Its close competition with s3 and a couple of other ones. People just look at the difference between 4 and 5 and see what type of change there is. When the phone is already great, you dont need to change anything. I got my iphone 5 recently and love it! I had the 4 before and had the upgrade for $200 and got my 4 sold for $200. So I basically got a free phone. I tried using an iphone 4 and it feels so small lol. Overally, I love the iphone 5. I just think people are just anti-apple now even tho theres legit comparisons with other phones that might be better. But ive heard the same stuff with iphone4. In reality, this only happens online and in commercials.
