    Kay, 26 May 2013As an app developer, if you consider ios and android, Apple... moreYou obviously just regurgitated that from others making up the same crap. Have you ever even developed an app?
    And apparently you are skipping over the fact that Icrap 4s had the most crashed apps of all systems. Crashing while creating android apps is normal? IOS doesnt do it? Which cereal box did you pull that out of?
    It challenges your creative abilities unlike Android? What drugs do you take??? That is developer dependent no OS dependent. If you like the challenge and embrace it then it will happen. If you're lazy it wont. IOS or Android.
    LOL!!! Multi tasking better on IOS? Has it finally improved and gotten somewhere due to much more powerful chips? Sure...But it also has taken it's tole on older devices.
    IOS is system wide lock down made to create the illusion of perfection. Its not supreme coding. Android is not some thrown together slab. It is also well coded, but not locked down and it's negatives are not on the hush hush. Its like a full computing, customizable computer system while IOS is more like an advanced app launcher. There is a magnificent difference.
    Do you trolls know anything factual in the least?

      lol, 27 May 2013So Who copied pinch zoom? Who copied scrolling? Who cop... moreYou think Crapple invented those things? What planet are you from?
      And where did they get the idea for app market...from the ALREADY EXISTING app store section of mobile markets.
      And who stole the name iphone, ipad, misused retina, used falsified evidence in multiple cases, stole from swiss, is trying to patent the way their tables line up in stores, lost other cases, had to pay samsung, had to post on their uk site twice that Samsung did not copy the ipad?? I wonder who.
      Learn before typing.

        lol, 27 May 2013So Who copied pinch zoom? Who copied scrolling? Who cop... moreHmm, its more to Samsung than Google...

        And its still on process in case you dont know.
        Its not even finished yet.

        And Apple have a stealing history, the worst history.
        Stealing many other works and patent it,claiming theirs.

        And in case you dont know also, may of Apple patent is invalidated due to prior art (again, stealing).

        Also even Steve Jobs was shamelessly declaring: "Good Artists Borrow, Great Artists Steal".
        And that's declaring that STEALING other works IS OKAY.

        So who's the shameless one now?

          Who copied touch focus?
          Who copied app store?
          and...

            Crescendo, 27 May 2013Yeah, apple can multitask better... in your dream!! Have... morebro...clearly you don't know what an OS is. I am not favouring any OS. I use all sorts of OS' for work and I know way more about OS than watching movies like you do.
            It looks like all you do on OS is watch movies LOL and maybe Android is good for that.
            Clearly my comment does was not for you. I was commenting about app development and it was for my fellow developers.
            Take it easy and have some cold water and read my comment again.
            Currently I am working on Android apps and I was talking from my experience which you have no idea of because you are just another Android biast fanatic.

              Have you ever browse while watching movie?

              Apple need to stop become a patent troll and learn how to make their OS better, like Android!!

              And before you post stupid comment like this and make you look even more stupid, learn about android MORE and COMPARE IT to your puny iOS!

                Now what? Stealing MetroUI, patent it, and sue Microsoft for FLAT UI DESIGN???
                And blatantly copying Android's Notification Center and claim its their own?
                And also shamelessly copying Android's widget on home screen, gonna patent it also and sue everybody?

                Who's the copycat now? SHAME ON YOU APPLE!!

                          flat, less glossy, black and white UI..
                          sounds like HOLO UI on android >=4 right???

                          it's a shame android eclair, froyo trying to mimic iOS looks, then when android got it's own different yet good looking UI, iOS trying to mimic HOLO UI.

                          see holo ui here.

                              Anonymous, 26 May 2013Yep - Iphone can do all that quite easily I'm doing it now.... moremy bad - I misread movie for music. (maybe I should think before typing).

                              However. Why on earth would you want to watch a movie whilst surfing the internet on an S3??

                              I also have an S3 & TBH the tiny screen on the pop up play is too small to watch movies on but large enough to interfere with surfing & if you use split screen then you're getting 1/2 sized movie screen & 1/2 sized internet screen - both options are quite pointless on a tiny 4.8" screened smartphone & the experience ruins the pleasure of both activities.

                              & also - if a film is so good that I want to watch it on a smartphone, I don't want to not pause it whilst surfing if I suddenly want to look something up otherwise I'll miss what happened in the film & have to rewind anyway..

                                    In iOS apps which have point to do multitasking does multitasking. Not only few apps, thousands app can do multitasking.
