Samsung Galaxy S III dethrones iPhone 4S as smartphone sales champ for Q3 2012

When you choke learn to keep it cool theres no reason to make a fool of yourself with post like that.

Say NO to the kool-aid.

Are you saying the iPhone 4S is the better phone or that you personally see no reason to upgrade?

No reason to upgrade, the iphone 5 is the worst upgrade of all iphones.

Nice try.

from Sprint Q2 2012 Earnings: Net Loss Widens To $1.4B, 1.5M iPhones Sold

1.5 million (singular) as of the end of Q2. Meaning that the most they would have as of Q3 is probably around 2 million.

Seeing has how T-mobile is smaller than Sprint and that you can already use an iPhone on t-mobile... they would most probably sell less than half what sprint did.

Argue if you want, but I have had T-mobile for the past 6 years.

You read that wrong. it says "The company says it sold 1.5 million iPhones in the quarter". That's in just that one quarter. You can bet they sold more when it was brand new in Q4 of 2011 and Q1 2012. Then another million or so Q3. Even if it were just a million each quarter, that would be over 4 million sold so far. T mobile has over 34 million customers and you can bet at least a few million of them would get iPhones. So as I said, if it were on t mobile, it would have millions more sold. Thanks for playing

Yea, a bigger screen, the addition of LTE and a processor that's over twice as fast is a terrible upgrade. LOL

Okay, so I'm pretty sure you can't be serious now.

Im very serious.

Im very serious.

Uh huh. So the 4S->5 is a worser upgrade than the 2G->3G? It's tied with the 4 for being the best update yet, I'd argue it's better...

LTE sure if its available maybe the usa is not the only country in the world ? A processor twice as fast and "bigger" screen yet not use for any of those such a awesome upgrade lol

Its amazing how the kool-aid works, last year none of these was important but now is the best thing ever keep justifying your "big" upgrade.

Nope, both do the same the iphone 5 brought nothing new to the table.

You're impossible. So if the iPhone 5 had some exclusive software feature like Siri, then and only then would it be a worthy upgrade? Because it seems that no hardware improvements can appease you.

You need to understand that hardware means nothing when the os cant do anything with it, Jon Ivey is taking part of the ios team so next year i have big hopes for ios7

Im not impossible

I can slightly agree with that. I think the only software upgrade the 4S is missing is a photo while doing video.

I think in the next iOS the 5 will pull ahead software wise and it will make me want it. However that will probably be when the next iPhone is introduced I guess. If so then I'd rather have that then the 5.
