Samsung Vs Apple

Do Not Sell My Personal Information
Sony Z3 is gonna be the top dog phone pretty soon here. Can't wait to see it in the wild
 
Don't understand the incredible interest in phones. Check your shit and coMmunicate with people, who gives a fuck beyond that.

I'll just save my seven hundred bucks
 
I've always had android phones, just for the principle of its openness and a feeling of being aware what its doing. IOS always seems to opt you into things in the background under the guise of 'seemless user experience'

My wife just bought a cheap android phone, Huawei that runs jellbean and it struck me just how much functionality android gives you for free. Its a pretty decent smart phone, for £50 as most features are a prerequisite from android with a branded GUI by the manufacturer
 
a smartphone is a tremendous value as long as you arent buying a new one every year or 6 months, you get so much all in one package.

phone, internet (social media, netflix, everything), camera, MP3, video, GPS, gaming
 
Actually can't wait to get the iPhone 6 next week. I can actually trade in my iPhone 4 and get $200 for it and they said I can use that to buy the iPhone 6.
 
The battery on Apple devices may last longer, but at this point, its hardly important. I doubt you're going to drain your 2013-2014 Android phone down to under 10% battery no matter what you're doing, within the span of a day. Their batteries last a long ass time too. And, you can swap one out for an extended battery or a second battery if you want.

The Apple interface is smoother and sleeker, but it is what it is. The apps from the Apple Store are generally of better quality (both graphically and content-wise) than alot of the ones on the Android Play Store. But as time goes by, that gap narrows. The only reason I love my iPad is for all of the music apps that Apple has that Android doesn't.

The fact that you can't pop a 64-gigabyte SD card into your iPhone, can't use a regular Micro-USB plug to charge it or connect it to your PC, have to use iTunes to put files/music onto your phone, are all huge deal breakers for me.

Not to mention your girlfriend's nudes might end up on the web.

Agreed.. My phone is my life. I travel a LOT. I use my phone to basically run my business. I can take the wife out to a resort, and because I have my trusty Android phone (with WiFi Tethering), I'm not beholden to the shitty hotel WiFi signal. Wherever I go, I can hop on the local system and get broadband usually.

I simply could not do this with an iPhone, or any other device really. It's very important to me to have a good working, modern, and powerful Android phone.

I kill my Droid DNA in about 4-6 hours of use. Damn you HTC for copying Apple with their shitty sealed phone crap. I WANT MY REMOVABLE BATTERIES BACK DAMMIT. I miss carrying my phone and 3 extra batteries for the day.

Does anyone have a 6 Plus yet? Haven't been to the store to test out it's size in person but I get the feeling these things are just way too big? I often carry my iPhone in my pocket and can't quite see it fitting from the specs online.
