Anonymous, 07 Apr 2015i dont get what ppl want. i would raþer wait for a st... morelol that was good. we both have points then my friend lol. apple is shit and so is android i wont argue with you on that point. Then we need to try something and demand something new then. ive always liked the idea of free flow technology. something that flows if you see what saying not fades (the Xperia X1 days mixed with Nokia N900).
I buy phones that work. I miss things like facetime and imessage. i know i can use skype or one of many apps but i like facetime audio as all my friends have iphones. yeah im a isheep cos everyone else is and thats the point if we be honest. i can reach more of my friends on my iphone then i can on my android. You ask yourself and see what answer mate and then come to the point a phone is about friends lol.
Blackberry had the best platform without even knowing it cos they connected us all, even the poor. the problem with them is the phones they sold. buggy pieces of shit lol.
im ready for new this icon based crap is the past. i dont mind what my phone can do. i dont mind my note 4 can talk to my TV and be the remote, the music player, 2nd screen, media player, hotspot, camera, mini laptop or one of a million þings it can do. the problem a Iphone can do that too. and jail broken!jesus its like being in a candy store everyday.
Your missing out my friend i know you have a iphone 6 plus so yô need to jail break. they have this on there that make a iphone amazing.i used to be able to do everything a samsung can do and more. even down to plugging sd cards adapters into the phone and moving content back and fore. i had a amazing time with my iphone 5 til it got stolen. very good memories. With my note 4 more i miss what i used to do. i would never have sole my iphone. i miss it like a lost child lol. I dont think i'll miss my samsung. Just like i never missed my Gear VR. but i do miss Airplay. Ido miss my apple TV. i do miss my Ipad withall it flaws and all. I miss simple.
I have no Apple products anymore. I use a Lenovo miix 2 8 for leisure and business, A note 4 combined with a samsung smart tv that serves my media and some private affairs and a samsung gear live þat handles my lifestyle and social Very well if i do say so myself.
But i dream about Apple lol.
The thing apple i loved and hated may i add. its either your in or out. Once in you do things there way and you get used to that cos it is good. Since leaving Apple everything seems to have got messy. My phone does not do as my tablet does, neither does my laptop (which i sold due to having a desktop for storage and server purposes solely).
I miss the best features like being able to take calls on anyone of my devices without thinking.
You said getting update after update but at least i get those updates on the day they talk about them, not a year down the line lol (unless planned that way for marketing may i add).
samsung is a great company but with ahving thwy own OS i just cant back them. everyþing is just to flawed. the apps are not made for the phone and often look buggy is all im saying lol.

Max, 07 Apr 2015Apple fan boy, lie lie lie...Apple fan boy? I have had only Samsung devices because it has the most to offer from all manufacturers (that starting from Nexus S - yes it was a Samsung). Then S3, now Note 4, a Samsung Gear, the Gear VR, and Galaxy Alpha, which I consider the best built phone ever - for various reasons, which I do not start to list here ... I will not change to Apple, since I have the whole Android eco-system in use. I doubt Apple can do better, or Microsoft for that matter of fact; I was just complaining about the quality of 5.x.x Android in general, which does not have anything to do with Samsung this time (Samsung builds are even more stable than Nexus builds). On my S3, Samsung did the wrong update which rendered the Phone useless, just to be able to push the Samsung Gear also to the S3 users. But aside from that, with my Note 4 I was really happy, until the Lollipop update ...

For those of you GearVR owners like me; I have been informed the lollipop update works fine with your GearVR. Some say it seems to work faster and have less battery drain. I'm updating tonight when I get home!

Ok, I see, I just looked it up and it looks like Verizon customers are getting the update. It takes about 10 minutes to install the prepare patch. This is for the advanced calling features. Then the actual Lollipop install is next. This take approximately 18 to 20 additional minutes. Some users may find a battery life issue but not everyone. Other then that, initial reviews say it's fun to use esp. its new video phone feature added to your dial interface. It will only Video call to others who have the advanced calling patch installed.
Thanks, BLTFreedom
