Yep we're looking at the same article up ^ way, but you commented on the ad. I was considering that it was one benchmark result and unconfirmed if it was even legitimate in my response as stated in the article.
"Poole acknowledges that any pre-release results on Geekbench have a chance of being faked, but he seems to believe that these results are legitimate."
and "This one score also places the iPhone 5 ahead of the average scores of all Android phones on Geekbench."
I am waiting for more information before saying one phone's performance is better than another as well as some real world tests.
I do agree with you about the advertising gimics and that if it is a better product people will buy it without slamming the other company.
I think people throw themselves at Apple's feet with it's "Closed" Nature and the premiums charged for their products. It's great for the company and I think they've done a great job with it; that's what a company should do for it's shareholders after all.
That post makes me giggle. Apple fans are so deathly afraid of Samsung that they are flaunting all of their silly useless (to me...I guess....maybe someone can use them) opinions in hopes that people will think the S3 is inferior.
Seriously though, at least try the phone out before declaring it is superior to the S3. On the surface the specs indicate less memory and a slower cpu clock speed. Ultimately the performance may be close, but the numbers will speak for themselves.
I personally was expecting something innovative and didn't see it, so I'm not sure how the Iphone 5 is an awesome product in itself. Yes, it does complement the Apple universe, but we all don't have to throw ourselves at Apple's feet.
