I love my iPhone 5s because it's the phone I have - and I don't
  do the apple vs android war 'cause I know I'd be equally happy
  with an Android unit.

  But I'll definitely give Samsung its due: I've been a fan of
  their products for a VERY long time, even before smartphones
  existed and it was LCD monitors or other products. They seem to
  step on a limb with new technologies and have had fantastic
  failures as well as amazing successes in the process.
