I have always known that the S3 would break the iPhone. That's due to the fact that apple makes smart moves and holds the interface dummy friendly and simple, just as the majority of the customers want it to be. I however have never had anything apple related. However, I have the knowledge and interest to learn why apple is good or bad and why people buy iPhone's instead of androids or the windows phone versions.
The answer was simple: Apple made it easy, early and made a good UI and design. But nothing of this had with quality to do with so I started comparing the insides of the phones by making researchs on the phone specifications.
Apple has very modern specs with the maximum of hardware. That means that any other devices even had a hard time competing with hardware. However, Google android announced some incredible phones that could match the iPhone's and even defeat them in hardware. My now gone HTC Desire was such a phone, HTC's flagship. It was released a half year after the iPhone 3GS but even then it was more than twice as strong with its futuristic and superior Snapzdragon single core. Even if just that phone got lots of attention it wasn't sold in comparable amounts to the 3GS.
The most annoying part is that iPhone released the iPhone 4 half a year after the HTC Desire. It had about the same specs and was both better and worse than the desire in many aspects. But people just wanted the design so they bought an outdated phone :(
Now, the Galaxy S3 has greatly beaten the 4S with about 6x times the processing power and with its HD 720p display and tons of features that even the IPhone 5 can't match. The S3 was released half a year from the IPhone 4S and just like the cycle of iPhone, iPhone 5 came a half year after Galaxy S3.
iPhone 5 still has no chance to compete the specs with the S3 since it's greatly outmatched by the Galaxy device. A slower dual-core vs a stronger Quadra core.

I don't know if you had a clue but I'm an ancient, skilled drawer and i sometimes make paintings with my phone. Many of those paintings are usually uploaded to Deviantart so that people and friends are able to see what I've done. I also make a lot of sketching and so i have the experience to draw some semi-professional paintings.
Lately I've been modeling in the 3D environment called Blender, which is a CAD software with physic engine , algorithm calculator, Python programming language etc. I've used those experiences to make DOTA2 mods for the Workshop. And there are really many reasons to be learning CAD or Blender. Since the dawn of the 3D printer era is on its way, it's best to be prepared.
