iPhone or Galexy ?

Post by thewolfe »

Not sure this a topic for here so let me know. I'm looking for a new phone and will either get the IPhone 4 or the Galexy something or other.

Like the larger screen size on the Galexy but already own an iPod & iPad and they're hooked into iTunes and my outlook so my contacts and calendars sync. I like a local sync which I can do know.

What say you or what say you like get this off of our forum.

Battery life and standby time.. iPhone

And you will not need a manpurse to carry it around-iPhone

I seem to have a better workout dodging your stupidity than attempting to grasp the weight of your intelligence.

I have an iPhone. but the touch keyboard is a real pain in the ass to use. That and it sometimes misinterprets your inputs; does something you didn't want it to do. I've sworn at the thing more than once because of that.

I'm considering a Galaxy S4 next year (june) when my contract is up but I use a few apps on my iphone that aren't available on android yet. I may have to stick with apple for it. The novelty of playing games etc has long worn off so I use the phone for music, phone and some apps. It also controls my TV. :D

Overall, I'm ok with apple but if my apps get ported to android then I may switch.

Yeah, most likely. In fact, I'd rather have a basic phone, and an android/surface pro tablet. That's the thing with a phone that tries to do everything. It's not very good at some things you want it to be good for.

Yeah, that is pretty much the thing with smartphones: They can do a lot of things, the majority of which they do rather poorly. While a folding cellphone basically does just one thing really well.
