Conclusion:

iPhone users who have never used a Sensation/SGSII prefer iPhones

iPhone users that have experience with both handsets see the merits on each side. Agree they are both good phones, and clearly outline the pros/cons of each.

SGSII users who have not used an iPhone did not attemp to comment on something they no nothing, or very little about.

Sense this thread is at an end but oh well...

Brett, have you tried using an iphone 4S? The figures you got from google are all against the old iphone.

I have an iphone 4, not 4s, it is jailbreaked, i dont pay a penny for apps, it has never broken.

I bought the iphone because i didnt like the older android phones (had the iphone 4 heading on for 2 years) I havent looked at the SGII i admit, and i wont because it is simply too big for a phone IMO.

Just a couple of comments on this thread, SD Cards, seriously? i havent required the use of one of them for maybe 5 years

I dislike apple, and if when i come to upgrade there is an android phone that is as good to use as the iphone i will happily change (save me a fortune). If the next iphone is still the best, i will get one of those.

I also think the iphone looks much better made and the extra weight in the iphone isnt an issue

To focus on this point, Brett, have you ever had an iphone?

If you require the use of one then fine, i just havent needed one since i had a Nokia N95 or something like that, so it isnt a consideration when buying a phone

I'm actually looking forward to what the SGS3 will bring, if its better than the iPhone 5 I'll be all over it.

I was all for getting a Galaxy Nexus when it was released until I saw it was the same price as a 4S and I'd have to use 2 hands to use it.

I've nothing against Google, Samsung or Android but up to now it just doesn't cut it for me over the alternative of a jailbroken iPhone.

Why is everything directed at me? Why am I the voice of Samsung? More importanly, why are comments from other people being quoted and I'm being asked about them?

I'm bored of my iPhone (I get bored of everything) I wouldn't mind moving back to android if something nice comes out.

Not sure what they can all bring out around iPhone size though, anything bigger is pushing it for me.

I was just commenting on the above point and wanted to ask you if you'd ever had an iphone so that you could compare, not google, i also mentioned that you compared the wrong phone against the Galaxy S2, which you haven't seen/have ignored.

I will admit i havent used the S2, so i cannot compare directly, just that the S2 is too big for me

I quite like the S2 TBH.

I like how it doubles up as a tray to eat my dinner off

This will never happen - because modern mobile devices are internet-connected, SD cards will be obsolete in 5 years time - people are already starting to store much of their data in the "cloud" - like your e-mails are probably all now on Gmail or Hotmail or Yahoo - whereas you used to always download them onto your computer into Outlook Express or Eudora or similar mail program.

A good proportion of your photos are probably now stored on Facebook, Photobucket or Picasa. Some advanced users probably already store stuff they might want to access from anywhere on services like Dropbox or Box (formerly known as Box.net).

Mobile broadband in 5 years time will be comparable to your current common or garden landline broadband today (not these new fangled 1000000Gb download speed fibre connections that seem to be all the rage these days, regular broadband), so you'll be able to stream films or TV (like you do with YouTube) but at HD and in longer than 10-minutes-at-a-time straight to your phone or phablet without too much buffering.

There will really be no need to store much stuff locally on your PC or phone as you'll be able to access all your stuff from any internet connected device, wherever there is a mobile signal or a wifi hotspot.

If they did introduce removable storage, though, it would be called iRAM (my corporate penis up your arse).
