Using phone in public...

Does anyone attract attention while using their phone in public? I can't count the amount of people who were amazed at the phone. They usually say, " I thought only iphones can do that! "

then i guess i'm on the lucky side.
as everyone that has asked me they automatically recognizes it's a SGS2
they all say "wow! is that the S2?" or "How's reception on it?" or "which network are you using it on?"

Yeah, I had a couple of my friends with iPhones tell me the screen was really nice and clear. Its such a nice sized phone for me too.
There is enough hate in the world. Why can't we all get along here ...?

I always get asked, why is the screen so big lol

That's funny when women ask me why its so big they've never referred to the phone.

I think the majority of their games are better than ours. Android has come a long way but still has a long way to go too.

I was walking by a group of people in line for the iPhone4s and I hear some guys say "What is that?" one asked "hey bro can we see your phone?" They liked the huge screen, I told them about the 4g speeds, and they all go "ohh that's a Samsung." I then say "Yeah its a Galaxy S II, this phone is AMAZING." and proceed to get into a cab.

Everyone at my school already says that's a pretty big phone when they see my SR, I can't wait to hear the responses at how big my Note will be.
But of course, I usually get more replies about my penis size, but this is not the thread, nor the forum for that.

I actually laughed at some of their jokes. The Android one is not funny, but the fridge one is (in my opinion).

So yeah, who else has noticed this?

why does everyone care so much about the iphone?
its a great device. i personally will never use it, but quite a few people do love it.

America loves the iphone because it helps americas economy so they promote it alot they rather u buy that instead of a foreign phone

It's not the I care about it, it's they are shoving it down my throat when I log into my Verizon account online to manage my stuff, which doesn't have an iPhone associated with it.

You're going to email Verizon that they have marketing on their website? I bet they know.

You realize how much you just got played right? Not only did that little iphone button get you to stay on their website longer; it got you to take a screenshot of it and then go to a Nexus forum and post on there causing even more people to see their website. AND you are going to contact customer service at vzw in which case they will then try to sell you something after reading your pointless email.
Seems like VERY effective marketing strategy to me.

I have both Android and i devices. Personally I find the whole idea of arguing over a phone pretty retarded... like eating paint chips retarded. I heard an Apple engineer designed a thermostat called the nest, let's argue which thermostat is better, or should it have a larger screen? How about refrigerators? Let's argue about which one makes the best ice.

[Discussion]Apples New Claims

So, I don't know if anyone has read the new claims that crapple seems to be bringing to court but here is a link to the post.
http://phandroid.com/2012/11/06/app...01/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter
Although here is some what of a break down of the contents.
It seems as though Apple has gone some crazy insane on crack or something because now they want to add 17 devices because they're all compatible with a stylus in some way. Now how the hell is that possible? None of Apple's products use a stylus, that I'm aware of anyway. At least they don't ship with one. Also, they are going after the GNex now, because hmmmm....It's running Jelly Bean?! That doesn't make any damn sense what so ever. So I though I would just bring this up for some discussion because I don' have the slightest idea how they can do this?

I always read about apple trying find something ***** about android / Samsung software and products. It seems like they just want own the market, but that just it not everyone cares for them. I see how their product is their own. But lot of it seems picky

My mom for some reason got an iPhone 5, I told here it was a piece of worthless crap, and she didn't listen. Needless to say 2 weeks later she is taking it back I convinced her to get a Note 2!
But along the lines of the whole patent thing, they say there going after the GNex because it has Jelly Bean, BUT all other JB devices are fine!? Makes NO damn sense!

Ya I seen apple attack Samsung for a lot of things. Last couple of years, last time I read anything was that apple claim Samsung copy their design.. Silly power hungry company's

My wife just got an iphone 4s the other day, even she was amazed by how little control you have.
I've messed with them before and they are nice products, but you can't even remove apps from the home screens. I was so confused by this. She doesn't need a stock app. How do you get rid of the icon? You don't.

I have a small feeling they are attacking the GNex because it is ALWAYS updated. Google keeps the GNex on top of it. Apple probably views it as a threat because while we are here using the GNex for quite awhile (since we don't get bored with it), Apple has to release an entire new product to keep the users entertained.

They really should be unallowed to file stupid claims with almost zero basis just on poor sportsmanship alone. They're butt hurt from Android gaining the majority marketshare

Yea.... cause it's SUCH an overreaction to shut down the marketplace on a respected development website because disrespectful people were scamming those who were trying to buy/sell their gear.

As much as you probably hate to see me say it... i'm not crying about there being no marketplace, especially if it means people won't be scammed. It's more of a "scammers loss is our gain" kinda thing in my mind.

No, we, well some of us, are adults. I had many trades and all of them were fine. People didn't take the necessary precautions and got screwed. Am I sorry that happened? Yes, it sucks. I lost $120 on EBay. Should they shut it down? Closing the marketplace was a knee jerk reaction.
