    You need an mobile phone company with LTE first.
    And before you can even get that you need the regulator to actually license the spectrum.
    2020 maybe?

    That's what I mean, Ireland the land of the laggers...

    They are the same price as Android phones?

    The S2 is 100 cheaper than the 4S and wipes the floor with it. The S3 is better again but it's the same price.

    I think LTE is part of the new broadband scheme. Thats due 2015
    So youre probably right with 2020

    The 4s is free on meteor.
    And let's be honest here, the s2 doesn't wipe the floor with it.

    Debatable.

    They haven't had the auctions in the UK yet either.
    EE are using some existing spectrum they have at the right frequency

    And my mate just sold his S2 because it was so slow and lagged over everything. The phone app even crashed occasionally. He upgraded to the S3 instead. My iPhone 4 was faster than his S2 so I don't know where your info is coming from.

    meh im happy to stick with my Iphone 4

    the look and specs from 1st gen iphones to Iphone4 was massively different

    IMO this from Iphone4-5 is not really that much of an advancement sure its abit thinner and a bigger screen and will be alot faster

    but the screen, size and speed the iphone 4 has now is alright for me anyways so not really bothered about upgrading

    oh wait...


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 1,831 ✭✭✭dloob


    Nothing earth shattering so far.
    But I'm not sure what you could add to a phone that would be earth shattering any more.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 51,054 ✭✭✭✭Professey Chin


    Panorama is new and amazing now?

    Well I was hoping the iphone turned out to be better. It looks to be like its not going to be though. Still, something else might pop up and make it worth it.

    The jump to a 4'' screen is big. That's the perfect screen size for a phone imo and apple have nailed that now while the Android phones have gone to silly sizes.

    A phone that will beat out the S3 which it should because it's more expensive!

    How hard is that to understand?

    IMO, this is worse than the let down from the 4S announcement.
