“Then we have every other media publication out there with nothing but glowing reports on the new iPhone, with every single site I’ve looked at so far having nothing but positive spin on the new handset. I’m not going to name names, because frankly, everyone is doing it. I don’t know what it is about Apple, but tech sites can’t seem to judge Apple harshly. Samsung offered more new things with the Galaxy S5 over the S4, and even then, it wasn’t a huge leap – but Samsung didn’t receive anywhere near the praise that Apple did today.

Apple announcing a new iPhone is almost like the second coming of Christ himself, no matter what he says or does, people would listen.

All in all, Apple disappointed me today, and it’s not like I didn’t expect it – but I wanted to see more.”

Don’t worry, Apple is just good on paper and tech blogs, but it as a whole it is losing market share. Just playing catch up now with Android.

No one will buy this. Low specc’d. Not even an octacore processor.

If by “no one” you mean millions, then I would have to agree with you. Apple has proven time and again that specs don’t mean shit to them. It’s all about the experience. That’s how they market their products. And I’m saying this as an Android fanboy. I know it’s not fair, but hey whatever works for them right?

What’s the difference between a dual core iphone versus an octacore Android? In iphone most of the apps runs smoothly because they are designed and developed for iphone hardware and iOS only. While apps in an quadcode/octacore Android phone, mostly likely to lag, because the developers of the android apps developed them no matter what brand/hardware with no specific hardware/OS. That’s why, even though it is a a quadcore or octacore, lag is inevitable.

@raphiduz smoothly? Cmon! Try playing a graphic intensive game on a 4s and let’s see how smooth it can be. Coc lang nga sobrang obvious ang bagal ng frame rate sa 4s ng officemate ko. It’s like playing it on a low end dual core android phone. Face it your dual core setup can only go so far just like the pathetic battery life. Wallhugger!!! Haha.

I am talking about my experience, I own an iPhone 5 and iPad Air. They are both dual core. All my purchased apps runs smoothly,never ako naglag sa high graphics games like Infinity Blade, I, II, and III, Rise of Berk, Catch the Ark, Asphalt 8, COC, Last Knight, Mr. Crab, BadLand and Ninja Slash. iPhone 4S maybe a bit slow because if you upgraded it to iOS 7, then it consumes more RAM. As far as my devices are concerned, I am satisfied with the performance. Check mo mga Android phones, more than half the RAM are eaten up by the Android legacy apps(Application na hindi mo pwedeng burahin dahil naka-imbed) unless mag-root ka. Paano na kung gagamit ka ng apps na malakas sa memory, kakapusin ka at mag lag.

At first glance, it sure looks like a phone that might have come from Cherry Mobile.
