Android is far too fragmented. You have every manufacturer with a different overlay on top of a different version of Android and by the time a new version hits you will probably be just now getting the last version that's been out for months.

:aicmon::comeon:

android have choices. Galaxy series , One series, droid line release one flag ship a year. Galaxy note is for a niche group. samsung make a lot of mid range and low range phones for budget customers. Google make money off their services on phones so they want the market saturation of android phones. 1 million activation a day :takedat:

Once i got older I stopped caring about kernel updates/changing roms to make my phone more fluid...iphone comes like that out the box. Yes im jailbroken because i like app tweaks but i also dislike carrying around 5 inch phones..shyt is beyond unnecessary . Ive always said if android can give me an elite 4-4.3 inch screen without 2nd rate stock bloatware i might go back.

Haven't messed with the S3 but Iphone fluidity is why im a fan..had android for about 2 years...left that shyt cause rooting wack "top of the line" HTC phones still had it's fukk ups. Tired of the random crashes/waiting on rom patches. Its fun if you're a kid or a student just chilling but man im never home to go on xda anymore and i need something that's consistent. Samsung phones also seem just average too.

I despise this trend of bigger wider plastic feeling phones..and Im not trying to watch netflix on my shyt b!

Guess it depends on where you're at in life :beli:

Thank you, sums up everything I hate about Android.The fukk I look like waiting on 3 different companies just to get an update. Get a fix for an app on the iPhone takes seconds because everything is streamlined. It works fine for basic smartphone features right out of the box.

and if you really wanna tweak it you can

The Rom community is very small compare to the masses

Android is matured. No reason to root and add custom rom to the nexus 7 out of the box. People root to gain more features like adding more memory to the nexus 7 small storage space :smugdraper:

cut it out i root my phone to make it how i want.

I dap you because I agree if that doesnt work for you then it aint for you. Some people like that flashing rom etc. some people dont. Each do their own thing.Android aint for everyone just like Iphones arent for everyone. I cant imagine if everyone had to use android only, it would suck and likewise for iphones. Its the beauty of being different.:ld:

Until Apple announces a memory card slot in the iPhone 7, then all the iStans will be like "Memory cards!! :ooh::stylin::bow::win:"

:stopitslime:

Today we reinventing the best smartphone again :whew:

We deeply thought about how you could buy MORE music from iTunes and MORE apps from Appstore and take MORE of these beautiful panoramic photos which we invented 2 years ago. :smugfavre:

The amazing slot for iMiniDisk (which are of course regular SD cards). Available now for JUST $50 for 16GB iMiniDisk.

apple stans - :dwillhuh: followed by :gladbron:

*clapping and roaring* while nobody listen a presenter quickly says "32GB and 64GB iMiniDisks available for $69 and $99 respectively"

On to the next...the amazing, the best, burst shot mode, revolution in photography....:deadrose:

I cannot be the only one that is having gesture issues with the iPhone 5. I type 10-15% faster on 4S and am constantly repressing buttons.

@zpower yes! Two units, exact same issue. Thought I was crazy.

Nope iMiniDisks wouldn't be regular SD cards breh,you know apple gotta change it up so they won't be able to use the SD cards they already have and force them to buy over priced cards from apple

And I'm guessing
8 gig card = $50
16 gig card = $75
32 gig card = $100
64 gig card = $150

Can't go through the dangers of switching the iMiniDisk, can't void that warranty.

I'm sorry but you iphone stans are just sheep to me. Yeah, I'm a Android user, but I've also been a Mac user since 2005. I just don't know why in the fukk do I need to wait in line every year for a phone that's going to be outdated six months later. Like you're buying a sports game :what:


Those Galaxy commercials :ahh:
