I have gone to the darkside

Yes, after trying to resist, I caved and bought an iPad 2.
I simply needed it for a couple of essentials. Full iCal support and a couple of apps to use with pro-tools at work. One being V-control the other air display.
But I am keeping my vibrant.
I must say, that I find iOS definitely lacking in various areas.
Most notably no widgets. I prefer the Android app draw and personal window customization, and I really don't like the iPad contacts app.

Hey, I have an iPod, but I'm not ashamed. I like it for the battery life. I will always love my phone more though.

No need to feel ashamed. They're great devices. I find that Android and iOS really go hand in hand and compliment each other very well.

They are good retail units, but little to no customization really. That and after costs............ too bad you couldn't wait until EE transformer by asus that is the one........ good price point and best of all worlds

Ipad 2 is the only device i would be willing to buy from Apple.

Yeah, iPod and iPad are the only products worth buying from Apple.

No shame in buying apple. They make damn good products.

I bought one to. Does anyone kno how to jailbreak the ipad 2? Does apple have a xda like community/forum?

No jailbreak for the iPad 2 4.3.1, yet...not sure what they did to secure it beyond the iPhone 4, but they did. Only a matter of time before we get our homebrew on.

iphone-developers.com is xda's sister site for apple stuff.

There's nothing wrong with owning Apple products, i have 3 iPods (diff. Gens) and a iPad 2
No shame in it, they make good stuff just not the BEST stuff.

Apple is good for a couple things. Secure info, speed and memory when using large apps. Other than that they are money hungry fools who can't share their developement to make them better

I got their new ipod nano for as a gift and i like it a lot. but then again I have always liked their ipod line. I probably wouldn't get any other apple product unless it was reallyyyy cheap or free. I really wished a PC manufacturer could design a laptop using the aluminum unibody that the macbook pro uses cause its stunning.

YESSSSS
if there's one thing i'm jealous about Macbooks are their designs, god they shine so bright in the sun whereas im with my black HP laptop.. it doesnt shine

Actually, you were in the dark side the whole time. There aren't any white, pretty-looking things in Android.

Galaxy S II is thicker than the Iphone 4

iPhone 4 World's Thinnest Phone, Not Samsung Galaxy S II, well according to this arcticle.
http://www.pcworld.com/article/240075/iphone_4_worlds_thinnest_phone_not_samsung_galaxy_s_ii.html

If you read the article, it's due to the bulge at the bottom, at its slimmest and on average the sgs2 is slimmer
Sent from my GT-I9100 using xda premium

That still makes the SGS thinner. In a pocket, the SGS is harder to feel, and it has a better grip because of the bulge.

The people that wrote that are iCrap fans.

As far as I know in the past average thickness was always the standard otherwise every phone produced in the past according to apple was false advertising.
Sent from my GT-I9100

and why is this relevant to us?

Inside the bulge looks like empty space to me

The bulge is for the speaker and some of the antennae, as far as i know.

I used to think that Iphone users where thicker than SGS users .
That is no longer true .
jje

My guess is next month there will be no debate on who's really the thinness.

Decided to test out how strong the Gorilla Glass on the Epic is.

You'd be surprised at how strong this phone is. Survived keys and knives. Really took some strength to make the crack you see.

I put an itty-bitty scratch with my tooth. lmao

I was at a party and my phone hit the support of a bed deadcenter of the screen, and it cracked at the point where the light sensor is. I want to cry whenever I'm not in low light which is often lol.

Drop it.....drop it.....bad dog! LOL

Plastic != glass. Did the glass remain intact? I ask because, you know, that's what this thread is about, as evidenced by the title.

Yeah I have a iphone 4S. Waiting for the jailbreak before switching phones cause I want the tethering.

Strong for awhile
I dropped the phone repeatedly for a year(im a clutz). Then i decided to talk with my phone between my shoulder and ear while walking down the steps... i think you can guess where this goes. The whole thing is shattered. Still works though

Yea I like the 4S it's awesome and all, but idk it's to similar to the 4 for I can't wait for iPhone 5 to drop....I must say that iOS 5 is looking pretty awesome, and from what I've demoed it is awesome....you like your 4S?

I love it. I've been using the tethering on my Epic to download apps. I played Infinity Blade on it and omg that game is amazing. Siri is very useful. It's exactly what I wanted in a speech to text system. I had the original iphone (my first smart phone besides the helio ocean) which was horrible. I dislike the lack of customization and using itunes. The screen is much better than the Epic but you can see how overly Saturated stuff is. Everything works well. I am not an apple fan boy by any means. I'm studying Java to develop for Android. It's good to see what the competition is like. The apps really attract me on the iphone. I don't really want an ipad though because it sounds like a feminine cleaning product and because I'd feel like a douche carrying one around with me everywhere.

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...)

Honestly, I would rather not own a cellphone if owning one meant supporting a corporation as corrupt as apple is... :thumbdown:

Wouldn't all currently sold models remain in the U.S. ? Also the original Epic 4g is not on that list.

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:
