First of all, im sorry if there is another topic similar to this. Pls advise or move to according thread.
Running of Android made me tempting with HTC Desire (Linux kernel) but an Iphone with Unix kernel too. Both average quite stable. But based on your experience to those just changed to HTC, why changed to HTC (Android base) Software friendly how? This post has been edited by xjukie: Jul 26 2010, 10:23 PM |

Android FTW! 'nuff said
 Bro, you're asking in Android's board, you're likely to get response biased towards Android Well, it won't be biased anyway..Coz Android is the best anyway..My suggestion? You seem knowledgable in UNIX systems, try getting the HTC Desire.. My challenge? See if you can switch to iPhone after that  Oh, and btw, we have our own Malaysian version compiled kernel for Nexus One..That's how interesting Android is.. ...Ever heard of iPhone's kernel made in Malaysia? |

i think iphone is just for ppl that wanna have fun n don mind customizing their phone.
android is just the type of phone that enable u to do all the customization. you can make your phone totally diff from others. now that google is going to launch(or already launched?) the software that enable ppl to make apps even without the knowledge of programming. you can simply create any simple apps for your own. |

The amount of money you pay for an iPhone, you might regret once you realize how un-customizable it is.
And if you like Linux, forget about the iPhone. You will have a hell of a time transferring files because iPhones need iTunes installed on a machine before it can transfer anything. Whereas Android phones come with SDCards which are just detected as normal USB disks. The only real advantage of the iPhone is it's huge app store and generally better-quality apps. |

Its quite strange that you guys find Iphone OS boring. Its pretty loaded with apps and games woh. I thought Android is pretty limited on this side? I find that people like to mess with their phone so that they look different from others but I really think thats really should not be a plus point regardless how you look from it. I choose Android because I want Flash and I like how the whole idea of Web, Email and OS intergration by Google as well as the good job from HTC on Sense.

For me I chose the Desire over an iPhone because it appealed to the nerd in me, the ability to tweak to your heart's desire won over the polished but controlled nature of the iOS. In terms of design aesthetics it's a toss up as they say beauty lies in the eye of the beholder. Apple to be fair makes excellent products that work out of the box most times and their user experience IMHO is still the one to beat, notwithstanding my choice of Android. However, the Android platform is incredibly vibrant and the inherrent potential therein is the one thing that excites me more. At the end it's up to your individual preference.

If you ever get into a situation where you need to share files by BlueTooth, the RM3k+ iPhone is going to make you malu when your friend with his cheap Nokia phone can do it but you can't.

i m using both iphone 3gs n desire...
iphone is a sleek phone, browsing and scrolling is smooth like velvet, desire at times is kinda "lag". and iphone is better when comes to the availability of app... they hv been in the market longer than android...and of course it will be much better if its a jail broken phone. but my heart is with android,.... ok i hv to admit, u hv to go thru the learning curve. it took me 1 day just to figure out how to add my contact into "favorite" group. LOL ...but hey, thts wat makes the phone more interesting ..haha sending grp sms, grouping of contacts and the weather UI are the big plus of android (HTC sense?) over iPhone. but i encourages competition, the more fierce the competition between this 2 OS... the more beneficial it is to us, the end user. oh, one more point, (personally) i found tht surfing internet is faster on my HTC desire than my Iphone...using 3G line... i just noticed tht last night This post has been edited by qqmeng: Jul 14 2010, 04:42 PM |

The iPhone has higher-quality apps and a nicer UI; but the Android is more customizable, and is easier to develop apps for.
I think iPhones are good for normal users, but Android phones are better for power users |

i choose Desire cuz its Google!! Guys its the damn Google we're talking about..
If you're using iphone of course those who dont know anything bout the android world will say "Cool~~", but for me, i love feeling cool to myself instead of people saying my phone is cool. I love the freedom, not caught in the Apple's net(i mean the OS and everything are just fixed, fitting their own needs). |

Apple has nicer and unique apps while Android is more customizable and most of the apps are free. |

I am old man 55 already and I love my Nexus. Rooted it the 2nd day and now after using it more than 3 months , I already lost count how many times I change the kernel, the various roms, radio etc. I juz love to tinker with it and customize to my liking. I also have iPhone , 99 % of time in the drawer. Use it only to sync video podcasts and listen audio books when I am on flight. The iPhone I find is just a good out-of-the box for those who love games/play with apps without worrying how to make it better and you can't unless you jailbreak it and try some of the apps not approved by Apple. |

apple is for ppl who appreciates style and simplicity. iphone users have better things to do in their life, and dun spend more than necessary time to 'customize' or tinker arnd wt a fone.
while for android fones, is mainly for geeks and nerds who gets a high from endless tweaking and trying to be different juz for the sake of being different. in other words, pathetic. |

Why is it Apple fanbois so pathetic? Girls drool over you cos you have style, cos you got an Iphone. Is it being the case you have much better things to do or just being too stupid for an Android?while for android fones, is mainly for geeks and nerds who gets a high from endless tweaking and trying to be different juz for the sake of being different. in other words, pathetic. LOL... just joking. Sometimes it really make me ROFL real bad when people are being rip few thousand bucks while being told how to hold onto their beloved phone thinks that others are not in the same league. Phone companies that did not teach you how to hold onto your phone is pathetic... GET IT NOW!!! Anyway, I think Iphone users also JB their device which makes it tweaking as well. Whats the difference now? Besides, Apple got a big AppStore with tonnes of games inside. You claimed you got better things to do? I seen a couple Iphone fanbois trying to shoot each other with their Iphone on the street... This post has been edited by andrekua: Jul 17 2010, 06:44 AM |

And people are complaining that iPhone is too simple and non-customizable? I bet most of the users out there don't even bother about customizing the phone. iPhone is good because it's simple and thus user-friendly, look is very personal, it does look good to me compared to most of the HTC phones out there which look... weird
 When stuff gets too complicated it gets unstable too. iPhone is hella common though... Almost 50% of people here in UK are using iPhone |

haha yea... but in the end what you want from that phone... entertainment that it, and of course the main thing is the calls, sms and also mms... that serve the purpose of a handphone with entertainment...
frankly speaking those are calling Iphone user lame or pathetic might be one themselves too for android system... each system has their own advantage and also disadvantage, just like last time WM and Symbian, but i don like both... coz WM device will never last you 2 days of calls abusing and symbian system is not that user frenly... that is my say... eg compare a N97 with Xperia 1/2... which will give you an upper hand???? WM or Symbian, Battery Life (talktime/stand-by time)??? i still can't make up my mind which to choose, android (desire) or iphone 3Gs... both has the thing that i want but both does not give me god talk time, well that i what i concern most, over 8hrs of talktime on the spec is more important than anything else... but again there is some stuff that u need to consider also, the UI interface friendliness, the file sharing also and lastly the problems of the phone and system itself... just my single cents... |

Added on July 17, 2010, 8:53 amon top of that... i dont think iphone 3gs spec worth the price... This post has been edited by kidmad: Jul 17 2010, 08:53 AM |

well hard to say with the current promo it is quite attractive...
BTW isn't it there a lot of ppl with smart phone already outside... Symbian and WM is everywhere and now BB also growing fast... so what you want to be special??? Android??? u r wrong it is not special at all my fren... last time during WM and Symbian launching time has similar condition also, wow very good, multi function and plenty of stuff to play with... but now it is very slow now.... so it will happen to Android also... what is desire, nexus 1 or Galaxy S... cheap phone with multitasking in some ppl point of view... want to look for special phone??? my boss last time using 1, Gold Edition Nokia 8800 if not mistaken for that phone with normal basic function only is it worth that much?.... that is special ppl will see u like "wow you are rich or special" that is my common sense... there is nothing as cheap and not common... just like car... u buy Mitsu Lancer GT coz it is common, come on it is a common car anyway although i did not own one and can't afford 1... BTW argue also no use as every individual has different preferences... for me Iphone serve my purpose and currently with the price it is more attractive than desire coz it is cheaper for me with my kinda usage... but Desire is nice which is higher spec and it's battery is changeable, that is what i see the most obvious advantage of it over Iphone... OS customization, support more freeware, faster processor, better camera did not make much different as u think... simple and easy life for JB or rooting the phone as no trace after that, u need not to worry about warranty also This post has been edited by michael9413: Jul 17 2010, 09:14 AM |

tech geek i thought nor nerd haha... depends on individual preference, as i found ppl tends to say they bought the nicest things for themselves even though it is not...
i think the main purpose to get such these phone is mainly the cost of the things... coz android give you more freeware than apple, that is the main concern in malaysia coz ppl not willing to pay a few ringgit for the application and games they wanted |

I am having the same problem too to choose btw iphone 3gs or HTC Desire/Legend!
Few years ago i chose Nokia symbian phone over Sony simply because i can install apps into the nokia phone. And i was happy with it and i did play with it for a couple of weeks or months. However, the case is, i don really use the apps or install any new app over the past 2 years anymore. |

i lost respect to Apple since the handling of the antennae issue, was initially waiting for iphone 4, but then this issue came out
hence, i bought a Desire. For my app store fix, i'll stick with my 3rd gen ipod touch |

it's a statement that suprised me. why wld sumbody need a phone to show off his macho-ness?
anyway, let's not go out of topic. iphone is for users who have better thgs to do in their life other than spending it customizing de fone, changing the colors, icons, etc. for nerds who want to do all that, thr's android. it's all abt choices of what u r. |

I've used an iphone for a year and I think it's a really great phone. You buy a smartphone because you want to do few other things with it not just for calls or messaging. If we compare both android and iphone, you can basically do the same thing, surfing, emails, watch movies etc so in the end it's just a matter of choice. It's good to have choices so that we can pick the right one according to our preferences.
If I were to choose between an android and an iphone, I would have to consider the hardware features and price of both of them. It's easy for iphone because you only have 1 or 2 options only but for android, you have to do quite some readings. You cannot simply say android or iphone is better, my understanding on this is if you think android is a better choice, that doesn't mean it's the same case with other people. What people wants is a phone that can do things that they want, if it manages to do it then people will be happy. If not then just get a different phone, and I don't think there is a phone that can do everything, keep in mind that everyone has a different definition on 'everything' |

Ever see any other phone company giving out 'rubber bands' to cover up their connectivity issue?  On a serious note, each phone serves it's purpose, some prefer the iphone, some prefer Android. Such is life, u can't just make a silly assumption like u did above. Androids are for nerds and iPhone are just for simple minded fools? That's just...... well i'm lost for words.  |

Get on with your life please. You ain't got anything to say other than that. Back to the topic, I really wonder if Google ever think to revamp their contact app. I think it really involved way too many steps to get into contact. Even Nokia way of handling calls log, contact is slightly better. Something need to be done fast. |

with iPhone, u're being force into having all those Apple think is cool... and u can't say anything... my Hero is the first smartphone i buy, i was considering a few options before choosing Hero... try Win Mobile and i don't really like it... this is an interesting read on fanboyism http://youarenotsosmart.com/2010/05/19/fan...-brand-loyalty/ |

Well, I think not all Iphone owners are fanbois. I do respect Iphone despite Apple being big bully. It spark the big push by Google. It's still a pretty capable OS without doubt. What makes me choose Android is because Google open approach and willingness to incorporate whatever into making it a better experience. Although IPhone still has the better UI, it lacks some of this openess.

Go do something meaningful dude.. you ain't got anything to brag about. You should just quietly wait for your IPhone 4 to enjoy your Face Time. Oh, please don't brag about it though cos its so yesterday. What else do you know about Android anyway apart from that and its by Google? You should stop making comments that make you sound like a IPhone lunatic and technology noob. Don't just come here and say stupid thing like you got better things to do but still managed some time here, enough to make yourself sound like idiot tech noob who know nuts about anything. Apple maybe the pioneer that really jump start the rush of all these interests, still they had done very little to make the next huge step forward. It's just like what Nokia did in the past. Being too restrictive on certain things does turn people away. The only thing I have ever bought from Apple is time capsule and regretted it since. Apple has the right idea but the actual product is disappointing. One, I have to install Apple software to make it work and secondly they don't admit when they put out a junk design which make these product malfunctioning. Not to mention you paid a premium for it. Apple brainwashing works as you can see. Just because their IPhone is works, it helps the sales of other related products. |

Anyway, i'm not denying anyone's liberty of choosing whatever device they want. It's their money, who am i to complain, rite?
Please make it clear I'm merely incensed by the some apple fansi snobbish attitude towards anything's non-apple. In cantonese idiomatic expression, a dog looking down on human.... |

True Iphone owners will appreciate Iphone as well as Android. In a way, I think Android helps them too by forcing Apple to open up access more and more in the future. WiFi teethering would the first thing on their mind. |

But no, just difference in opinion... Buyer always choose what they are comfortable with, it is their money anyway... There are some dumbo Android users too, serious. They even ask me "what is root your phone"~ *heck* No point arguing, soon Android will copy how iPhone (4G) run it multitasking function... It saves hell lot of battery power.... But as always, this is just a forum. Ppl are free to voice their difference in opinion.... |

You are not using an Android phone, are you? Then you dont realise whats eating up the battery. Its not multi-tasking. Its something else. The point is, you guys have no idea what Android is like, all you do is read reviews. Its useless. If reading reviews is useful, I would have bought one long ago instead of two weeks ago. Although I dont own an Iphone, I have tried it out myself a number of times. The impression is simple. They cut down the steps and make it seamless. I would never thought it work but it did. Thats why its revolutionary. Press a button and it closes the program. Android tried the same approach, the only difference it minimise, instead of closing it. Hello, wake up please. This is not about modifying icons, font or whatsoever. Please dont come here reply some bullshit and expect people to respect you. This post has been edited by andrekua: Jul 18 2010, 08:10 PM |

Desire I have a htc HD2 ( also hard SPL ), iphone 3GS ( also jailbroken , now 99 % inside drawer rarely used ) and NexusOne ( rooted) : Best - NexusOne, HD2 and last iPhone 3GS. I use the iphone only when I am on flight to listen to audiobooks and view podcasts. All thes phones have their pro n cons. Which one is better depends on your needs which features appeal you most. For me is now the Nexus, very closely behind HD2 while the iPhone sadly is far behind. IP guys - Don't flame me - is just my personal opinion. But I'd said the new iPhone 4 is very much improved. But the fact it is still a closed system and need to be managed by iTunes is still a turn off for me, but know what - I'll still buy it just to keep myself updated to the latest. Just like the iPAD, even though knowing all its limitations I bought it - it's more of at toy to me as it can never be a substitute for a notebook or netbook.

I'm an owner of an iPod touch 2G and a HTC Desire, and I'm so satisfied with the Android now. Playing with real 3GS phones and looking at what iPhone 4 can do, there's really not much deference with my iPod touch. Sure multitasking is in but Android does that. Android plays flash, and tons of customization and modification that you can do, even without rooting. Battery giving a problem? You have an app to handle that, basically you have apps to do almost everything lol. Apple has more apps but android's apps can do more things since Apple restricts a lot of stuff.
Anyway, I use whichever is the better one, and this round imo, Android wins. iPhone 4 is all about pretty stuff, no substance. Please do correct me if I'm wrong though. Added on July 19, 2010, 11:12 amOhh, don't even let me begin with that retarded syncing and no bluetooth of the iPhone  This post has been edited by Reis: Jul 19 2010, 11:12 AM |

wonder how an android fancyboy look like...
QUOTE Google Discontinues the Nexus One Android Phone Google has pulled the plug on the Nexus One, its once highly anticipated smartphone. The last shipment has arrived at Google HQ, and once those are gone there will be no more Nexus Ones for U.S. consumers. The handset will still be sold through Vodafone in Europe and some Asian carriers, and developers will still be able to get their hands on one, but it looks like the Droid phones on Verizon will carry the mantle for Google's Android mobile operating system. This is the end of the company's grand experiment with an unlocked consumer handset in the U.S. Following disappointing sales, Google had already closed the Nexus One web store two months ago, so this final nail in the coffin was already overdue. Google announced the end of the line on its blog on Friday, but there was so little fanfare or interest in the story in the tech scene that the story slipped through the cracks. Though the device was popular with geeks, most American consumers probably just didn't understand the concept of an unlocked handset, and Google didn't put much marketing muscle behind the device. Thus, it's no surprise that the phone has been discontinued and hardly anyone noticed. It's too bad, actually. It was a fine device; it got even finer with the Android 2.2 update a couple of weeks ago. This post has been edited by kentang_peranchis: Jul 19 2010, 05:53 PM |

LOLIts not the end of the show. You are an idiot, you know that... Even in the beginning, Google aint really into handset business. They got no ideas at all how to make a good handset. True BUT they are very very good with programming which is why they invented Android. On top of that, they got all the creativity to unlock whats can be done on the phone which you usually does on the pc. Nah, Im not gonna talk about the Iphone anymore. With due respect, despite Jobs' own self acclaimed esteem, Iphone OS remains one of the most polished OS ever which I like, even though I dont own one.

The problem with the new iPhone4 are the owners and to-be owner expectations of it. During the keynote address when it was launched, Steve Jobs ( aka God of Apple ) repeatedly says the iPhone4 is the BEST smartphone in the WORLD. He repeated this again in the 16 Jul press conference. He did not say it is one of the best - he said again is the BEST IN THE WORLD
I do not recall any CEO's of other phone makers ever saying such so proudly. So of course, all iPhone4 owners expect the BEST - equates it to PERFECT. Frankly, I see the issue of the antenna is small issue - just being overblown by the media, some bloggers, anti-Apple chaps and also iPhone supporters. But Steve Jobs coming out to explain was remarkable but using other phone makers to compare is disgusting and so unprofessional. Since he says iPhone4 is the best in the world - he should not make such comparisons with others. He should instead tell us what steps Apple will take to improve it and maintain his claim ikt to be the BEST in the WORLD. Personally I find that he leaves behind a bitter taste in my mouth after seeing his speech - it was 101 % defence all the way. But I will still consider buying it when it is officially available here, not that I am a supporter , just I like to try out new gads. This post has been edited by benny888: Jul 20 2010, 03:31 PM |

I kinda agree the Iphone is the best smartphone in the world right now. Steve is a damn arrogant but an Iphone 4 + Itunes App Market = best smartphone which is true.
However, I dont need the best smartphone. I need the most flexible smartphone. Android is the answer. LOL... I would truly consider Iphone when Steve admit that he farked up with Flash. |

Someone pasted article about NexusOne being discontinued and tried to say Android failed? From where they are coming from, I can clearly see the insecurity. Let's say Apple didn't continue on Iphone, it will just die.
Here's the difference in Android. You see different manufacturers coming out with varying specs and different pricing that can cater to nearly all income groups. You can get a 1K Android or a 3K Android, up to you. Nexus One was Google's flagship product two years ago (iirc) to signal the intent of Google's support towards it's Android platform to boost market confidence. Back then in the time where Android was still in it's early stages and only hardcore fans following. It's no longer the case now. Acceptance for Android grew and there are tons of Android phones to chose from now. |

Let's say Apple didn't continue on Iphone, it will just die. The nexus one is released to show that even google can make phones and have consistent software update to it plus supporting it. The nexus one also acts as a benchmark so that hopefully other manufacturer could continue on creating better android devices. I honestly see that nexus one is a developer phone now and not so fancy for me. But i respect that even a developer phone has a good hardware and flexability. Open-ness is the key of nexus one, sadly now we see that motorola is going un-open on the droidXHere's the difference in Android.

yes the good thing about android is the choice. u can pick any android phones according to your budget and your liking. and with several manufactures competing with each other, new phones will come sooner when we compare with 1-year cycle of iphone.
anyway, there will always be the appeal for apple stuff, as usual. |

My advise just ignore him. It's already ingrained in his mind iphone is the better choice, so let it be. I also have an iphone 3Gs and I have consistently rate it last versus my nexus and HD2 but I do not condemn people using it. Perhaps he love the apps store/the games etc or multimedia features which are iphone strong points. Everyone of us has our own requirements and needs - and the best phone is your own choice ; let no one affect you |

iphone has created a symbol or status of its own. It is more to form and fit rather than function. The symbol or status had made it self like a religion. Very hard to convert. This is a very successful marketing. Is like Toyota until the recent recall which really hurt their brand. It will take more than just functionality or antenna issue to impact the branding of apple image.
this symbol has affected the world due to the apple brand. Is like people owning LV or COACH bag, they all works like ordinary bags, but it is the symbol and status that count. So apple fanbois doesnt really care what doesn't work, or how many times it hang, or whether the battery last or not. For them, is as per design and is ok to be different to the rest of the world. But, you may say they discussed those issue in their forum arent those a problem? Well they are, but the symbol of status suppress every single issues this things carries. It used to carry special or different kind of functionality like those pinch effect of flip flop pages of apps... but is common now among android and even symbian 3 etc etc. But, iphone started it... For me, any android phones is very capable of delivering great capabilities even a simple file transfer via bluetooth which iphone still stick with their principle. It can get many free appps and great games too. But is just an OS for mobiles. Even MS start to get worry with Android because it eating share on tablets and soon web PC. In the end, none of the android phones will win. HTC has made a great moved to run Android largely in US market. until this brand move it self up to a great religion like iphone, it will just be another android phones. But, the recent hoo haa in US on Androids phones like HTC Evo, Droid X, Samsung Galaxy S has created or advertised it self to the apple owners that there is a new thing out there. Some jump into the wagon to be early and some still hasitate to convert. Those who realize the capability, enjoy the new Evo and let their Iphone become a game box. But the growing numbers of androids enable daily worries apple. The recent quality issues I read in the net has lot of relation to get it into market 1st before the android army start flooding the market. A very smart moved by apple. Till then, I dont care if people see me carry a SE or a HTC, I just enjoy an android very much and my x10 mini works like wonder to me. My brothers who owns Iphone 3GS hasitate to compare functionality with me know my camera is better, I got really great 3D games, my GPS works well..... and the list goes on. I wonder why? It start to make the 3GS look sooo errrrmmm CHEAP?? maybe.... I dont know. |

He cant even construct a sentence that would be easy to understood, let alone debating unique features of Android vs the simplicity of Iphone. He will keep on bragging about something then deny it, then focus on another thing and then another denial. I just cannot stop laughing my ass reading the final paragraph. At first, you got choices and then you must compromise and sacrifice. But later, you want the best screen, better UI, better clarity, better sunlight readability (whats legibility anyway, i need to install dictionary) and huge, very huge app store. What happened to the compromise and sacrifice? I bet its our wallet then. LOL... I dont usually dig at Iphone owners but this dicky fanbois needed to be crucify to reduce the fanboism in the Iphone community. |

previously using iphone switched to bb & lastly switched to android.
overall i can say i made the right choice. but if you r toward business phone bb is the best, because of its true push email/data. btw, for computer os i think mac os rules! no way im using windows. |

Smartphones - iPhone is good but it cannot meet my requirements ; for these the Nexus is tops follow by HD2. I use the iphone to listen to audiobooks and watch video podcasts when on flights; really underutilized |

They seem to be interested in making new devices rather than supporting existing devices. Sure we can root the device or go for custom ROM, but I still prefer official ones |

You can blame lack of progress because HTC got so many products tied to Android and yet each of them is on different platform which required different programming. All the while they still need to develop new firmware for the newer phone as well.I enjoy the convenience of having the device to sync all my mails and calendar (GMail and office e-mail), RSS feeds, twitter and facebook updates, weather, chat anytime I want via GTalk or MSN Talk, and surfing the web on a 480*800 3.7" screen.

Compared to HTC, Apple has a lot less work to do because they only have Iphone to deal with. Thats also the reason when they work, it simply just work cos there is no need to adapt to other platform. Thats why Apple dictatorship is well accepted despite a few shortcomings. |

I posted instructions here (just ignore the wipe battery stats part):-I enjoy the convenience of having the device to sync all my mails and calendar (GMail and office e-mail), RSS feeds, twitter and facebook updates, weather, chat anytime I want via GTalk or MSN Talk, and surfing the web on a 480*800 3.7" screen. But many just won't understand, because they think: - HTC stable meh? Always hang one wor (bad experience with Diamond and WinMo I guess) - Android can play games meh? - Seems like Android don't have that many apps right? - Android good meh? Still new, sure very unstable hor But anyway, not that I care The only problems I have so far are:- Battery life could be better, hopefully a Froyo update can improve this somehow (don't tell me not to sync emails / turn off mobile data etc, because I think it defeats the purpose of the device) - Slow updates from HTC - froyo has been there for some time but I'm still stuck with 2.1. They seem to be interested in making new devices rather than supporting existing devices. Sure we can root the device or go for custom ROM, but I still prefer official ones http://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1493150 |

QUOTE(benny888 @ Jul 24 2010, 10:56 AM) Taylor n hnr : Same scenario - desktop MAC , i use windows only when I need it to flash my HD2. Had been on Mac several years and I always exhort to everyone I know, if you decide to buy a new desktop/notebook, buy MAC. Once you use a MAC you will NEVER want to use Windows OS anymore. same here i bought a windows netbook especially for flashing firmware on my phone whether it is blackberry or android. both of this mobile os only have windows version firmware flashing software.Smartphones - iPhone is good but it cannot meet my requirements ; for these the Nexus is tops follow by HD2. I use the iphone to listen to audiobooks and watch video podcasts when on flights; really underutilized |

The media really, really, really loves to write about Apple and the iPhone these days. It reminds me of Google in 2004, when the media fell in love with the concept of search.
Besides the antennae story, which I find hopelessly over reported, the latest iPhone rhapsody has been how many iPhone 4s Apple has sold - apparently, 3 million as of last Friday. Friday was July 16th. The iPhone 4 launched on June 24, so that'd be 23 days to reach the 3 million mark. 3 million phones in 23 days - that's a pretty strong clip, the fastest sales of an Apple phone to date, Mashable reports. If I do the math, that's more than 130,000 phones a day. But did anyone in the press notice Google's little announcement, the day before Apple launched its iPhone 4? This one? The one where Google said, and I quote: "Every day 160,000 Android-powered devices are activated -- that’s nearly two devices every second." Yep, that'd be 30K MORE phones a day than Apple. And my guess is that Android's pace is accelerating, while the iPhone 4 is probably sliding downward, given how many folks bought it at launch (Mashable reports that 1.7 million were sold in first three days, so 1.3 million the next 20 days). In fact, if you do THAT math, and divide 1.3 million by 20 days, you get 65,000 iPhone 4s sold each day, which is nearly 100,000 less, PER DAY, than Android phones. Is that story anywhere in the press? Not that I see. As far as I can tell, Android-based phones will far outnumber any other smart phone by year's end. Apple, meet your new Windows. It's name is Android. Read more: http://battellemedia.com/archives/2010/07/...p#ixzz0ubzmxktj |

I believe in the future the iphone will have the same fate as other apple products, with less users once android has matured enough and phone manufacturers managed to provide an exact hardware spec the iphone offers, with the same or lower prices. Unless apple manages to comes out with another revolutionary idea once again.

i also hope android can survive if it becomes better and gives more to normal users rather than juz techno-nerds.
the reason why android can born is solely bcos apple changed the world with the introduction of iPhone. without iphone, geeks and nerds now wld only get to play with windows mobile. unfortunately so far, android still unable to match apple's iOS masterpiece even though it was a seed of apple. for the normal user who has better and more important thgs to do other than juz playing with fone, then once u've used the iphone, the only reason u will switch phones is bcoz u wanna go back to buttons fone.

OK GUYS , FIRST OF ALL , IPHONE IS NOT A SMARTPHONE BY ITSELF, WHY DO I SAY THIS ? REASON : LOOK AT IPOD TOUCH, DO YOU SEE THE SIMILARITY IN IT WITH THE IPHONE , ANSWER : YES ! , APPLE SIMPLY ADDED THE CALL FUNCTION INTO IPOD TOUCH AND CALL IT IPHONE. DUDE , YOU CANT COMPARE ANDROID SMARTPHONES WITH A HYBRID MP3 PLAYER THAT CAN CALL OUT, ARE YOU OUTTA YOUR MIND ? XD

QUOTE(bonanno @ Jul 25 2010, 01:20 AM) not Apple change the world...is NETWORK infrastructure change the whole communication way... dont you see why smartphone cant be hot in last 10 years...its due to the infra did not meet up the device... iPhone did some good job not only in marketing, but design of the revolutionary touch screen as well. I have to agreed that IOS is very fine platform..but do you think Iphone can be success in 2000 without the 3G infra? think about that.. What i do respect Apple is their marketing... 3G technology was there since some time ago, Maxis introduced it since 2005 - but the problems is technology wasn't that advanced and although phones like Nokia N70 supported 3G, the device couldn't make best use of the technology and the coverage was pretty limited. WinMo back then was really limited to hardcore "business users" and to be frank the OS wasn't that stable Credits to Apple for for being innovative and makes mobile data activities practical, but some ignorant iPhone users tend to think Apple "invented" a lot of stuffs such as those apps and games, push emails notification etc - a credit that developers , network and cheap labors in China should take instead. Android came late in the market, and it's only normal for those people to think that Google is copying all the stuffs that Apple "invented", which is not 100% right This post has been edited by samurai1337: Jul 25 2010, 07:36 PM |

It's okay to voice out your opinions, but of course back yourself up with some points: - super amoled can't compare to retina display, this is the power of apple - unfortunately so far, android still unable to match apple's iOS masterpiece even though it was a seed of apple - Choice, yes bcos it's open platform. But very unfortunately, no android maker can match apple in design. Besides, android kenot match iOS in ease of user friendly, wide practical use. All the while you've been saying Android is "not quite there", and Apple iOS/iphone is masterpiece, without any further explanation. It's okay to have preference and brand loyalty, but there's no point to make comparison if you do not have enough technical knowledge on Android to support your view For example, you say Android cannot match iOs in user-friendliness - this is very subjective so at least give some elaboration on exactly which area gives you such feelingNo offense dude, I just want to improve the quality of the discussion here, and want to prevent this thread from becoming Apple vs Google war This post has been edited by samurai1337: Jul 25 2010, 10:55 PM |

QUOTE(kentang_peranchis @ Jul 25 2010, 10:45 PM) nah. Ahem, at least this is one of the more useful argument which is valid.nothing to do with what type of person u r. but i guess even though with a perfect keyboard, like all thgs there will be some ppl who simply prefer a different type. that's what makes the world an interesting place! Well, to be honest, the keys on Android is closer than on Iphone. Why no problem? It really depends on the type of Android phone you are using. Most of them are using Desire, Nexus One, Galaxy S which features at least 3.7" screen which should solve that. Im using Legend for the 1st month. I have to say it looks spacious enough but I do get wrong keys all the time. The Iphone have a much larger screen on top of wider space between two keys. Its subjective, but I was really annoyed at first but the predictive text saves the day. It was minimal unless you got 3.2" Android phone. I still get wrong keys on Iphone (maybe becos Im used to using stylus with my 5800) but not as much as I did with Legend. Its getting better now. I remember on first week with Legend, the key I used the most is the back button. LOL... Imagine using more of back button when typing a long comment like this on Legend. Kinda sucks but its getting better. I like swype, but hate the speed and it totally kill pinch n zoom. |

QUOTE(kentang_peranchis @ Jul 25 2010, 11:07 PM) dude, all these points i am sure android users know and realise. Paper writing huh? I think I will wait till I saw Iphone 4 first. Bumping up resolution is good for movies and games but for fonts, I will have to see that first hand. Fonts are weird. Just like our LCD. If you put them on native resolution, it look sharp edge but when you feel they are hard to read and zoom it, they look awful. Thats why Im holding back my judgement. and u misuderstd me. perfect keyboard is iphone but sumbody may dun like it and prefer sumthg inferior like android's build-in keyboard. -of course everybody knows super amoled is not so high-rez as retina. retina display is like reading paper writing. summore sunlight legibility of super amoled is terrible. in country wt bright sunlight like ours, this is important - i have tried touch interface of desire (android champion) and i really cannot get use to it. it's difficult to type out but the best way to say is that android touch, swipes are feel unnatural, better den winmo however. - this is proven by the sales. As for the sunlight, I dont know. But honestly I dont think I will be too interested to know at all. Its not that important. ALL of them are hard to see under direct sun. It does not matter because I think I will look at it later under a shade than to be standing under the hot sun looking for something that I can barely see. I just think that I might add something here which make you happier. I barely see anything at all with my Legend under the hot sun at 4pm, the first and last time I ever tried. Under a shade of hot sun, no problem. I wont be standing under the hot sun to read my sms, that would make me look like idiots. Ah, and the touches, Iphone is more sensitive. Would I say easier, YES (You like that huh?). Cos I never get used to Iphone (never own one, just play with some), it was not a problem to me. As for swipes, I think unable to compare, cos Iphone are page base which requires swipe and most of Android is based on kinetic scrolling unless you have LauncherPro. As for Sense, I like it. You dont need to swipe across like Iphone did. There is a kinetic in it when you swipe fast, it just turn over easily or you can swipe it slowly but having to move your fingers further. I like it but cant really say which is better. Initially I prefer Iphone page based menu but after using Android, I think its beginning to feel okay with it because the app are sorted alphabetically. Apple menu are not sorted so that why I think page base work better for them. The most stupid is Nokia 5800. Menu aint sorted but with kinetic scrolling. Really hard to use at times.

QUOTE(kentang_peranchis @ Jul 25 2010, 10:28 PM) dat's the whole point. android can be tweaked, which drives the geeks and nerds crazy with estacy. but normal ppl won't be bothered. that's your own preference of "normal person", And what makes you think that we use a touchphone for the sake of it's keyboard? This thread was originally started so that iPhone and it's rival android os phone user could share their experience and timately letting the thread master decide which os is better based on his preferences. You're just being immature and obviously wanted to start a flame war in here, now gfto!normal ppl use the phone for easy, beauty. even until now, no body and not even the android nerds can get the touch keyboard perfectly right like apple does. there is a app for every need possible. so if u wanna get touchphone, makes no sense to get anythg other than iphone right? |

I think all of you should ignore these kentang chap. It is so obvious he is a diehard Apple iphone chap. He is so brainwashed that nothing is better than iPhone. The more I read his comments the more I pity his mentality. And I am in a good position to say this cos I also have iphone 3GS and had been using the series since the first 2G 8GB model.
Kentang love for the iphone is all due to his NEEDS which he feel the iphone meet it very well BUT he forgot one important thing - not everyone has same needs as him I am a good example ; repeatedly and repeatedly I have said in this forum, I still rate the iphone 3GS last compared to my Nexus and HTC HD2. Not that the iPhone 3GS is not good, its features DO NOT meet my needs as well as the Nexus/HD2. I have been using smartphones since the day it was available, OMG about 15+ years ago till now and AGAIN I wish to say there is NEVER a BEST smartphone. The best smartphone is the one which satisfy you most and meet your needs NOT your wants. Maybe the new iPhone 4 will meet my needs better - who knows until I get my hands onto it. But based on its features, I doubt so, perhaps will be my number 2. I'll tell you after I get it end this month This post has been edited by benny888: Jul 26 2010, 01:03 PM |

QUOTE(samurai1337 @ Jul 25 2010, 11:18 PM) - I never use iPhone keyboard extensively so can't compare - the point I was trying to make is that I've no problem with Android touch keyboard. I can type quite fast so far because the screen is big +1. - Retina display has higher resolution, you're right. But it also depends on which way you're seeing - Samsung's Super Amoled has bigger screen (4.3") and AMOLED is known to be more vibrant. And no, Super Amoled is known to improve a lot under sunlight compare to Amoled itself. It's up to personal preference in the end - Sales figure doesn't prove the technical superiority... Apple sell well partly because of their brand-name, all the hypes and their superior good marketing. If purely by sales figure, I guess most ppl will say iPhone wins... But is that the real figure, or is it just another marketing strategies to claim that iPhone do sell that many...? |

I have also use a wide variety of notebooks but I'd said when come to OS, Apple Mac OSX is really good and I'll not hesitate to recommend. However sad to say, I'll not say such for their iPhone . I still use Windows just because I need it to flash my HD2 and my previous windows mobile phones. Other than this purpose, it is not used . I bought the iPAD just as an old man's toy and I'll never recommend it if you think this can replace even a netbook. It is just like buying a BMW but instead you have a kancil engine. |

S-LCD is not a new product. S-LCD is just a name adopted for the panel that was manufactured by the join cooperation of Samsung and Sony few years back. Sony has since form a new joint cooperation with Sharp to better compete with Samsung.
This S-LCD is probably the PVA screen that Samsung is proud of because of the better depth of black compared to IPS. Nothing new. AMOLED is not new because two years ago, bought my wife a N85 which has AMOLED screen. Super AMOLED is new but I think switching from AMOLED to PVA, many will be able to sport the difference due to the stark difference in coloration. |

Seriously, whats so good about iOS4? Yeah iOS3 and before was great, BY FAR because there was no Android, but now? C'mon! Maybe Steve will finally drop the "I'll tell you whats good for you" crap and iOS5 will be awesome again, but for now, to hell with the iPhone.

Anyway, if you wanna know how S-LCD looks like, just look at Samsung PVA LCD panel. I dont like it at all. If you want LCD based, should get IPS. Many whom went for Samsung panel (which is what Sony is using as well), just prefer the better black level. Nothing beats the IPS color if you ask me. You know what panel Apple is using?? IPS... As for AMOLED, it would be foolish to say they look the same as S-LCD. Even an IPS panel look way different than AMOLED, let alone PVA. It boils down to how HTC calibrate S-LCD whether they will favor slightly more Red to reduce the difference to AMOLED. This post has been edited by andrekua: Jul 28 2010, 12:39 AM |

Sometimes, applications/games is why people opt for iPhone. It just works.
It's going to have some time before Android will do the same. Currently lots of companies (Latest example MAS Airlines) are making iPhone apps. This shows how important application is. That's what makes the phone interesting rather than the usual things you find on phones. As for fluidity, none can match iPhone just yet. If did, just barely. But once Android is polished further, I'm sure it'll pass iOS4 in no time. |

Lets just wait n search on that. Currently Telus r getting SLCDs on their desire in their stock. No news bout other carriers or other countries already got SLCD desire set currently in stock yet.This post has been edited by pluginbaby: Jul 28 2010, 11:05 AM |

In my opinion, this Android sub forum is good. At least not as strict as iPhone ones. In there, you can't even post negative stuff banning iphone, your post will mysteriously be deleted by the iphone fan boy mods. Repeated offence, and you will get a warning.
maybe just some tidy up need here. |

Hye guys! I read this thread like a few days back.. And it seems like so inviting me to have an argument too!! With iBoys then.. Well, Steve Jobs still with his antennagate problemo even his head also get baldy now... If im not mistaken, latest victim is 5800 right? Well, for me Stevie just don't want to take this matter so well because he already stated that "We'd spent billions for this antenna, so don't just hold your phone this way.." LOL!! anyway, iBoys... One more thing.. Don't get so happy with the performance of iOS4.. Still there're lot of main disadvantages out there.. It just, one of the main problematic (maybe will not be solved?) is the antenna.. Or so called "calls killer".. What? Got firmware update for iOS4? How about the Germany team that tested it and really upset about the result which shown that every calls made will dropped at last with only hold the phone normally like other smartphone? Wake up Stevie.. U're going down now.. Even Android is coming with Gingerbread in future time being..  |

wat he said is right... ppl got individual preference... is just like you say Vios is a damn bloody old technology car, City is much better with better technology... but yet the sales of Vios is way better than City, face the facts it is... that is just because the car reliability is better, if you really want to know the reliability of Toyota vs Honda ask some ppl which really has 2 cars...
So that is just personal preference, well pls tell me what you wanna do with the Smartphone??? Main task (and yet after millennium also same) Calls & SMS... secondary, for business or sales or marketing ppl is checking their stuffs on the go eg. emails, appointments, to do list, view documents and etc; but for normal ppl is just entertainment, gaming, music, movies and etc... do you see the point there... Android Fanboys face it, the phones with nice screen is HUGE (Desire, Galaxy S, Evo and a few others) in our pocket... it's apps in the market place is not as good as Apples Apps, and it is not filter, eg recently got a few of wall paper apps has the ability of hacking ur system... resource of apps unknown tends to have hacker living around the market place to intrude to ur phone... u also need to do something to ur phone to get full accessibility to the market like iphone (from what i read of)... and some of the smaller screen buddy will not able to upgrade to future system more than 2.2, but we are still waiting for news from google... and smaller screen buddy also will has limitation on apps too... Iphone Fanboys face it, the phone's reliability is not that good, i could not change the battery if it is flat like some others smart phones... its limited connection to the worlds outside is a major inconvenience for all of the user... and the major thing is the system cannot be majorly customized to some geeks users... what i see here there is a lot of fanboys in this thread, mostly is android... you all only say what you think but u did not think in a neutral position where some user prefer to have a simple system where they can click and use, but some prefer to has modifications on the system... it is just personal preference... u could not say to ur buddy like this: eg: "Bro, you gf/wife does not looks good at all, come on divorce/kick her off la... u can get a better ones..." and my story is, i had a fren whom always change HP got a desire and he sell off within 1 months... he verdict is nice to see and play with but complicated system... just like him some ppl prefer to have a phone which serve their needs and purpose and not to trouble him... that is just some example of individual preference... don flame me as i'm on the fence have yet to decide Android or Iphone, as i need a smartphone to support my job desperately... used WM b4 but the phones problematic already, major i could not really charge it, as it is a very old phone i don want to fix it... i only customize my phone for the 1st 3 months, after that i just use as it... as it meets my requirement/expectation already... *** could you all get a better life, rather than spend you time here wacking others ppl... y don you try to work in a smartphone shop and see what's ppl want... the percentage of ppl wants simplicity or much more customizable smarts phones... and how many of them are really go and play with their customizable smartphones for months after buying it...

Yeah, that's so right after all..auto or mannual car...? manuual has tons more advantages to auto.. yet people sill choose auto.. but what u can use.. not what others tell u.... OK.. make it as simple as we can.. iPhone and android.. Both have their own high-end features for smartphone family.. 1GHz processor, High res display, and even nice camera with huge pixels nowadays plus 720p recording anyone? It just the matter when iPhone users jailbreak their phones and Android users rooting theirs.. Both also will fully access the phone and can be granted as customizable smartphone.. easy to use or hard to use, both also same when applying to the smartphone.. it's either you wanna cross the limit or not.. ready to take the risk or not.. froyo and iOS4... both also have plus and minus.. one is trying to save the battery usage while the other one is fully optimizing the performance.. one with flash support, while the other one with html5 or whatsoever.. expensive? android also has expensive phones nowadays (but consider affordable to midrange people).. just say it.. galaxy s? desire? nexus one? but maybe because of brand marketing, iPhones are slightly expensive and maybe some absolutely save their fulus to just get this Apple brand.. satisfying? to be truth, i own an android now.. and planning to get new android soon!! For me, iPhone just have their own exclusivity and target.. Not much to choose right? while android is spreading anywhere now.. not to say HTC, Samsung, Motorola, SE, and much more which showing their willingness to share with everybody!! I like to do comparison and see which company is fully using the advantage of the same OS... sounds like android right? If iPhone then, you can only compare with their predecessors.. 3GS, 3G, 2G... coz they are the only using it.. and of course the latest is the best.. Different people have different taste and choice.. |

damn
after reading 6 pages, i see more android fanboys who calls the iphone fanboy fanboy. and what happens when android gets more users in the future ? R u gonna change to windows mobile or blackberry or symbian or webOS ? Since it is not cool anymore coz everyone is using android ? Fanboyism needs to stop y'all. I think the samsung galaxy S is cool, but then, the iphone has better apps imo. For me im gonna wait for windows phone 7 before buying a new phone |

But then, which one do u think better to get updated faster, processing, and even producing nice widgets, interface and docks?? From the way Apple, Google and Microsoft launching new thing, if we look into productivity now.. Of course Google or Android is increasing, Apple or iOS getting slower increment compare than before with their antennagate prob now, while Microsoft is totally lost because their last 'interesting' project is WinMo 6.5 which anyone dare to compare with Android or iOS? Let say, HTC HD2 against Droid X.. Both has 4.3" screen right? WinMo 6.5 vs Android 2.1.. Same processor.. Just look at the lame interface HD2 which nowadays someone already flash it with Froyo or Eclair.. Why? Getting bored? Or because HD2 can't use Win Phone 7 at all? C'on, eventhough their Win Phone 7 get great feedback from mobile's bloggers, maybe during their launching time other company already fall in love to just get Android, Symbian, Meego or other Open OS to produce their own smartphone?

let's go back to the beginning of the question to conclude the answer.
why shld i switch from iphone to HTC (Android)? let's define htc as legend, or desire u r a geek or nerd who - loves to tweaking, customize ur phone, chge the theme, colors, fonts, etc. - enjoys showing off de customized fone interface to ur frens n relatives. - always carry arnd a spare charger - loves to wear baggy pants |

QUOTE(faridaizuddin @ Aug 2 2010, 07:28 AM) then, if gingerbread or android 3.0 released? iOS4x maybe? windows phone 7 will coming this end of year right? Except that u can hold on patiently to wait new OS from MS.. Until windows phone 7 comes out, we'll never know how often it will get updates or anything bout its apps. That's why im not gonna buy a new phone anytime soon. Maybe in december or early next year. By that time hopefully more cool phones come out, and the iphone4 antenna issue is solved, although it's not a big deal coz if i buy an iphone 4 i'll be using a case anyway.More choices r bro.. But then, which one do u think better to get updated faster, processing, and even producing nice widgets, interface and docks?? From the way Apple, Google and Microsoft launching new thing, if we look into productivity now.. Of course Google or Android is increasing, Apple or iOS getting slower increment compare than before with their antennagate prob now, while Microsoft is totally lost because their last 'interesting' project is WinMo 6.5 which anyone dare to compare with Android or iOS? Let say, HTC HD2 against Droid X.. Both has 4.3" screen right? WinMo 6.5 vs Android 2.1.. Same processor.. Just look at the lame interface HD2 which nowadays someone already flash it with Froyo or Eclair.. Why? Getting bored? Or because HD2 can't use Win Phone 7 at all? C'on, eventhough their Win Phone 7 get great feedback from mobile's bloggers, maybe during their launching time other company already fall in love to just get Android, Symbian, Meego or other Open OS to produce their own smartphone? And dont compare with winmobile 6.5 la. Every one knows it's crap lol. I personally tried the microsoft zune interface. And i like it. It's the same with windows phone 7. Im gonna wait for my fren to install Froyo to his samsung galaxy S and try it again. The only thing i dont like bout the new android phones is the big screen. I dont need 4 or 4.3 inch. Even my iphone 3g is too big for some of my pants/jeans |

QUOTE(xjukie @ Jul 13 2010, 08:42 PM) First of all, im sorry if there is another topic similar to this. Pls advise or move to according thread. Ask yourself a few questions:Running of Android made me tempting with HTC Desire (Linux kernel) but an Iphone with Unix kernel too. Both average quite stable. But based on your experience to those just changed to HTC, why changed to HTC (Android base) Software friendly how? What is it with the Desire that tempts you? Surely, it isn't because of the kernel. That's not something you can interact directly with. In what way are you dissatisfied with your current phone? If you can't decide for yourself, stay with your iPhone. |

So can i say that most iphone fanboys can't take a joke coz they think too highly of themselves. Elitist fanboys much? Sorry i rarely go to the iphone thread so i dont even know if posts get deleted or not. Up to u what u want to say bout the iphone fanboys. Coming in to android forums and calling android users fanboys is a stupid thing to do. So that says alot even if you're trying to act smart. In fact you've just proven what most ppl think of what sort of ppl most iphone fanboys are. After all, what the TS wanted was a healthy discussions (yes im very sure of that). And then that kentang guy came in with all his android bashing. And the annoying thing is ppl keep on feeding the troll. And my post was clearly directed to these ppl. I dont care if it's android or iphone thread. Why cant everyone just have a healthy discussions without bashing each other ? Perhaps im expecting too much Nvm Pls continue with the discussions |

QUOTE(AskarPerang @ Aug 3 2010, 03:15 PM) Yes, I agree with your points there. somehow,i got no problem with mod at iphone..i mean he did a great job to keep the forum clean except a bit of strict..It's not possible to post anything banning iPhone over at their forum. Just read the first post of their every thread to know the reason why. Haha. We need a mod for Android forum too. Be a friendly one and not like those iPhone mods. just imagine everyday also got ppl pop in and create new thread regarding how to fix this,why cant connect internet,etc when there was a pinned thread created for troubleshooting the problem... |

we can't say anything bad on iPhone.. imagine, i saw someone tried to create a new post regarding on iPhone problem in Mobile Phone section but it has been closed by the mod (they ask him to create post in Apple section).
but when we post something "bad" it Apple section, it will be deleted. conclusion, if you want to use iPhone, simply listen, obey, and agree with everything they say. they wont listen to the customer. if you can't, then don't use iphone. |

10 out of 10 htc desires i had sold, customers come back and complain dat the battery only lasts abt 1/2 day.
phone calls and sms volumes were average. then of coz, ask them to try out for 2 weeks to get the battery fully working. after dat mostly is one day usage. bcos of dis, always got screwed by dem bcoz recommend pariah fone.  tried searching de internet and lowyat.net/android for the answers but there is hopeless solution. den finally de reply is “if u want improved battery life, dun use it dat way” finally de solution to them is, “to improve de battery life, u must disable de facebook/twitter/push emails etc” den got screwed a 2nd time because customers always say “if i disable all those functions, why the heck i want to pay so much for? those are supposed to be its selling point right? right?” now, i always advise my customers to choose htc androids unless they intend to live a geeky and nerdy lifestyle. if they want a stylish smartphone with all de necessary apps functionality, best UI and excellent battery life, better choose the iphone. not suprisingly, until now nobody complained abt iphone ever since started selling 6 months ago. go figure! |

From my past experience with both i3g and i3gs, I never managed to get 1 full day battery life when I use the phone as a smartphone. I don't do many calls but a lot of sms, web browsing and emails on 3g connection plus playing some games. Normally the phone would only last for 6 to 8 hours top, in which I bought an external battery to prolong its use. And for the same reason, we see a lot of iphone external battery being sold in the market. So I can't actually say iphone has an excellent battery life, as a normal phone maybe yes, but if you start using all its features, which is why you bought the phone in the first place, you need to have extra battery or be close to a wall socket.

Well then..
My friend is using 3GS now.. And 1st thing i ask him is battery usage because this problem even GSMarena team observe about it.. Even till iphone 4, the battery is can't be changed if spoil or what.. Maybe that's why Apple manage to sell millions of their phones? "battery spoil? Get new one r bro!!" Yes, my friend only said that if he use his 3GS for phone call for about half an hour sometimes the battery left 50% only.. And then, watch video for half an hour after that, a warning come out to connect the charger..

QUOTE Geeks have more brand loyalty :source:A consumer survey reveals that geeks are likely to spend more on the products they like and stay loyal to their favourite brands. Geeks are also more susceptible to advertising ploys and buy more goods online. The survey, undertaken on behalf of tech website Geeknet and market research agency Forrester Consulting and released July 27, was conducted across the United States, Britain and Germany. It divided respondents into three categories, "IT Geeks," "tech geeks" and "non-geeks." IT geeks were defined as working in information technology or other jobs involving hardware or software, while tech geeks don't work in IT but agree that technology is important to them and is something they regularly follow. The survey found 20% of geeks from both categories agreed that advertisements helped them decide what to buy, compared to only 12% of non-geeks; 25% of geeks purchased the advertised product or service online whereas only 16% of non-geeks did the same. As well as being more susceptible to advertising, geeks were also more loyal to their favourite brands with 60% of geeks versus 17% of non-geeks agreeing that when they found a brand they liked they "stuck to it." In addition to brand loyalty, geeks were also more likely to pay more for products they liked and 29% of geeks agreed that "owning the best product is important to me," whereas only 14% of non-geeks thought the same. With viral advertising campaigns, online supermarkets and phone apps playing an increasingly important role in everyday life, technology is no longer the preserve of a knowledgeable few, but geeks may still be the ones to ask about new innovations - 53% consider themselves "the person who knows more about an interesting trend," while only 22% of non-geeks felt the same way. - Relaxnews Added on August 4, 2010, 11:27 am QUOTE(bonanno @ Aug 4 2010, 10:20 AM) Kentang.Got 16gb micro sd?

 from the figure, it is clearly said that iPhone demand will increase in 3rd quarter to 4th quarter every year.. then it will drop again. but who will going to stop android? from the figure we can see android will continue increase steadily at a fixed rate, and there is no sign and no factor for the demand to decrease. same situation war between Mac and Windows in early 90s.. but this time, iphone need to fight with Android (much more "powerful Windows", take not that!)

that is why i refer to Mac VS PCs wars.. Microsoft choose to distribute their OS through various manufacturer, at the end Windows won (95% PCs in this world using Windows).. same to Android, Google choose to make it open and distribute it through hp manufacturers (that explain why Google discontinue Nexus One), while iOS will be exclusively for iPhone only.
iOS also be used in iPad, but Android soon will come out with various tablet similar to iPad, then again iOS will lose. while Android become matured day by day (similar to iOS now version4 already), we will see the real Android strength in 3.0 (Gingerbread) by year end. it just matter of time, android start a little bit late but is catching up very fast :-) i am not sure why u are so "skeptical" on Android. what is wrong with android? if i may asking you? you look so "uncomfortable" to see android continue to grow and become matured OS. |

What does Android do to piss you off so much until you denounce it? As a former iOS, Symbian60, SymbianUIQ, WinMo6.1 and current Android user, I know exactly the pro & cons of every of it but I don't diss any of it for the sake of trolling. I went to iPhone thread, there's a troll. I went to Symbian thread, there's a troll. I went to Windows Mobile thread, there's a troll. None of them gave any constructive reason why it sucks. Instead generalizing the common issues which can be found in all os. Your reply isn't exactly smart either. |

Android is a less rigid alternative to iOS. It's for people and developers who want more freedom. You can't stop something like that. Yes, Android may just be riding on Apple's success, but then everything has to start from somwehere. Even if you want to denounce history of art and create an art no one has done before, you'd still be basing this 'new' art on the history, because only then you'll know what no one has done before. Everything's created based on something. Android was created because of some lacking in all the OSes in the world including iOS. Simple. I think Apple will continue to have marketshare success no so much due to the iOS alone but due to marketing and overwhelming development support. It's not the Holy Grail by a long shot so we shouldn't treat it like it is.

How about Apple and it's iOS? (anyone interested to join with?? Oppsss!! sorry... other company need to 'jailbreak' Apple first.. )And the fact is.. iOS was unveiled on 2007 while Android 2008.. So, for nowadays figure with Android is climbing a little bit high (don't mention about percentage growing ) and late for a year revealed..Does it make any sense for Google for it own brand and Android tagline "an OPEN OS'?? I don't think Google need any back up in future time being as that number "4" is already going down a bit and so far i know, Apple will only release new OS every once a year which mean they have to fight using iOS4 with upcoming "official" Froyo 2.2 and Gingerbread 3.0 anyone?? kentang_peranchis... Androidianz only have one way of thinking.. Getting faster, reliable and being smart without criticizing other competitor..

QUOTE(epool86 @ Aug 4 2010, 01:11 PM) that is why i refer to Mac VS PCs wars.. Microsoft choose to distribute their OS through various manufacturer, at the end Windows won (95% PCs in this world using Windows).. same to Android, Google choose to make it open and distribute it through hp manufacturers (that explain why Google discontinue Nexus One), while iOS will be exclusively for iPhone only. +1iOS also be used in iPad, but Android soon will come out with various tablet similar to iPad, then again iOS will lose. while Android become matured day by day (similar to iOS now version4 already), we will see the real Android strength in 3.0 (Gingerbread) by year end. it just matter of time, android start a little bit late but is catching up very fast :-) i am not sure why u are so "skeptical" on Android. what is wrong with android? if i may asking you? you look so "uncomfortable" to see android continue to grow and become matured OS. Apple still don't realize how they down on l last century |

android is de only viable touchscreen os in de market.
let me explain. for normal users, considering UI aesthetics, security, function and stability, it is not de best, not even 2nd best. the best is still iOS and followed by webOS. 4get abt symbian touch n windows mobile. bcos there is no way for htc, sony ericsson & motorola to get iOS or webOS, the only choice is android, which of course is free. and of course ppl will buy android bcoz these desperate manufacturers put their best machines to use android. u think normal users gives a rat's arse to customizing, changing fonts, downloading widgets, etc? no! they bought android bcoz those brands put in hd video, high megapixel, slim to attract customers. of coz, i foresee android will stop growing and only appeals to techno geeks and nerds. after normal users get fedup with the weak battery life, technical mumbo jumbo, un-natural touch ui. and every normal user who used iOS b4 simply cannot use android OS. and the iphone is the most style in de mkt right now. with most selection of apps. apple is unbeatable and is de best choice for normal users. but it won't appeal to geeks or nerds who goes crazy over android for its customization. |

i realize this guy keep saying apple is the best, iOS the best without giving proper valid point of argument to support it. How can you convince others?
And stop being stereotype , saying ALL android users are geek, techie or wateva you call it. You're just making yourself look shallow, Mr phoneSellerThatKnowsItAll. This post has been edited by jujx: Aug 4 2010, 11:11 PM |

QUOTE The NPD Group: Motorola, HTC drive Android to Smartphone OS lead in the U.S. Android now installed in one of every three smartphones sold at retail. BlackBerry OS share drops 9 points to 28 percent. PORT WASHINGTON, NEW YORK, August 4, 2010 - Riding the wave of new handset introductions and wide carrier distribution in the second quarter (Q2), the Android smartphone operating system (OS) continued its upward climb in the U.S. consumer mobile phone market, according to The NPD Group, a leading market research company. For the first time since the fourth quarter (Q4) of 2007, RIM fell to second position, as Android took the lead among operating systems in handsets sold to U.S. consumers. NPD's latest wireless market research reveals that Android accounted for 33 percent of all smartphones purchased in Q2, ahead of RIM (28 percent) and Apple (22 percent). "For the second consecutive quarter, Android handsets have shown strong but slowing sell-through market share gains among U.S. consumers," said Ross Rubin, executive director of industry analysis for NPD. "While the Google-developed OS took market share from RIM, Apple's iOS saw a small gain this quarter on the strength of the iPhone 4 launch." Based on U.S. consumer purchases of mobile phones in Q2, the top 5 Android smartphones were as follows: Motorola Droid HTC Droid Incredible HTC EVO 4G HTC Hero HTC Droid Eris "Blackberry 6 will soon offer features that have been popular in recently launched Android handsets, such as support for capacitive touchscreens and a WebKit-based browser. However, the Blackberry Torch lacks the large screen allure that has characterized the best selling Android devices at its price point, including the Droid Incredible and EVO 4G," Rubin said. Model selection and promotions continue to play a role in the race for carrier dominance. According to NPD's Mobile Phone Track, Verizon Wireless has maintained its lead among top carriers for the last three quarters comprising a third (33 percent) of the units sold in the U.S. mobile phone market in Q2, followed by AT&T (25 percent), Sprint (12 percent), and T-Mobile (11 percent). In Q2 Verizon Wireless continued their buy-one-get-one (BOGO) offers on all smartphones, including both RIM and Android models. In spite of an overall decline in the number of mobile phones purchased year over year, the ongoing popularity of both messaging phones and smartphones, which are generally more costly than standard feature phones, resulted in slightly higher prices for all mobile phones in Q2. The average selling price for all mobile phones reached $90, which is a 3 percent increase since Q2 last year. Smartphone unit prices, by comparison, averaged $143 in Q2 2010, which is a 9 percent decrease over the previous year. Data Note: The information in this press release is from Mobile Phone Track – NPD's consumer tracking of U.S. consumers, aged 18 and older, who reported purchasing a mobile phone. NPD does not track corporate/enterprise mobile phone purchases.

this is one example of truly die hard fan of iPhone, i respect his loyalty. steve jobs could run out of business without support from people like him.
anyway, most of topline model will get froyo update in coming weeks. i would say this will reduce the fragmentation issue. and one more thing, i think we will see much more solid OS in Android3.0 soon, at this point i think Android will become more stable and trusted (escp in Corporate/Enterprise segment), who know with the recent "issue" with blackberry, if they will choose Android as a official mobile platform for their company in the future :-) conclusion, android is getting better and better everyday, while Kentang can still continue with his beloved iPhone and his philosophy. |

The mods in these android and windows mobile forums, I can see are open minded. I am a regular at the other iPhone and iPad forums too. If a chap like ken tang would post comments as such there belittling iPhone I can guarantee you his posts will be deleted. The mods there are very strict, sometimes too much. There are few there who take criticisms very personally and will attacked back as if is a great vengeance. I find all android chaps here are more mature. I have commented previously ken tang has every right to his opinion, I said I find him entertaining. Let him rant just ignore him.
I have iPhone, nexus and hd2 all are great, all have their pro and cons. But I can clearly see apple pro guys are more fanatical to the extent of senseless and sometimes nonsensical in their opinions of other platforms. I love all my 3 phones but I only sleep with one. When I am ask by my friends which is better, my answer is always all are best and I will explain each feature to them. Based on my explanation, they can then decide which is best for them. For those who know me personally I pity those chaps who just like to critiicize just for the sake of it. I always view them as possessing an inferior complex and ranting against others a sign of self importance and self gratification. These I learn after working for the last 35 years with all sorts of personalities. You might consider me an old man who doesn't understand the newer younger generation but the fact is one dun prove own's worth and value by belittling others. Such chaps in my organization will always stay there right at the bottom rung. Such people however will be first class politician. I am guilty of this too when I start to talk about political issues This post has been edited by benny888: Aug 5 2010, 10:06 AM |

QUOTE(Andrew Lim @ Aug 5 2010, 10:25 AM) Which one? Depends on what I want ; if I want to read a ebook before i sleep - HD2 : The ebook features and functions is the best of the lot. Both Android and iPhones are way way behind. Music/watching my video podcasts - iPhone. Reading up latest tweets, facebook, RSS feeds, emails, browsing - Nexus I agree with this. I don't think Android is for everybody. Sometimes it can be quite frustrating to use. I wouldn't recommend an Android to my mother, whom I know still uses classic candybar phones. I'm an iPhone developer, but I have a HTC Hero, and I can see there are some things that iPhone does better than Android. The hardware and software is integrated better. The iPhone GUI feels faster, although it lacks Android's customizability. I haver said before, I have the best of all world with me. As a daily phone Nexus. This might change as I am getting the iPhone 4 soon - is a natural progression, when you have something new you'd always want to use it to know it better Agreed with you, my wife best phone is still her Nokia 1100 - simple as she use it only to call and some SMS. She always says I am more in love with my gadgets than with her !!! She said I crazy - go toilet always bring the phone and now even worse bring iPAD !! As a developer you are right ; similarly other Android and Windows developer will have own opinions about theirs. The best and most beautiful aspect is , we the consumers will benefit and we have a choice in what we want |

ok i'm a just a regular guy like anyone outside there who hasn't landed hands on any smartphones , most of my buddies are using Iphone , so of course i've played with it , but not HTC or any other brands ...
I'm actually deciding whether to get the new Iphone4 or HTC , so i hope forumers here can highlight without me going over so many pages ... my basic needs for my smartphone gonna be :- - clear calls , as in voice are sharp and clear - checking emails are priority - SMS are priority as well as a communication between client and I ... - easy to use interface , without me thinking much where to press or where to choose when in need of a function. - i need to write a lot of short notes especially - FB and MSN is an added bonus - durability as well , as i'm always on the go , i do have rough movement at times , so i want the phone to be slightly tougher while in my pocket. i guess that's all i can think off and i hope ppl who had own both phone can really help me out , i'm not really a tech guy but i prefer a phone that work for me and not vice versa ... thanks in advance ... |

Get the iphone. 3gs should be enough.
Btw, if we refer to the article posted by mr potato, 5.2% of iphone 4 owners reported dropped calls? We know apple sold like 3 million iphones, so 5.2% from 3 million would be, 150000 owners? This post has been edited by sanosizo: Aug 6 2010, 12:34 AM |

Android battery life should be able to last at least 1 full day for heavy usage
I doubt anyone will need 2 (let alone 3) batteries for a day of usage. Of course, it's a good practise to bring the micro USB cable along in case you need to charge it on your laptop during working hour if you have a long day |
