I often experience minor crashes with my iPhone 4S, in that it'll often throw me out of an app. I'm guessing that this is due to the memory getting clogged up, as it happens mainly in memory intensive apps, like safari or photo editing software. I wouldn't think this will be an issue with the 5 though as it has twice the ram

That's what I was saying in my post. The iPhone from 3 to 4s crashed a lot. But people never mention it like how they always say android crashes. I really think its how apple handles it. If anything crashes just kick the user out of what they were doing and go to home screen. No warning or any info on what happened.
Android on the other hand tells you what happened and if you want to report it.
Google should adopt apples way and just hide it from the user.

I don't get this whole its plastic and is therefore cheap. The s3 feels really nice And looks nice too. I don't see the cheapness that people say. When the iPhone 3 was plastic I didn't hear that complaint. My original droid was built a lot more solid and had a screen that was like 260 PPI compared to the iPhone 3gs 160 PPI but I never heard complaints then.

I don't mind the frame being plastic myself, but must confess I really did not like the back panels thinness, and flimsiness (both tended to flex) on my Samsung SGS2 or Samsung Galaxy Nexus.

Had a BB Bold 9900 and didn't like it on that too.

I always had the fear it was going to break or snap off, which whilst it never did, was always at the back of my mind.

It was ultimately the solid poly-carbonate rear shell that made me choose the one X over a SG3, Plus the fact I can just buy rear housing and swap my black one X into a white one X (already done and it was simple too) or in fact buy the new OneX+ shell and pretend I've got an upgrade :)

It's just a matter of taste rather than anything else.
