ok lets get serious. is there is a obsessive need to multitask then s3 won't disapoint. other then that u won't miss s3 too much.

for example, i do this very regularly (work related):  i leave my skype on, whatsapp, viber, and internet, and reading excel spreadsheets. i switch apps back and forth very frequently, hence the multitasking. i didn't say ip4s cannot do this. but s3 does it better. i can give specific reasons why s3 does it better but i will just leave it as that and hope u trust me.
*
Don't really think so, if for multi task I prefer iOS more than android. Android is quite laggy where iOS is more stable than android, iOS is also user friendly than android and interface nicer and straight forward smile.gif One more thing I love iOS is because I found that every new version of iOS still support for older generation iDevices and still running quite smooth unlike android thumbup.gif

Some of my friend upgrade their Galaxy Note to ICS android 4.0.3 and now they are quite suffering because the entire OS is not running smoothly and laggy than the previous version, can only say most of the android devices better use back the version with the original version ship together with the phone. iOS never suffer these kind of problem even my friend using iPhone 3GS with update to iOS 5.1.1 still run very smooth which make him feel very satisfy when using it. My friend he own this 2 device iPhone 3GS and Galaxy Note and he told me he would prefer iOS rclxms.gif

Now you can tell which one is better when you compare Galaxy Note have a higher spec running the latest version Android and a lower spec iPhone 3GS also running the latest version iOS yet the higher spec still loose to the lower spec iPhone 3GS in term of smoothness tongue.gif

IOS gives me a feel of no laggies at all..
my friends phone on android.. slide screen also will lagg lagg ><

in terms of usage i really prefer IOS, but on screen size.. i prefer note size ! laugh.gif laugh.gif

Yeah, my friends Galaxy Note also have the same problem. A bit laggy when slide screen, after upgrade to ICS this problem become more obvious biggrin.gif This is the most important user experience same as OS that running in laptop, when you open 4-5 apps in Windows and Mac then you will know Windows is seriously lag but the Mac still capable of running multiple desktop same compare to Windows and Mac thumbup.gif

why you go and talk about other android devices? i am talking about s3 in relation to ip4s. i have no comments about the other samsung devices coz i don't have them. but i did have a old galaxy s1, and let me tell u its lag is no big deal unless u are a lagaholic. so what if it lags  for like 0.01 secs slower than the iphone? on top of that there are people who pimp their phone and mess it up so much and then when it lags so badly, he will show it to the iphone user and then a conclusion is made, up to a point people generally believe it as dooms day for android devices.

now for a specific example. this is not hearsay. i experience it myself. i didn't hear this from my grandmother's brother's pet rooster like most people.
open skype on iphone, talk to your girlfriend, ask her if she can see your video. now from skype, goto dropbox (in my case its dropbox, coz she said she took a picture of her naked butt and placed it in dropbox). when i go to dropbox, my video will FREEZE on her phone. and when i return then only the video of me will continue. so what is the big issue u ask me? the big issue is she missed my face expression when i saw her naked butt pic! now if my skype is running on s3, this won't happen.

to me that's a big issue. much bigger then a 0.01 lag issue everybody is shouting about. btw, i know for a fact people may see this as a small issue. but that's ok. different people have different weights to an issue.
*
Since I'm comparing the latest version OS running on older generation device in term of smoothness of course I have to take Galaxy Note to compare, why on earth should I take S3 to compare when it's still the latest generation model running with the latest version of OS? We don't have to talk about how smooth the latest model smartphone running with the latest version of OS because it's sure running smoothly and it's a must to every smartphone.

I also din't hear any grandmother's brother's pet rooster story as I already stated MY FRIEND and I'll addon here she doesn't know anything about looting or flashing anyway she just use her Galaxy Note for web surfing purpose and din't even put the SIM card in it just connect wifi and surfing the web so now you can tell how original is her phone? Last month she just go and update her firmware to ICS and now she experience a more lagging OS and even you said lag is not a big deal but yet it's still an annoying issue, example would you rather prefer an older spec computer maybe pentium 4 as processor for gaming or you would rather choose Intel Core i7 for gaming? Even if you are used to the laggy issue but would you feel satisfy when you change to a more smoothness phone?

If it's really just 0.01 sec lag for the whole usage then it's still ok, but if you keep on using it and do you think it's still a 0.01 sec lag? Seriously it will sure drag the user experience down, that's what technology nowadays are trying to solve this laggy issue. Anyway I understand you got your point on the video freeze as it's just the same as Facetime when you minimize it to the multitask. If my words is making you pissed off, I would apologize here. Peace notworthy.gif

first of all i am not pissed off. this is the way i talk. i am sarcasticaholic.

like i said i no comment on galaxy note. but i have a few hearsay stories where my friend said 'best la galaxy note with ICS". but anyway. no comments.

but we have to talk about s3 vs iphone coz this is the topic header. i have both ipad and s3. if u talk about smoothness both are comparable. I have 50++ apps installed on my s3 and the same number on my ipad. and both are just as smooth (actually, ipad is a bit more smooth on the scrolling framerate when scrolling the browser)

forget the grandmother's story. Lag have different weights for different people. i won't argue if its an issue for u. but from my galaxy s1 i don't have issue of the lag, however i do have issue with its multitasking. on s1 once u open skype, u can't do anything else because skype will hog all the resources and not leave u much to do other things effectively. but on s3 i can even be on gps sygic and talk on skype at the same time,  and still maintain smoothness in both apps as i switch from one to another!

the iphone multitasking issue is a big big issue. it means i can't view the candid side of my cal-lee. simple things like playing a game with your kids and seeing their face reaction is a priceless thing. i hope ios6 and iphone 5 will solve this issue. but i don't think so. coz if they had i am sure their marketing dept would have have hyped it by now.

Yeah, based on your situation yeah S3 is more suitable for you since you want to capture the expression all the time smile.gif

IOS is better

now i already addicted with all idevice

Yeah same here rclxms.gif Love my iPhone and iPad all very nice design and convenient to use, MacBook also especially the multi touch track pad is very awesome drool.gif

Lagging? Hmm.. Been an iphone user for 3 years and bought galaxy nexus early of the year but was stolen last month, so, upgraded to galaxy s3. I'm more than happy owning an android phone.. So, why need to wait? smile.gif

I mean the older model phone like Galaxy Note running the latest version Android, but I tried Galaxy S3 too and I don't got any lagging issue when playing it and the ICS on Galaxy S3 seems better than the previous want smile.gif

jb vs not-jb, what difference the most ?

Usually people jailbreak iPhone is due to the limitation on original OS, with original iOS people can't do much customization on it so jailbreak will be an option so whoever like to modify their phone kaw kaw or would like to install cracked apps without paying it then jailbreak suit these type of user the most. Whoever feel the original iOS is the best already, nice interface, don't want to do any customization already then will just stick to the stock as original iOS also not that bad and I also found that install too many tweaks or modify too much will cause an unstable iOS as apps will keep crashing sad.gif

Yes, android still no match to IOS in terms of user experience and intuitiveness. Dont know how to explain. When u change to android, you will realise how good ios is.

Yeah, same experience here when trying out friends Galaxy Note also feel that Android is actually quite not user friendly. When I go into the application menu my eye become like this ---> rclxub.gif Maybe too many row or column of apps and I found that I want to find one apps maybe Setting or Gallery also hard to see maybe I used to iOS 4x4 biggrin.gif

Yes.. Android is a pure battery drainer. Those who said ios battery run out fast.. Wait till u use android... U will scream by lunch time.. N of cos it will lay longer if u switch everything off... I still remember calling htc customer care on battery issue, they ask me to switch off 3G, wifi, the brightness change to 10% n the battery should last longer.. My next question to her was.. "then what's the point for me to pay 2k for a phone that cannot be use?" u try n guess what did she reply...

So finally I go back to ios n use win7.5 as 2nd phone. Android? My wife using g.note n always complaint.

I guess she told you pay 2k for just calling and SMS biggrin.gif

Don't know if this was already mentioned in this thread but anyway here goes: Just buy S3 first...when iPhone 5 comes out sell your s3 and buy iphone 5. Probably just need to top up less than RM500 depending on how much GB you buy for the iPhone.

Maybe not only RM500 because Samsung phone price drop very fast as they come out new model every few months biggrin.gif
