    Disagree! Geranted your point is valid that LTE wasn't fully developed but apple was just being cheap and knew that they didn't have to put it in the 4S to attract customers. I probably would have bought the 4S if it had LTE.

    So you don't think that massively increasing the number of potential users of a service speeds up the rollout of that service?

    Good lord the author of that article reeks of bias. How can someone try to justify being late to the party with "well it didn't seem like the right time". I assure you that there would have been a tremendous push of sales if there had been a previous 4G LTE iPhone.

    You realize that it takes time to set up these networks. It's not like they can just go up one of those cell towers and turn on a switch that says "LTE". These cell phone providers have likely been preparing to set up these LTE locations for years.

    This article treats the iPhone as a US exclusive even though LTE has been in other countries as well.
    Point being, the slow development of LTE in the US is not an excuse to exclude LTE.

    This is like saying your ISP supported IPv6 at "the right time"

    Agreed. The article is seems childish. Why didn't you just write an article about how Apple released a 4G LTE phone at just the right time? You did not need to say anything about Samsung in the article. I enjoyed the Samsung advertisement. It made a good argument and was funny.

    Stop taking things so seriously. Enough with the Apple vs Samsung bull sh*t. Try both phones and whichever one you like better get that one. Jesus Christ...some people have nothing better to do than to than praise the iphone/galaxy.

    Both phones are amazing. It is a matter of preference.

    I personally am looking forward to the Nokia Lumina 920...
