+ 1
Tried out the HTC One X and couldn't wait to get back my iPhone 4s and back into the comfy Apple eco system.
Tried to like it but I just couldn't. Was too big. Don't get me wrong it's a beautiful screen but I like to be able to whip my phone out of my pocket and mess around with it with one hand which I can do with iPhone. Not so much with the 4.7" screen. You can, but it is a lot more challenging. I'm also way too invested with iTunes. Syncing with iTunes was a pain in the arse! Plus the droid's Bluetooth didn't play well with my cars stereo system and I have a 2012 Kia Optima. Don't know why that was a problem. My iPhone works seemlessly. I really do appreciate my iPhone 4s a lot more now. I know it's cheesy but it's true..it just works.
Id say it is the Kia's fault. The iPhone still dont work with a Toyota without having to use the cord. Android works well wirelessly with them.
There's very little chatter about Apple/iPhone on Android forums I visit too
That's because MBR is very lenient compared to any Android forum I visited. If Apple fanboy's started excessive trolling over in an Android forum, instant ban before you can blink your eyes.
Right because when the iPhone was shown in 2007 everyone said it was a Blackberry clone. Now that's interesting. Funny how neither RIM or MSFT took legal action. Their public reaction was dismissive and they mocked Apple. They both made it damn clear that the iPhone was going to fail.
Whoops.
And you fandroid zombies need to stop your half ass researched lies about the LG Prada and Samsung F700. Both were not show till after January 9th, 2007 when the iphone was shown at Macworld.
Plus Apple has a letter written to the FCC in late 2006 about keeping iPhone docs classified till after Macworld.
Wrong. The Prada was shown in the the fall of 2006. You fail. From Apple Insider.
"After the iPhone's debut, it was LG, not Samsung, that complained Apple had copied its design. LG had actually demonstrated its own full-screen smartphone in the fall of 2006, and like the iPhone, it had a largely black, minimalist front. It was first to market with a capacitive touchscreen, the same type subsequently used by the iPhone"
that's extremely late, considering it's just a minor 4.1 update.
there will already probably be a new Nexus at the time too.
Samsung updates FTL.
I agree, but there's a difference between trolling and simply stating how much you like the product and discussing.
If people posted why they prefer the iPhone in a civil way they wouldn't get banned from the forums I visit.
Yes they would. They would be banned for bringing up Apple in a positive light too much.
And to sit here and act as if Android users don't troll here is trolling in itself.
No. No they wouldn't.
I didn't say Android users don't troll here.
I would say not all Android users troll here. I find some iOS diehards troll just as much. I won't name names 
Extremely late? We are in Q3 now. But, regardless, where has it been posted that the S3 would get JB at any specific timeframe? And is this the int'l or US version? I doubt anyone with a US S3 will get JB any time soon, since the carriers take an extra 6 months to load their crapware onto it and then certify it.
That's like two and a half months after the official release date of jelly bean for the galaxy nexus. Not long at all really.
Nowhere have I seen an official timeframe for SGIII getting JB. And like the above poster said, who knows when the US variants will get it. Its up to the carriers. The release of ICS on the SGII was different for each carrier. Go Nexus and buy unlocked.
I have just come from android to ios and both have pros and cons but I find ios smoother and more reliable yes there may be app crashes time to time but not as much as my android did and there are more apps that utilise the hardware on ios but that's my opinion
Last time I checked a quarter consists of 3 months. You really think Samsung is giving an update in the first month of the quarter?
Good luck with that.
Still doesn't mean the US variants will get it v

HAHAHAHAA wow...you're either completely unfamiliar with WM and BB's or completely unfamiliar with iOS.
So then you root and flash a JB ROM when they are out in a few weeks. One of the great things about Android, you don't have to depend on a manufacturer or carrier for updates like you do with Apple
I wouldn't go that far. While yes Apple did copy the iPhone's design from the Prada, they most certainly did not copy Blackberry or Windows Mobile. iOS is nothing like either of those OS'. I used Windows Mobile for years before the iPhone came out, and I can tell you, it is not even similar in the least bit.
No, he's right. The GS3 isn't hard to hold at all. I had the Galaxy Nexus prior to getting the Galaxy S3, and I was concerned it might be too big, but it actually is only a hair larger than the GNex (and you have to look hard to see the difference in size). The GS3 is probably on the larger end of one-handed operation. Any larger and it will probably be too big for comfortable one-handed operation. Mine is comfortable in hand, and can be used one-handed, and I have average sized hands.

Right Here
Its been posted on a handful of articles. That is just one of them. Yeah it could be sooner.... That i agree with but you still cant walk into a store and pick one up yet. Maybe tomorrow will be the first day. Maybe Monday. If i get JB by October, ill be fine with it.
