Its not iphone needs quad core. Its dual core already over di. S3 needs quad core. I sold my HTC One X its so called quad core too lag and alot bugs.

Like windowsphone single core also faster than android with dual core it will beat android quad core.

Dont dream la samsung only can capture market share cant beat iphone sales.

Iphone launch till now still RM2199
Your S3 2months already drop at least RM300 le.

iphone or to be exact ios (apple) have only one product/manufacturer so their price drop is slower then the rest of the phone laugh.gif , just imagine if ios like android and have more then 1 manufacturer or more model. like sony/samsung/motorola/nokia/etc brand produce phone with ios as the main os, their resale value will be the same like android.

retail price for iphone is fix, while shop selling price is subjective. brows.gif

other then that, blackberry phone one is good example imo if apple have multiple product. For an example curve-not so high resale value (middle/low end model), while certain model (bold series) is pricier.

btw same can be said for wp, imo their current resale value is worst then android, even price drop is faster then android.

It's more a joke when ppl said up to date their pc is their phone. Samsung CEO must be rofl on the floor. Haha he might said I just fitted a quad core my customer intelligent fall  for my trap and it will drop price.

From a 15 inch screen downgrade to 3.5inch to 5inch and a 15inch downgrade to 7 to 10inch and most of what a computer can do in a proper manner their phone can't.

Speaker from stereo downgrade to mono so proud le they update le hahaha.

From extreme gaming from direct x9 to direct x11 experience becoming more realistic on pc,  the games on their phone look like games 10 years ago haha.

Ppl from stereo upgrade to 7.1 channel di with ASIO/dolby digital

Ppl browse Internet from 1920 x 1200 to 2560 x 1080 resolution now they downgrade the resolution and said update hahaha on mobile phone. You are going backwards and you are proud because the new backwards is the new update haha.

Sorry haha no offense it's just funny.

Samsung can't do what iPhone do they only can copy and make hardware. If tomorrow android decided to stop their current updates and start a new OS . Samsung sayonara. Their bada is dead and it's worse than Symbian

But s3 quad core consider as mobile phone highest processor it's like i7 not i3.

Furthermore this i3, i5 and i7 real computer are customizable and upgradable.

Your s3 is not so you can't really compare.

If lag I can change the processor or add ram.

For me I more concern on resell value.

For desktop since its customizable and upgradable I will get a spec that can last me at least 5 years.

imo, other aspect to see is the future support. since imo android is power hunger, perhaps quad core will be fully use in the coming new rom (after JB perhaps)?

if put outdated hardware (which work in the current hardware) but future rom/os version? it might not run smoothly/lag.

example: my sis n my officemate mention their iphone 3gs slow after upgrade to the ios 5, while my coz said her bb curve 9300 lag with bb6. afaik all of the has done hard reset.

in the end some revert to old os and some upgrade the phone laugh.gif

Jelly Bean (android 4.1) is a totally new benchmark in the OS although 99% of it looks like ICS (4.0).  ppl who says android lags or crashes a lot can now really shut up.  it makes a single core old phone like my desire HD responds like a dual core (no shxt, seriously) and is a bit faster (in UI performances and responsiveness) than a galaxy S2 which I compared side by side. 

the main problem with android is that most of the big manufacturers uses their own UI (or 'skins' if u prefer that term) like what samsung did with their Touchpiss UI that hogs too much resources and quite heavy, that's why it drags down their phone's performance.  and that's why most android phones needs so much processing power (quad core and such) to counter the heavily modified versions of android.  this is why iOS doesn't need so many cores to work smoothly, because it's as simple as drinking water, and it's not a full OS, it's just an app launcher, just like what android's app drawer works with rows and rows of icons, when u touch an icon, it just opens an app.  android is entirely different, it has a desktop, it has live widgets, it has stock live wallpapers, it can have tons of stuff running in the background simultaneously, and now at last, google solved the problem.  even with a full desktop that i machine gunned with live widgets and a full blown live wallpaper, it doesn't even lag a bit.

have you notice iphone keyboard are pretty accurate even the screen is small. My HTC One X even so big screen so hard to type further more i am those type of person can type without looking on physical keyboard.

For me why i prefer iphone their updates are amazingly fast and even older generation phones/ipad are still supporting latest games. Like my bro ipad 1 it still can play all the latest games like batman arkham something, asphalt 7, reckless 2 and etc.

When you use even it crashes it restart and once a blue moon might hang. When they have better camera on android ill consider changing.
