[deleted post]I am a Sales Manager and in my workplace all of the field team use mobile devices extensively.
When it is contract renewal time, one workmate goes for the iPhone every time and his reasoning is "because it is an iPhone". Did you even consider or even look at any other device we ask? "Nah, iPhone is better" is the standard response. He then spends the next two years moaning about what he can't do on his beloved iPhone.
What's a mobile file explorer he asked the other day. File system...what's that.
He can't even send me one only email with multiple and seperate Word, Excel, PFD, jpeg, GPS link, mP3, vCard etc attachments and gets frustrated. All has to be done on seperate emails.
If you want to be an iSheep...shut up and get on with, and stop the moaning because it is BORING.

I think there are a lot of people who are buying the iPhone because they prefer the smaller size. And Apple do that well.

I would just like to start by saying a phone is a phone i have spent many years being a andriod fan i have had samsung devices and htc devices i recently went from my samsung s4 to a htc one i enjoyed the htc but decided it wasnt for me so i went back to my samsung when i went back to it i found myself bored with it there is nothing special about the s4 yes it has all the air gestures in it but unless u want to look like a retard waving your hand around in the air u dont use them i have now taking the leap and gone to apple and im glad to say i love it i love the size i love how easy they r to use to me it comes down to personal choice i personally got sick of basically caring a tablet around in my pocket and im sorry but if samsung and htc r all out saying bigger is better then why the hell did they bring out the s4 mini and htc one mini they r the same size as the iphone 5 so im soory but apple fans and andriod fans r as bad as each other they bitch and whinge about everything oh and to clarify the reason i went to apple is because my Samsung S4 was crap kept freezing and shutting off on me so how about samsung and htc make a device that doesnt die on u after a month of using it i have had my iphone for almost a month and it hasnt skipped a beat

why is bigger screen is better?
with bigger screen, thus bigger device
with bigger device, thus bigger battery
with bigger battery, thus more power
with more power, thus better hardware.

here's what i think:
1. the only reason apple is stuck with 4" is because android makers have little interest in 4"... so it seems 4" is the only possible way for apple to develop.
2. WHO'S THE MANUFACTURER OF IPHONE'S SCREEN? SHARP AND LG. where both of them are android manufacturers. "so let's give them the screen which size we dont really use for androids."

I am not sure if the entire article is valid. But there is one absolute fact: With a considerable same price level, android has a quite higher level of hardware.
*Hardware-wise = iphones are overpriced (compared to most android phones with the same level of hardware)

the title is very obvious, can you compare the lcd of both phones if the other manufacturer is using the same technology from their Television sets?.. (i.e. Sony is using bravia technology to their smartphones)btw, nice to see alot of comments from those fanatics of their smartphones. VERY LAME and HILARIUOS... ROFLMAO..

IOS 7 really is not the best OS. Ive had iPhones for 3 years now and recently made the Android switch to a HTC one. There is a massive difference which iPhone users don't realise until they actually switch. Iphones are great smartphones, there is no denying that. But they really do control your phone. You can't customise anything except the background wallpaper and lock screen. You're stuck with the keyboard, look, app look, everything. If you're happy with that, great. But if you want personalisation and be free on what you do with your phone, Android is the phone os you want. I downloaded iOS 7 on my 4s and found it just basic when comparing to my HTC one. If you've never used Android you'll think its "wow". If you've used Android you'll just laugh and say "is that it".

iPhone 5S is tiny, useless and with short battery life. For me, 5" is bare minimum while closer to 6" is more optimal. Also, A7 was rushed and flawed with blue screen of death. Since Apple didn't want to listen to their customers and offer a larger iPhone I ended up getting the Note 3 which is much more practical and useful.
