    And yes, actually. The new A6 processor is not a piggy back of the A15 or ARM chips. Meaning
    1. Possibly the best processor in a phone to date. 2. Apple may ditch Intel based systems all together.

    Basically because they made the chip themselves meant for the phone instead of borrowing a technology made for servers the phone should theoretically be much more efficient with it's processing! That's the best lamens terms I could do

    ok you want me to get all techy? bout most of the ppl here would not know what im talking about, ppl get confused once i bring up the word Processor.....

    I should have been more specific on what i was trying to say....ok yea its better on the inside but on the outside it still looks the same....Its like me keeping the same white old computer case ive had for 3 years now, i like to change every year or so my computer cases

    you guys might disagree with me but keeping the same looks is getting boring TO ME...

    I have an older blackberry from metro as i dont need a smartphone..I was paying too much for a smartphone when really all i did was txt and take pictures with the 8mp camera for the thread of fail. The only reason why i got a metro was because my old phone cracked when i was in LA for the black S interior. 80 with like 10gb data or something like that with unlimited eveything. Now i just pay $30 with metro for unlimited slow internet, txt, call and im fine with it. I rather spend my money on the newest cpu/graphics card every year OR pay my other bills. :confused:

    ^ I get you. all i use my phone for is texting and pics as well. My bill is high enough as is but it will go up 20-30 more a month just to have a phone where I'm gonna end up doing the same stuff anyway. I have a Ipod Touch for games to play on the train anyway.

    Sorry, the Iphone 5 is not revolutionary. Iphone 3GS to the Iphone 4. Now that was amazing.

    I agree that the faster processor is great, but when its the same old stuff, recycled, what do you need a faster processor for?

    I also wish the screen was bigger, which is why I went to the S3. If apple can come out with a bigger sized iPhone, I would gladly switch back

    What do I need a fastest processor for?
    Said by the guy with a 2011 i7 3930k? lol

    All phones are the same nowadays, revolutionary? Nah I need my phone to check email efficiently, keep up with social media, occasionally maps, and look stuff up in a pinch.
    What revolutionary thing are they gonna do?

    Apple isn't going to be "revolutionary" for a while, believe me.
    They actually do what the people want and ask for;
    oh bigger screen? here 4" screen
    Faster: here you go A6
    Longer battery life: More cells in the battery
    Better screen: hows 326 pixels per inch sound.

    If I were to compare the S3 and iPhone 5 I say it's dead even between them.
    Why I get an iPhone? Most people do and I have a better user experience when friends have the same phone and we can all share pictures and apps etc.

    That's what I was feeling on the whole thing... what is left these days to be discovered or created that will be classified as revolutionary? I don't think there could be much left.

    While I still like the iPhone software, and love all its features, Android had the DND message thing before Iphone. And I always found it funny that Apple got most of there ideas from Jail broken apps.

    But either way, one person will always be ahead of the other. I do hope that apple comes out with a new "revolutionary" phone again. I was hoping they were going to do the edge to edge screen with the tear drop shape.
