My cellphone (an old shitty flip phone) is dying and I have a free upgrade with the phone carrier. For $99 I can either get an iPhone 5 of the Samsung Galaxy S3. Just curious what peoples opinions are of these two phones.
iPhone 5 of Galaxy S3?

Get the S4Comment
-
invest a couple hundred bucks and get s4 instead...
if you get s3, in a year or 2, it will be close to worthless...
s4 on the other hand you will be able to sell on ebay for a few hundred bucks...
so with some luck, not only you will get a better device, but you could actually come out ahead compared to s3...

I just checked. It looks like the options for my upgrade are $99 for either the iPhone 5 of the Galaxy S3. If I want to pay $200 I can get the Galaxy S4.
It sounds like that might be $100 well spent. To be honest I have never had a Smartphone so anything I get will be better than what I have now, but I do want to make sure I get the best deal I can.Comment

the S3 is a good phone
Iphone when you can deal with itunes - i wont have that shitty program on my computerComment
-
get the HTC one, it is better than the S4 and the iphone is not even in the same discussion

get the s3 if you want to customize the ui and/or fart around with tweaks and mods and such, also if you want to pick your own music player and where you buy music.
the screen on the iphone is better, the ui is *slicker* but not by much. but you are locked into the apple experience.
if you are looking at the best deal strictly on price, it looks like the better money value on the deal is the iphone.Comment

I love my BB Z10. The HTC One was my next pick though. The S4 would be 3rd.XXXRewards - Karups - Boyfun - Jawked. Paying on time since 1997. Contact me at brent [at] xxxrewards.comComment

You're going to have to be either unlocked or jailbroken on either format to do any of the real cool stuff.
But you're not locked into anything be being on a iPhone. I have never used iTunes and have no issue with doing anything on my phone.
And I was a DieHard Android user, still am to an extent.Comment

iPhone 6 should be coming at the end of the year, worth waiting now if you go that wayComment
-
the HTC One is nice too, yes. two of my friends have thatComment

Take the S4 you w won't regret it's the best!I just checked. It looks like the options for my upgrade are $99 for either the iPhone 5 of the Galaxy S3. If I want to pay $200 I can get the Galaxy S4.

The wife and I picked up a pair of S4's a few weeks ago - for slightly under $100 each. Black's cameras (authorized Telus Mobility re-seller) had them on at $179 - but gave us two $50 gift coupons and $35 trade-in for each of our old Motorola Milestones.
Our old contract didn't expire until this September - but we wanted to lock in new 3yr contracts before the CRTC regulations kick in this fall.
Bottom line - we love the new S4's. Lightning fast with the quad core processors and LTE 4G network. 12mp camera is suh-weet, too.Comment

in head to head testing and reviews the Htc one trounces the Samsung
iphones are not even close to either the HTC or the Samsung
you'd probably be happy with either the HTC one or the S4, but people that have tried both overwhelmingly are preferring the HTC one.... google some of the reviews comparing the two head to head, the HTC is the best phone out there right now

the only thing I like about Android is the bigger screen and support for flash. Otherwise I cant stand the operating system. I think the iPhone is WAY easier to use than Android.Comment

Samsung makes good stuff, you should be quite happy with either Galaxy.
Having to use iTunes sucks.Comment

Iphone is old school compared to S4Comment
-
the only thing ill miss is imessage which i use on the macbook and ipad... but damn it iphone and even the new IOS is truly disappointing at this point. Apple should had by now a new phone on the market with significant improvements. This delay on releasing one is going to cost them big time.Comment
-
Why, so Apple can sue them for something else? :P
I always tell people this... if you want to actually own your device, then go with android; if you like your device controlling what you can and cannot do, go with an iCant device.Comment
-
i have the S4 and it "feels" a lot better than the S3. but yeah, still a plastic backside, but it also hurts your feelings a lot less when it gets a scratch

If you're unable to get S4 then get iPhone 5. But seriously if there is no iPhone 5s or iPhone 6 that offers 5" display im off Apple for Galaxy S4 or HTC One.Русня, идите нахуй!Comment
-
True.
But, I want a 5" screen at least. If they fail to introduce a 5" iPhone - fuck em, im out.Русня, идите нахуй!Comment

FIRST, don't get the S3, its not the newest model, you will be full of regret and hatred to those who have the S4, even the water proof one!





This is a question that no one person can truthfully answer!





Why? because it comes down to your own personal preference. Its like asking which flavor of ice cream is best, or does one bottle of water better than another.
I've had BOTH android and iPhones and I prefer the iPhone hands down, but that is me. I like how simple and easy to use they are, plus everything on earth connects to them.
Android on the other hand I didn't like, it was almost going from a mac to a PC but running on some foreign language with some new OS that didn't do what I want.
Best suggestion is to try out both and see, I think you get a 14 day trial with any of them here in the states.Email: Clicky on MeComment

Apple has the better look everything else has Samsung.Comment

I've had both, and IMHO I think that the S4 is the best phone in the world right now.... hands down.

iPhone 5 is a 2-year old technology. Galaxy S4 is a front line. I don't think anything has to be added.Obey the CowgodComment

The S4 Active. Now THIS is a super awesome phone. Metal, shockproof, and waterproof up to 1 meter deep.

A friend who had an iPhone 4 just got this S4 Active. He has only had it a few days and says he loves it. The thing he says he likes the most is that the actual phone part of it sounds better. He said calls on the iPhone always sounded a little muffled, but on the S4 they sound great.Comment

so what did you decided, we are all waiting with baited breath! ??A friend who had an iPhone 4 just got this S4 Active. He has only had it a few days and says he loves it.

It is likely going to be a couple of weeks until I actually get the phone. I think my contract ends and my upgrade date is somewhere around the 15th. That said, I will likely end up either getting the HTC or the S4.
I am not an apple hater and know plenty of people that have them and love them, but I think I would rather have an android phone.
As I read the reviews of them it looks like both the G4 and HTC get great reviews so I will likely end up going into the store and looking at both of them and deciding which one I like the look and feel of better.Comment

right on! you certainly can't go wrong with any of the devices on your list. the technology is insane, i think you will get a kick out of it.It is likely going to be a couple of weeks until I actually get the phone.
