>people still unironically buy Iphones
Why? When will people start being smart and realizing iOS is shit and iphones are too?
They're the most watered-down, vanilla things you can buy with no options or customization, no SD card slots, and people only buy them as a fashion accessory
The major advantage is software. iOS software is just leaps and bounds better than Android. Even when Android is smooth and fast, the interface is still clunky and inconsistent.
It's essentially the same difference as exists on the PC side between Windows and Macs: OSX is just incomparably more polished (and that extends also to 3rd party apps) vs. Windows (let alone Linux).
>>55238321
Also ironic a supposed mark against iOS is "you can't customize it", when what every Android fanboy longs for is as close to "Stock Android" as possible.
>>55238321
And what professional work do you perform on your Android phone?
>>55238380
Pretty much this. I think Apple is fucking up a lot recently, but I can't bring myself to move away from the ecosystem because of this.
It's true for both the mobile OS and the computer OS.
>>55238321
It just werks and it looks nice. People don't buy these for another reason. Also there is that believe that you have money if you have an iPhone, extremely so in poor countries.
>>55238405
To be honest though, I would probably go for one of these once Apple drop the headphone jack on the next version. I just got a 6s 128 GB though, so I won't be upgrading for a while.

>>55238508
Really don't think superior OSX software is subjective.
iOS developers actually use Apple's latest APIs, and Apple has far and away the best toolkits for consumer-facing stuff in the industry. The fact that almost everyone is on the latest OS release as soon as it's released helps push things forward. As for whatever reason (similar to the Mac) a far higher standard prevails in terms of interface design: nobody tolerates anything ugly on Apple platforms.
>>55238584
*superior iOS software
>>55238428
Also forgot superior hardware

>>55238583
Don't act like others care. I had a nice s6 edge when the meme was in full force, yet everyone who saw it looked at it for a few seconds and said "cool." You can't compare it to a car or clothes because a phone is your device; what average person will spend that much time looking at your phone than something that is much more noticeable and is meant to show off?
People don't buy iPhones for the style anymore, especially in first world countries, because the style is normal. They buy it for the simplicity and confirmation that it just works.
>>55238689
>People don't buy iPhones for the style anymore, especially in first world countries
This x1000
Buying iphones as a "status symbol" or something is a 3rd world as fuck thing. No one in a developed country gives a shit about that.
>Wont look like a poorfag in public
I live in a developed first world country, and I see more androids than iphones nowadays.
>>55239222
There are still more poor people than rich people in first world countries, so that's why you see more poors with android devices.
>>55239242
But that's not why they're using androids, generally.
Anyone that gets an iphone for status is a fucking idiot anyway
Buying a high-end Android phone is a more legit sign of wealth since they depreciate so hard and so fast.
>>55238321
User Experience isn't just a meme, OP. and Apple knows how to create a great one.
People would rather have not-so-powerful tech that works well and that's easy to interact with than powerful tech that is clunky to use.
Well, all the normies I know that use Android just use whatever shit fucking skin is on their LG or Shamsung.
Just give it up.
Nobody fuckin cares.

This is why people buy iPhones.
Anyone here switched to a dumbphone + P&S camera? I'm thinking of getting a new Nokia 105 and a Canon Ixus.

You have listed all the things that Don't Matter to most phone users.
Almost nobody (except tragic cases like you) cares about SD card slots. Customization is a "feature" that is hardly ever used. Do you customize your car? Your bike? Your TV? You must buy a lot of MLP stickers in a year.
As for fashion, we notice that Android phone-makers slavishly copy anything Apple does, badly. Right out of Microsoft's playbook.
The only advantage Android enjoys is price, just like McDonald's.
>>55238321
So basically it just works, doesn't have useless bloat, doesn't waste your time with customizing a fucking phone and even looks good? Wonder why anybody would buy a phone like that!

So the latest iPhone has a microsd slot, 1440p res screen, capacity to torrent, can be used as a flash drive, and you can share stuff over bluetooth and direct wifi now?!
Look the features that I want don't exist on iPhones and that's mostly why I switched. My iPhone 6s plus was okay but I wanted to be able to do more things. Fact is iPhones lack a ton of desirable features and apple is stubborn to add them and nothing will change that.

Nope my Note 4 gets better battery life than my iPhone 6s plus did. I could easily tell the screen was more high res too, there is a difference between 1080p and 1440p albeit not easy for the average joe to spot.
One thing I was really shocked about was how good an amoled display is. Readability in the sunlight is ridiculously good even at 20% brightness. I wonder why apple never adopted amoled.

It's like it has a bigger battery! Besides, different screen technology. AMOLED uses a lot less power if you display tons of dark stuff.
>I could easily tell the screen was more high res too
Nice placeboo.
>albeit not easy for the average joe to spot
Nobody holds their phone 5cm away from the face.
>One thing I was really shocked about was how good an amoled display is
Not really relevant when talking about the resolution. AMOLED is based indeed.
>I wonder why apple never adopted amoled.
Because it took a while for the technology to mature, and seems they didn't fix the burn in issues completely yet. Though going by rumours Apple is jumping on the train now or in the near future.

>>55244648
I'm telling you mang, I could easily tell. Text looked more smooth and crisp. Images looked like they had less "noise", kinda hard to describe it.
Anyway maybe I'm a special snowflake and got better eyesight through lucky genetics or something but I could definitely tell my Note 4 screen was better.
In general though most people should stick to 1080p res screens on their phone, most probably can't tell the difference between 1080p and 1440p on a phone screen.
iOS is okay to the dumb "just let me do it" consumer.

>>55244812

>>55238380
How long has it been since you last used Android?
The interface is far from clunky, albeit it is more complex due to extra functionality.
The clunkiest bit of Android is the fact that apps have a choice as to whether or not they implement material design.

To all the ignorant people still hating on samsung phones... Come to 2016. Samsung has had the best smartphone the last year+ , from note 5 to S7/edge both market leaders. Better battery life than you iphone (6s+ is on par though) while still having a QHD display, you wont know, not to mention just better aesthetics in general in my opinion and WAYYYY WAYYYYYYYY more software and hardware capabilities. Samsung and Nexus are the current kings.

But first off, you're supposed to rage at my email count, that's why I post my screenshots.

Android for me has a consistent and UI and I can't stand iOS's back button being in the most unreachable spot on the screen. And I've used a Android since gingerbread.
Maybe one of these days I'll switch to iOS and try to be open minded about it. But man i don't think i can make the investment :( Android just gives me so much choice of hardware.
>>55243673
Almost every single point here is wrong
>>55238395
Strawman. You didn't contradict the point at all, you created this imaginary "android user" figure and decided you know all his wants and needs. iOS remains unconfigurable, but you have this great meme to divert attention to.
>>55243673
This is obviously a very old and outdated post. iPhones have come a long way
But that fact that it's 2016 and iPhones still don't have SD slots, can't download for shit, force you to use itunes, can't torrent and still have no back button is pretty pathetic.
This shit should be standard across the board, but iphone still insists on being shit for the sake of being special snowflakes.
Also things like forcing you to use Apple specific lightning cables and forcing you to buy Apple only products.
People buy iphones for the name and to look trendy doing it. That's it, or people wouldn't keep paying for that crap
>>55246607
>iOS remains unconfigurable
In what way? There are plenty of settings.
>>55246646
I refuse to believe that anyone gives a fuck that you can't torrent on a phone.
>>55246573
Are you fucking retarded? Almost all of those points are facts. I should know, I literally used to own an iPhone 5s before I switched to android.
>>55246646
I don't care about trendy. I just like having a unified OS across all devices. Especially with the app ecosystem and whatnot. Jailbreaking really unlocks its potential but its been quite a while since that.
Most of the other criticisms about it are valid though. Shit sucks.

>>55246865
>>55246673
The fact is, people with iPhones have to modify their device and to do what an average Android can do stock, and there are still no-brainer things every phone should have, like SD card slots, that iPhone still refuses to implement

>>55246897

They're correct. My iPhone had dogshit battery life and the camera was shit especially at night.
>Shit mobile OS isn't an argument

>Sharing files over wifi is wrong
So you can share .rars and mkv files over wifi now?
>Bluetooth is completely wrong
You literally can't share photos over bluetooth, I've was never able to do so with my iPhone.
>No hardware back button isn't an argument
It's a neat feature iPhones should have adopted eons ago. Having to go all the way to the top of the screen is fucking dumb to have to undo/go back.
>Shit multi-tasking is wrong
My iPhone would literally start reloading websites after having more than 2 website tabs open.

>>55246897
>iPhone are a fashion accessory for girls
That's a quarter of the truth. It's more of a tool for social networking. And I don't mean social networks, I mean people who socialize. Girls and guys use it, and they use it for iMessage, Tinder, Snapchat, and Instagram. The Android is usually seen with disdain as a tech tool for spergs, just as Blackberries are perceived as a business networking tool.

You should be aware that iPhones are now seen as a symbol for being a homosexual for male users in many places now. In my college only girls and homosexuals have iPhones. Pretty convenient to me, now I know which dudes are degenerates who I should never talk to. Homosexuality is a sin you know.
>>55246906
The basic average iphone is still 16gb, which only 10 of that is actually usable for storage. It's Jewry at it's finest.
You either deal with literally no memory, and no option to use SD cards for more, or you shell out outrageous amounts of money for the larger memory versions.
>>55246973
I've had a 4s, 5, 6 and 6s and none of my phones ever had an SD slot.
>>55247016
You can't predict the future. Maybe 16GB is enough for you today but what about 1-2 years later? Don't you want the ability to upgrade how much storage you can have cheaply just in case? microsd cards are always getting cheap, I wouldn't be surprised if you could buy a 128GB UHS-I one for $10 next year.

>>55247149
If it's not stored locally and you need it in that scenario it's probably not that important. You seem to be under the assumption that you would have no local storage at all. Also, "idiot cloud"? Are you 12? You also don't work in the tech industry which explains a lot.

>>torrenting on your phone
What's so bad about torrenting on your phone? I love watching game of thrones or movies in bed with my Note 4. Takes less than 5 minutes to download a movie since I have 50mbps wifi at home too.
>>55247272
I meant iOS.
>>55247347
Dude just hang yourself right now. You could have easily deleted your reply, corrected it, and posted it again. You're a bigger failure than I am.
>>55247329
You might be okay with the shit quality you can get on public trackers and leeching but I'm not. You don't have to have a torrent client on your phone to watch something on your phone. You do know how to transfer a file between your computer and a phone, right?
>>55247367
>You might be okay with the shit quality you can get on public trackers and leeching but I'm not.
I use private trackers.
>You don't have to have a torrent client on your phone to watch something on your phone. You do know how to transfer a file between your computer and a phone, right?
Sure but why would I do that when I can already download the movie on my phone in less than 5 minutes? I have a 200GB microsd card so storage isn't a problem.
re: torrenting on phones, I've used MovieBox on (jailbroken) iOS to follow TV shows when I've been traveling: when I have access to wifi I'd download the latest episode in a few minutes.
>>55247394
So what do you do in the long term? Delete your videos? It makes much more sense to centralize it somewhere else then distribute it. Also you seriously let your client run so you can seed on those private trackers? Yikes.

Did u forget stage fright. Like 90% of android phones have some unpatched known vulns. It's not secure.
>>55247425
>So what do you do in the long term? Delete your videos?
Not yet, still have 60GB on my microsd card free.
>It makes much more sense to centralize it somewhere else then distribute it.
All my torrents are centralized on my phone.
>Also you seriously let your client run so you can seed on those private trackers? Yikes.
yup, have a vpn on and mostly seed at night when I connect to home wifi.
I don't even use my desktop that much desu, gonna wait for Samsung to release their 320GB microsd card next year to get more storage space. In the meantime I'll have to start deleting a few things once space gets low on my current 200GB microsd card.
>>55247496
>Not yet, still have 60GB on my microsd card free.
So what happens when you run out of storage? Going to transfer it somewhere for long term keeping?
Anyways, does that seriously not destroy your battery? It just seems like it's the most inefficient way to do anything.
>>55247470
This exploit has been patched everywhere since like 2 months ago. Updates took time but everyone who updated their phones through google or carrier OTA updates are now not in any danger from stagefright which required users to open videos from strangers.

I'm not sure yet but I have many options.
>Anyways, does that seriously not destroy your battery? It just seems like it's the most inefficient way to do anything.
Not really, no. I leave my phone charging overnight to seed stuff and shut down my torrent client in the morning when I go to work.

Yes, yes you can. You only need an app that's for network transfers, or has the ability built in.

Faggot lying his ass off, as an actual owner of a phone with Touch ID, it's godly. Home screen has quick access to actions in apps, can read iMessages without showing you're reading with peek function, pressing on keyboard allows you to move the cursor around the text field (useful if you make text mistakes or want to edit a message faster), you can preview links system wide without opening them. Just a few cool things my famalan. Personally the iPhone 5 was my favorite iPhone, but I got used to the size of my 6s fairly quickly so it's not much of a problem.
>>55247511
Where's that proof?
Because there exist some brain damaged people that believe homosexuality is not a sin.
>>55247611
Fuck meant 3D Touch, not Touch ID >>55247622
I like girls anon, im not a faggot. And fa helped me find the sauce on some shoes, so how are they bad?

Seems like all of that could just be implemented with a long press?
>>55247657
>>55247657
What? I made one thread there months ago anon, fa isn't even in my board list.
Why should I not like a board if I ask a question and they help me?
>>55243177
Cause they're too stupid to deal with wakelocks?
>>55247733
Why on earth should your average person have to?
Also, aren't they making Doze more active in N to help out with this? As in it will do more than just turn on when you're not using the phone for an extended period?
>>55247762
Well if you're a retard that installs some shitty app that keeps your phone awake, then its not really the phone's fault now is it.
>>55247774
While I agree that it's a stupid decision to install apps with bad behaviors you have to realize that these phones are being used by average joe schmuck and not people who know better. Plus, big names like Facebook are notorious for this. It's something the end user shouldn't have to worry about.

These are the people we share a board with.
No doubt this guy is in every single thread about women in this board too.

What of phone is pressure sensitive and what function do you mean?
>>55248008
Pressing on a keypad lets you freely move the cursor to place it where you want in text, releasing keypad sets cursor at "X" place in text field. Hard to explain with words, sorry if it's confusing.
>>55248004

Not surprised.
>>55248033
That's an OS, not a phone.
>>55248033
>mentions LG
>doesn't mention LG when asked for a source
Also, I use an Android phone, but was not aware of this. Do you think of everyone who doesn't magically have the same knowledge as you as a clueless retard?
I need a new phone, my Iphone 4 from straight talk keeps getting throttled after like 4 days after refilling the UNLIMITED DATA plan,
Straight talk is super jewish
>>55248102
>not reading the fine print
>>55248109
Who reads that junk?
>>55248033
That calculates a pressure estimate on how much screen real estate is tapped anon, through software...not a hardware implementation at all.
>>55248045
Nearly every android phone that's over $100 likely has a pressure sensitive screen. You can even test it if you actually read for more than 2 seconds.
>>55238321
>They're the most watered-down, vanilla things you can buy with no options or customization, no SD card slots, and people only buy them as a fashion accessory
You answered your own question.
Now, I'm no iPhone defender but I can see why some people prefer it.
I HAVE an android. I choose android.
Still, I see why some people like iPhones. They are for people who need something simple and easy to use and does the basic things like texting and talking, and they also like to surf the net and get on snapchat, twitter, facebook, etc.
For all that iPhone is perfect.
It's when you want to get down to pirating movies, adding memory, sideloading apps, rooting, customization etc that things get complicated, but not everyone needs that.
Not everyone needs their phone to be a special snowflake, and I as a mature adult accept that... even though it's not what I choose.
Grow up. One day you'll understand that not everyone has to like what you like.
>>55248174
>if you buy an android you aren't allowed to only use it for basic things like texting and talking, and they also like to surf the net and get on snapchat, twitter, facebook, etc.

Glad to see it triggers your autism, you sperg
>>55248210
I'm not saying that you fuckwit
I'm saying that if that's all you need to do then an iPhone does all that
The android does all that and more, but some people aren't interested in the "more"
>>55248260
>but some people aren't interested in the "more"
Then for them literally any phone over $300 is "perfect" according to you.
>>55248174
But anon I can pirate movies and side load apps. However I don't pirate movies because I'm not a poor thief, and the only side loaded apps I have are f.lux and iNDS, but since I updated to iOS 9.3.3, I don't need flux anymore, and don't play many games so a ds emulator just takes up space. Not that I needed, I have 20gb free
>>55247791
This, I'm not uninstalling vital apps I use to communicate with my friends just because android is incompetent at self-maintenance

Anyone with any semblance of intelligence. Don't you think "unlimited" sounds too good to be true? It is. Because they throttle you after a certain point.
>>55242050
If you request "galaxy slow" you will have amost as much results as android. Because there are a septilion Android models and people are more specific when searching for their problems. Iphones on the other hand have only like 10 iterations, and all of them are included in that graph.
You also forgot to include where those people are coming from.

>ios and osx = best combo ever
Seriously everything fucking work with their native solutions, no need to hack around or use google botnet or pay for third party software.
Sure, Apple have a lot of shitty policies and shitty products, but I have a hard time finding flaws (compared to android devices) in iPhones and MacBooks Pro, maybe the price, but once again, if you don't live in your parents' basement you probably can afford one at some point in your life.

Literally the only argument mactoddlers ever have is to compare their garbage to even worse walmart garbage, because comparing same price tier products just makes apple trash look like complete fucking shit.
Why do brain dead mactoddlers even come to /g/?
>>55249340
I only see facts. maybe it's not true that there are not android phones that work better, but you can't deny that an iphone works much batter than a huge majority of android phones

Most people don't even know they're using Android. This doesn't make much sense and was already posted in the thread previously. I'd bank more on people being retarded in large quantities more than anything specific.
Though at least with Apple their customer service is good enough where it's not an issue if this actually does happen.

It does what I need it to do and I like how it looks. Also My iPhone 5 is still going strong after almost four years, which is nice as well.
Go fuck yourself, I don't need to tinker with everything I buy just to waste my time. I've got actual work to do in my life and learned to be just grateful when stuff effortlessly works.
Seriously I want to switch to an iPhone but it seems too restrictive can an owner tell me if this is possible? (even jailbroken)

It's all just faggotry, really. People that buy Apple products are pretentious children with low self-esteem who think that owning Apple's overpriced jewelry makes them cool. Apple is a shit-tier company that makes shit-tier products. Their hardware is overpriced garbage, their software is bloated bug-filled shit written mostly by shitskin retards, and they are managed by literal butt-fucking faggots. Apple and all its customers must fucking die.
>>55251467
Such as pixel density, default save folders, other basic shit...
>>55251467
>>55251908
But to be honest this is secondary I don't give a shit if it's closed on this side. The first things are way more important for me, if you need something on android you can always find a combination of software that will enable you to do what you want. It's really comfy, but I'm getting tired of bugs, crashes and overall slowness sometimes.
>>55238321
Just because you are autistic and need to rice up every shit you get in your hands doesn't mean a normal person does. Android phones are shit, that's a fact. They are full of bloatware, malware, unoptimized programs, planned obselence, no updates even for 1 year old flagship phones. Why should I buy an android phone that shit itself after 12 months of usage?
I used to be an android user but all the shit they are doing forced me into an iPhone. And I don't regret it. Never going back.
Stay mad you poorfag, try to save up some money from your welfare maybe you can afford one someday.
Why Im on iphone:
>faster than any android phone
>best looking UI
>applications consistent with the system UI
>more practical UI (one layered home-screen/dedicated widget tab/swipe to return/3d touch)
>does everything I need
>just works
>doesnt lag
>pretty much the best build quality on market
>great camera/screen/SoC/storage
>great design
>software updates for years and years
>almost no depreciation
>more secure/encrypted
>apple isnt interested in selling my data for ad money
>best 1st & 3rd party and dev support
>imessage/Higher social status
Its impossible to buy an iPhone and say 'I overpaid for this'
I'll tell you why I got an iPhone: I had a Moto X 2014. Google promised that it would be treated almost just like the Nexus line... Then they sold Motorola to Lenovo. Fuck Google.

how mad are you buddy?
>>55250865
That just flew by your head didn't it huh?
Real reason: ignorance
People get iPhones because they don't know how shit they are. Apple has good marketing and paid shills who spread FUD and misinformation about Android. They're literally doing it right now in this thread. It's worse on sites like facebook and twitter.
Anyway I had a 64GB iPhone 6 mostly because I didn't know what to get and it just looked cool so I assumed it was a good buy without really researching much. It did most things like texting and calling just fine.
Then I started to use my phone for more than that and things went to shit real quick. I really wanted to torrent a movie on the go and there are no torrenting apps for iPhones. My browser would constantly reload web pages if I had more than 2 tabs open. Battery life was abysmal if I used my phone for other than texting/calling. Storage became a problem as I my music and movie library grew.
Anyway eventually I gave up and got a Galaxy S4, best decision of my life. Snapped in a fast 128GB microsd card, learned how to remove most bloat, installed Nova launcher, and bought a 5200 mAh Anker battery.
I absolutely regret ever owning an iPhone. Looking forward to the 256GB microsd card Samsung will release soon. Though I'll probably buy it on black friday.
>>55252564
There are several torrent clients for iOS if you want that.
>>55252677
You have to jailbreak your iPhone to use them. I had updated to the latest iOS version and could not jailbreak mine.
