It is interesting but it should maybe be moved to android general/offtopic. The mods often dont like people talking about the unnamed fruit as it just causes flame wars

Apple are charging an extra 100 bucks to have a stupid mainstream Apple on the back of the device. Why would i by an iPhone 4 when i could spend my money and buy an Android device with a quadcore and still have Money left to go out and get pi ssed for the month.
Android all the way. And every iPhone user just has it because of the supposed status of the device. Well I say screw that ill keep my android devices any day of the week over a stupid iPhone that only has 12 months of support
Again a fail apple. You are by law required to provide 24 months of support in the EU so no thanks

Apple really doesn't realize that a lot of Android users will not switch to Apple, even if the iPhone is the last smartphone on earth. I'd happily go back to a basic flip phone even if someone offered to pay me to take an iPhone
(I didn't say I'd refuse the offer - I'd use the money to buy a phone that I wouldn't hate myself for using, and the iPhone would be an ugly coaster/doorstop/replacement clay pigeon...)

I don't see why companys have to play dirty like this--it won't gain them much marketshare in reality. SGS II is just a better phone than iPhone, and Apple needs to understand that people will be upset if they're the ones responsible for it being removed from the market. Just my $.02

I hope Tim Cook and his lawyer cronies get a shoe to the face in public. Even though the Epic 4G is several generations old it's still better and has more features such as 4G, >3.5", AMOLED, micro SD card slot, removable battery, slide out keyboard, etc. than the latest iPhone 4S. Only the iPhone5 will be catching up to it.

This is exactly what apple wants you to do.
well, seeing that litigation doesnt happen without leeches and leeches dont litigate without money, this should go on for another decade or so considering the 1.5 billion settlement.
These actions from apple are what are known as cunning, and cunning is nothing more than the attempt to take down anyone around you while you are collapsing.
These are funny:

The thing is - at no point in the ad does it mention Apple, or iPhones or anything.
We all know who they're talking about because the stereotype... isn't really a stereotype.
So, the question is - unless you're proud about sitting in line for days, waiting for features the rest of us already have, having to deal with new connectors and so on... why complain?

Yeah, the big scandal. The iphone 4 antenna problems were solved in the 4S. I would generally be in the list of new icrap releases, but seriously I got tired of waiting on Apple to come up with something innovative. The only reason I continued using an iphone is because I spent hard earned money on many many apps and there is data I had concerns that would not be transferable: contacts, password list, repairs history on my motorcycle and vehicle, etc. But enough is enough, I'll be trying to get an Samsung Note 2 next month, and there will lots of manual input.
Maybe thats one of the reasons so many people keep buying iStuff. That doesn't justify people camping out outside a store tho....

It's hard to innovate when all you do is buy and patent other people's inventions. It's gotten to the point of ridiculousness now.
I love this video, I used to work at AT&T and would get calls all the time about when the iPhone was going to get MMS. The first time i got that call i went through troubleshooting because I refused to believe a phone that expensive didn't have MMS.
All of the sudden i felt a lot better about my Candy Bar symbian phone.

That poll result is extremely expected since I've only seen such hype preceding a phone when Apple was about to release the original Iphone. Apple was in a much better position though as nothing comparable existed at that time ....
Lets just say everyone was wayyyyyy too optimistic about the current speed of progress
Ppl were too gullable regarding the pre release leaks.. If there had been no leaks, I'm sure more ppl would've been satisfied and at worst indifferent towards the new s5

And I said that you can't base anything on these polls. You got those who genuinely don't like the S5, you have fanboys (HTC, Sony), you have trolls ect... If you wanna base anything on something concrete wait till you see how many units the device sell. These polls are meaningless.
