While
Apple has yet to officially announce tomorrow's starting time for iPhone 5
pre-orders, it is beginning to look like the launch will follow the same
pattern as last year with pre-orders starting at 12:01 AM Pacific Time / 3:01
AM Eastern Time.
iPhone 5 is 18% thinner and 20% lighter than the
previous generation and comes packed with new features and improvements such as
a taller 4-inch display, faster A6 chip, support for faster 4G LTE networks,
improved battery life, FaceTime HD camera and more.
So how does Apple's new iPhone stack up against the competition from Samsung's
Galaxy S III, Nokia's Lumia 920 and Motorola's Droid RAZR HD.
Let’s
see the comparison table that compares the tech specs of
the four smartphones:
