I use Tablet Z for movies while the iPhone 5s for gaming because of the better GPU and the richer game catalog, I use it for listening to music as well. Tablet Z is ideal for web browsing too, the screen is gorgeous and the text is super crisp, movies look amazing too. So the iPhone 5S is no crap, get your facts before you talk

If I hadn't gotten the Note 3 the LG G2 would be a serious contender especially when it's priced

I love gsmarena but these comparison reviews are getting annoying. Yes they make good comparisons, but every time they sum it up with a cheesy "each phone has its own strengths and its up to you" lame ending. I'd like to see them actually say which one is better. Obviously the G2 is the best cause it has the latest chipset on android. Apple is lame as we all know and windows just sucks.

AnonD-188322, 10 Oct 2013When are reviewers going to stop using App Catalogue amount... moreI totally agree with you to a degree :p dig the clear display and cam. And maybe if more manufacturers butt yeah. Super nice phones and sheer quantity produce alot of diamonds in the ruff. Whole office mobility with some phones having built in projectors and other awesome displaying options. Multiple file viewer and editor. Multiple audio and video codec support. Android rox. Plus im sure android has something similar but iphone in the car built in. Plus ive seen multiple hundred dollars apps for like dentists and mdz and iPad monitor/os and register set ups for businesses. So yeah.

When are reviewers going to stop using App Catalogue amount as a positive. Just because I have a sock drawer full of socks does not mean they are quality. Amount does not equal positive. More than half the apps out there for IOS and Android are rubbish novelty apps that after a few weeks are deleted from your device. Next you will be saying that Samsung are the best mobile phone maker due to their catalogue size. Its quality, not quantity.

That was like my second post on this site. I used to have iPhone and it lagged too. Wp wouldnt mind having that big camera one but oh well. And my wifi is fine. Never rooted either. Just saying for the money android is better. I bought a pair of jordans for one fifty and they were just ok not counting the fact that the little heel plastic actually cut right above my heel. Waste of money. Bought a few pair of fly kicks from ross. Had a few i devices and i still do. Just saying. All the cool kids are like omg iPhone or Samsung. I know some people pay full price and some dont for their phone. Some people have expensive plans with shitty service. I just think android has more to offer right now. Im using an optimus g and i think its better looking then what the others have to offer. New ashas look cool. My screen and typing is fast and responsive and if i cant do something on chrome i copy paste to firefox. I dont use pc or consoles that much so i just customize my phone. Would love to have a 1080p phone but oh well. Also my phone is filled with media so bigger mem would be nice. Its really not a phone any more with the price tag. I try to use every function. Some ppl say why need more mem. My opinion is i wanna see how crisp Aladdin looks and that's like five gigs, let alone video capture and hd comics, im a huge nerd, big surprise there. Just saying iphone is way overpriced, whats up with four inches and poor codec, scuffy material, crap talking plastic and now over pricing it. Would rather have 808 or z30

all 3 ecosystems have their +s and -s but I don't get this fanboysm praising, at the end of the day, guess what, it's still a PHONE that does pretty much the same thing that could be done 10 years ago(in different ways and better of course) no matter how it's called now, smartphone, phablet, phabtop:)...here's what android 4.3 won't give you...a life...

Imo android is the best platform. Everybody has a preference and that's mine. To me the main things that matter are - screen bezel, size, tech, ratio and ppi. Premium build quality and function is a must. Water resistance is a plus aswell as fashion. Battery and memory expansion is not a deal breaker! (obviously not for iPhone users). Ir is cool, innovation is a must, like g2, oppo and moto x or curve tech. Needs pretty decent cpu and gpu, i would say as good as nexus 4 or 5. You dont need to root but thats cool too. Just side load what you want that you cant get from the store - which is A lot. Make your phone look and operate like a wp or iPhone if you really wanted to with a much better screen. If you dont like the launcher your phone comes with then change it. Customize pretty much every aspect of your device as if it were a pc: different fonts of various colors and size, customizable themes and wallpapers
and icons. App drawer and folders and gestures on screen and above. Widgets. Any type of media if yours cant do it out of the box, video, audio, image, pdf, power point. anything. Chrome and firefox with add ons. Custom superior email, telephone and text. There is so much more rant but im starting to feel like an ignorant spammy hater fan boy. Bottom line is android delivers in what you paid for with phone quality and better service. Better web experience. Way more intuitive and innovative. Plz bring up something that cant be done on android 4.3

AnonD-78963, 10 Oct 2013I am Nokia die hard fan , and Nokia did good job but Micros... moreThere are only iPhone 5S, 5C, 5, 4S, 4 in Apple so bringing out updates and modifying games and apps for just a bunch of devices with not so much difference in screen sizes, is just easy as compared to other brands.
For Nokia. There is Lumia 520, 525, 620, 625. 720, 820, 920, 925, 1020. There are many differences in screen sizes, internals so its a bit hard as compared to updates to roll out updates for both apps and games and OS in a short time period.
On a side note, MS is very slow as compared to Nokia. It is not catching Nokia's pace.
