iPhone 5 is a solid phone, that's for sure. However, it brings to the table not much more than iPhone 4S. Even though Nexus 4 didn't come to my country officially, I looked for a Nexus 4 for weeks. (In foreign countries, black market, etc...) Still couldn't get my hands on one. Finally, in early January I gave up and bought an iPhone 5. Overall, it is a GREAT phone. But as a nerd and power user, two things bother me the most:
- Outdated OS (the same since 2007)
- Tiny tiny screen with a low resolution (the resolution is phenomenal for that screen size but still gives you little space for browsing and general workflow)
