          Denzo, 14 Nov 2011Hey Anonymous, Glad to respond to your comment. In regar... moreBlimey, the reality distortion field has you truly in its grip, my friend. Takr a moment to listen to yourself. The iphone is really nice, its a nice build quality, it looks simply scrummy! There's a word for people like you, with that attitude. Not smug, even though you may come across that way. I'm thinking of... superficial!

          So the sgs2 is made of cheap plastic. And? What was iphone 3 made of? Inano, and ipod? Are they nasty because they're plastic too? And what do 80% of proud owners do? Buy a nice, clunky, cheap plasticcase to hide the admitedly lovely design in! Yeah, really aesthetic, that. (So much for the vaunted slimness, wasted it its case)

          You into quality so much, why haven't you got a vertu or one of those other classy build phones? Too cheap for you?! Lol.

          The res on the sgs2 may not be retina display depth, (though the nexus prime hd will be pretty smart), but what crap was the 3gs display? My old xperia x1 had 315ppi (12 shy of retina, I believe), and that was 3yrs ago. Why didn't apple bless us with display like that earlier? Its not like fanbous wouldn't stump up for it. And what about the iphone 4 poor viewing angles? Pretty silent on that point, aren't you deluded one. And the superior super amoled+? Its too colourfull(in a whiny voice! Unbelievable response. Unbelievably pathetic, that is!)

          And also pretty quiet on the other superior aspects. Its speed, upgradable memory (apple are currently ripping their loyal customers off to twice the amount of commercial memory value. - an iphone 4gs 64gb upgrade is currently circa £240 on top of upgrade, while memory card is currently £140 reducing all the time. Real nice business practice their, apple

                  iPhone 4S is the best mobile ever !

                  You can not compare any iPhone with other smartphones !

                  iPhone 4S vs Galaxy S2 ???

                  LOL !


                  iPhone = Apple !

                  If you can not buy it or do not want it, do not do it!

                  If you can, DO IT !

                  It's the best thing I've ever buy !

                    Denzo, 14 Nov 2011Hey Anonymous, Glad to respond to your comment. In regar... morewowwww! so talkative. and mentioned about funny things about iphone, i have iphone 4s and SGS2. but i dont feel like what u said. do you have SGS2 to make a comparison to your iphone? you should know more before you start talking about it. i have both phone, but when im going to surf websites, i'll use SGS2..why??? because of its browsing speed!.. did you ever try this? if i want to snap a picture or video recording, i'll use SGS2, why??? because its image quality!.. wait! did you said iphone's camera more natural and SGS2 too much colour and too much vivid, more to fake and unnatural?? is this what you gonna say? then you dont buy HD LED tv, hi-end graphic card, or any super quality graphical display stuff because all these things generate fake display, unnatural. am i rite???

                    iphone more smooth than SGS2, yeah i admit that. Remember, i have both of em so i know the real fact.but you dont forget, android is super costumize mobile OS and SGS2 is build with great hardware. do you know that SGS2 with custom rom installed and customization done on it could result more better than iphone? do you know that dude?? this is something kinda irritating but it seems like make sense.." to use iphone - you need some extra money, to use SGS2 - you need BRAIN" . are you mad at me?? if yes, continue reading..dont cry, i'll give you cookies.

                    have you ever seen SGS2's costum lockscreens? im sure you never. its smooth and fast as iphone. i use my iphone 4s to send sms and making calls, because its a bit handy, but for those who with big hand im sure SGS2 will be comfortable in their palm, plus good casing attached will give better gripping. am i rite Mr.Denzo??

                    every phone have it own weakness, admit that dude. no perfect device on earth so far. it just a person itself who make their own fact. dont compare Rolls Royce ( iphone ) to Lamborghini ( SGS2 ). they both running different engine and speed. just be happy with your chosen. Adios.

                          Apps and games will always run better on iOS because of fewer devices for developers to work with and there is only PowerVR SGX graphic chips to work. Whereas on Android, there are just too many hardwares and GPUs for developers to optimize apps for.

                              Anonymous, 13 Nov 201195% of what you wrote in your novel are arbitrary opinions,... moreHey Anonymous, Glad to respond to your comment.

                              In regards to the "ugly, fugly etc" comment I made, that you say are arbitary opinions (95% is a number you chose to use) I believe they are completely justified. Just to reiterate for you, a snipet of what I wrote for those that cant find it:

                              "the RES on the the SGS2 makes the app icons look so ugly.. like they are stretched or something? The menu system is ugly. The way the screen unlocks on the SGS2 is ugly, its not consistently smooth and jitters and slips etc sometimes."

                              This is all very real, anonymous. On the SGS2 the screen is huge, and the res is ordinary at best. Im surprised the battery is not better considering how low the res is, cause Im sure you know, that the more pixels a card is pushing out, the more power it uses.

                              As for the menus, they look so mundane, a simple "times new roman" if you will. Its a half assed job on the menus and they, as my partner found, can be difficult to navgate (I had no problems, but my mum, sister and partner hate it).

                              As for the screen, when you slide it over to unlock, sometimes the screen slips which requires you to re unlock.. and when it does so it does these ugly jitter movements. This is just the way the galaxys are.


                              Further I said:

                              "The iPhone never does that {stuff described above} it is so smooth like silk baby. The SGS2 is thin.. thats great.. but the SGS2 feels like a little tablet. The iPhone feels sturdy - undeniably - compared to any droid. Only the HTCs have a nice build. ALL the APPS I use, such as facebook, ebay etc ARE SO MUCH NICER on the Apple. I dont know why, but they are, more features, more graphics, better looking and better running. "

                              This is also substantiated in real life. The APPS from the big guns, facebook, ebay, twitter, banks etc are ALWAYS nice on the Apple. Have a look at them side to side. Even angry birds just seems to run that little bit crisper on the apple. more analogue feel (rubber band) than the digital (nes).
                              Facebook App on Apple is complete and does nearly everythng and looks stunning, comapred to android it really does look, "ugly" (in comparison its ok in its own right).
                              Im a seller on ebay and the iPhone app is amazing, the android app is also ugly and not as useful either!

                              Rounding up, the feeling of sturdy and being sturdy sometimes arent the same thing. A crystal watch is not as study as a metal watch. Thats fine. But being proud of a shitty plastic case cause its sturdy? really? plastic is dirt cheap, and rubbish on the touch, obviously it doesnt really crack unless it has the crap kicked out of it. Thats fine. netiher do those Nokia work phones.. who cares. lets not get away from the facts, Glass and metal in a sleek small pakcage, dont lie to yourself now.. its the way it is.. it simply is a MUCH nicer design and build quality than the droids (from a consumer perspective, not an engineering point of view), and really thats what counts. The phone is fine for a normal drop so it is good enough for most people.

                              As for resale, no doubt the iPhone is a quality product that people pay for, and you can see that on the market. Android on other hand people wont pay nothing for them, cause that is the market who buys them.. (tight wads?/nerds?/) no offense intended but it was my geeky side that made me buy the SGS2 but it was my classy cool side that made me buy my Apple lol.

                              As for 4G speeds, We are only just getting them soon/now with telstra in Australia, but I can say I am using succesfully my iPhone 4S to play gears of War 3 on xbox live, no lag, and get about 5-7Mbps using the speed test.. just fine for my needs and never have any issues.. my GF swears its faster than the SGS2 by a long shot.

                              What I have written is first hand experience, and fact from my point after using the said products, they are not some random assumptions etc.. Do what you want with the info, but is unquestionably the truth from my eyes.

                              I will say, I made my mum and dad get a SGS2 under the
                              optus conract, dad even got a stand to charge, and we were all for them.. but after a couple of months, you realise what they are.. not as good as the iPhone in the real world. PS You want games? Play SFIV on iPhone.. to good also. Cant compare them.

You no longer do this due to the change in the batterys as if you charge it for longer than 6 or 7 hours the liquid in the battery overheats, causing a very hot phone and an even worse battery life than before. Good call!!!
