Why don't you get a full blown GS3, in a few weeks loads will be on Ebay for reasonable prices - Rikken's will anyway  |

Excited about the next iPhone?? What?? The next one will be a 5s which means a minor upgrade with same look
Yeah the design will more less be the iPhone 5
With a snappier chip but I do hope there will be more
Changes, there iOS 7 aswell!
Apple are very silent till nearer the launch
I've heard there's 2 phones coming out basic one and upped
One if this is true or not I don't know
Will have to wait either way I'm looking forward to it
I'm not getting it straight away either cos I want to abandon
Network for "3"
Sorry guys about apple talk back to S4 now 
I'm actually curious about the next iPhone, I hope they up the screen again to like 4.5" and give us a new design. I read that iOS7 is an overhaul of iOS now that Jony Ive is in-charge of iOS, expect less flamboyance but expect a more clean look, much like how Apple's hardware is designed.
I'm interested to see what he does in the next iOS to
I wasn't happy that they mucked about with the music side
Of the phone adding that podcast app I preferred the old way
Where the phone had everything under one roof in music
I still like the smallness of my 3.5 screen on my 4S
My phone is coming up for nearly 2 years old, not once
Have I wanted to sell it or get rid of it like I have with so many
Other phones lol
Roll on next iPhone launch date btw
@ bonovox. The move to 3 is personally cos of the lack
Of data I have at the sec even 2gb doesn't suffice my needs
With a hungry iPhone lol

Yeah,well I use tons of data on Three and never have any issues. With 15 quid per month top up and 300 mins,3,000 texts and unlimited data cannot be sniffed at. Even been Wi Fi tethering for months on my pc with it  Rarely have an issue with Three(apart from upgrading network times) & the other networks should do the same imo. The iphone has been rated the best on Three. Anyway going off topic

Yep I'm interested in 3 All you can eat data and tethering
Plan £36 plus a small additional cost for the handset
It's basically what I'm paying at the min but not with unlimited
Data
I'm sure if anyone is in the need of a Samsung 4 then this is
A good plan to have with it too not just for my iPhone 5S or 6 lol

So much for OCTA core crap by Samsung. Exynos version scores higher in only Antutu and Geekbench. In others it trails Snapdragon 600 and GPU performance is same as Xperia Z :roll:

Hi randomuser, I know you were in a crazy rush to post rubbish about Samsung the moment you found these but it would be nice to have an actual link to where those benchmarks come from and when they were done? They are nowhere near consistant with other benchmarks done of the Exynos Octa version.

Oh it does get so boring after a while when you realise arguing about which phone is better or faster is a waste of time and energy. We Windows phone 8 users are so content and happy:-) Have a nice day

I had already posted these but anyway, guess it was just convenient for you to try ignore them eh?
Samsung Galaxy S4 with Exynos 5 Octa benchmarks outscore every Android out there
http://www.phonearena.com/new[....]y-Android-out-there_id41292#4-
http://www.gsmarena.com/galax[....]s_top_the_charts-news-5769.php
And the ownage continues with the latest benchmarking app, GS4 owning every other Android including the "also ran" Z:
Basemark X 1.0 test launches on Android: Galaxy S4 ranks on top
http://www.phonearena.com/new[....]Galaxy-S4-ranks-on-top_id41718
So it's not just AnTuTu and Geekbench quit trying to make it seem as if that Z is in the same league
Anandtech still have to post the final benchmarks of the Exynos version it seems, the S600 GS4 was already beaten by the Octa in most benchmarks, so if the Exynos 5 Octa is "crap" then the S600 and the rest of the other SoCs must pure shit I guess.

The main point of octa core was for battery saving. If it can give out better battery performance under similar usage as compared to s600, then I guess its a win? I am no longer focused on benchmarks as I used to be earlier.
