desktop computers are still consumer devices
[QUOTE=nigerianprince;42066747]That is still mobile phones though; the desktop PC market is still a huge behemoth. A lot of tasks also cannot be replaced by mobile devices.
I don't really care for their phones and shit though, they did make some rad keyboard/mice and gaming controllers back in the day.[/QUOTE]

Don't call me out if you can't prove your point other than using fanboyism slander.
[QUOTE=nigerianprince;42065343]Sorry, but being unable to export contacts from your phone in CSV/zip/email/whatever format at a moments notice is absolutely fucking ridiculous.
That makes the phone completely unusable for anyone who needs real access to their contacts.[/QUOTE]

Just so you know you're talking about a company [URL="http://lmgtfy.com/?q=failed+logic+board"]that pretty much invented a term for their shit breaking which is pretty much a marketing term[/URL]?
[QUOTE=The Baconator;42065187]The iPhone uses an IPS LCD, that's arguably the best screen possible with current technology. Yes even better than most OLED[/QUOTE]
IPS screens are awful for real monitors though. Sure you might get good color, but the technology is too new and you get fucking awful backlight leaking and TERRIBLE black levels.

I actually really loved that controller. It may have not been as pretty or light as others, but I liked it for being bulky.
Its a pity they don't release console controllers in different form factors nowadays /:

yo just a hint i don't like apple. i'm far from a fanboy, i'm just not a blithering idiot that wants to call out any company that i don't like for the smallest shit
take a look at any drop test versus a galaxy device. iphones pretty much always win.

Ask anyone with an iphone and they'll tell you the same thing. Except you. So if you go outside with your iphone instead of staying inside with your iphone in a pound of bubblewrap, you'll pretty likely have a cracked screen from dropping it a few inches off the ground.

uh yeah except if you tell apple there's something wrong with your device they'll hand you a new one for no charge
not something you really get with most oems. not to apple standards anyways
My expectations
A7 Processor, Either sup'd up A6 or moving the A series to quad core
Improved RAM
Improved Res
Additional storage capacity, Remove 16gb off the market and for that price you now get 32gb.
If they meet all 4 expectations, I'll for sure pick one up. If it's less then two of what I stated it's debatable that I'd move to a windows phone just so I can fully use Google Glass as with my iphone 5 now i don't have SMS or gps

It's almost as if I didn't say android's have issues too! Oh wait, I did. And that's mostly because a lot of people buy dirt cheap androids and you know there's over 1b of them out there now.

anything to say any other device with a touchscreen won't have a whole ton of cracked screens?
if you want a phone that's tough, buy a lumia. if you want great build quality overall and are willing to be susceptible to some drop damange, anything else. especially an iphone

Bullshit.
When I was a kid I went to the service store with my parents and they never replaced that beige beast of a CRT monitor. They quoted to fix it which would've cost similar to what it would for a new one.
Fuck the logic board bullshit excuse.
