iPhone 5 - (Now turned hate thread by android fanbois)

[Bellend]

Going to order one, wait for sell out and eBay prices to go crazy, whether that be over chrimbo or not, sell it and buy a new phone, SIII or just an iPhone 5 direct from Apple when in stock and pocket a few hundred.

I doubt it will be a sellout Dude the 4S was not a sell out

 I agree, they don't have Steve Jobs to sell it this time and he was a master at explaining how much you need something you didn't know you needed.

interesting blog read in response to the BBC's hate article

Great response to Dan Lyons BBC viewpoint..

There are a number of errors in that article too, slimmest smartphone in the world eh? 

Google and Microsoft don't just R&D tech products they can sell you, they delve into non-tech and biological research too, things that consumers wouldn't see. The evil empire that is Google lets their employees use 20% of their work time to foster their own projects and research - and have many research labs for various things....

Apple didn't invent the touch screen phone in 2007, they made it more appealing than it was.

You all say this but it will out sell any other phone in the uk market on a yearly basis

Thats because Apple is more appealing to those that do not work or enjoy technology. It's a phone for the masses really. All they care about is getting the 'latest' one out! Become more of a fashion accessory than anything else tbh..

im looking forward to it, not because its the iphone 5, only because the screen on my HTC sensation XL is smashed, bought the iphone 4 when released and got bored, thinking the same things going to happen with the 5  then android it is again
