lol I didn't say u didn't own the phones, I am talking about the review you made... lol

The only reason i prefer the iPhone is speed !
Also d fact tht its virus free, only reason i got d Samsung is to watch football on SkyGo. Sky stopped all jailbroken phones from accessing thr services and Xcon on jailbreak isnt workin yet. Well i guess its all a thing of preference . .

You failed to mention one of the major flaws ( and there are many flaws trust me) is the battery issue. The battery life is SH-T! Trust me I have one and I know!

ZLUK: Ways Iphone 5S is better than Galaxy S4

1. It can be compared to Samsung Galaxy S4 ***diss to tecno users***

2. It is the fastest phone ever tested

3. S4 is too large for some of us

4. With the aluminium build of 5S, I don't have to worry about the cheapness I may feel carrying a plastic like S4

5. Don't even let me get started on TOUCH ID .... That is a killer

6. Despite the more capcity indicated on the S4, iphone 5S still lasts longer

7. Should I even mention the prone-ness of Android OS to attacks?

8. The AMOLED is sharper than the iPhone LCD on resolution specs, but not in reality

You don finish?!!!
Mtchewwwww!!!

Let me start by saying I've been active in the IT world for quite some time(14 years to be precise). And being the geek I am, I have amusingly and closely watched most of the transformations take place both at the hardware and software level of different devices. Coming across many end users, I realize people are swayed not always by the big and important but rather, the little things that make a device perfect in their hearts.
I won't lie(like many on this forum enjoy doing) and say I own something I don't, but among my friends, are owners of S2s, S3s, S4s, Note2s, Note3s, LGs, HTC Ones etc. Sincerely, I see great machines, but the problem lies in the OS. As I said earlier on, I am fascinated not only by hardware but also and most importantly, by software.
Maybe I'm anti-Android(not anti-Samsung or anti-HTC mind you) and hope android users will forgive me. But I'd rather an iOS any day, hell, I'd rather a Windows based Nokia to any Android phone in the market. Whether HTC, Samsung, Tecno, LG, Gionee.......(Different plates, but same meal on them makes them less appealing).
Unique is the keyword and that my friends, is the reason I love my iPhone 5s with iOS 7.0.4 dearly.
I wish Oga Seun will get his people to activate device detection(haba! dis tin easy, simple JavaScript or jquery can solve this problem) on every post and/or reply and let us know which device a post is sent from. Then, we'll see the types of phones being used cos as of now, almost everyone is claiming to be using an S4 or iPhone5s, SMH.
On a final note, the entire tech world does not trust Samsung's benchmark results; they are always altered.....always.

Brightness settings is obviously different in these two photos. So it's difficult to conclude.

Don't be naive, no OS is virus free. There are Android phones out there that are as fast or faster than the iPhone (touchwiz is a failed UI implementation that is why the Note 3 is slow).

I totally agree with you, but for me the iPhone suits my need and I do prefer it to the samsung note3 anytime anyday. But tht’s just my preference n opinion anyway.

Note 3 does have its flaws. If you really wanted an Android device, go for either the Nexus 5 or Sony Xperia Z1.

Just the fluidity that i get on Apple trumps all those Samsung features put together. Moreso, i just can't risk my privacy on Google Play which is notorious for leaking security details to app developers. Apple devices are top notch.

You do realise that Apples app store leaks all your private information to developers as well.... Let's not be naive man. With the advent of smart phones, no one has privacy anymore. That is one of the various trade-offs to enjoy such rich and nice technology.
