So....99% of the users, who are non-techie, say that Android lags?  hmm.gif  Thanks for the confirmation bro.  thumbup.gif

___________________________________________________________________________________

But seriously though OP, if you're going from iOS to Android, at least pick something higher keras. Nexus is like the steaming pile of dung in terms of hardware and build quality. No expandable SD slot = no go.

Depends on their phone lar mang. Majority of Android users buy ~RM1k low to mid range, of course lag lar. If there's one thing that Android is doing wrong, its that the OS has a fair amount of bloat. This issue can generally be resolved by techies by tweaking the kernel.

Premium smartphones are fine.

KitKat seems to have resolved that somewhat but its not likely to trickle down to the lower end models so they have to hope there is a custom rom built for them. However, from this point forth even the lower end models will have decent performance.

I might be a droidfag and dislike Apple but even I don't simply go around pushing Android phones on other people either. I've already stated my phone buying guide once here and I'll repeat it again.

Richfag? -> Buy iPhone, unless you have some reason for considering Android.
Poorfag? -> Buy Lumia.
Super poorfag - > Buy nokia dumbphone lar bodo. sweat.gif No money still want smartphone. doh.gif

Like I know someone who said iPhone screen too small. Complain eye strain just to read. Played with Note 2 at Samsung store and liked the big screen. Obvious choice there lar.

Its 2014 people ! Stop with the android vs ios fight.

Ive used low-mid end android, iphone and now nexus 5
Use your brain, if you buy rm600 android phone memanglah lag compared to ~2000 iphone .

My nexus 5 is super fast, no lag in between swithing apps and all. The camera delivers its job pretty decently.
Battery-wise , it can last all day from morning till i reach home at night with medium usage which is quite similar to the iphone ive used.

In the end, its all about personal preferences. You really have to try both devices and compare which suits your needs more. Stop being a fanboy and boast about what your device can do/what the others cant. Open up your mind.

Yeah you're right, that why I don't like people keep telling disadvantage of something vs other thing instead of comparing two things to see their advantages and disadvantages.

When you keep telling disadvantage only of something, that's consider an act of misleading/misguide.

If music bought from iTunes, it won't play on Android devices due to DRM protection. If music u rip yourself or download from ahem sites, no problem. Android can handle any movie format, be it MP3, AVI, MP4, M4A and on some devices, MKV.

iTunes can convert the songs bought to MP3.

I have a few songs I bought on iTunes on my Android.

Getting bored of iOS already.

My first iOS device was iPhone 3G, used it for two years then went with Blackberry for quite a long time. Then got myself the iPhone 5 when it first launched, but honestly I want something different.

Considering between Windows Phone or Android, but I am leaning more towards Android with Google Nexus 5.

So far the only complain I heard is about battery life.

Guys, what about Moto X?

I didn't really think about it before, because honestly I forgot about Motorola's existence.

Is it a good phone?

Haha just use android today and i felt so messed up. While iOS i don't need to think much . it feels like everyting perfect when on iOS. Well I change cus my fingers couldnt adapt with the small screen. Plus I can see that picture quality in iPhone 5 looks better (maybe cos of the small screen) than Samsung S4 which even using 13mgpxl camera.

Better stick at iOS for now. I has been used to Android for 4 years already. It have better features than iOS but stock modified UI like touchwiz makes the phone lags even on high-end devices. You need to debloat the ROM and apply some tweaks with custom kernel. That a lot of work before your phone truly lag-free..

any phone can run any video extension with the correct apps

to me, you should stick with iphone

Firstly, iphone is more expensive. so it must be expensive for a reason right?

Secondly, iphone users gets laid more often than android user.

Thirdly, iphone has the apple logo, which is an american brand and pride. android is a lame robot. and each cent of your RM500 paid for that logo on your phone must be worth something, right?
