        Every iPhone Apple has ever launched suffered from horrible battery life. There's no reason to suspect otherwise this time around.

          A similiar example can be Consoles vs PC

            Bluetooth is awesome and all, but there's latency. Is there a bluetooth headset that matches the latency of a cabled music? Trust me, there isn't (try playing a rhythm game with bluetooth headset, your accuracy will be horrible! Regardless of how excellent player you are)
            As for Arrangement and hiding, there are 9 apps that you cannot remove from an iPhone (Phone, Messages, Camera, Photos, FMI, Wallet, Safari, Health, and two more I can't remember) you claim you can delete bloatware, and I agree, most of the bloatware can be removed, but how about "HIDING" An app, it's still installed, but unaccessible
            And locating? I don't mean the locating in LTR form top to bottom, I mean true locating, if I want my app to be in the bottom, I want the grid to allow me! You cannot do that in an iPhone.
            I own an iPhone X, so you can't sell the bs "What are yoy talking about? You're not owning an iPhone!"

It's because of people like you that they are getting away with this. If you guys would stop buying any piece of shit they call "innovative" they would really start to innovate something

                        PeterThePanda, 20 Sep 2018Sure, standby times for iPhone is good, but many Android ph... moreAnd that has a lot to do with their low capacity batteries.
                        Which is on purpose. It saves them money by putting a smaller battery in. Plus they charge more for it which means greater profits. Plus a smaller battery means normal degrading has a larger and faster effect on it. Which then in turn means even greater profits off the sales of repairs and upgrades.

                          Kingslayer, 19 Sep 2018If simplicity means restrictions, limitations, and Apple c... moreI didn't even own a single iPhone! (I'm currently using a Huawei Y7 Prime 2017)
                          Just my real experience on most iPhone users though.

                          I don't know why most people are too obsessed on the name itself which also lacks on practical features.

                            Sure, standby times for iPhone is good, but many Android phones have already caught up with iPhones when it comes to standby times since like Android Nougat combined with some of the OEM Optimizations.

                            What matters is screen-on-time, and that's still the main Achilles heel for iPhones, even with their lower resolution screen compared to many Android phones with their midrange phones having at least a 1080p display. Of course, some Android phones are expected to have lower screen-on-times especially considering they have 1440p displays

                              Noticing a trend here with iPhone battery capacity announcements.
                              1. When they increase the battery capacity, they would explicitly state it during the Keynote with words like "bigger batteries" etc.
                              2. When they made the battery capacity smaller, they won't say that the battery capacity is smaller during the Keynote and use slightly deceptive words like "about the same battery life", "30 minutes more battery compared to" to disguise the fact.

                              Obviously, Apple users won't care as long they get a new iPhone.

                                Can you charge and listen without a dongle?
                                (Accounting for 7/8/x/Xs/Xr) Yes with bluetooth as this is 2018
                                Transfer songs without a software as a bridge? It is illegal to transfer songs! You can't distribute songs! That's why you need a software. Plus spotify, apple music etc.
                                Request a cable from another brand user to charge your phone? Everywhere you go in the west you can find a cable. In malls, in cafes, aiports, universities.
                                Arrange freely apps in a grid? Or alternately Hide them as you don't need the built in app?
                                If any of these's questions's answers is no, then it's not the best phone. You can uninstall pretty much all built in apps since iOS 11. Apple allows this straight out of the box.
                                (I am sure I forgot other examples though)

                                Best resale value, best support, and hardware wise pretty much at the top 3! Camera, display quality/accuracy, build quality, accessories everywhere, more optimised apps.

                                If you want to pirate things though, Android is your OS.

                                  Exynos equivalents of Snapdragons 810, 820 were even much more ahead in performance and power efficiency.

                                    hahahaa 3100mah with 6.5" screen, but fruitfans will defend as usual .. it's optimized .

                                      I've used a ton of platforms. More than the iPhones who've bought, I bet. You are basically having the luxury of owning and using an Apple phone but it never seems it's yours because they won't let you make it feel it's yours.

                                      Still no PiP, split-view, or ability to change icons. We Android users also don't care if you enjoy limited features from iOS that we have been enjoying for years.
