The most technologically advance smartphone ever that goes out of the Cupertino-giant’s design lab tops Time Magazine’s Gadget of the Year. Let’s take a look at why Time placed Apple’s latest smartphone on the top and what other compelling devices have made it on the top 10.

Apparently, the most powerful competition from the Android side didn’t make it to the top ten list, yes, that’s the Samsung Galaxy S3 though its larger siblings the Galaxy Note II made it to number 8.
