Claire, 16 Oct 2012So wot was that all about the SG3 "among Android phone... moreThe remote wipe USSD code gets fixed with a Firmware update that Samsung has already applied so as long as you on the latest Android version the problem doesn't exist, and I browse a lot on my phone (As I am now) and like all Malware almost no one ever comes across it so the problem is massively overblown.
And I don't deny Android is open to attack but like always the more capabilities something has the more room there is for problems, and Airpush Ads are seriously annoying but can be easily blocked by installing an App from Google Play, and I do know for an absolute fact that most iPhone users do like the idea of Widgets and Airpush Ads are just an annoying price you have to pay to have them.

    Android is simply imploding with multiple unsolvable problems and WP8 is stepping in to replace the platform, (not instantly of course). Fragmentation makes app optimization almost impossible. Inefficient multitasking wasted battery life.

    Poor security results in FBI warning. 700% rise in malware over one quarter only. Very poor updating has resulted in majority on Gingerbread, with no signs of upgrading anytime soon.

    If you don't like iPhone, get Lumia. Android is on the way down.

I know someone who downloaded a game on their SG2 phone, and started to get adverts constantly coming through their phone, plus "download hot babes". Had to download Air Push to find out the cause and discovered wot it was. You wouldn't get this on the iPhone.

        Anonymous, 16 Oct 2012FBI issues warning that Android is a haven for malware. ... moreBecause of multitasking Android basically works the same way as Windows, Mac & Linux so all those extra layers of capabilities means there's more room for Malware and Viruses, where IOS can't multitask so only has that single layer and is easier to protect.
        And the reality is almost no one on Android ever has any problems with Malware and the only place you see it possibly happening is in lecture halls etc with people showing you that it's possible.
        I mean most people only get Apps from Google Play and it's almost impossible anyone will find any Malware from there, and the only reason you can get problems is Google allows people to sell Apps away from Google Play and you can install by just ticking a box in the settings, but Apple's restriction mean you have to get everything from the App Store and authorized by them which means a lot of restrictions.

          All you Apple haters, enjoy your Android device, enjoy the numerous crashes. I've tested 98% off all smartphones that hit the market place and sorry, the iPhone will always be the leader of the pack. It's not buggy, it's smooth and does exactly what it is supposed to do. Android is a great idea, however the lags and multiple crashing occurrences must be fixed. There is a reason why you have to spend a bit more to get an apple, however lemons are cheaper.

            Mostly Samsung fanboys here, that's why it has a low rating.

              iSJ5, 16 Oct 2012sorry to say asking for a radio on the iPhone is no differe... moreJust remember the word "Smartphone" when people describe iPhone.
              Because over the last decade or so they evolved to devices that can replace every handheld device and that has become the creedo of every smartphone manufacturer to give customers a phone that means there's no need to carry anything else because features don't compare to dedicated devices but they are good enough for everyday use.
              And like I said before Apple has become contradictory to every other Smartphone because features give way to the quest for profit.
              I mean until the 90s people would show off all their different devices and have full walls displaying displaying all their music and videos, but most people just don't do that anymore.

                        You see I like apple phones they are stirdy, strong and provide a user friendly interface. But they dont seem to compete with the Android phones out there.

                        For example: HTC, Samsung S3 + LG Optimus all using Quadcore, where as this phone is using a Dual Core processor. That is quite sad... considering people masturbate of Iphones. Talking about the hardware and software. Software is good but lacks the fact that you can't customize with widgets.

                        I like the shape of it and the plating of the phone. But seriously, there isn't much of a different since the 4s. Yeah A6 chip, better camera and a bigger screen. Also, you can't do as much as you can do on androids. Connecting to a PC to transfer music, you have to have itunes. Thats seriously annoying unless you find ways round it like I did. You have to do a lot to set it up as well.

                        If anything I would recommend an Android, this piece of technology is great but it's a CLEAR CUT RIPP OFF for price. Also it's not worth it for what you get. Considering statisically! adroids like the S3 are better.
                        Iphone: Dual core 1.2 GHz
                        Samsung S3: Qaud Core 1.5Ghz

                        Which ones better, be intelligent. Don't follow the hype.

                              iSJ5, 16 Oct 2012buy radioYou just have to accept Apple left out a radio because it would be free to use and they want to force people to buy internet radio Apps and use 3G, because the deal they have with networks means they buy iPhones at full price with no bulk discounts like every other manufacturer offers, and in return for paying full price Apple promise to remove features or make it so networks can charge for them.
                              So really this is a contradiction in terms compared to Android developers because they make a phone and have to give people every feature possible because once they sold the phone that's the end of their dealings with it and Google makes all the extra money.
                              But Apple sells phones and all the services so they remove features so they can sell as much as Humanly possible and that's the reason why they use better materials for phones because they can sometimes make hundreds or even thousands of extra Dollars after they sell the phone which no other manufacturer except BlackBerry does but hardly anyone bothers with them anymore.
