Nokia just adds all these features which for many are irrelevant.

            bananapa, 17 Feb 2011if thats the only argument youve got for the iphone then i ... moreWhy you laugh? because you dont have any use those kind of apps? that was only one example what you can find from appstore, everyone find their "own" apps/games what they think it's useful. You talked about fart apps and just wanted to say something about that, that's all.

            I'm not talking about if iPhone4 is best device, i dont really care :D It works for me perfectly, if someone hates it then hate, so what?

            "and last but not least - the "phenomenal" ecosystem for apps and their developers"

              How can people moan the iPhone 4 being the best phone? The iPhone has been the best mobile phone device since 2007, the iPhone 4 is the best handset about right now. Why? Where do I start.....1) The iPhone 4 has one of the best display screens about. 2) The iPhone has the best UI about. 3) The iPhone is the smoothest phone you can use. If you dont believe me, try it out yourself. 4) The best Apps support. 5) The best looking phone. Im sure there are plenty of other reasons but I wont go into them.

              People who are making destructive comments have NEVER owned an iPhone, have NEVER used an iPhone, so have no idea what they are talking about.

                Samsung shoud had won the award! Because it got dotted bluish pattern on the back of its Galaxy i9000.

                  if HTC made a phone of the same quality as the iphone and google upped the quality of android i would consider it as my second handset

                  but thats a big if because as you said htc and many other manufacturers release many of the same handset because they cant afford to put all their eggs into one basket

                  which means in the end of the day if you want the best built product and most stable software the iphone is currently the way 4ward

                  i would love to see another product from htc that really makes me think about wanting to get rid of my iphone because that will be the day when the technology has improved so much that i would sacrifice reliability over features (damn you android ppl with free tethering lol)

                  symbiam as far as im concermed is an OS from the past i mean how many ppl still use win95 and still really class themselves as high end PC users? im glat nokia are going to win7 good move from them and good for microsoft hope we get some more amazing products from both of them

                          Yeah the thing is these companys have like 100s of phones and apple has 2/3 to focus on so its easier for them to do so

                            haha argument for the iphone

                            hmmmm

                            had all iphones prob only had 5 freezes/crashes between them all

                            also had android hmmm well in that one phone i had hundreds of crashes/freezes and eventually total failure

                            iphone is easy to many

                            i can hold my iphone 4 in any way i like and dont loose signal (maybe i have better network :) )

                            its amazing quality (nothing against the cheaper feeling samsung phones)

                            the apps are much better (just dont be cheap yes android have many more that are free but would you rather have a android by alcatel or one by htc)

                            my phone only get replaced once a year rather than every other manufacturers monthly replacements

                            one flaw though is that if i want tethering i have to pay extra for it but meh thats y i have a dongle :)

                              I have an iphone 4 and yes the build is amazing but for me thats where it stops i dont get the fuss i really don't why do people keep raving about it. I would like to ask if HTC built a phone as the same quality as an iphone would you buy it? they are phone makers on mass so that cant afford to build the same way Apple does there skill is to get phones into as many hands as possible. that why they keep pumping different varations of the same phone.

                              Symbian is dead it was never really alive although i do really like the build of the N8 and they do rock with cameras but the software coughs logs. I am very interested to see what they will do with WP7

                                      How can they say that Apple iPhone 4 was the best device? I thought it would be Samsung smartphones, or even Nokia N8, but why iPhone 4? Is it because of leading App store with lots of applications? Is it the in-built features? I think, Nokia N8 is deserving one to be the best device. Best device for me is having all in one features, even not all features are favorable to others. Do you think iPhone 4 is worthy of making the best device?
