It terms of build quality and feel an iPhone wins all day long. My Nexus feels like it's made from cheese. S3 wasn't much different when I picked one up.

iPhone is definitely built much better.
The S3 isn't built badly, just nowhere near apple quality.

4S screen looks like a joke after being used to an S3, I had to do something on one again yesterday.
I didn't think that before using the S3.

Tell me about it, I use my old 3GS and speaker dock as an alarm clock and everytime I set the alarm the screen is just so bad. I remember when I first got it and it seemed decent! Bit like when you play old PS games. When GT came out it was mind blowing, now it's just shocking

Nobody does. Steve is clutching at straws.

nor have i because no phone iv ever owned has really had a screen size or res that would make a film enjoyable, but films are perfectly watchable on the s3. Infact the quality is brilliant tbh
plenty of situations that would be useful to watch films on a phone too

had a play with one today, pretty fast and feels nice and thin but if you press home button then go for an app on the top row and its a reach. as i thought its too long. nice and thin though
is it any longer than an S3? (genuine question, havent compared sizes)
No its shorter and narrower than an S3 - If you can't reach the top row with your thumb you need to be looking at the likes of the iphone 4 and smaller android phones (S2 & S3 will be too big)
im sure eventually ill have no choice but to adapt to the big screen if i want the best tech. i dont watch movies on my phone, my ipad is used for media so the iphone 4 is perfect for me.
wish i had bigger thumbs

yes, because you have an iphone and have to carry extra suitable devices to watch films

You don't have to, but in the same way you say the s3 is better than the iPhone, the iPad is better than both
