Most guys here need to take a chill pill. Stop getting your panties in a twist people.
Its just an OS. Someone using an OS you don't like, isn't going to kill you, seriously. Trust me, I use both iOS and Android, my d*ck hasn't fallen or anything yet, its miraculous. Who would have thought lol.

AnonD-1825, 12 Jun 2011"How ever, trying to make me look stupid, and selling ... moreIt has nothing to do with IOS itself as an OS. It has everything to do with Apple itself as a whole, WP7 is missing more features than ios, i agree with you. And i dont really care that Mango will be awesom and fill all those holes in WP7. I hate Microsoft too, but i respect them!!! let me tell you why.
They are just like Apple when it comes to Monoplay, they are @ss-oles
but i respect them because they dont tie me down, they give the freedom to do whatever i want.
The biggest example is, Microsoft accepted people who implement and Customize WIndows 7/Vista/XP, and put it for download, they dont have a problem with it as long as it's not cracked!!
The same goes for WP7 , you can jailbreak it so to speak, but you will not lose your warranty!
They dont tell me im holding my phone wrong, or that every other phone also has these problems like apple B|tched about, and recently so did HTC, which is a shame too.
ANother example of how apple sucks and treat their DEVELOPERS like sh|t:
Greg a young student who developed (Wifi Sync). His app got rejected from App Store, and he was contacted by one of Apple Project Managers telling him how apple engineers were amazed by his work, but its not accepted cause it crosses the limits of IOS, no cable connecting to ITunes. He sold then 50,000 copies at cydia.
Now IOS 5 has (Wifi Sync) same name, same logo different color, and same FEATURES!!
Didn't that cross the boundaries which they told him why it's not Accepted?!!! Thats WHy i hate Apple, not IOS, Apple as a Whole, they slap their little developers, take their ideas and give them the finger and walk away thinking they are untouchable.
One thing which makes hate MICROSOFT MORE, is that when Apple was on the edge of collapsing down and bye bye, they bought stocks, supported them with money, and Made Microsoft Office Availabe on OSX, which helped them to stand up again.

Are u all serious guys? apple fanboys vs android fanboys? We're all just consumers at the end of the day. Just pick and buy the product that gives you more. In that regard, its android.

AnonD-4367, 11 Jun 2011Couldn't Agree more!!!
Though im an Android lover, i reall... more"How ever, trying to make me look stupid, and selling me a device and not allowing me to do whatever i want with it is not Acceptable.
I hope WP will also kick IOS's @ss all the way to the moon"
Are you serious? i mean i undesrstand you like android openess, but how you can hate iOS and stil cheer for WP7?
You know they both work with same style, both are not open, both have many limitations, both missing some very basic features, WP7 even more
It's so funny that people are hating iOS because it is what is, then you have suddenly WP7 which works just like iOS, but it's not bad thing anymore, right? :)
By the way, where WP7 copyed copy/paste? Still you cant even put your own song to ringtone, so when that happens i think we all are saying, its copying iOS, what about multitasking? they use same kind of multitasking in upcoming mango than what iOS used, can we again say it's copying iOS?
How it so important for you guys if different brands getting features what others/you have, how that affects to your life? Who cares? We customers are those people who can benefit that, now and future, it's best for us, if we get all the good stuffs for every potential phone.
This is so weird really, iHating is something out of this world.
I really dont care if WP7 is getting same kind of multitasking than iOS i think it's great, and i hoped that when i heard that WP7 is getting multitasking.
Why i need to jealous about WP7 getting multitasking or something else? If i'm going to buy WP7 device someday, of course i want it have all the goodies, and dont think oh no no it's getting features what others had since 90'S.
What's the point with this pointless iHating?

great, thanks for the review!
I'm not a big lover of all third party apps so very glad to see that Apple implemented some necessary updates to the iOS, like improved camera/pictures app and notifications.
I love my iPhone :)

Holy crap these comments have made my day. Every single one is funnier than the last! Crapdroid? Assle? Assdroid? Crapple? I'm literally laughing so hard it hurts! The internet is a really entertaining place.
Newsflash: If you have to make up some of the most hilariously retarded names like that to make a point, you're an enormous fanboy.
Seriously: All mobile operating systems these days are pretty damn good. Just use what you like and leave it at that.

Ok, time to settle this....before android fanboys say anything, apple did not copy androids notification system, before that, they BOUGHT a company to design the notification system. Ad there ain't no other way to do good notifications, so SHUT UP. People were complaining about the notification system in iOS 4, but now they are complaining about it now?!?!? Android are good, but what's with the malware and stuff it gets? I'm an iOS user, and it's very rare that iOS users give such an opinion. Secondly, let's see android copy iOS by using their idea by using a game center, cos iOS came up with that after windows 7. Yeah, even apple said it was to challenge WP7. third to last, what was android like before iPhone? NOTHING. they blatantly copied iOS with the touch screen, and most android touch screens are that responsive as iOS! Don't deny it, it's not!!!! Maybe WP7 is as good when it comes to touch screens, but not android. And this page is for iOS fans to comment on! Go away!

Look at all the haters on these comments. :)
People seem to think that a high end Android is the standard by which all mobile phones should compare to. Well here's the big news. It isn't.
No1 Hater Schwartz will be beavering away on his amateur blog as we type, looking at features that the iphone doesn't have, that are largely irrelevent. How sad.
After all these years, you don't learn. The "missing features" are not missing after all. They were intended to be left out. It's a different product, an ipod that can laughably outsell rival phones.

AnonD-2686, 11 Jun 2011Some of the ''New'' features on that IOS5 is already patent... moreIts because they're blind followers of that OS. That's it. They are die hard fans. They will do anything to defend their irreplaceable possessions.
Come on, be fair! Seriously, windows, android and symbian are better than this.

Though im an Android lover, i really wish for the best for WP7/8.
I bought HTC Sensation, which costs more than Iphone 4, money is not a problem to me.
How ever, trying to make me look stupid, and selling me a device and not allowing me to do whatever i want with it is not Acceptable.
I hope WP will also kick IOS's @ss all the way to the moon..
