Apple iPhone 5 will put Samsung Galaxy S III to Shame: Foxconn CEO

Recommended Posts

Times of India

The smartphone war between Apple's iPhone and Samsung's Galaxy series is set to heat up further with a top official associated with the company that assembles the iPhone saying that Apple's next offering, iPhone 5, will put Samsung GalaxyS III to shame.

"Consumers should wait for the iPhone 5 because it will put the Samsung Galaxy S III to shame," a report published in Focus Taiwan quoted Foxconn CEO Terry Gou as saying in China Times.

Foxconn assembles iPhone and other Apple products.

According to the report, Gou did not divulge details of the iPhone5 but talked about the new partnership with display manufacturer Sharp during Foxconn's annual shareholder's meeting.

Gou also claimed that Sharp's cutting-edge display manufacturing facilities in Sakai City, Osaka, Japan will give Foxconn a three-year lead on Samsung.

"With (Foxconn's) marketing and manufacturing strengths and Sharp's key technologies, the two will be able to defeat their arch-rival Samsung," the report in Focus Taiwan added.

Well well many will disagree but for that matter 4S is already doing the job, black market rate was 54k soon it's going for 36.5k where as iPhone rate have increased.

What else android - with India's heat ice cream has already melted. Where are your promised devices, as soon as its there in 10% of device you will have your new "Jamun" ready

iOS from 4x to 5.11 runs smooth on 3G still and is universally done on all device

iOS serves 4-5 devices while Android supports around 200 devices.

There is lot of difference in how updates are handled by both OS.

Why we have a separate thread for just rumours? Should be part of News Snippets.

Wait for clarification from Foxconn CEO, it is actually a slip of tongue, he meant iPhone 5 will put Galaxy S2 to shame.

IOS is the worst phone OS having no features. does not have Smart Search dialler, No mail attachment feature etc.

I could not find any noticeable difference between IOS 4 & 5. Than why the hype ?

i think the foxconn ceo was talking about the price. iphone 5 will be priced so ludicrously high that buying a GSIII will look like a bargain

Yes.still not possible while replying. It's expected that in ios6 it would be solved. Let's hope so.

and its so boring to use ios. you are perpetually in your menu all the time. cant even quickly see or know whats going on where

unless u go to an app exclusively.

notifications are lagging way behind. miss live wallpaper. why jailbreak for such a simple thing. any smartphone os without widget

support is so primitive. no wonder microsoft is working to enable tiles in windows 8.

i have recently been using ipad & asus transformer. and honestly ics feels way ahead of ios.

imagine having to go to four steps at least just for enabling wifi in ios. gosh why cant they allow you to simply put a wifi toggle on homescreen like android.

Features like Email Attachments, Smart search, Reject call by sms were available in Windows Mobile 6 which was launched 3 year back & comes with today's <5k phone, While IOS 5 released few month back & iPhone priced at >25k+ does not have such features.

And still people like iPhone, I do not understand why.

^ What could it be? Showoff of course. People carrying iPhone feel that they are above others.

My wife & Brother both are using Incredible 2 and I have offered the iPhone 4, which they are NOT ready to accept by any means.

And what's the use of a phone when you have to do "kida" to get such basic features working.

I was reading y'day found this - this shows how Determined (frustrated) is samsung to push S3 which will soon be replaced by S4 or what ever, 1 iPhone lasts one year mean time 20 android with all its gimmicks go by.

Easy Phone Sync is an easy way to transfer the following to your Samsung Galaxy mobile device:

- contacts, messages, photos and videos* from an iPhone or iPad using the iTunes backup on your computer, and

- music*, podcasts and playlists from iTunes
