I am not againt iphone after and all i have iphone 6s, but confess that android flagship are deffinetly better. U can also uninstall blotware more or less or atleast can disable it, but iphone not a chance. Apple should listen to their customer.

Linas, 01 Jun 2016Great? that doesn't mean much if you don't compare them wit... moreshe doesnt need to compare the camera with other phones. when she says the camera is great, its because she is more than happy with the quality of photos.
you could be happy with your car and say its great because it does things effortlessly, but if you compared it to a car like a lamborghini then it will pale in comparison but doesnt change the fact that its still a great car for your needs.
also, gsmarena has already compared the 6s camera with the s7 camera. their verdict was that both cameras are great, both are 12mp, and both take great photos. the s7 came out on top because it took better low light photos than the iphone 6s. apart from that, the cameras were not too different.
i do understand people show alot of dislike for iphones and people just go overboard saying its complete rubbish and its hardware is several years behind. but, as proven by gsmarena, iphone always blitzes past most benchmark tests at number 1 beating all other flagship phones of this year. it dont matter about larger numbers and how much ram because iphones and androids use different operating systems and android does require more ram to function smoothly.
but i also know im wasting my time here because most iphone haters are just ignorant to the true power of iphones and will keep bashing it regardless if its good or bad.

When you look outside of apple products you will see like 30-50%... S7 edge was the first phone which was not worth upgrade from S6 edge, but still was great upgrade from S5..and even looking to "dry" percents you would see difference far greater than 5%..

sa11oum, 01 Jun 2016Who says the iphone 7 won't introduce waterproofness, a big... moreWell you see s6 to s7 was incremental update for Samsung, yet they still changed a lot (maybe not much in the understanding of Android community, yet HTC did even less). 6s to 7 is the major release for apple and they didn't do ANYTHING... That is not comparable, especially knowing apple is already year behind. When they released iphone 6 the market was completely different, they did well against SGS5 and even thought mising functionality had more premium design. SGS6 was a game changer. Not only it had better functionality, but finally better design as well. Apple kind of ignored that with 6s "aka incremental" update and already get a hit, but fans were still loyal at the time... thinking "oh that was just incremental model, hence it is expected they will catch up with 7"... no they saying 7 will be incremental as well and they are not in the game catching up.. their game is called "money mining"... It was always obvious for me, but I guess now it is becoming obvious even to the hardest apple fans.

They went under while still on Symbian, WP deal happened to "help" Nokia, but by the time they made it Nokia had already lost 90% of their market share. That was bad for both Nokia and Windows. "Nokia" will make the Android phones now? We need to understand what "Nokia" is... yes there will be some android phones with "Nokia" logo on it, because somebody brought rights to their dead brand, but the actual mobile division of Nokia is under 6 foot of gravel for long time. Now Nokia going to be like those Polaroid phones (once great company), which have nothing to do with the brand they use.

Apple was always form following function, this decision will be the final nail in Apple's coffin. Time to sell all my Apple stock.

Newsflash, this trend has been going on for years now, people don't upgrade like they used to, reason Apple stock has taken a hit and will continue to do so, there is NO reason to upgrade every year, even every two years, the price performance difference makes no sense for the majority of the population, now the geeks will get a new phone every six month and burn their money for a 5% performance gain, just to say hey look at me I have the latest , whereas the last iteration did the same job.

Since the creative genius of Apple that was Steve Jobs has gone the company has struggled to fill the void. This is just more proof that the tank is indeed running dry. Without Steve Jobs at the helm, the history of Apple is repeating itself.

All these things are in the rumor mills. I think it's biased to think that Android OEMs are innovating while Apple aren't. It's OBVIOUS that the new iterations will be better (s7 vs s6) but the improvements aren't that much. I think the differences between 6s and 7 will be similar to the ones in S6 and S7.
