iPhone 5 - Who's in?

Not open for further replies.
If anyone is interested (probably no one!), then you should know that Koz and I have been arguing/debating for years! He is very enthusiastic about what he owns (to the point of being blinded IMO). I tend to be the devil's advocate in some cases.

Here is a case in point: http://www.toyota-4runner.org/lexus-gx470-460/67467-gx-460-compared-2010-4runner-2.html

See post #21 and on. You can see the similarities with which Koz attacks/argues. This is a repeated behavior.

If anyone took the the time to go back to this thread make sure you read this;

And if you go to the past thread in my post you will see how when Thai was the Admin he deleted the parts of my posts that contradicted his opinion. Actually both threads prove my point about Thai.

BS again. You claim that I deleted your posts yet there are plenty of your obnoxious posts around this forum. Strange, isn't it? See, Koz, you are full of it and a bad liar to boot!!

But feel free to back up what you type in this thread. You spend so much time blabbering...prove to everyone that you're not a little liar.

Thumbs up if you're still running 5.0.1 jailbroken lol...

I don't want to lose my cool features like up/down scrolling, individual password protected apps/folders, widgets, unlimited amount of apps in folders, built in camera timer, SBSettings, installous, etc etc...

Of course, I'll have to start over when I get my new iphone 5. Just waiting on the life proof case to release!

5.1.1 here but I can't thumbs up cuz I'm on tapatalk.
 
can your iphone do this. :)

There is an app for that. Having a 4runner look on the diagram is nice but not needed for off-roading.

As for me being here, long story. Read up on it. Review my first few posts on this forum. I am being like Koz...real vague with my info! :D
 
dpreview just finished a review of the iPhone 5 camera. As many camera enthusiasts know, dpreview (and cameralabs) is top-notch and very authoritative when it comes to camera reviews.

Here is the review: Quick Review: Apple iPhone 5 Camera: Digital Photography Review

Advice for the purple flare:

"All lenses are succeptable to lens flare to some degree, and as you can see from the images at the top of this page, the iPhone 4S isn't immune either (ditto the iPhone 4 and competitive smartphones from other manufacturers).

Really, our advice is not to worry. Just do what you should do anyway, and avoid putting bright lights near the edge of the frame when shooting. "
 
Here is what the (near) future of Android brings: Galaxy Note II. It has a 1.6GHz Exynos 4412 quad-core processor, 5.5-inch HD Super AMOLED display with resolution of 1280 x 720 and 267ppi, 2GB of RAM, 16/32 or 64GB of internal memory (expandable with microSD), whopping 3100mAh battery (swappable) and the latest Android operating system 4.1 Jelly Bean with Samsung’s TouchWiz UI. Like Galaxy S3, GN2 shares quad-core Mali-400 graphics processing unit.

(iPhone 5 has a custom dual core A6 chip clocked b/w 1.1 and 1.3 GHz [depending on load] with only 1GB RAM.)

Also in the near future is Qualcomm Snapdragon S4 PRO to compete with Samsung Exynos (and A6): http://www.toyota-4runner.org/1175686-post280.html

As noted by me earlier (page 29), here is the full benchmarks to backup what i wrote (and demonstrated) b/w iPhone 5 and Galaxy Note 2: Benchmarks: Samsung Galaxy Note II vs Apple iPhone 5 | Hardware.Info United Kingdom

And yeah, the iPhone 5 molests the best of Android CPU/GPU anywhere in the world...even with Jellybean (4.1).

And no, Koz, i don't need for you to get JB (whenever that is!) to know FACT. Galaxy Note 2 molests your phone AND beats international GS3. And the iPhone 5 kills GN2...despite having a more humbled processor core count and GHz (and fewer GPU cores).

Again, Koz, bring facts to the table, not stupid fanboyism. :moon:

Did you really just go there?

Do you even know who Thai is?

I dont really care who he. all i know is that he is on a 4runner forum with no 4runner and he is getting a hard on over a phone that is not even out yet. the truth is that you can never really have the "BEST" phone. there will always be a better one coming out in a few months. I dont like the the iphone cause i got my wife a 4s and it is a piece of sh';t. ya it is better than my old droid x but the the GS3 curb stomps it. everyone is intitled to there own opinion, both android and apple have there pros and cons it pretty much comes down to what OS you are more comfotable with.

Ahhh, fandroid stikes again! Dude, what planet are you living on?!! From which rock did you crawl out from??

Freaking hilarious the amount of misinformation from Android fanboys! Damn. :jaw drop:

Dude, note to you, i am holding an iPhone5 in my hands right now...actually, i have had it since 9/21/2012. :thumb3:

And now he shows it...another GS3 owner that got his panties twisted by cold hard FACTS. I am glad that you think GS3 stomps iPhone 4S...IT SHOULD. (Actually, by browser performance, 4S stomps GS3.)

Hint: see THREAD TITLE. We're talking about iPhone 5 and it has been released for a while now.

you obviously didnt even read my whole post. i was saying that everyone is intitled to there own opinion. im not saying anything about the 5 cause i havn't even seen one. what ive heard is that it should be a pretty BA phone but what ive seen with the 4s i would never get a iphone. i was just saying in the previous post that no matter if your an apple or android fan a better phone is always coming out. you have to admit that.
 
Galaxy S III has a better display than the iPhone 5

Uh-oh for iPhones!! Koz was right afterall!!

except for one tiny problem...

DisplayMate president Raymond Soneira blasted the study, arguing that the color gamut test IHS conducted was based off of an old standard that has led to incorrect conclusions.

Jakhanwah declined to comment on the new standard or Soneira's comments.

The difference in color gamut between the iPhone 5 and Galaxy S3 doesn't necessarily mean iPhone users will get a worse experience, IHS said, adding that better calibration, higher brightness, and superior power efficiency of the display may result in more accurate and realistic representation of image color and contrasts.

"Some user reviews indicate that colors presented on the Galaxy S3 actually can look oversaturated and unrealistic," Jakhanwal said. "While it may be interesting to compare the display specifications for the two phones, the actual front-of-screen viewing experience could diverge for different users."
 
DisplayMate does color gamut testing as part of their overall evaluation of a display.

Color Gamut: The Color Gamut is the range of colors that a display can produce. A widely held and exploited misconception is that the bigger the Color Gamut the better - but it isn't... If you want to see accurate colors in photos, videos, and all standard consumer content the display needs to match the Standard Color Gamut that was used to produce the content, which is called sRGB / Rec.709. A display with a larger Color Gamut cannot show colors that are not in the original content - it just exaggerates and distorts the colors. A smaller Color Gamut produces subdued colors, and too large a Color Gamut produces over saturated and even Gaudy colors. That's why a smaller Color Gamut is visually better than too large a Color Gamut. Most LCDs have a Color Gamut smaller than the Standard and most OLEDs have a Color Gamut larger than the Standard.

Link: DisplayMate iPhone 5 and Galaxy S III Color Gamuts

"The iPhone 5 and new iPad have a much larger (vs. iPhone 4) and accurate Color Gamut that is an excellent match to the sRGB / Rec.709 Standard so they will produce accurate colors as long as there is also an accurate Standard White Point and Standard Intensity Scale.

The Galaxy S III has a Color Gamut that is not only much larger than the Standard Color Gamut, which leads to distorted and exaggerated colors, but its Color Gamut is quite lopsided, with Green being a lot more saturated than Red or Blue, which adds a Green color caste to many images."
