I think for Apple, even iPad 2 is still usable until a certain degree now, iPad 3 and iPad 4 is working damn fine with all the latest apps, maybe slightly lagging at infinity blade 3 ONLY as it is 1 of the few that actually utilize A7 new GPU. Summore apple product come out new one also look the same. Over android side, the pressure of new product is even intense. Samsung come out s3 on oct 2012, note 2 dec 2012, then april s4, note 3 oct 2013 roughly lol.. Apple has less pressure oledi lo, summore the ecosystem is well maintained, ipad2 still can use now, still selling also. While i my asus tf300 is so laggy now, even refresh factory settings also lag. Nexus S, even on android 4.3 also lag. Android is less optimized that's what i can say.
Ppl can say apple keluar so few product, sure easier to optimize. Well, that's their marketing strategy, nothing wrong with it. I am not fanboy of either side, iphone sux becos of ths small screen, but i realized that after i get ipad air, i do most of the surfing and news reading on iPad than my S4, which i used to use it as my reader. Now i know why iPhone is small, apple so good at marketing, iPhone is small enuf to carry, and for all the mobile function, while ppl will buy iPad to satisfy their needs for surfing/reading on the go, without crimping their eyes on bigger sized phone or phablet, yet iPad is easy to carry around, especially now got iPad Air.
i do miss widgets on android. Miss the customization esp on the shortcuts and cleaner homescreen. so for me, an android phone is still essential to me, if i am not going to bring my ipad around.
U carry around ipad air? I salute u. Try carrying around mini retina in the future.
As for iPhone, yeah boycotted it until they come out with big screen ip6. Using Android as well.
As for tablet, No WAY I will go android. Their app store is pathetic and full of 'x' stuff, unless that is what u r looking for... Apple tablets are the only way to go, as this is the device u will buy many apps and games.
Phone I need bigger screen to browse Internet and fb. Iphone size is just pathetic. I am in 30s, already squinting my eye to see the screen text. So, can't wait for ip6!!
