Yeah that would be a good theory but the reality is very very different,I came from an iphone 5/5s to a note 3 and now and s5...on the iphones I honestly barely got through a single full day without charging my phone,with the note 3 used to hit 2,5 days and with the s5 1,5-2 full days.

Your statement actually just make the iphones battery life issue seem even more pathetic when you consider they dont have screen ppi to draw power like crazy,and to think I just pulled out my 5s a few hours ago and set it up as my main phone because I want to try ios 8 when it launches later this week....eish back to charging my phone just before I leave work.:o

Obviously physical size of the phone is the main factor, but that said YMMV. This was yesterday:

It's difficult to compare hardware without benchmarks, unfortunately. Real world performance is at least correlated to benchmarks. Tech comparison spreadsheets... now those I loathe.

Benchmarks give you an idea, sure, but given how many OEMs (notably in the Android space) cheat at benchmarks, it's not really correlative with real world usage and performance.

Tech comparison spreadsheets are the worst.

Ya but really how hard can it be for the average user on the street to contact the vendors for sample hardware, set them up with equalized benchmarks, run a few regressions and come up with a representative snapshot of relative performance across a spectrum of phones?

What if you used your iPhone a lot more and productively than with the Galaxies when you were just flashing custom ROMs?

Harder than it sounds, certainly. I also doubt whether these vendors would disable their "cheat codes". This is a good article on the exposition done by a more reputable tech site on this sort of behavior.

One thing I have to admit is that the iPhone is at least more stable than my old S3. It's pretty slow though, being an iPhone 4 with iOS 7 :o I have also noticed that the apps are much larger in size, for example Facebook is about 66 megabytes, and on Android it's about half of that.

No, it's not. Facebook is 68.86MB on Android...

Yeah, confirmed a while ago. Not cool at all considering what Apple is charging and that 3GB will soon be the norm. iPhone 6 should have had 2GB RAM and 32GB entry level storage.

Forget about the price. Rest assured it's going to be a perfectly smooth and lag free experience.

Something devices with 3GB RAM and quad core CPUs still can't get.

Guess my OnePlus One didn't get the memo then.
