Iphone users, what are you expecting from the Iphone 5?

[Michael_Malice]

The next generation iPhone 5, which Apple Inc. plans to release this week, could not only boost the tech giant’s bottom line — but could give a significant boost to the overall U.S. economy.

Sales of the new iPhone could add between a quarter and a half percentage point to fourth quarter annualized growth in the U.S., according to J.P. Morgan’s chief economist, Michael Feroli in a note to clients on Monday.

Such an impact would be significant.

“Calculated using the so-called retail control method, sales of iPhone 5 could boost annualized GDP growth by $3.2 billion, or $12.8 billion at an annual rate,” Feroli wrote. That 0.33 percentage-point boost, he added, “would limit the downside risk to our Q4 GDP growth protection, which remains 2.0 percent.”

Apple and the iPhone saving the US Economy. iPhones stay winning.

Apple should have pull a power move and loan the government some money and be the new JP Morgan

Apple could become the new government if it wanted. Buy an iPhone and save the United States.

Sgs 3 shits on anything Iphone will come out with.

Finger print to lock......wack

Just now getting LTE......lame

Just now getting bigger screen......lame

Fingerprint to unlock.......gimmick

Unremovable battery......lame

The iPhone will never have something so idiotic as this...slap yourself. LMFAO @ removable battery...dudes running around like "REMOVABLE BATTERY FTMFW!! OMG!! HAX0RS RULZ! LULZ AT THE IPHONE FOR NOT HAZING that!!"

Tho I like the idea of the no removable battery what happens when your phone stop keeping charge???

Phone stops keeping a charge?? I have the ORIGINAL iPhone the 2007 model kicking around somewhere that still holds a charge. Removable battery? The reality is the SG3 has a 2100mAh battery...95% of its users will never need a "replacement battery". These things hold 20+ hours of stand by time, we have chargers EVERYWHERE, cars, computers, etc. A replacement battery is outdated and shows a regression. Samsung should have just gone the route of HTC, Motorola, Nokia is going and ditching these ridiculous redundant features just so they can win some spec sheet fight with Apple.

Microsoft and Nokia really have done a great job with truly being innovative when it comes to a touchscreen OS. Their Windows Phone8 is a fantastic OS (though they did have to licence patents from Apple) that LOOKS nothing like iOS and takes a very different approach. The Lumina 920 is a BEAST as well. Very good looking phone.

Nigga I had to replace my first iPhone because the battery stop keeping charge. I understand you like apple but JAH!!

So fucking what?? Stop acting like your personal anecdotal evidence means a got damn thing. Just because some shit happened to YOU doesnt mean its systematic for everybody with an iPhone.

First the iPhone battery don't loose charge, when i said it happened to me then it's so what.....You sounding like a real lame right now....

Oh so because you "SAID" it loses a charge that automatically means ALL iPhones lose charges? GTFOH you lying ass nigga. Any nigga can come on here and claim all kinds of bullshit...doesnt make it true.

 

[rage]

LMAO @ you niggas being the ones calling geek squad for simple PC know how getting raped for 2 yards of your money when you can simply get the know how and do it yourself

You laughing at the geek squad niggaz but they laughing at your dumb ass b.

You're essentially ethering yourself and have agreed to my posts earlier in this thread

iphone users don't know shit, hence their continuous uneducated loyalty to a smartphone thats really a dummyphone, constricting and limiting their users for the sake of a stat quo



I mean, yall paying 3 plus for a smartphone you can't even customize and tweak to your own preferences out of the box...

out of the box my dude...you gotta root to get yall benefits to even compete with today standards. SG3 is doing that out of the box b...

yall paying 3 plus for a smartphone that is just getting a two years ago upgrade (bigger screen real estate, somewhat faster connection and larger phone)

try again @rage...

BWAHAHAHHAH @ customizing and tweaking your phone preferences. You right nigga iPhone users dont have time to swap in the latest Yu-gi-hoe theme on their phones.

SMH I've heard everything now..."customize and tweaks". You nerds will never get it.

 

[rage]

one thing i've noticed about people who like iphones...it was their first real "smartphone"...they came straight from flip phones to iphones...so they like the relative ease of operating it...

Wrong again, I've had numerous BBs, had Palm Treo and a Sony P900i before the iPhone. Those phones were jokes in comparison to the iPhone.

but its funny that every court outside the US basically told apple fuck you and your patents but the court in california said that apple should be compensated...home field advantage?

Yeah this isnt true at all....

So are we gonna complain about the Ipod not having a removable battery as well?

The older ipods battery was easy to change.

Didn't know that...

 

[MrSoutCity]

I still got my first ipod from 2005. It has sentimental value not to mention all my music. I had to change the screen, batterys, shit I have to change damn near all the internal components.

 

[rage]

@ rage...where else other than the US has apple won the case?

in Germany.

in South Korea

BWAHAHAHAHAH!!! EASY to charge!! ....so the iPhone with the EXACT same connector and cable is now "difficult" to charge?? I'm done you niggas have really started to

Apple has no other way to beat Samsung so they have to use the law to wear them down. While i personally think it's some snake shit to do from the alleged 'most successful company in the world' especially considering they would have gone belly up had Bill Gates not saved the company, they seem to be doing a good job

Has no way to beat Samsung? All Apple does is beat Samsung....in every single way. iPhone's sales will crush whatever Galaxy S14 or whatever is out. iPad dominates the tablet market, iPod owns the MP3 market, the Mac line outsells whatever Samsung computers are out...so again in what way does Samsung beat Apple??

Fuck outta here...
http://allthingsd.com/20120806/iphone-caused-crisis-of-design-at-samsung-memo/

At the end of Monday in week two of the Apple versus Samsung case, a damning internal Samsung email was admitted into evidence — an email containing charged language from JK Shin, Samsung’s head of mobile communications. In the email, Shin described the difference in user experience between Samsung and Apple smartphones as “a difference between Heaven and Earth.”

Here’s Shin again, on what Samsung could do to catch up from behind:

“I hear things like this: Let’s make something like the iPhone.”

And again:

“When everybody (both consumers and the industry) talk about UX, they weigh it against the iPhone. The iPhone has become the standard. That’s how things are already.”

And yet again:

“Do you know how difficult the Omnia is to use? When you compare the 2007 version of the iPhone with our current Omnia, can you honestly say the Omnia is better? If you compare the UX with the iPhone, it’s a difference between Heaven and Earth.”

It’s not pretty. Samsung declined my request for comment.

Samsung's are nothing but bootleg iPhones...you have no fucking clue what "snake shit" is.

Samsung been providing apple with all their hardware for years dunny. Samsung just needs better software teams to edge out Apple and then they will fall behind. That's why they got hit with that lame copyright fee, their OS is lacking. As far as hardware though Samsung is on the come up near the top and if Apple does not succeed in trying to squash them, which as we can see now they are desperate as fuck to do it because they keep trying to do it, then Apple will be playing catch up to Samsung.

I hope it happens cause Korea deserves this. They've made some crazy progress and it has been paying off. Word to coming up from nothing and not relying on a Bill Gates hand out to stay afloat.

Yeah and? Samsung used to make more manufacturing Apple parts than they were with their own damn phones. Samsung was just the manufacturer they didnt design shit. Thats why they had to get cross patents and licenses from Apple for their hardware as well. As far as hardware...the Retina Display is JUST NOW being beaten in ppi, the A4 and A5s were boding all the dual core intel chips when the iPhone4 came out. All everybody every heard was "Oh yeah just wait till the Tegra3s come out"....whose playing catch up then??

Its says a lot about you fandroids if your whole fucking argument is

1) Our brand new phone is better than the one you released a year ago

2) Our phone is better because its bigger and faster....no shit its a year later...it better be.

1. Take Apple's dick out of your mouth - i have an iphone and never owned an android.

2. Spec wise Samsung is more capable as far as hardware goes.

3. If Samsung isn't such a threat why are they fighting so valiantly to get rid of them?

Samsung is gunning for top spot
