Battle For CPU Supremacy: NVIDIA Calls Out Apple on Speed Claims of A5X vs. Tegra 3

One thing that will ensure apple's hardware will excel beyond Android's is the software that is created specifically for one set of hardware. Meaning they can come out with performance hardware that has software built for it and around it.

Sure, and when they are using last year's hardware, that allows them make the most out of outdated tech. Tiny screens, no 4G, no MicroSD, no expandability, HDMI, etc...

I have made the case why I don't like Apple as a company and why I hated Steve Jobs. But apart from that, while the UI is great and all that, I don't like the lack of features and stuff. The iPhone is a phone that can do fairly well at some multimedia stuff.

The high end Android devices are more like pocket sized computers that can also make phone calls. And to me that makes a world of difference.

but the thing is the specs really aren't outdated, the cpu in the 4s matches any current android phone out there, the gpu is pretty much better than the current crop of android phones, screen, although small, is still one of the better ones, you can do hdmi out through an adapter, the latest and greatest nexus requires an adapter as well, no microSD card but when you can buy an iPhone up to 64gb's it matches and surpasses all android phones. No 4g sure but with all the downtime of the LTE network I think it's safe to say Apple is waiting for network stability.

I would almost commend Apple's forethought on avoiding LTE until later this year... Maybe they just got lucky, but man, the issues LTE has had definitely do NOT match up with Apple's "just works for my grandma" philosophy.

Yeah, I never understood the boasting about 4G...it's a battery killer, it's not available everywhere and it experiences outages all the time. Sure you have 4G...but do you really have 4G?
