Going from an i4 to this is a nice change, but I am wondering if there is a reason for most of the well known apps being sh*t ? :/ eg facebook and ebay...
Or am I the only one who thinks this? :/
Thanks

Try 'Pocket Auctions for EBay' - it's a nice little ebay app

Seriously? One or two apps (Btw I see no problem with the Facebook app) aren't as fancy and you're moving to a completely different platform? Seems a little fickle.

I agree the ebay app is worse than the one on iOS but the facebook for android is not that bad. It's a lot faster than the one on iOS(which is worse and worse every update)..
But a lot of apps are still much better on iOS than android. I wonder why it is not possible on android...
what problems are you having with the official ebay app? Or is it cosmetics? What doesnt it do for you?
Agree with op that eBay app is definately worse than the iOS version but its just one fking app, get over it
Facebook app on android is terrible esp compared to ios same for ebay. Id happily pay for both apps if they were even close to the ios version, they do the job end of day which is nice to still have these.

c'mon guys, we're right there
I realise the whole thing is kinda pointless... but what are the bets that Android/iPhone/every-other-OS users are voting WebOS?
but yeah would be pretty funky to see WP7 crowned King. My votes been counted anyway

Pretty high, they're jelly that their run-down boring OSes with only good apps to back them up didn't get anywhere.

Many people would argue that a mobile OS is only as good as the apps available to it. Accordingly, this "OS bowl" is rediculously flawed. The only way that WP7 winning would make any sense is if the primary criteria for voting was "most untapped potential"

Haha , the votes are only from the people who bought the phones. Sad.

That would totally explain the fact that android and iphone booth with definitively higher market shares got raped. I mean it wasnt even a close game for either. It's all about OS... WP7 is in my opinion the best OS apps aside, in a business user though I could see palm being the best. Android and iphone have all the app backing in the world but this isn't a "Who has the best developer support bowl." It's an OS bowl and the top two teams are there accordingly.
Not nearly as sad as your stalking and trolling - do you even have a WP7?
I think his initial excuse was "I'm considering getting one." Followed by a 3 page list going on about the few features that have yet to been included.
It'll probably be at least 5 years til we know the top three

Looks good even tho I will miss the orb and flag.
i know it's all metro, but i don't like it, i liked the orb most too
WP7's logo is better than this.
Umm.. kind of too simple. The previous one was way good compared to this!
very simple ...but how lod windows8 before release.

Do you think http://microsoft-news.com designed the logo?
I don't mind it, I like the simplicity
I think the new logo is not bad, but yes the old one was a classic!
Win8 logo
I think it's cool...it's metro-themed, and it's angle represents the new Windows 8 transitions when multitasking between different apps.

The old Logo looks better.
This looks old
I'm guilty of this as well, but maybe it's just not wanting change? Something as iconic or recognizable should be kept the same imo. Take Target for instance, a simple unmistakable logo. I understand updating and modernizing, but I don't have to like it, LOL.

if the angle and perspective doesn't look 'off' to you, look at a window. on a wall.
no wait, DONT. just enjoy the new logo and don't ruin it for yourself.
I am not fan of this blue color but read somewhere it can be changed. Apart from it, it goes well with Merto UI and finally its a Window and not a flag
Notice a strange trend?
Perhaps the "Play" name is an indication that the Market was sorely lacking in BDSM content?

LOL... That is kinda funny...
I just noticed the plumbers crack. A whole lot of whips + a butt shot, more disturbing by the minute.
The rise of whip apps is caused by the most recent episode of The Big Bang Theory, in which it's used a lot
Three words. Big Bang Theory.
The whip app was in the last episode and it was funny as hell. You guys should watch more TV. Have to admit I got a huge amount of laughs using the whip at work. Haha!

Lol. Looking at the OP it took me a minute, and a Google search, but I got ya. I was just about to add that its probably because of TBBT, but that's already been said. I'm not even going to lie, I searched for "whip" in the Play Store and downloaded a few of those apps myself. One didn't sound right and the other took forever to load and then when it did load you have to manually switch to the right whip. Sooo.. Did anybody find a good app with the right whip sound and doesn't take forever to load? lol

I've never loved a device so much. I think...I think i'm in love. From the gorgeous screen, to the amazing NFC...to the fact that google just randomly gave me 10$...to the ease of use of the toolkit in the dev section, the simplicity of rooting...the BUTTER smooth interface...its just...its just...ITS JUST TOO MUCH!
cool story bro.

did you have to add a prepaid card to get the $10 or just activating activating google wallet?
Yeah, I loved it when google gave me $10 free for google wallet. I got like 6 sodas from a paypass enabled vending machine after that lol.

i mean, i guess my point is...Out of all the android phones i've upgraded to, this one seems the farthest in terms of difference from one to the next. Its just so much better in so many little ways.

I'm coming from the Evo 3d. The S2 came out a little while after the 3d did so i was already stuck. I wasn't disappointed because i loved my 3vo. It was a great phone. Dual core and all. The screen on this new phone is just insane though. Watching 1080p movies and the way the colors just pop is unlike any mobile screen i've seen. I love the NFC too and how you can link nfc stickers to tasker profiles. i know you could do this with the s2 as well but its new to me. Theres just a bunch of little things ya know?
