[QUOTE=chrishind10;31793050]Because there are people who have a legitimate use, then they are the retards who for some reason talk out of their ass about the deficiencies of other operating systems and hardware, when they either do not exist, or are easily corrected by the user not being a complete moron.[/QUOTE] so it's bad for them to talk out of their asses about deficiencies yet it's okay for you to talk about stuff that's so obviously user preference. and are you actually saying that no hardware or software besides apple stuff has deficiencies? you're pretty much doing the same exact thing so you actually called yourself a dumb faggot, in which case i don't think you should be so mean to them and yourself. unless you actually are that deluded in which case i'd have to say you should move on and do something else.
[QUOTE=faze;31793091]Nobody is masturbating to the fact they hate Apple. Most people hate Apple for what you just said, their business practices are shitty, shady and pathetic, and their products are horrible and overpriced. They should be ashamed for how much they rip people off.[/QUOTE] Basicaly that, and the userbase. Ever wonder why people hate Furries? similar reasoning.

[QUOTE=chrishind10;31793122] Features =/= user preferece.[/QUOTE] except they are "preferece" people obviously don't want or need anything you mentioned or they'd get something else. contrary to how the world works in your brain, people who use apple shit aren't brainwashed and trying to convince anyone will only make you look even more childish.
[QUOTE=thisispain;31793207]people who use apple shit aren't brainwashed[/QUOTE] Wow, you could have fooled me.
[QUOTE=chrishind10;31793228]Wow, you could have fooled me.[/QUOTE] that's because you are very easily fooled.
You obviously havn't seen any of the fanatics around foaming at the mouth over Apple supriority when they have no knowledge of how and why things work in a computer, absolutely no background or experience in any meaningful way with software and hardware, yet they still continue to gush baseless and moronic claims. I've only seen 12 year olds bitching about how the Xbox 360 is superior to every other device that is capable of playing games get that bad before, if that helps put it into perspective.
And Thisispain shits on another thread.
[QUOTE=Billiam;31791070]Inspire represent yo. Fuck you Apple and your lack of Micro SD support.

I've seen plenty of dumb Android fanatics and they're pretty much just as dumb as Apple fanatics. Now can we actually talk about the topic at hand instead fighting over who makes a better toy?
Android circlejerk going on in this thread!

[QUOTE=gazzy_GUI;31793497]Wait, they don't have Micro SD support, what the fuck my shitty phone from 3 odd years ago has a micro sd slot.[/QUOTE] They don't have Micro SD card support because if they did, it'd make their market strategy of built in hardware, that they use to sell more expensive shit, null. That's why you see shit like "iPhone 16GB" or "iPhone 32GB" and shit. Because it's all built in and it allows them to charge much more. I used to have an HTC phone. The HTC Droid Eris. Now I have an Optimus T on T-Mobile and a Motorola Photon on Sprint. I would have gotten an HTC phone for Sprint but my dealer line only had the option of an HTC Evo 3D or the Photon. I don't want 3D. Sorry HTC.

Well deserved :v:
[QUOTE=gazzy_GUI;31793497]Wait, they don't have Micro SD support, what the fuck my shitty phone from 3 odd years ago has a micro sd slot.[/QUOTE] Micro SD slot is under the radio plastic cover with the SIM card, the phone completely needs one.
[QUOTE=Nathax;31794591]You're very defensive of Android. Maybe a little insecurity going on there?[/QUOTE] He may be being a little righteous, but he's absolutely right in saying that Apple products lack industry standard features in order to justify driving up their prices. It's not incorrect in saying that the only reason one would buy an Apple product is because of the aesthetics.
Welp, bad reading. Yes, the iPhone completely lacks a microSD slot. Pretty dumb but that's Apple for you.
[QUOTE=Billiam;31796007] It's not incorrect in saying that the only reason one would buy an Apple product is because of the aesthetics.[/QUOTE] yes it is
[QUOTE=Dppdy;31796045]yes it is[/QUOTE] Are you going to justify that?
[QUOTE=Billiam;31796007] It's not incorrect in saying that the only reason one would buy an Apple product is because of the aesthetics.[/QUOTE] uh that's not true i bought it because i liked the interface more while i didn't like the android's interface at all and all the other smart phones are shit to me. rounded edges aren't an aesthetic.

[QUOTE=Billiam;31796145]Oh c'mon, unless you want to argue semantics that's definitely aesthetics.[/QUOTE] no it's the fact that the interface in android was slow for me and it took me longer to do something than it would on the iphone. look, all this shit about SD cards, jailbreaking, OS controls, file system, i'm not gonna pretend that i'd use them because i wouldn't. the whole problem is everyone's utter arrogance on this forum. if you insult users of anything based on blatant ignorance (you can insult crackheads and nazi's) you're just being an asshole. this is how easy it is to be nice and respectful please say it out loud with me: I think that people who use Android do so because it fits their needs and thus informed their decision to do so. I think that people who use iPhones do so because it fits their needs and also informed their decision to do so. Both of these are worthy choices as a smartphone and I respect anyone who makes a decision based on their likes. repeat until you no longer have dick feelings.
[QUOTE=xxncxx;31793431]And Thisispain shits on another thread.[/QUOTE] wrong, another case where thisispain isn't the biggest retard on this forum.
maybe on some other days but i think i'm pretty not-retarded today. basically it depends on if it is happy hour at my local bars.
I dream of a day where people on the internet don't get boners from calling people names for using different products and crying about shit that doesn't matter when their personal preference isn't the same as everyone else.
HTC, I don't know much about you, but for this, you have my respect, very very much. Thank you.

And is there really any conclusive evidence pointing to a slower Android UI that's not on a personal basis? Between my Inspire and my dad's iPhone I don't see much difference in it's speed.
