    Default iPhone 5s, yay or nay?

    Sup!
    Just wondering, any of you thinking of buying the new model?
    My 4 is getting VERY sluggish, and i oh-so-want that keylock on djay

    I'll probably take advantage of the euro/dollar conversion, the 64gb in europe costs 900€, while in the US it goes for 849$, which is about 640€, a huge deal of money.

    Any thoughts?

    Coming from the 4, you will crap your pants at the speed of the 5S. I upgraded from a regular 4 to a 5 last year. I can't even stand using my girl's 4 for anything. Treat yourself. You're worth it.

    LOL... its funny cause its true.

    The apps are 5x better on iOS, but that doesn't incite much for new users, people jumping ship. They need to update the platform before they lose the app developers too.

    I already have the 5, and don't really need the 5s, but I'm pretty sure after I see the phone RGAS will kick in and I'll land up buying it anyway..

    It's sold out every store that sells Apple locally here.. The phone is a huge step up to the 4, i loved going from my 4 to 5, the iPhone 4 is just like a slab now compared to the 5 and 5S. So go for it! If you're making a saving that's an extra bonus!

    I'm gonna wait for the 6 though.

    Erm..nope.
    Samsung's the foundry of the chip, not the designer. Apple could've outsourced the production to TSMC or GlobalFoundries, but they sticked to samsung since they provide their memory modules at a lower price than competitors.

    So while sammy manufactured the chip, it's designed in-house by apple. The exynos on the other hand is completely samsung made.

    The fact still stands, thing beats the crap out of exynos' and latest-gen snapdragons.
