What do you guys think of the I phone 5?

Name the STUFF thats good on the S3 ?
thats e-z the s3 is what good about the s3 lol well since u challenged one of my droid fanatics lol jk lets lay it all on the table.this isnt even about the chassis of the phone what makes the s3 is the os and the components! tell me can u connect an apple phone to your large hdtv? can u swap the battery for a extended battery that will help your phone last longer? can you install a form of recovery on a apple phone and create backs ups? can you expand your phone's memory with a sd card? can you modify the phone the way you want it tweak the ram perhaps over clock the cpu on a apple phone? can u answer yes to atleast one of those questions? if they all answer no then people following a useless fad and they should feel bad about that.

I agree that the new iPhone is nothing special, but all this icrap, icult stuff, and saying that it's absolute crap is just plain stupid.
Maybe other people would take android fanatics more seriously if we didn't sound like we were arguing over our favorite superhero at the age of 9.
True, the iphone was/is a great piece of technology and we all need to give it some credit as it was the device that kick started it all off.

Is it top dawg anymore??? umm no and still falling down the hill. Does this mean its no longer a viable device?? No still a great device, if you dont mind its drawbacks, like the grade school ui, it being so locked down even after jailbreaking it.

Now the argument with the HTC and Samsung build quality.. well Moto beats both in that dept with HTC coming is 2nd and then LG. Samsungs just have that cheap feel to them, BUT dont let that fool you, the quality is there, but some of us oldschool farts like that solid feel metal gives lol.

Some of the answers here are very biased. The IPhone 5 is an amazing phone. It looks good and works very well. Sure i like the S3 a little better but that is because of the OS more than anything. But other people here saying that the phone is POS are just idiots or haters.

Really? Would you care to post a review of this phone which you have never held?

There are adapters that you can hook your iPod/iPad/iPhone to your TV with and I'm sure you can overclock them. The rest is all no though.
