Apple is Playing Catch up With Android


This is a list of features Apple fans are bragging about in the iPhone5 that Android already has:



" iCloud Tabs - share tabs from your desktop to iPhone"
You can sync tabs between your PC, Android Phone, Macs and iPhones through Google Chrome since February 2012.


"Mail - marking people as VIP.. emails received from them will go to a separate inbox"
Ever since Gmail, Hotmail and Yahoo Mail were released for Android you can set up specific foders for individuals or a group of people.


"Photo Stream - few taps, and share with pals"
This feature has been in every Android phone since Android 1.6 back in 2008!


"A more intelligent Siri"
If you havent noticed they have copied the same EXACT feature from Google now (Im talking about Smart Cards) 


"Siri can book restaurant reservations, post to Facebook, etc for you"
So does Google Now since last May!



"40% faster image capture"
Samsung Galaxy S3 was the first phone in the entire world to have a ZERO shutter lag which makes the camera able to take up to 9 images per second !



"Panorama - for widescreen pictures"
In every Android phone since 2009




" Front-face camera: now 720p (like on a Mac)"
My Galaxy S2 (2010) has that feature.



"Noise Cancelling Earpiece" 
Ever since I started using Sony Ericsson phones in 2004 (Walkman series) I had Noise cancelling headset, and I also got it with my Samsung Galaxy S2 two years ago.



"Three microphones - front, bottom, back"
My S2 has one on the bottom to make calls and one on top to reduce noise when talking or recording a Video... whats the third for ? Apple says its also for noise cancellation, but I personally believe its just for show ! ( Bragging )
