In case you don't really need a new (smart)phone, don't buy anything! \nAt least until iPhone 5 is out. Even then I wouldn't be in a hurry, because the demand for the new iPhone will be insane, again, for the first few months. Let the earliest adopters trample on and flag the possible mines first.\n\nAs for the Samsung vs iPhone, I think it's purely a matter of taste and personal preferences. I don't think it's such a meaningful comparison to begin with, it's like comparing apples to oranges. Or choosing between a Windows computer or a Mac. A Windows machine is no substitute for a Mac for many, but many other people find them just fine. So choose whichever platform you fancy more. Or a n HP Pre 3, or a Blackberry.\n\nI for one will probably be using my iPhone 3GS even for yet another year or so, because it works just fine, still looks like new, and will run iOS 5, so I don't necessarily need a new phone. I for one will wait for iPhone 5 with no hurry whatsoever, or perhaps even HP Pre 3, if I feel like changing the brand and OS. Although I already have a number of iOS apps, so iPhone is likely to be the first choice. Android phones aren't really my cup of tea, nor are the few WP7 phones I've seen.  \nBut whatever floats your boat, and not anyone else's.", "group_id": 97, "id": 1558757}, {"user_id": 13501, "stars": [], "topic_id": 37444, "date_created": 1309946610.5407469, "message": "I am gonna getting SII tomorrow... don't get iPhone 4, wait for the whoppy choppy iPhone5 instead [edit] I am using 3GS now... so I have plenty of reasons for this (and my contract just expired)", "group_id": 97, "id": 1574266}]
