The 808 looks like a nicer phone due to the 5 needing the bumper.
Im not a big fan of armour plating phones when actually using them.

I thought that and then thought if he took the pictures with the opposing phone, no wonder the 808 looks so pretty. The iPhone 5 makes pictures look warmer than they are where if he took the picture of the 5 with the 808 is looks cooler and more natural.
Or maybe it just looks like a nice screen.

The screen on the 808 performs better in certain conditions... the 5 has better calibrated color reproduction, and its also better for reading text due to the higher DPI. The 808 is better under direct sunlight, and therefore its better for outside photography.. its almost as if Nokia made the screen with the camera in mind.
In terms of design.. very subjective.. I would say the iphone 5 is better looking, but the 808 feels better in hand, which is strange since its plastic, but the iPhone 5 has those sharp edges... its not as pleasant to hold, the 808 is better thought out in terms of ergonomics, despite the "hump".
Either way, I will take the 808 over the 5 any day, for me its the better smartphone.
Satnav in action and a panorama from the foxconn product.. very nice

I just completed reading the Nexus 4 review on GSM arena, and noticed the 808 has the highest constrast ratio of any smartphone. So yeah, they probably did it to make the camera ultra usable outdoors. The 5 is second though so it too is good.
Heh, did the 5' satnav try to take you off a cliff or down a road that doesnt exist on your journey ??

^ hah no... haven't had a real problem with it actually, but I think its very much regional.. they kind of had to get silicon valley and California in general right because imagine all their employees getting lost all over San Jose because of their own f**k up..

Saw that, thats pretty bad. I dont understand why Apple didnt just pull their maps app and use Google maps again.

Have noticed Carphone stores along with Phones4U & now Verizon in US offering discounted iphone 5's. I reckon they ain't shifting them as much anymore

At first i read your post i thought you wrote discontinued..
Wishful thinking huh. Well here in the UK the SGS3 is the best selling phone, i see so many people with it now its totally unbelievable. Well done to Samsung and UK consumers.

A lot of people here in the US have either the 4s or the 4 ... and both of these provide 95% of the core functionality that people expect from an "iphone" ..the 5 offers very little over the previous two generations.
Despite that, they will sell more iphone 5s than the combined android sells of HTC, Sony, and LG...
here another silly thing I found out today... so iOS would let you record video no matter which way you turn the phone, and it will show you the right orientation on screen, so today I recorded a video clip, played back fine on the device.. got home, played it.. its fuking upside down 
On the 808 it won't trick you into thinking that you can do that.. all the controls on screen are fixed, pointing the right away.. on iOS they all rotate..

LMFAO !!
My SGS3 has done that with stills before. Thats just typical of modern day operating systems. Symbian never makes that mistake in my experience.
