There is no denying that the 5s is really fast. However, in everyday use, does it need to be?
I just got a Galaxy S4 ($50 on Amazon) and I have had zero lag in anything I have tried. Is the 5s faster, yes, is it noticeable in everyday use, not really. Just like with everyday use of desktops, the AMD A10 series is plenty fast for general desktop use, even though in benchmarks a Core i5 smokes it. However, unless you are running something very demanding, which most people don't, they won't see a difference.
Also, I like being able to have a spare battery and put in an SD card to add memory without Apple charging insane upgrade prices.
