The only two things I wanted going into this was LTE (check) and NFC (no check). Guess I'm seriously going to consider Android. I've never really paid attention to Android phones. What's the current "best" Android phone, and how close are they to releasing a new "best" Android phone?

Samsung Galaxy SIII just launched and it's pretty awesome. When exactly are yo thinking about getting a new phone?

Hit the Android OT in the community forum for this, someone will help you there. I will if noone else does. But lets not have that conversation in this thread.

 

[SuicideUZI]

I don't understand the disappointment some people seem to be having, what exactly were you expecting? the phone has been upgraded in basically every aspect, the fact that almost everything about it was leaked before hand does not make it a worse product

 

[Sky Chief]

I'm honestly not that impressed but since I have a 4 and it's At&t and since my work is paying for my upgrade, gonna be getting that Verizon 5

LTE alone is a huge upgrade

 

[LCfiner]

cute

 

[The Dutch Slayer]

THIS IS WHAT I NEEDED THANK YOU

 

[Xcellere]

THANK YOU JESUS FOR NEW ITUNES, FINALLY!!!!

Every year in every iPhone thread a bunch of people chime in and say "That's it?" or "Small/insignificant update!" There hasn't been an iPhone unveil that truly wowed bloggers and forum goers. Even the original iPhone!

The original iPhone was kind of a big deal. iPhone 4 wasn't bad either. But now it's just minor upgrades. Why people don't recognize it, I don't know. My facebook feed is already full of mindless people screaming: "IPHONE 5 I WANT YOU" and "IPHONE 5, FUCK YEAH", while they don't even know what's changed.

Sad world we live in.

 

[royalan]

new desktop iTunes looks sexy...

 

[freenudemacusers]

The majority of people who want a smartphone buy it for facebook.

ok? doesn't mean i need to LIKE stuff from the store.

Galaxy S3, HTC OneX and Galaxy Nexus (but this one is kinda dated) are the top now (in my opinion).

New Nexus phone(s) should be announced soon.

 

[AkuMifune]

Hey, it's Adele. Go figure.

Even Engadget is getting annoyed.

 

[Replicant]

iPhone 4 being free on contract is the thing most people I know will be tremendously excited about today. I'm not kidding.

The 4 really was the biggest leap of them all. Still love this beautiful, beautiful phone.

I agree. 4 was the best phone apple produced design-wise. I had no desire moving to 4s and I am not that hot on iPhone 5 either.

No iPad announcement either? Ugh, why am I even staying up?

 

[PG2G]

Is there any chance that Samsung will show the Galaxy S4 in the next 6 months? Just wondering.

The S3 was announced in May, so it would be safe to assume the S4 will around the same time

 

[Horse Detective]

LMAO!

I mean jesus fucking christ.

 

[siddhu33]

There, new version of iTunes. now stop complaining.

As long as it doesn't run like shit on windows.

 

[Nero3000]

There, new version of iTunes. now stop complaining.

Does it fix the part where it runs like shit?

 

[Mr Swine]

So where is the new iPod touch?

 

[Mr. F]

Does anyone actually use the Album view? Always found it pointless. Also RIP coverflow I guess.

 

[giga]

cute

Praise da lawd.

 

[Treefingers]

wow this looks awesome as fuck.

 

[noah111]

Well, I'm gutted.

I was wrong! They were teasing! YESSSS

 

[Tunesmith]

iOS on the 19th, hopefully Google gets the iPad YouTube app out by then.

new iTunes!

The Youtube app is already out, was released yesterday.

 

[Zeth]

New on-device stores look sooo good.

 

[CarbonatedFalcon]

Okay, new iTunes looks pretty good.

 

[Stat Flow]

Was there anything about the unlocked price of the iPhone 5?

 

[2Crisis]

As long as it doesn't run like shit on windows.

haha, you and I both know it will

 

[rozay]

Please tell me it's leaner.

 

[Slurpy2k20]

Holy shit- iTunes redesign. This is huge. Biggest visual/functional change since it first launched. Looks gorgeous.

S3 and One X (though I hate Sense) are the current best.

New Nexus, rumored to be released around october, same as their previous, should be the next best 'pure' Android.

 

[Deleted member 22576]

It had better run on snow leopard.

 

[The Elite]

How well will it run though. iTunes still runs like ass for me.

 

[KingKong]

ok that looks nice

 

[cjkeats]

Does anyone actually use the Album view? Always found it pointless. Also RIP coverflow I guess.

I do, exclusively.

 

[djplaeskool]

Meh. Don't even use iTunes.
Too late to hope for iPad Mini announcement?

 

[CorrisD]

God damn iTunes, you looking nice.

 

[giga]

HOLD THE FUCK UP

Where the fuck is ping?

 

[mf.luder]

It needs to run good. This animation thing has me bothered though with a library of 25,000 songs. Not that mine is that big but I'm sure some of you.

 

[Tiktaalik]

"We've given the artist the ability to share photos with you in your library. Here's some photos Coldplay is sharing."

so iTunes is getting even more bloated. GREAT

 

[victreeb3l]

i never thought id be this excited for fucking itunes lol

 

[SlowRevolution]

The Youtube app is already out, was released yesterday.

That was the iPhone one, they said they've got plans to release the iPad app soon.

 

[Raine]

Oh nice, new iTunes

 

[richiek]

iTunes will still run like shit on Windows.

 

[PaleFolklore]

I really wish they would push the Movie section of iTunes more. I want a dedicated Film DD that isn't playing second fiddle to another form of entertainment.

 

[Koodo]

ADELE keeps getting that promo.

 

[lunarworks]

New iTunes is like... meh.

I hope I can manage my library in the classic way. I like my lists.

 

[dark_chris]

"But we're not standing still. Today we're introducing a new version of iTunes."

I can't stop laughing to this post. holy shit

What? iPhone 2G, 3G, and 4 presentations literally made me insta-buy the phones.

 

[Judderman]

HOLD THE FUCK UP

Where the fuck is ping?

shhhhhh

 

[DrFurbs]

Im confused. So you pay for instance $199 (16gig version) and a two year contract..is that is or is there a monthly sub too? or is it just $199 and thats it?
