I switched from the Moto X to the iPhone 6S just over a month ago.
Shave off your neckbeards and ask me anything about the switch and the change from Android 5 to iOS 9.3.

How are you liking it? I picked myself up an iPod thinking it would be a good MP3 player, but having to fuck with iTunes on my desktop has turned me off from it almost entirely. It's just too much of a hassle to get music onto the thing.

In the meantime, though, there's so much cool stuff available on the app store that I feel like my purchase was justified.
>>
>>53018183
I gotta say it's nothing like I've ever used. I genuinely enjoy it, it's incredibly fast, and I have Apple Music so I do not need to dick around with iTunes past a certain point.

Off-topic, but this 1970 bug shocks the hell out of me. How is this such a major issue? How did no one at Apple fix or find this before? Does this happen to Android devices?
>>
>>53018277
It's because of Epoch Time

It's because no one is going to go back to 1/1/1970 for any goddamn reason

Then you shouldn't be able to set it as the date.
The user shouldn't be able to brick the phone with something so simple.

There is no defending Apple for it.
>>
What is your desktop OS?
>>
As someone who has a rooted moto g3 for personal use and an iPhone 6 for work use, I definitely prefer the iPhone hardware (iPhone is also 3x the cost tho). However, software for Android is miles ahead of iOS shitfest. Being able to customize everything perfectly with Android + Xposed installer is simply unbeatable. I would never use an iOS device outside of a work setting

You obviously never used the main feature of the phone, natural language processor, if you did you would have already returned your walled garden realizing the mistake you've made by abandoning the future of mobile currently available only on the moto x.

In your opinion: Which one has a better more straightforward and streamlined user experience?

Which one has better features? (More features does not always mean better)

Does iOS 9 allow you to access the actual files on it like i can on my android?

How is the battery life/ longevity of the battery after one year? (My ipod touch 4 basically has to be plugged in all the time, otherwise its got about 30 minutes of charge after a full charge cycle.)
Battery is my only real concern for the iphone, the only thing that kept people updating every year to the new thingy was that the battery was only worthwhile for about 9 months. Then it would turn to shit.
>>
>>53020790
iOS absolutely has the most straightforward experience. Most of the stuff you want it to do, it already has it done.

Thats a very general question.
I like Air Drop more than Android Beam, it just works.
Night Shift is stupidly easy to do, and it doesn't have that really shitty red-orange tint that Twilight has.

No. You will never need to access the files, but you can sync anything and everything that you'll need to through iTunes and iCloud

I've only had the phone about a month, and I've never let it drop past 20%, I like to keep it topped off to help the battery stay alive longer.

(It's bad to let lithium batteries die completely)

I keep it vanilla other than to communicate with basic friends, I use Telegram for work.

I use 3D Touch more to check my open apps instead of double tapping the home button, pushing down on the left side of the screen is a lot faster. It's solid to peek at a photo you just took without having to actually leave the camera screen. Sometimes I'll use it on my home screen

Ok serious now, 350? was it used/refurb? or was a telco discount?

Can you still jailbreak this stuff?

As for your old motoX did you only used the stock ROM or you tried any better ones?
>>
>>53021211
I like the click of the home button myself, but if I just want the previous app I'll press+swipe.

Documents 5 is a good file viewer, it can't handle somethings but for general purpose it's great. I have 112 apps, based 64gb storage doubt I'll even go over 30 used.

I got an asston of discounts from Apple, Trade in, Student and employee

Depends on what iOS you're on. Pangu has 9.0.2 jailbreaks available and they're not too far off of releasing 9.2

No, I don't feel the need to put any work into installing a new OS just to make it work better.

You work at apple?

> Pangu has 9.0.2 jailbreaks

So you can still pirate paid apps? nice

As for the android distros you should've tried before switching man, I have a nexus which is waaaaay better than all the OEM shit and yet even cyanogen is a major upgrade over stock android, let alone the crap companies like samsung and motorola give you

Anyway, do you use a mac as well?

It's a gimmick alright, but one I'll make use of

For a while they have taken androids. Forgot when it started and not op but there are a few companies that get Apple discounts, Humana for one, and I think Kroger groceries (maybe not true)

Not stolen I suppose

How big is the discount you get as an employee? can you buy shit and then resell it for the difference?

>>53021456

The bigass 6 from last year or the new 6P?

And try putting a custom ROM on it, trust me it will be better that way
>>
>>53021536
>>53021536
I checked them all with our diagnostic tool, after checking them at iCloud.com

Depending on the time of year its anywhere from a 15-45% discount. You do that math.

Easy as fuck.
I downloaded the move to iPhone app from the play store and transferred my contacts, my photos are synced with Google Photos so that was a snap to keep them all, and I don't text so that was simple as hell.

TL;DR I put as much effort as a fully capable human would to make a ham sandwich.
