Perhaps there's such a thing as a badly assembled phone or something, god knows.
Maybe, i just had loads of problems with an S3 over two years and none with the three iphones i've had.

Or maybe Doombrain is just a dick with a superiority complex and hasn't got a fucking clue what he's talking about.
It's obvious a singular personal experience with a product can always be extrapolated to the entire range of instances of said product, right?
Nope, you just don't like me.

Doombrain has got it spot on. Android phones are great for that wow factor when you first buy it. Way more satisfying than any iPhone. Two weeks in though, when that wears off, you've got an Android phone, and you're wishing their was a way you could put IOS on it.

Typical clueless ignorant iPhone owners ^^^... My phone is working better than day one... Everyone who has the same age iPhone has an old battery that can't hold a charge half as long as it did new... Which was also shitty... :olo: ...

the S6 looks and feels lovely, but then android and it's many swipe screens and a thousands of menus that take you to the same place and swipe down/left/up/right to turn off bluetooth/gps/data/roaming etc etc etc

Had an iOS phone for 5 years now - Android tablet for 2 years.
Ordered the S6 - wireless charging pad too.

I will let you know how I get on :owned:

Outside of BC this is pretty much as scenic as it gets in Canada. I just got to work and it was 7C on the ride in, it'll be 13C around 2pm which is as hot as it'll get today. Yeah, that's kinda cold to some people but I don't mind it. It starts to bother me around 4C and I typically don't ride if it's under -4C. My normal body temperature at rest at home is 35.1C I've been told that's pretty low on the average temperature scale. I'm not sure if that's got something to do with it or not but I definitely am usually the last to feel cold.

You got that backwards, you're the one with a phone that's completely locked and stuck the way it is. Building apps for it is a pain the in ass and the proprietary bullshit is enough to put me off iphones completely. because of my job, I use a lot of tech and I hate to say it, iphones are for people who aren't tech savy and androids are. That's the problem with Android phones, people who can't figure them out can't use them properly.

Mines not locked at all. I've jailbroken every single handset I've owned. Takes two minutes and makes the phone awesome.

There's a huge myth about Android phones, and it's that they're some awesome open platform that you can do whatever you want on, but it's not true. I had to install Cyanagenmod or whatever it's called on my Xperia Z2 when I had it just to get the function to skip music tracks with the volume buttons.
