Android phones, apps and tablets

Look forward to hearing what's wrong with it.

If my Note is anything to go by it'll be glacial application performance ad a shit keyboard, but this is a second phone so I can live with that.

The Android Kindle app, for example, drives me nuts by hanging on startup whilst it looks for a network.

install swiftkey as default keyboard.

No idea why kindle app hangs, doesn't do it on my N7

It doesn't really matter- Android is for people who don't want to pay for an iPhone, and in this case as a second phone I don't want to pay what Apple wants for their latest shiny toy.

hmm I'd argue totally not.

I got forced to have an iphone by work and I fucking hate it. it's so limited, the keyboard is fucking terrible (and you cannot replace it).

Peurile and ignorant. Oh well.

Quelle surprise...

Volvos are for people who don't wan't to pay for Audis....

Chinese crabon is for people who...

iphones are made for people who can't afford to pay for someone else to deal with all the shit

^ *can

?

iPhones are for sheep...

Kirth aside, how many of you Android fanboys have actually used both an Android handset and an iPhone side by side out of interest?

Two phones? Who does that?

Oh...

Heh- exactly, your opinion isn't worth shit.

You're clearly very happy with Apple, Neil... Please leave us opinion-isn't-worth-shit types in peace... kthxbai...

iOS thread >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

You can't complain when you're called on pulling a Scoble and talking from a position of authority you simply don't have Joe.

Why would I want to pay more for something that offers me less functionality?

I can see the appeal for my non-tech-savy dad, but thats about it ...

and limits you so badly.

I still fucking hate that I cannot drag and drop stuff but am forced to install iTunes for what is very simple functionality (that Apple have deliberately crippled).

Oh and non-standard connectors.... fuck you apple. House full of micro-usb charges, oh wait, forgot my t-bolt connector, oh well I'll swap the battery... oh wait.

and a number of people have Android phones that are more expensive than iphones.

at this day and age, I'd say yes the iphone is great if you want a simple phone and are techologically retarded. It's worth no more than 250 tops.

5s looks pathetic compared to the Samsung S4 (yet to see the N5)

Yep have both android and iOS devices. IPod touch ratgerr than iphone, but same shit. IOS drives me nuts. They have adfifferrent design philosophy which caterrsd to people who want a single way of doing things rather than choice. I underrsdtand the allure of that for the noob, but that's not my way. In anything: bikes, coffee, poker, alcohol, razors etc. The iphone is the Boardman pro of smartyphones - good, conventional, safe, limited, reliable, not the best choice.

Fine, you are clearly the Uber H4XX0R etc etc.

What's important to me us that the phone works, quickly and cleanly.
