I just got the iPhone 5!
Which iPhone do you guys have?
Happy to say I don't have an iPhone.
Meh. Apple just makes new phones, and the ones who, buy them. Pretty much their logic<---
Also, I don't have an iPhone.
4Gs
Everyone hates on the iPhones/Apple in General, are they really that terrible? xD All I've ever had are iPhones just because they're easy to use, what's the fabtabulousness of Android phones?
Yes. I feel like they make mediocre products and feed off of people that have zero understanding of technology. That's not even the reason why I hate them. I hate them because they're a corporate bully that tries suing other companies left and right for infringing on their "innovation" (IE rounded corners)Quote:

The iPhone is very appealing, especially optical. Though, if you do not work in the bank industry or else, where an expensive mobile has become a necessity I would not recommend it to someone at all.
If you are rather the photograph, I'd recommend the Xperia Z1 with 20.7 MP and integrated optical image stabilizer. With 2.2 GHz Processor, 2GB Ram and a beyond superior resolution of 441 ppi at a price of $50 less than the 5s. (Gf? Maybe)
The upcoming Note 3 is top notch as well, with 2.3 Ghz. 3GB Ram and 3200mAh battery it's the perfect phoblet. The only disadvantage is the large 5.7'', which won't fit in every pocket.
The LG G2 is a nice one as well it's extremely powerful and design-wise way ahead. The perfect Gamer-Phone imo.
Anyway, I was never really a fan of Apple products, but I don't put them down. Though, Sheriff I recommend to sell the 5s and buy a better phone. (The 700-900 $ was no good investment - trust me.)
... yep
Galaxy S4
They are not terrible, they just are way too overpriced. Plus iOS lacks lots of basic features from other operating systems.Quote:

These phones have pretty decent cameras, 41 megapixels. Too bad their operating systems are complete garbage (Symbian and WP).
Mega pixels don't tell the full story. In fact, larger pixels in smaller quantity will actually capture more light and provide a crisper image. How do you think htc gets away with a 4mp camera on their flagship phone? Sure they call them ultra pixels but that's just so mainstream non tech savvy users can understand that it's much more than the typical mega pixel. Why do you think camera manufacturers haven't made a 100mp camera yet? But, I will say that the Nokia Lumia 1020 does sport a rather superb camera although image processing is painfully slow in such a way that it completely detracts from the experience.Quote:

Lmao!Quote:

Samsung also added the Samsung Gear. Which is a nice addition. I got to play with the Note 3 before it's release (I know people) and let me tell you, it's one insanely good phone.Quote:

Too many people think megapixels are the deciding factor on a camera. If you walk into a Best Buy, half of the camera displays don't even list their aperture, image sensor, the glass they use, etc.Quote:

Windows Phones get a lot of crap for their lower end specs, but they don't need a crazy processor for their operating system. Same way Apple gets away with lower end specs on their devices. Difference is, Windows Phone for devices like their 1020 have a really stellar feature to make it a flagship (IE the camera), while Apple puts in a feature or two that is pointless and unnecessary, this time it was the fingerprint scammer...oops, scanner, and 64-bit (with 1 gig of RAM? Really?)
Although you could argue the camera on the 1020 is pointless as well. Camera phones will never surpass a good DSLR.
No Iphone, Same Thing Everytime And Also IOS 7 Is Ripped Off Android
Fingerprint scammer.
Lol good one.
Is it copyright? I might use it.
I'm not picky with technology. I'm happy with whatever I have.
I don't really care too, I play on IPad and a samsung galaxy 5.Quote:

^Ultimate brag right - how old you were when you got your first phone.
Before all that was Nintendo DS my only life.
Hate seeing little 10-year-olds on their iPhones. Seriously. What does a little kid do with an iPhone? Who could they possibly call or text?
As much as I like technology nowadays, there are some things that make me question this generation.
And yes, I have an iPhone. It does what I need, that's good enough for me.

Sent using spray paint on the city walls.
I've got friends who got their phones back at 12 :/
@zao: yeah...I'm seeing 10 year olds..and even 8 year olds having s2s and IPhones :/
Actually..I don't think I'll really need a phone, because at the moment, I probably only want it to access the internet/play games like PL anywhere :P
I hate spoiled little brats around today, my brother is 8 and has an iPhone. It may be an iPhone 3GS, yet it's an iPhone. :P I got my first phone at age 8, and it was a Go Phone because I always had baseball practice and my mom couldn't stay, so I used my phone for emergencies and calling her. Kids nowadays... ._.
iphone 3gs
You can't really blame the kids, entirely. We are surrounded by technology - perhaps there's an aspect to it that kids need early uses of technology so they're better prepared: parents want this?Quote:

I know, haters gonna hate, but come on guys, let's please keep the discussion civil? Thanks!
I completely disagree that kids having smart phones shows bad parenting. I bought my nephew his first phone when he was 6. I live in another state and my niece and nephews are my world. I wanted him to be able to talk to me whenever he wanted.
I few years later I got my nephew an iPhone.
Every time we upgrade our equipment we pass the old ones to the kids. The phone helped his spelling with texting his family members. Making calls improved his communication and made him more social. There are plenty of books, math apps and additional educational apps. Now that he is older he also uses his iphone to help his little brother study (who also has an iPhone)
I spent an hour at a minimum with my 6 year niece the other night on FaceTime while she was doing her home work. She was learning new words, reading definitions and then reading stories those words were incorporated in to me.
For the ppl hating on kids for having phones. It sounds as though you are more jealous you didn't have one at that age rather than focusing in the good they bring.
This^,Quote:

It's not that I'm hating on the kids, and you don't know if I'm jealous, which I wasn't, because I was actually playing outside and I used something called pen and paper to learn and write ._. It's also great that your younger family members are using the smart phones for good purposes, but my brother doesn't do that. He plays a bit of Pocket Legends, Angry Birds, Cut the Rope, games like that. How educational :P He never really used for calling except to ask our mom if he could watch a movie when I was xD I guess I didn't specify myself enough .-.Quote:

My parents were extremely against anything of the sorts until my grandparents got me a Wii for Christmas one year.Quote:

That's why I said *sometimes*, Angel. I know plenty of friends' parents that have good intentions about giving their kids an Iphone. I was simply debating against the phase "Pfft, kids these days..." because it isn't always the kid's fault.Quote:

Lol, grandparents love to spoil their grandkids. Seriously tho, I grew up in a country where owning a smartphone is a luxury. I can buy my own, now that I'm working. I'm about to become a parent myself, I don't want to spoil my kids in giving them every shiny things in life, I don't want them to grow up expecting things to be handed to them in a silver platter.Quote:
