Hello Atrix users. Actually I cant't call myself an owner of an Atrix, but I saw this interesting test of germanys most importand recognized product testing foundation. They've tested and compared several smartphones and therefore, the Iphone is placed 1. marked with "2.0", which is like "B" in the US. But it has to share its 1. place with the Atrix. Moto's device was marked with "2.0" also. This is just the opinion of the news corespondent. I think, the Iphone has to share its 1. place with such a great device.
Im confused...what am I doin' here? I don't even own an Atrix.

On the official Website you have to pay to see test results. Here's a link to a german newspage with the report I was talkin about. I hope you do understand the language. If you don't, just post the needed part and I'll translate it analogously.

The Atrix is "as good" as the 4S? Pfft, it takes the cake in MANY ways... #1 NO ITUNES!!! That alone makes it 10x better than any Iphone or apple product. I'm sure I don't need to elaborate any more, we all know why we have Atrix's and not iFails...

If you let it translate by "translate.google.xxx" some parts of the report will not make sense because you can't translate german into english directly.

Word! But the thing which is hated by Android users is not the hardware. It must be admittet their hardware is...quite awesome. What we hate is (I just guess) their methods and their spamminglike lawsuits against samsung and htc. In your case, it's Itunes.
This statement doesn't mean I like Apple. Oh god, NO! I can't stand any kind of hardware on which I can see an apple. Last time I had an apple device in my hands it has ended in a brutal fight between the Iphone 3gs, my new desk and the sledgehammer of my uncle...it was the Iphone of my ex...she has cheated on me...she called me "psychotic", so I tried to make a call on her phone with a hammer, obviously it didn't work.

I thought it would be interesting to share that it seems like the iPhone 4 suffers also from a far from perfect camera, in this video it appears to have a nasty blue hue in the center of the video.
This isn't intended as an iPhone 4 bashing thread, so please don't waffle on about how you hate the iPhone, it was just an interesting observation I thought I'd share.
There's also a problem with the antenna in the new iPhone.
Let's face it: there is just no perfect phone! ;-)
I am sure that there are plenty of forums for iPhone users to discuss the faults of their phone - so I think that is where this thread should be.
I will show no schadenfreude at the iPhone's problems. As much as I don't like the total control of Apple, they did revolutionise the mobile phone interface.
ugh! Pee stains. I guess someone left a surprise from foxconn. =P

This is just brilliant, Steve Jobs, I salute you!
I've been hearing about the problems with the signal for the last couple of days.
It would appear that Apple are not satisfied with just telling Developers what and how to develope apps for their phone but now they feel the need to tell the end customer how to use the phone as well lol.
A more appropriate name for the iPhone 4 would have been 'iCommunist 4' lol.
On a side note, if the drop in signal is caused by the users hand conductivity, I would suggest just coating the effected area of the phone in a clear lacquer and this should resolve the issue.

Omg, that is simply amazing! Steve even tells you how to hold the phone correctly, "Just avoid holding it in that way." ROFL!
What gets me is how review after review continue to rave how great the new iphone is without a whisker of a thought as to the negatives.
Its time that reviewers got of their high horse and thoroughly reviewed the iphone worts and all.
But wait....its steve jobs baby so any negative would see a defamation case against reviewer...
Not to bash iphone or anything but did you guys hear the crap with that photons thing on the camera technology in new iphone..
The apple fans would have been salivating big time with that hoopla from jobs...
but wait.....
Jobs now wants iphone 4 users to hold their gem in a unique aficionado way...what next?
Simplest solution of mine: DO NOT OWN IT, SO WON'T TOUCH IT AT ALL.
Now, HTC, when will you guys release the GSM version of the Evo 4G, quick!

Got an officemate who was showing off his "upgraded" 3GS with multitasking. Just told them I already had that about 10 yrs ago with my Orang Tanager Windows Mobile. He wasn't even sure if he could close the running apps or just hide it.
My gf walked past the Apple store in Milton Keynes yesterday.
They had barriers outside to cope with 70-80 people.
There was 1 person in the queue!
The shop was open and had only about 10 people inside (including staff) but like an unpopular nightclub, they were forcing people to wait outside in a failed attempt to look like they were busy

The next phase of your andriod addition is to completely omit any mention of Apple or iOS as if they didn't even exist.
Yes you have a problem. It does not matter what phone/OS you use. None of them are better then any other one. They all have good points and bad points. If you find yourself hating one, the problem is that you are inflexible and closed minded.
If that is ALL you talk about, then yes you've got a problem.
There are other things out there: beer, sports, the opposite sex, penguins, etc.

Oh goodness... I can only imagine the riot that statement's gonna cause.
I'm open minded to why simple, trendy, non-techie people like iOS. And I feel no hate towards them for it. But for me iOS can't hold a candle to Android. It's all about freedom. Freedom to customize and make the phone your own. Every iphone looks and functions the same, within the safe walls of that garden, unfortunately.

well that's obviously because AT&T has crap coverage in rural areas. Same can be said about iPhone more likely to live in the city. Verizon is better at least, but around here if you live in the sticks you are best going with US Cellular who obviously doesn't carry the iPhone, but they have a few Android devices.

Well, if 2 out of 1000 iPhoners have Yahoo mail and 3 out of 1000 Androiders, then that would be "50% more likely," even though essentially nobody on either side actually has it.
It's probably true, I would bet, because most of the iPhone people I know don't even realize that AOL isn't the only email provider on the internet.

Actually, it says that iphone users are "more likely to say they lead," which I tend to believe. Studies have shown that "popular kids" and those who think they are trend-setters tend to be the biggest followers (copying what they see on TV, movies, ads, etc.). iPhone users believe they are leaders and trend-setters because they're doing what they see other popular people do, but clearly there's a difference between saying you're a leader and actually being one.

Yeah, I was going to come here and say that might also mean android users are just more likely to have multiple email addresses.
Edit: And now that I've continued reading, I see that is not case. I'm skeptical. Though we are more likely to be gmail users, so, maybe we don't need the other crap.
I had to come comment on the "122% more likely to want a pretty looking, but worthless, device" that's the iPhone demo to a T
(not that the iPhone is worthless, but they definitely have that attitude.)
That is the dumbest **** I ever read. Apple propaganda. Sad thing is it will actually work on someone.
I suppose the take home message here is that android has come full circle. We here on XDA aren't your average android user anymore. The average android user is someone that went to best buy and figured "if I'm going to pay ____, I may as well get a smartphone."
In other words, this is really a testament to the extent that android has done away with the concept of "dumbphones," more than it is a statement about user differences.
This may as well be iPhone users vs the public.

Well, I don't think "propaganda" is fair. I don't think anyone is trying to pull one over on anyone, or make a point.
It's just important to keep in mind that this is a self selecting survey, with no verification. Perhaps iPhone users exaggerated, or weren't quite honest with themselves, as someone already hinted at. To me a large number of the answers iPhone look like they're trying too hard to look special/deep. "Look at me! My fav ice cream is salted caramel, my fav food is tapas, my fav fruit is the clementine!"
Edit: not to mention a lot of the points are "iPhone users are more likely to spend money, regardless of the return" Well, no kidding. Maybe way more iPhone users use gogoinflight because android users, correctly, IMO, think paying $13 to have internet access for 3 hours is absurd. So, you can take a lot of these data points either way.

The fruit-to-effort ratio is too low.

i take it youve never peeled one then, because the peel comes off of them way easier than an orange, and they have no pith. pound wise, they are cheaper too if you buy in a 10 lb bag.

I've gone android before, but it was the HTC Vivid. Then I switched back to the 4S.

don't be afraid hold your head high and hold the bad boy to your ear, show the world you have real taste in phones and are not part of some apple fan boy flock who will buy anything because it has a i at the start of its name....
Congratulations on your new purchase, and welcome back to Android, we've been expecting you.
Did you not at least go to the store and try one out first, just to make sure it would be the right fit for you and was not too big?
I am sure you will love it. And you have nothing to be afraid of when using the Note in public to make calls, just own it, like a boss.

It is kind of sad because for some it will probably take focus away from how awesome this phone actually is. And it's also kind of mind blowing that they don't spend the resources needed to make the presentation perfect. There must be some management issues.
Yes it could be better... a lot more.
