Yup we all needed to have "that" thread to make incompetent people sush
My friend keeps nagging me about her iphone 4s and that useless siri. Post pictures or short videos to show that we are superior! I just want to win for argument's sake
Make this thread fun and amusing as possible
Ask her how much an extended battery is for her phone....or maybe ask her to show u her sd card slot. No? How about 4.52in of amoled+ goodness?

See the thing is, iphone users arent even that "technical" and her arguement would be like "so what, mine does more and still better"...lol
Screw Siri,
ask her what she does when her battery craps out? Or when she wants more ROM? Android is so far superior than that iCrap. We are not proprietary like iCrap!
Video, Video, we don't need no stinkin Video's......

ive always tried going technical and stuff but they just never understand! lmfao
Widgets... end of debate...
Swyped with my broken thumb
Ask what happens when your friend is trying to use siri in a room where so many people are talking loudly?
Not having to use iTunes was worth switching to android on its own.
I'm not going to lie to you...from a technology standpoint, Siri is pretty excellent. I do hope Google catches up in regard to setting reminders, calendar events and non-email notes via Voice.
On the other hand, who wants to pay an exorbitant cost on a dated framework, unreliable service and 100% liability device? Anybody...anybody...Bueller?
Didn't think so.
Plus the screen is just so gosh darn teeny. Feh..

All I see is an app drawer when I look at an iphone. I always said there's more to a phone than just apps. Yes widgets, extended batteries, expandable memory, hacking, launchers, keyboards, fonts, themes, live wallpapers, huge screen, not having to use iTunes, endless customizing. Only Borg type people are iphone users. Plus your supporting shady business practice.
The biggest turn off is the tiny screen. Ive also told people I couldnt deal with such a small screen.
Why do we have to argue/debate with people over this? My brother and his gf both have iPhone 4S's, I don't give a ****, that's their choice. I don't get the constant competing with users of cell phone OS's.
I usually don't but once in a while you'll get that smug ifan android basher that has no clue what their talking about. OP just wants a few talking points to shut them up.
Best ones:
IPhone is a smartphone for dumb people.
Tiny screen is unacceptable.
Slave to apples dictatorship on how your phone will look and operate.
Supporting a company that competes through litigation instead of innovation in a free market.
Overpriced handsets with sub par specs and quality. $750 for the 4s? Seriously? My ET4g has 48 gigs of memory.
Apple products are made with Samsung parts and at the same time trying to sue them and ban their products.

How about about some 100MPH tape over her smug mouth so you don't have to hear it? There is no talking reason with those lemmings who follow the pied piper. The music is all they hear. Agree to disagree.

I'm very relaxed, I just tend to ignore people that are immature enough to attack me over my choice in a cell phone. Just was merely trying to show that its a silly waste of time to debate people over this, when in the end their gonna make their own choices.... which is what I personally love the most about Android, choice.

I've used both platforms extensively and there are definitely strengths and weaknesses to them both. The arguments back and forth can be pretty funny especially on forums like Engadget. The statement that iPhone users are dumb though is one argument that I find ridiculous. Out of all my friends i am definitely the most tech literate. I flash roms, theme my phones, even write some applications. A lot of the people I know that use iPhones are doctors and lawyers, but don't have that much interest or the time for technology so simple is good. To think you are smarter than someone because you can switch out your launcher or overclock your phone is pretty stupid to begin with. Most of this is just effort. You are probably kidding, so not directed at you... this just always comes up in these "discussiond" especially when folks starting getting personal. Cheers.

GOOD ONE!
I'm sick of Apple attacking our Android vendors with ridiculous law suits over patents that should never have been allowed in the first place. Data tapping? What's next, patenting fire? Most of their so called "innovations" have been around long before their patenting. They were never patented because they were meant to be real innovations, for vendors, developers, and end users alike to share, use freely and improve the user experience.
Let's do our part in trying to save our beloved vendors from Apple.
All you need to do is sign this petition started by Austin Michael here: http://www.change.org/petitions/apple-inc-stop-filing-lawsuits-and-trying-to-cut-off-competition?utm_campaign=petition_page&utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=share_petition or call Apple at 1 (800) 275-2273 and tell them how you feel about this, ask them to stop, or even question why.
Please, don't insult, harass, or even give any representative any attitude. This should be done peacefully, and respectfully. Remember that just because they work for Apple, doesn't make them any less of a person. They are humans like you and me doing their jobs.
Leave what any representative has told you in the comments. Tell me what you think and how you think we should go about this. Twitter? Google+? You may repost this topic anywhere you would like.

Just filed a Better Business Bureau complaint against Apple Inc. that Apple employee Tim Cook stopped me from purchasing a Galaxy Nexus device. Completely true, but I'm curious if anyone in the BBB chain will catch it or if some poor complaints rep in Cupertino is going to have to deal with it.

nah, but I'll smile a little imagining the look on someone's face when they make the connection.
What about coordinating a "mass call-in" to Apple's customer service lines for an entire day or go into Apple stores and just ask a bunch of redundant questions, preventing actual customers from getting service.
I have an idea, go to every store that carries Apple products and buy one of their devices, open the packaging, and then immediately return it.
I just think we need to disrupt their business as much as we possibly can. I feel we have sat around long enough. And while we're at it, we should go to our state capitols and complain about government as well. You know, since we're going to be out and about anyways.
Hey everyone. I'm an avid android user and have a galaxy nexus myself. I also work for apple support and I can confirm that calling this number will not do anything. You'll get people who dont even know what you're talking about when you mention these court cases

LG trolls Samsung
Made me laugh. Glad someone is doing to Samsung what they are doing to Apple.
Lmfao, this made me laugh!
Now that's some good marketing :good:
omg le epic troll! lolol xD
In all seriousness, that's awesome. Other than a commercial that aired shortly after launch, I don't think I've seen any advertising for the LG OG. I wonder why they're just now starting?
Thanks, yes it is all over the web....
So it appears apple is at it again. Among the products on Apple’s ***t list, the Note II is also part of this next battle. Which apparently will take place in the spring of next year.
http://www.androidcentral.com/apple-looks-add-samsung-galaxy-s4-patent-infringement-suit
It would be nice if this company (speaking of apple), would just support open development, open source ideology rather than try to slam somebody like a spoiled little brat on a playground somewhere simply because they are doing something better than them.
Hey apple, step up your game and stop selling ****ty products, and you won’t need to sue other companies in order to get your profits back from them.
What a joke.
All those who agree, say “I”
I am boycotting all things Apple. Nothing Apple will be allowed in my house. iPods, earphones, everything. If it was made by Apple or even breathed on by Apple, it is going in the trash, and replaced by something better.

WOW .. It took you long enough to catch up with the real world.. giggles.. Apple has a place in technology. They give android developers and manufacturers something to look down on..And the 3rd rate companies motivation to get better.Apple stuff is well made and thought out to be user friendly. The only issue is that the uses who find it friendly do not really know whats its like to have control over what they really want.
If you have never had cake you do not want cake that much because you do not know what your missing..

Thing is. The note 2 had been out already for so long. By the time the case is heard and deliberated well be on note 4. So let them waste money on trying to kill a by then 2 year old device. A little late Apple don't you think. Stupid fruits.

The thing with Apple is the iphone is as advanced as they want it. They make tons off of itunes. Right now, there R&D department is hard at work trying to think of a way they can change the iphone without giving people more control. Even adding an sd slot would give people a way to buy music anywhere and put it on there phone without itunes. So it is there law department in charge of slowing down every one else progress.

It is an extremely cynical move by two massive megacorp companies (both with troubled ethical histories) betting LOTS of money on people being brainless stupid herdable sheep. Instead of calling me cynical, you should feel a bit affronted at Google....because both these corps are saying very blatantly that they think we consumers are brainless programmable robots who will jump when asked.
Google and Nestle can claim no money was traded hands all they want...but there was quid pro quo, you can bet your entire lifetime earnings and savings there was.
I don't like eating chocolates now a days but Kit Kat is very relatable and very marketable.

Agree and disagree:
I disagree with you about the sheep analogy. We are not all sheep choosing flocks to follow. Sheep are herd animals and humans are pack animals (at least this used to be true). The iSheep represent the ever growing part of humanity that has made the transformation into herd animals. I, and many of us here, refuse to be transformed by media/advertizing/image consultants into a bleating wooly douchebag. The analogy for those like me would be that of the wolf; a pack animal who, whether alone or with his pack, will divide the herd and eventually bite and eat one of them.
I agree that it doesn't matter what branding Android 4.4 has...I've always referred to version anyway

Lol yea if apple went out of business I probably would smile. But I doubt it. Unless all android phone make you feel like your apart of a society than its not happening. The only manufacturer that makes you feel as though your part of a society like apple is Samsung. Which is why I like their phones. People see Iphone. And think upper class, sophistication, and belonging. Which gives them a sense of belonging to a group of elite. I mean who dont want to walk around feeling like their worth a million bucks with year old tech smh. We look at Samsung and see innovation, future, and a sense of belonging to a group of intellectual individuals even though on xda some people make me wonder with questions like whats rooting or a kernel, But they have a profile lol. Since Samsung set a stepping stone on what sales and devices should look like htc, lg and everyone else is really stepping it up. So apple may be in trouble in the future but as of right now. There to many zombies for them to sell to.... my bad for the essay

I personally don't want to see Apple go out of business. I like competition. I think it actually benefits us consumers.
Personally, I don't think Samsung is the bee's knees or anything, but they do make a few products I enjoy, such as the Galaxy Note series smartphone. My enjoy derives nothing from Apple's products. I like they're Android, are rootable with fair ease, have SD card slots, pullable batteries, and actually make the phablet one of the flagship phones, instead of an after though like many other companies.
I'm not an Apple fan. I don't know about the company now with CEO Cook, but under Jobs reign, they were able to make things people found useful and wanted. I don't think they really came up with many ideas that were original, but found the right delivery of it. Plus, since Apple tries to just make everything work, that's that many less people who's electronics I ultimately end up fixing; it gets irritating always fixing other people's crap because they don't have a clue.

Yea the competition is fun. I use to be an apple fan but I've always been more of a fan of customizations. When android came out I was torn because I mean you could customize a iphone 3g and 3gs at the time when jail broken. But android had launchers icons. Colors, mp3 ringtone makers. Rooting, and constantly adding more features. I actually waited for apples response. Now so many years later. Their finally responding with a more customizable ui its to late. Im done with them. Plus I saw people happy as **** that they could swipe their Iphone cross registers and pay for gas all with nfc enabled I laughed. Only because my S3 was doing that while the Iphone 4 was still on 3g like its 3g/s predecessor. Lol or my e4gt was rocking 4g wimax. It's kinda crazy though because in the tortoise and hare race. Apple the tortoise was winning the race with out dated tech smh. Apple is a cult lol
