system?

My 3gs was replaced after nine months when the mute button broke off,no sensor had been triggered and warranty was intact.
[Galaxy S III General] Suraj.Udg:
whatever apple does...does good. but the do less and talk more. so whatever they come up with...should be good. but not as good as they'd potray! :rolleyes:
[Galaxy S III General] EdgaBimbam:
nah, just isheep came here to troll :D

1000appz? yeh right, then i have 10000 and running smoothly on my galaxy ace /facepalm
[Galaxy S III General] Simonetti2011:
You forgot to mention that the new iPhone 5 will help improve the owner's fitness and endurance.

How? In order to get an iPhone 5, the hipster will have to wait in line for 15 days, sitting and sleeping on hard concrete, having nothing to eat but rotten natural sandwiches and Starbucks Coffee, will have to hold in poop and pee and run the risk of being robbed...

How can this not increase one's endurance?

To easen the burden on the poor bastards, they will appear on national (worldwide, actually!) television, and that's when they think of themselves as adventurers or conquerors, while we sit confortable on our warm couches, remote control on one hand and a Galaxy S III on then other, watch them and think: "how much more can these hipsters disgrace themselves" ?

Then they finally have the privilege of paying $1000+ for a piece of hardware that will be costing 10% of that value in a few months, that is already technologically surpassed by our S III.
[Galaxy S III General] EdgaBimbam:
made my day :D
[Galaxy S III General] kanin_rider:
Wow! 10000? I wonder how many times you will have to flick through pages in app drawer with that massive number of apps! :eek::D
[Galaxy S III General] EdgaBimbam:
after 2 bottles redbull appz amount isnt important for me :D

ok guys sorry for off topic ;D
[Galaxy S III General] zen0s:
After reading live blog about iPhone 5 as I expected, i'm not impressed at all. It's all standard stuff, same look, same boring limited iOS etc etc etc... NO THANKS CRAPPLE!

I'm more impressed with this Video hahah

[YOUTUBE]GXr1kmuqGcU[/YOUTUBE]
[Galaxy S III General] EdgaBimbam:
4s design is much more sexier than iphone 5 lol.... after one year they have done- nothing, just playing patent game.....
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
so all the hype for the launch of ipoop is for this? nothing interesting or impressive... lol samsung will be laughing hard in their headquarters :D
[Galaxy S III General] poplectic:
Yep, just confirms I was right to stick the 4s on eBay and upgrade to the S3.
[Galaxy S III General] jonny68:
FFS this is a forum for the SAMSUNG GALAXY S3 not fuc*in iPhone, these types of posts belong in the off topic forum, ive zero interest in what is the most overrated piece of equipment of all time, the fanboys are already drooling even though it's still lagging behind this phone.

Seriously stop these type of posts in this forum, i need to become a moderator here i tell ya you would soon see some drastic changes, none of these type of posts and temporary bans for noobs.

Rant over :mad:
[Galaxy S III General] Mafioso:
Maybe i'm in small %age of population...But i believe WP8 phone's are gonna kick ass in future..

The only thing which is still working for apple is its brand name, the iPhone image and the huge library apps due its head start in smartphone franchise but it can't last forever. Android has almost become on par in apps but it still gets a bad name in UI dept because of the cheaper sets running on shi*ty hardware/screen and faulty implementation of android which leads to lag/slowness/crashes/touch/crappy display and overall perception that android suxxx, iphone's better. In reality they are comparing a $200 phone with a $600 phone.

With fixed hardware requirements, better update model and super fluid UI, WP will be able to offset these negatives of android. Once it gets the apps on par with ios/android, its better than iOS and also better than android in some respects minus the zune crap. So in future, if a person can live with zune crap (i don't see why not since people have living with iTunes for so long) its WP8, geeks would obviously prefer android...no room for apple except for those swayed by its brand name...WP8 also would have cheaper handsets in each flavour, a huge +
[Galaxy S III General] sxi200:
Apple just released the 4S.5 lol.

What a joke. 5 years and still the same phone.

I can tell the difference between S1, S2 & S3. Thank you Samsung for providing a fresher, better experience with each upgrade.
[Galaxy S III General] joey jojo:
so Apple has stolen ideas from Samsung!!!!! screen stays on by using the front camera... iStay?!?!?! WTF. face recognition and photos while video recording!!! ha ha, apple might as well give that money back to Samsung!!!

---------- Post added at 06:59 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:57 PM ----------

No offence bro, but if you have zero interest, then click the back button and browse the forum. but FYI the iphone 5 has ripped off some of the GS3 features! lol
[Galaxy S III General] cptnappy:
well the iPhone 5 was just announced a few minutes back and sad to say... it just a bump of a few numbers in the iPhone (resolution, slimness, processor etc..); its basically the 4S but made slimmer, lighter, faster and still-boring. will definitely get the Note 2 now!
[Galaxy S III General] jonny68:
because im a regular on these forums and XDA and these type of posts do not belong in these forums but in the off topic forums.
[Galaxy S III General] pro4ever:
its a iphone 4ss
[Galaxy S III General] HtcDesire2:
Apple Sucks.. What a pathetic features : :P

So just to confirm, the screen is 16:9 ish. No NFC in there, no wireless charging and price stays at $199, $299 and $399 for the 16GB, 32GB and 64 on a two year contract. 8GB iPhone 4 and 16GB iPhone 4S for free and $99. No 3GS. Preorder starts from 14 September. More countries getting the phone from 28 September onboard. 100 countries and 240 carriers by the end of the year.
[Galaxy S III General] joey jojo:
Im also a regular, and while these types of threads probably dont belong here, its a talking point as to how different the new iphone 5 is compared to our gs3's. and from what i have seen, apple didnt outdo samsung this time. the gs3 is still the better device.
[Galaxy S III General] barondebxl:
The iPhone 5 is an upgrade from the iPhone 4s, but it's not impressive. Apple cannot impress us anymore to be honest. Android is the specs king ,not to sound like a fanboy. I cannot believe that that foxconn guy said the next iPhone would "put the S3 to shame...."
[Galaxy S III General] winwiz:
As a hardcore android fan, I think this phone is nice!

It just lacks the X factor. I reckon the Lumia 920 and the S3 LTE will give it a good run for its money
[Galaxy S III General] cptnappy:
:good: it just put itself to shame instead. most of the features are pretty old and are already in Android phones, S3 and Note 2 will roll over this little pea called iphone 5.
[Galaxy S III General] HtcDesire2:
Is this what Apple claimed that they will make galaxy s 3 a shame.. I am feeling shameless and Apple must feel shame for such a poor show.. Oh what a waste of time watching the event
[Galaxy S III General] lawtq:
Exactly how I feel. Talk about deflated. I expected more, much more. Am a s3 owner but this thing is so far behind note 2, which I'm getting, its amusing. Bye crapple
[Galaxy S III General] bala_gamer:
lol they havent mentioned NFC anywhere?? dont they have it?
[Galaxy S III General] :
no nfc..

i really like the white iphone 5's back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Galaxy S III General] sxi200:
Extraordinary development! Massive IOS UI change!

Icon grid is now 6x4. That's a whole extra row for app icons.

Who needs Widgets!!!
[Galaxy S III General] jason11:
but they are very good at fooling others.

(how they are gonna ditch their vintage mobile cable.)
[Galaxy S III General] Theshawty:
Yeah, a WHOLE extra row for icons? I mean, wow! Haven't they exceeded themselves with innovation?

I mean, who wouldn't LOVE an extra....row....of....icons.....Yeah, android launchers haven't been able to do this for years already. Having screen after screen packed with icons gives me the creeps. I mean, a clean style with a nice wallpaper, one or two icons and one widget, is all I need.

Dolan style: Apol, pls

[Galaxy S III General] ruk212:

[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] woodstok:
Hi,

I'm in the UK where 4G LTE is just being introduced and i'm in the process of getting an 'HTC ONE XL'.

Its going to be on the new everything-everywhere network (t-mobile - Orange)

So because here in the UK we don't have Rogers, Telstra, or AT&T at all, can i please ask the moderators of this forum to change the the name to "HTC ONE XL" after all these forums are focused on phones not network operators, and as this is an international and (I hope) inclusive forum it is simply irrelevant what network the phone is attached to.

Thanks

Paul.
[AT&T, Rogers HTC One X, Telstra One XL] SkookDroid:
It is relevant due to the fact these versions of the phone are completely different than the international version so they titled it this to try and stop people from flashing the wrong stuff and bricking their phones.(which happened too many times to count)
