Okay first of all, wait for the "iPhone 6" to come out.
The positives:
Isn't made of plastic and has a cool feel to it
Fingerprint scanner (Unlinke the other's where you have to swipe it across the screen)
iOS is user-friendly and can be easily integrated with your computer
Retina display
Slow-motion camera/Panorama/dim-light photo optimization
Thin
Very light
Again, it's very easy to complete various tasks with "1" finger
4g LTE
3 mics for perfect hearing
Siri
Has silence button on it

The negatives:
Small screen
Can be a pain to hold for extensive periods of times with it's "Box" like structure
Tends to break fairly quick (Cracks, scratches, etc)
Expensive
So far doesn't have NFC (May change with iPhone 6)
Lower Mega pixels compared to the competition
Cannot survive in water AT ALL
Eye candy for thieves

[Aoihime]

There are no bad things about iPhones in my opinion except if you drop it, your screen will shatter into 1000000 pieces.

Well ive dropped mine countless times and its still in perfect shape

Ot : ive got the 5s and I just cant complain about it ...
Only thing I hate is Itune which u need for putting music on the Iphone.

Apple products are overpriced. Go with an android phone because it's not only cheaper but much better. I'd say HTC phones are amazing but if you're on a budget get a Moto G. I got mine for $80 (brand new) and it feels like I bought a phone that's worth in the $250-350 range.

Then you'll have plenty of time; around September to October. Also reread my post as I have re-written it.

To people who question iPhone 6's durability, it's screen is now made out of sapphire glass. It's one of the strongest minerals on Earth. A small test made to test it out, and it was extremely strong (the screen). Sand paper, knives, key's or bending it didn't even leave a scratch. Only when a car ran over it, it broke to pieces. iPhone 6 is for now one of the strongest if not, the strongest phone's out there.

I highly recommend iPhone 6.​

 

[Wolves]

Thanks for your opinions guys.

In my honest opinion the best android phone on the market is samsung galaxy s5 it beats the iphone5s, other top android products are the sonyz2 or htc one m8.

 

[Fuzzy Panda]

Honestly if you want the best smartphones in terms of power, features and specs you have to go to an android phone (see galaxy s5, HTC one m8, LG G3).

I think the only positives an iphone have over android is that it's easier to use for people who aren't that good with technology. It's quite simple too, so if you don't want a feature heavy phone then go for an iphone. Also, it connects to itunes easily where all my music is stored. I strongly recommend you go for android though bro.

Yet the hardware of the iPhone 6 won't be that great compared to android phones.

Try the Samsung galaxy s5 it is both water [within limits ] and dust resistant. It has a usb 3.0 speed and a fairly good battery life. It's the best smartphone out now in my opinion and is ahead of the iPhone 5s both in durability and camera wise. Unless you are content with waiting for the iphone6 to come out at which point the cost would be very high, I suggest you get the S5. I've had the phone for a few months and it's been great.

HTC One M8 is better than the S5... and cheaper as well.

Slow-motion camera/Panorama/dim-light photo optimization

Very light
Again, it's very easy to complete various tasks with "1" finger

Has silence button on it

The negatives:
Small screen
Can be a pain to hold for extensive periods of times with it's "Box" like structure
Tends to break fairly quick (Cracks, scratches, etc)
Expensive
So far doesn't have NFC (May change with iPhone 6)
Lower Mega pixels compared to the competition
Cannot survive in water AT ALL
Eye candy for thieves

Your neg points are stupid,


It has sapphire crystal display,
4.7 and 5.5 inch variants,
No human eye(naked eye) can tell the difference btwn a 5 and 8 mega pixel photo

See MKBHD's video on youtube

1. The sensor of a camera is far more important than the MP count (8MP is more than enough to produce high quality pictures for the average person) when it comes to picture picture/video quality. (This is why I hate talking about technology with plebs)

2. I dropped mine in a sink filled with water... still works perfectly.

A small screen is a con? First of all, the screen isn't small and second. it's a bloody portable phone! Should it have a huge ass screen? If you want a big screen, get a tablet or labtop. I also don't agree with it being uncomfortable to hold, but that's just a taste issue I suppose. As for the last con, LOL. Everything to a thief is eye candy.


For me, I can't speak for Android. If it's cheap and better than the iPhone, go for it. I sort of wish I would've considered it more, but I have so much tied into iTunes already, I bought an iPhone 5S and am in love with it.
