I feel the total opposite about it, I don't get the Apple hype. It's hipstery and lame to pay so much for something that you could get something else that is way much better in performance and quality than apple. It's like the hype is keeping apple going and I'm just waiting for it to die off.

What bugs me is that the front panel is still the same since the first iphone, how hard can it be to just have a new front design.

Other than that the durability of this sapphire front is impressive.

Watched a video from mkbhd on youtube where you can see he is pushing his knife quite hard into the front panel without leaving damage behind.

Why is this so exciting news? You can still easily destroy the screen.
Did you even watch the video? What kind of crack are you smokin?

i'm the same here. i recently had to unlock my sister's phone via backup and restore on itunes.. took something like 2 hours. it took about 4 minutes on my android.

i really, really hate itunes and apple's file transfer system too. android is much, much easier for me to use. apple does design their phones a lot better than the competition though.

The display alone won't make Samsung user switch back.

There are just too many great applications on Samsung right now.

This is quite an interesting development, but we'll have to wait and see how it goes.

I prefer iPhones over Android devices, but unlike Apple fanboys, I'm really mad at how they take so long to adopt features that are already on Android. I am still using iPhones just because I don't like the overall feel of Android's UI (it feels kind of sluggish to me) and many customization features don't feel complete.

But that's all I'm going to say since anything else would be way off-topic at this point. Let's not start a flame war.

Forever strong.

iphone does indeed appear to have a more responsive UI.. but their phones feel so monolithic. and your options are way more limited, so i'd never use an iphone.

That's how you destroy it, easily.

Well this is nice for women who keep lots of junk in their bags or for people with kids. If they weatherize the phone it's pretty much idiot proof short of driving a car over it.

Sapphire is a nice material. My Raymond Weil watch has it on the face and I have never scratched it even after hitting it with stucco and a couple of even a chainsaw (don't ask).

At what point is it not worth it to put such nice materials into something that people may replace every year potentially.  The touchscreens in cars don't have sapphire crystal and you keep your car for longer than you keep your phone (although car is usually not as abused - well my kids abuse my car).

I'm glad for two things:

1. Apple is getting smart about screens, I can't tell you how many iPhones I've bought where the description fit "just a little hairline crack" and the screen was totally destroyed or at least partially unusable.

2. The 6 and 6S (?) will be bigger than the 5 I have now, which will be nice but they'll look like mini tablets which will be kind of weird, my iPhone right now is hard enough to keep in my dang pocket so we'll see.

I'm glad Apple is finally breaking out of the mold with some of the stuff coming out in iOS 8 but why did it take so long?

What else could I say?

Here in AUS I see lots of adverts on TV about iphone 5 and some exercise app...

their is a guy lifting weights.. app seems to track that (thats easy I guess)
woman running up steps, app tracks that
guy playing golf and app looks as if its tracking speed etc etc

does the iphone 5 has some fancy hw /app ? if so.. what is it exactly ? It looks pretty cool if its how the advert portrays it.

I think the iPhone (I have one but never use it for anything other than phone calls and text really) has some Nike app and there are probably other apps on the market that track steps, work outs etc. I know one of the iPhones I had had a GI track app that I could email to my doctor when I was going through gallbladder surgery and afterwords so I could let him know what was going on with my stomach.

It really gives a new meaning to "there's an app for that"

What else could I say?

Me in particular don't like Apple, but that is a fucking good glass there. I hope end users will recieve that quality, it must be good for a lifetime of a phone X 2.
