Well, Apple...

Dear Apple,
I was talking to a friend and she solely bought Apple products because they were branded "Apple" despite the ridiculous price and low specs. Call me a hater/whatever but I still don't like Apple for this sole reason.
I saw this in the funnies today from the newspaper and I had to wake up early to post this before school..
And it continues..

lol!
I agree with you, but there are many more reasons to add
Just wait a bit that off topic addicts see your thread!

I have heard that apple products are getting a new kind of wireless charging system that runs off the smug and hot air coming from the owners mouths!

Awww, the little dog is wearing glasses. Funny strip.
good day.

That's what my whole family does.
Me: I got a new phone.
Aunt: What kind Apple?
Me: No. Samsung Vibrant
Aunt: What is that? I never heard of it. It must not be good since it's not an iPhone.
Me: No. It's better than the iPhone. It's android.
Aunt: Well, it's not apple so it's not GOOD at all.
Blah blah I asked her why the iPhone was so great, she said it's APPLE. blah blah blah.
I hate people that just buys thing because it's the latest trend.

Apple customers just like being abused.

I hate apple because the metal on teh side of my ipad is chipped and i cut my thumb on it
The word sue comes to mind

The only reason why apple is so successful is its (blame me for being a hypocrite if you feel like it):
1) propaganda (oh apple is cool and all that crap)
2) amount of dev's coding apps for it
3) low specs (haha), but great software utilization...[one part that htc fails at])
4) (redundant) but it's immense amount of apps.. again..

LOL. Reminds me of the argument I had with my co-worker when I got my Incredible. He was telling me that the iPhone was the best phone out there. When I asked him why, he says because of the nice icons.
I didn't know how to respond but to laugh.
This video is an accurate portrayal of him and a lot of iPhone guys I know. lol

If all the apps ever made for iphone were ported to android , this will create the most humongous market for android any phone company has ever seen ..
Android is the new green guy on the block, give it a year more, the app world will blow iphone away .

I had to buy a MacBook pro recently, not because its better (although the build and quality is top notch and just about unmatched) but because I needed it for iOS development. I hated how expensive it was for so little spec wise. $400 for the 8GB upgrade WTF! If it wasn't for me requiring OSX, I'd probably never would own a Mac computer.
That said, their phone's are great no matter how you look at it. Antenna **** up aside, most of the drop call blame should squarely be attributed to AT&T. It's a AT&T/US issue.
Now dont get me wrong, I don't blame anyone for hating the US iPhone due to its crappy service because IT IS a legitimate issue. I also don't blame anyone for hating the Apple brand because of it's positioning (style over utility). But when it comes to the iPhone, they got it right.
I was a Palm OS and WinMo user long before all of this, and many of you probably were too. But the original iPhone was such a huge leap forward in terms of what a smart phone user experience should be like. It wasnt as versatile as WinMo but what it made up for in day to day experience was well worth sacrificing some of the utility.
Today iOS 4 has progressed to a state where you pretty much can't complain. The user experience is still top notch and only matched (and maybe even succeeded) by WebOS, and the utility that used to be missing is now there. The phone itself is quality (of course with its issues like almost any other phone). The specs are aggressive, competitive and well priced unlike their other products.
What made the iPhone good is now being matched or exceeded by others (Android/Web OS). But like I said, it has progressed and still is one of the best mobile OSs out there. Hell even the jail breaking community is not much different than what goes on here.
I own both the EVO and a iPhone 4, and if there's one thing that the iPhone still does better, it's giving a amazing experience straight out of the box. I have to spend hours and hours to get the EVO running competively, and I'm still waiting on some things to come through via the amazing developers here, and while I could (and probably should) jail break my iPhone 4, I haven't yet. It runs great as is. And that's a large part of what's keeping the iPhone slightly ahead with non techies.

It is worth to upgrade to Galaxy s2?

hi, currently i'm using galaxy s. Do you think it is worth the upgrade to galaxy s2?
I already saw how smooth the galaxy s2 browser, i never see any other android phone can do this, even nexus s also can't achieve this smooth. I'm not said other android is slow, they are fast but not in term of smoothness. Even galaxy s with hardware accelerated browser still can't achieve this(lack of optimisation?)
I also read that the upcoming galaxy s2 use ext4 out of box, so the lag should not present in the galaxy s2 like the original galaxy s. Plus with 1.2ghz dual core and 1gb RAM, there is no way it insufficient of RAM with it blazing processor. Here the latest benchmarks for galaxy s2, it score really high although at stock ROM.

I know we should not judge the phone from the synthetic benchmarks, but at least this show how the true raw power of this phone.
So, if you given the choice, would you upgrade the phone to the new galaxy s2?

Depends almost entirely on how much money you have. Even the smallest upgrade is 'worth it' with an unlimited budget, while even the biggest isn't if you can't afford it.
As for me it's impressive but I won't be spending hundreds on a new phone after just one year unless there is some breakthrough in functionality. Slicker screen and smoother performance are nice, but other than that embedded flash video what does it do that my SGS can't? (note I'm not really dying to hook my phone up with hdmi) When the next gen is talking higher screen resolution and there are apps/game with more demanding CPU/GPU requirements, I'll be all over it.

I'm going to be getting it, not sure quite how soon though
I'm mobile, please ignore any spelling mistakes

Worth what? Depends on how much it will cost you, and how much you will miss that amount of money And ofcourse how important having the latest phone is for you.
As for me, I'm not going to buy it just yet cause the SGS still satisfies me, but sure its worth it Its a major upgrade in many aspects. I havent touched one yet but from what Ive seen and read it seems like a seriously badass gadget
So yeah, as far as replacing a perfectly fine phone for a new one is ever worthy, this definately is it, though probably not neccesary yet (sgs still performing with the best of them). Depending on how often you buy a new phone you may or may not want to wait till replacing becomes more urgent. :shrug:

it's not a necessary upgrade, unless you just want to have the latest and greatest
the SGS is a pretty beefy phone with the proper custom ROM
in fact it's one of the few phones that it can truly do hardware decoding/encoding of multimedia files, and play any game you want.
there's hardly any true reason to get the SGS2 unless you want the new 4.3" screen, and Dual Core CPU, and a bit of extra RAM 1 GB instead of 512
minus the 128 for OS itself that means like 896 usable instead of our current 384 usable

I dont know when you last had 384 usable after the OS is loaded but for the rest of us theres not much more than 100-110mB left after the OS loaded, having 512mB more is one of the biggest pro's of SGS2 i suppose, the lack of RAM is one of the main things holding the SGS performance back especially with big apps.
Still, since better specced phones are only now starting to appear, SGS has no issues with any current apps so for now its a luxury not a neccesity.

Nah, cause when my contract run out, we'll be looking at the Galaxy S3 with quad-core and a gig or two of ram

Without reading whats written up there.
The one and ONLY reason that will make me switch from SGS i9000 to another phone will be the screen resolution. NOTHING else.
The SGS i9000 is fast and fast enough. So no, for me its not worth to upgrade

Yes, htc sensation have high resolution but so far for now,the game developers still not support the resolution in game, so maybe we will see black border?
SAMOLED plus surely hard to resist, for me it like a good upgrade...

Personally Ill get the galaxy tab 10.1 instead of upgrading my phone^^

I'm getting it as I'm due an upgrade in 2 months, however I was always going to replace the SGS because of the poor bluetooth interaction with my in-car system. Aside for these factors I wouldn't have replaced. Whether it's worth it has been aptly answered by haloimplant, I think the question should be would or wouldn't you be getting it and why?

It IS worth, however it is way too expensive for me

What's the best Nexus One replacement this holiday season (2011)?

Many of us are probably due to replacing the N1. It's turning 2 years old, people love buying phones this season, and ICS-friendliness could be a factor.
The Galaxy Nexus is the default choice for many N1 owners, but the latest Nexus doesn't feel like the Nexus One before (a no brainer choice).
I mean, here are some advantages of the Galaxy S II over GNex:
Possible big price and availability advantage
Full RGB vs. Pentile
microSD card
more hand- and pocket-friendly dimensions and weight
8mp + 2mp vs. 5mp + 1.2mp cameras
ARM Mali-400 MP vs. PowerVR SGX540
Gorilla Glass vs. "Fortified Glass"
Due to current huge market share, GS2 has many available accessories and strong support (despite being new, they have almost as many threads in their xda subforum as what we have here for N1)
It gets more complicated. The GS2 may be an easy choice for some, but having hardware buttons can be a deal breaker. Having those physical buttons can make the device inferior/obsolete. Are the buttons that big of a deal?
Thoughts?

Surprisingly, it seems that the galaxy nexus's screen will render text better than the GS2 even with its pentile disadvantage, so I wouldn't consider that a negative. Obviously we'll have to see when the phones are in people's hands though.
I'm going with a galaxy nexus, mainly because google remembered one of the most important things from the N1-the trackball notification light. It's on the same place on the galaxy nexus as it was on the N1, though it's obviously missing the trackball

To be honest, all of my gripes with the nexus S were fixed with this-no more cheap plastic back, *hopefully* decent camera and video drivers, HDMI output, storage space (only somewhat though-no SD isn't ideal but 32gb is the max this would hold anyway), and a notification light. I couldn't care less about the processor and gpu being weaker so long as it delivers a consistent and smooth experience.
And one more benefit to using a phone that doesn't have a strong market share-you won't be using the same phone as everyone else
Also, buttons aren't making your device obsolete if you pick a GS2. I'm playing around with the SDK port on my N1 and the only difference with the new setup on buttonless 4.0 devices is that long-pressing home has turned into its own button, the menu button is now an on-screen button (represented by a vertical ...) that appears on one of the action bars, and the search button has disappeared. On devices with buttons, the ... button in an app disappears and is toggled by the traditional menu button, and long-pressing home will bring up the recent apps. This is the best they could do without fragmenting legacy devices.

I've got the N1 and I'm on TMo. I can't stress enough how aggravated I am that Verizon gets the Galaxy Nexus first! The TMo version BETTER be right behind it, as far as release date!
Here's my Win/Lose breakdown of The Galaxy Nexus vs. the Galaxy S II
* (GSII Win) Going with the OMAP4460 on the GN was a total 'WTF' for me. Almost a deal breaker.
* (GN Win) With a 4.5" screen, the GSII has only 800x480 rez!! That's the same rez as my N1 now with only a 3.7" screen! Not even a kick-up to 960x540! Unfortunately this is a deal-breaker for me.
* (GN Win) Though the Galaxy Nexus has a lower megapixel rating, it's got the zero-lag shutter and supposedly better low-light capability. As well, it shoots full 1080p/30fps.
* (GN Win) The GN being Pentile screen becomes a moot point when you factor in the 1280x720 at whatever ridiculously high dpi.
* (GN Win) I agree with OJ, having the LED back is great!
* (GN Win) It's got the NFC Chip. I just recently read that NJTransit is going to be supporting Google Wallet at a bunch of stations and buses. This is great for me.
* (GN Win) it's got a Barometer chip! A Google Dev cleared up the reasoning behind the baromter...Faster and more accurate GPS lock!
* (GN Win) It's got ICS pre-loaded and it's a Google phone. So it's got the new OS and it'll be the first to get all the updates/fixes.
The Galaxy Nexus is top of my (very short) list as far as choices for my next phone, but because they pulled back the reins on the CPU and are coming out on VZW first...I'll be keeping my eyes open for what all comes out on the market while I wait for a TMo version.

If you look at the press release for the Verizon GN and the Droid RAZR, you'll notice that the RAZR's press release uses the word "verizon exclusive" multiple times and the nexus's press release has no mention of the word "exclusive" anywhere. Don't get your hopes down until they announce actual, final availability.

****, of all the stuff ive seen, i missed that. Its a done deal now for me.

Galaxy Nexus, because it's a Nexus.
Simple, isn't it?
One big advantage is in my opinion is "fastboot oem (un)lock", ok other vendors also offer this unlock but not the re-lock
And I love that Screen (actual ppi is higher than SGS2)...

Only a small small small minority of Nexus One users can successfully fastboot-oem-lock. In fact if you wish to take your phone back for warranty repair, one of the phones with a one click root is a far better option.

I think the camera is a let down for me I was hoping samsung pushed a new lens for better quality pictures. Also the non gorilla glass might suck if you dont take care of the device built quality looks to be the same as the GSII.

Your view on bb10?

So blackberry 10 was just released. What are your thoughts on the z10 and the q10?
I think the z10 runs on a snapdragon s4 plus and has 2 gigs of ram with a 720p 4.2 inch display(355ppi). The q10 might have similar ram+processor but i think the screen has a smaller and obviously it wont have as many pixels.
It is definitely capable of competing with some new phones IMO. But that's not why i created this thread. I want to see your thoughts.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using Tapatalk 2

Correction: the Z10 runs on the OMAP 4470. The Q10 shares the same specs sans screen-estate.
I really don't like hardware-whores who are downplaying the Z10 purely based on the OMAP. Which is ironic seeing as how Google phones are a success because of their software. (with the exception being the Nexus 4).
The Z10 could be a success depending on how well they innovate in the OS. When I first heard that unlocking the screen could be as simple as double-tapping: I was impressed in the same way a small rock that ripples can become a large splash in constructive interference. The specs are basically mid-range at this point, but then again, so is the iPhone 4 too (and that has 512 RAM). Difference being that the iPhone 4 still performs as smoothly and gracefully for all its intents/purposes and its audience. I think the Z10 was designed with that kind of mindset. When a phone feels smooth enough, when the phone does everything you need it to do: maybe you but most people won't care what's under the screen.
We're seeing the move away from removable batteries, Micro-SD slots, and smaller screens. Personally, the direction the industry is going (as evident by the Nexus 4) dissuades people like me from upgrading. I don't need a huge-ass 4.7+ screen, I love the comfort and convenience of flash cards, and removable batteries, I definitely like the square-like aesthetics of the Z10 versus the general trend of bar-soaps.
While I'm not in a hurry to get a Z10, I will closely follow the news surrounding it. The BB10 OS is what will really make the Z10 shine but it's a double-edged sword if it subpar: much like the Windows Phones. But so far, feature-wise, I think the Z10 has its bases covered.

I like. Looks like a huge comeback for Blackberry.

BB was a wonderful device,
now it just looks like a modded version of android,
they should have focused more on business and government consumers rather than the mainstream market

BlackBerry Exchange Server, or BES costing $99 plus fees AND no compatibility with legacy devices is killer. BlackBerry should know better when there are other cheaper options out there. As for the OS, it still feels extremely business oriented which is a great thing. I own a Galaxy S III right now, but I would purchase a Z10 to have as my secondary business phone. It's the right size, the specs don't have to be spectacular as with older versions of the OS it's hardware integrated and it's styling is better than most Android devices out there. I think it will overtake Windows in terms of Market share but won't be as successful as Android or iOS devices.

New competitors are a good thing. Old ones trying to make a come back will just leave early adopters with unsupported devices. Anyone who really thinks rebranding and 2 mildly competitive flagship phones is enough to save RIM (now Blackberry) is delusional.

GS4 owner just got a Nexus 5, and its great

The Nexus 5 looks big in pictures but is actually smaller than my galaxy s4 with a very thin case on the G4. And the Nexus doesn't need a case because the back is is rubbery and grippy, beautiful! Also, it feels absolutely premium in terms of build quality and materials.
The screen is brilliant, bar none the best I've ever seen. And better than my iPhone 5.
The camera shutter sound is very subtle, in fact I'll keep it on
The navigation keys are a lot closer so it's a lot easier to use one handed.
Speaker phone is awesome: loud and clear.
Needless to say the phone overall is as fast as all hell.
Nexus 5 screen is vastly easier to read in direct sunlight
Where does the Galaxy s4 beat the Nexus? So far all I've found is the speaker volume, which seems to be a little low when playing videos. That and the replaceable battery and memory card slot.
Its my first day with the Nexus 5, and so far, so good.
Just thought I'd give a little feedback for those of you who are on the fence about switching. I have both at the moment, but my S4 may soon be on Craigslist.

Hows the camera
Sent from my SPH-L720 using xda app-developers app

I've only taken a hand full of photos, but so far the camera looks very good. Plenty of detail and great white balance.

I've been considering switching as well - but there's a few things that keep me on the fence. The S4 has AMOLED (which I prefer to IPS, but subjective) and removable battery/microsd. And the battery is larger on the S4.
But as the other user asked, how is the camera? Apparently it's not as good due to flawed software, but there IS image stabilization. Hmm...

When you put the Nexus 5 next to the galaxy s4 with both at full brightness , the Galaxy looks muted, fuzzy, dim. Take your phone to a Best Buy or Sprint store and have a look for yourself.
And here is one of my first few snapshots.

Was thinking about switching myself, but I've heard mixed things about the camera. I'd have to test it myself in person before I could make a decision

I used to get all anal about about the cameras too until I realize that all I ever use the snaps for is Facebook. I have real cameras for when I get serious.

Good to know.

Perhaps you got a lucky phone or your just so happy to get a new phone you look past the defects but according to this thread and what ive been reading over in the nexus forums i dont think theres ever been a phone thats had this many problems out the box. If i was LG i would seriously be concerned bc i think there gona be seeing thousands of units returned

I just glanced at that thread and looks for the most part like people being super anal about non issues. But hey, if you get a bad one, send it back. Right?

meh...I was really into the phone at first and was considering selling my S4, but after reading a bunch of reviews and people's opinions on it...it seems meh and I'll just stick with the S4 for now. Went to the Nexus forums and nothing but fanboys in there jumping on anybody that says anything bad about the phone and trying to defend their purchase.

Anyway, here are a few more shots from the camera, and then I am off this topic. Good luck everyone.

And here are the few more snaps I shot with the Nexus.

Time will tell about the battery life. Some have said it's so so, and others have said it last for days between charges.
