iPhone 5 Tops TIME Magazine’s Gadget Of The Year List, Galaxy S III Doesn’t Even Make It To The List

If you pulled together all iPhone, iPad and iPod touch users running iOS 6 and polled their collective opinions on the new Maps app that replaced Google’s offering, then it is likely that the negative comments would far outweigh the positive ones.

Paul Morris·December 6, 2012

Whenever consumers are considering to purchase a new piece of kit like a smartphone or a tablet, there are always important questions to be asked about whether or not that device meets their specific requirements and whether or not it is fit for their overall intended purchase.

An independent consumer group has taken the chance to look at the main players in the tablet game and pit their batteries against one another with some rather expected results.

Ben Reid·December 5, 2012

Apple's iPhone 5 launch has to be considered a great success, despite initial launch sales figures falling somewhat short of expectation.
