So what am I meant to be getting from this? that people are ignorant? or stupid?

Anyway, I hope Samsung get all the support they can and take Apple the **** out.

Maybe someone told them that with Galaxy SIII they can correctly find their way to the nearest Apple Store to buy iPhone 5.

i absolutely love my S3, it's running superbly here, rooted and all.

i can't keep my hands off it, almost beats touching breasts (because breasts can't run games, emulators and apps)

You lack imagination then
Games: Haven't you ever slapped them titties and watch em wobble, that's gaming at it's best.
Emulator: Haven't you ever used those titties and pretend they are another part of the female anatomy, great emulators.
Apps: See games, how long do they wobble, best seismic app I've seen.

I loved my S3, until my fat assed, big titted hoe sat on it and broke the screen within 3 days of owning it.
Now I'm stuck playing with her breasts until I can get a replacement.

Well, let's just agree that SIII is as sexy as a sexy pair of boobs; both make geeks fap at night.
The only difference is that one is battery-operated while the other likes battery-operated ('things').

This is not a phone discussion thread along the lines of 'oh my S3 is ace I love it' or 'I hate Apple they are evil'. That's all been said or we have threads for that in the mobile section.

Discussion about the article would be lovely.

i agree with thee.

so, on topic, i think the lawsuit gave many users a reason to buy an S3, for instance the S3 is an excellent feature filled mobile that does what it does really well, but many felt the iPhone 5 was good but not great despite selected media bombarding users with iphone 5 ads and claims and all that, but it didn't get the expected results.

as such the S3 sales soared and the lawsuit only increased its sales, people tend to support the other side most of the time, a lawsuit can mean 2 things....either it's a very good piece of hardware that the opposite side want to hamper its sales, or it's a piece of garbage.

under most circumstances, it's the former and lately Apple has been attacked and joked upon to death (sometimes unfairly) more than any other time, which again boasted the S3 sales.

at least that's what i think, i could be wrong, probably am.

Well this is the advert that seems to be getting the most screening over here in the UK

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rR8oj1-NVe8

So you can use your Iphone 5 with one hand, leads to some questions

1). Is the Iphone 5 so lacking in feature they couldn't come up with something better?
2). What are most Iphone 5 users doing with their other hand that being able to use it one handed is meant to be an advertising point?

I think it's a status symbol just like the iphones, so people buy expensive phones with features they do not even need.

I'll never care for the latest, best because they are ridiculously overpriced.

Kinda funny though only a year or two ago the advert would have been all about multi touch features now it's all about being able to work it with a single thumb.
