Although the iPhone 5 didn't come out with mad features as I had expected, I still prefer it to the much decorated and popular Samsung Galaxy s3. I love the iOS but I’m not going to base my reasons out of my love for the iOS; just facts. The reasons in the post are simply reflecting me and nothing else.
Here Are My Reasons
Weight and Thickness
I love a thin phone and the iPhone 5 is much more lighter than Samsung Galaxy S3. iPhone 5 weighs 3.95 ounces while the S3 weighs 4.7 ounces. Although S3 is thin, it isn't as thin as I want it to be and the iPhone 5 wins that hands down. That’s just one of the many reasons why I would still go for the iPhone 5.
Operating System
The iPhone 5 comes with a much better operating system, iOs 6. As far as I am concerned, it is a lot better than the Android OS. Even though the S3 came with Jelly bean, the user interface is still not as cool as that of iPhone 3GS, talkless of iPhone 5. Believe me, iOS offers "smoother" user experience.
Apps
The iPhone has more quality apps in iTunes than Android has in its market and I’m such a great app freak right now. I seriously like a lot of apps and the iPhone has got more and better apps than the Android. There are loads of junks in Google play and reason why your Android smartphone can easily be infected by an app from Google Play compared to the iTunes which is free of such shits.
Simplicity
When it comes to how simple they both are, I can tell you that the iPhone is simpler. Although I haven’t really seen or touched the iPhone 5 in reality, I can talk from the likes of the iPhone 4s and iPhone 4. They are simply easy to navigate through than the Android would ever be.
I’ve used an Android phone and I still use one and I have also had the pleasure of wielding an iPhone 4s for six months so I know what I’m talking about.
Swag
I live in Africa, Nigeria to be precise. In my country, the iPhone has more swag than any other phone you can think of and I’m the kind of guy that goes with the trending stuffs. If you own an iPhone in my hood, people look at you as if you are a rock star and that’s the kind of fame I like. Just being me. winks**
Like I said earlier everything in this article reflects upon what I think and like.

Love to hear from you.

This reason makes me sick, no wonder Nigerians are very corrupt. You are the type of person that will buy an iPhone for a poor girl just for one night. iiiish
Well what can i say?
DeleteWas just voicing out my thoughts.
Anyway thanks for your comment
The iPhone 5 Map app is defective so they said, and Apple has apologize for the app error with a promise to create a better one. That is one error found with the new iPhone 5. If the Samsung galaxy is perfect, then i think S galaxy got advantage over it.
ReplyDeleteYeah, They have promised to updated it asap.
DeleteThanks
