Point of correction! "Competition beats Apple"

There is no-longer much to offer from the iPhone compared to what competition offers.

Best way to sum it up: Apple Unveils Panicked Man With No Ideas http://onion.com/1fVYeFg

Interesting you realize that the competition matches up - Apple sets the trends, they are happy there

There is a point at which "value" has to be quantified. Initially it was the OS being superior than the competition, the competition matched up.
 
Next it was the app ecosystem, something Apple still has an edge when it comes to tablets. The competition matched up in the smartphone arena.
 
Remember the retina display? It was a big deal then. The iphone 5s ppi is embarrassing, compared to what 2013 is offering.
 
The build quality - here it beats most android phones, except, of course, HTC, and few others.
 
At this point, I am tempted to say it is the customers creating value for an inferior product. Period.

Apple never wants to match up - They create value for their customers, which if you understand, you wont bother comparing. I still believe those hardest hit always tempt to compare and explain features to make them stand out ;-)

Fingerprint scanner - A definite wow factor. On this one, everyone else will play catch up.
 
However, for the first time I don't think iPhone should be compared to the likes of S4 or HTC One any more. It just doesn't match up.
 
If only the fanboys (and girls) would dare check out what's out there

The NSA must be smiling about the fingerprint scanner on the new iPhone. Useful data right there.

Touch ID is a game changer & it's implementation IMHO especially when it gets it's way on the iPad will be limitless in a multiuser environment.
The 64bit part is a wow for technical enthusiasts - am sure it is now going to be a benchmark for all future phone releases.
They talked for so long about the camera & still failed to tell us the magic number, the megapixels, but still a great improvement.

Oh & the iPhone5C is not plastic, it's a polycarbonate - hehehe, new name for plastic, I guess!

& the gold 64bit 64GB iPhone5S is mine, no one should book it ;-)

As was widely predicted even after denials by Tim Cook a cheaper iPhone was churned out. Nothing to call home about though in my opinion as it has precisely the same specs as the iPhone 5, only more plastic. 

The touch id fingerprint thing is due though and in my opinion is the killer feature. If it works as advertised then it takes exclusivity to a whole new level. Owning the phone is that much more personal.
