All you'll get by asking that question is personal preference. For me it's the S3 and for others it will be the iPhone. The questions you should be asking yourself are what do you want to do with the phone, do you want to customise and make it personal, do you want to be tied to an OS with no flexibility, do you want to be at the mercy of iTunes, do you want to pay extortionate amounts of money for a "badge" etc.....

haha, shall I start this one off guys..............??

~~isheep~~ iphone 5 - overpriced/inflated contract tariffs/restricted/pay for every app, song, etc...../scratches easy so needs a cover/everything goes through i-tunes so Apple can control everything you do!/did I mention overpriced.....

ANY Samsung Galaxy - correctly priced/reasonable tariffs/usually free handset/Android OS so totally free & unrestricted/easily customisable/most apps are free/ you can download anything how YOU want & when YOU want/and they aren't overpriced......

anybody else.............

Having both an iphone and a S3 to me there is no comparison, S3 beats it hands down.

I only have iphone 4 so unless the 5 is an enormous step up from the 4, I stand by my opinion.

To be honest I was never an Apple fanboy and found the phone to be much overrated. Disappointment was really my overall experience.

As MI5 said, it will be down to what you want to do with the phone.

The S3 is a very nice phone and video playback is excellent. I didn't like the large screen, but they are bringing out a smaller 4" that is more to my liking.

I personally will choose the iPhone, but that is because I actually like Apple's wall garden approach. I believe there will be less rogue apps in Apple's store due to apps needing Apple's approval.

Also you are guaranteed to receive all new OS updates for at least 2 years with an iPhone, but not necessarily all new functionality (typically after 1 year).

Who let graham out?

Your best bet is to go into a store and have a play. I myself would of gone with a s3 instead of the iPhone 5 I currently have.

Just remember if you jump in and then decide you've changed your mind you have 7 days to give the phone back and swap it:)
