Apple's newest iPhone brings a few much needed improvements to the smartphone table, as it looks to take on rivals including the Samsung S3.
PROS
Eye-catching design; purchase music tracks and buy or rent movies on iTunes with SA account; brilliant display; thin and light; easy to use one-handed; and new Earpod earphones fit comfortably in your ears.
CONS
Premium pricetag; iOS appears long in the tooth in terms of its design; LTE supported by the device, but not yet by local networks; and can't expand upon internal storage.
VERDICT
The best incarnation of the iPhone yet, but the Galaxy S3 provides users with more spec bang for less bucks.
