I've used an android tab ( samsung note 2), a blackberry smart phone ( blackberry curve 5 touch screen) and I just got an iphone. Nothing, NOTHING in this world is like an iPhone. Apple really sat down on each function or feature to perfect it. Unlike the bb, they just wanted to release a smartphone while they majored on sending emails as though that iis all we do with a smart phone. I've also used a HTC.

None can compare with the iphone. The experience, the handling, sending emails, browsing, notifications, scheduling appointments and reminders, handling phone book and contact, music, video, social sites, games, downloading apps and updating, .... Men, the only thing it cannot do is kill people. It even includes measures for retrieving ur phone if lost or stolen.

If only they could just stop being selfish and enable flash player and include USB ports.... It would be everything.

Anyway, i'd go for the S IV, just for the little left that apple did not include. The S IV will be my iPhone' personal assistant.

mikky4all: just got mine too. Are u really feeling the phone. I am nt enjoying it.

If u really want to enjoy android, go for Samsung note 2, not SIII. If u really want to enjoy a phone, go for iPhone 5.

Samsung galaxy 3 is small jor. The biggest and best phone in the industry right now is the 'Samsung Galaxy Note II' aka the big bad wolf smiley.

Apart from the Samsung Galaxy IV maybe coming with jelly bean 4.2 out-of-the-box, I don't see how it would be better than the Note II.

You are the one who needs a doctor. Andriod is an open source OS which can be used by any mobile phone maker if they wish to. FYI andriod is andriod on whatever phone. Windows is window either on a HP or an acer laptop. The hard ware maybe different, can be more silk and more durable but the operating system is the same.

dude there are low end, mid range and high end android phones,lay your hands on all three and you get to see the difference

You've been hanging out with Iphone fan boys too much. Can you please list what android stole from IOS?


Please only list things that were "invented" with IOS

I doubt he followed their patents tuss keenly!.
Comparing Brickberry with the Android Os is impossible! its like Comparing a pigeon with an eagle!

Btw, talking about the Best mobile OS, I hope he as well as other brickberry and Aplle fanboys know the most advanced and most enhanced Os presently is Google's own Android Os. The 4.1.2 (updated jellybean to be specific!)

Understand this - an android phone is an android phone, whether it is Tecno N3 or Galaxy S3. The differences are simply additions which we all like but hardly use or when last did you use the S-Beam or the Siri-like feature?

Wrong!!! they dont and will never have same features! A single core processor phone compared to a phone(a beast) with Dual core or quad core processor?? is it comparable?! more like Comparing the updated jelly bean 4.2 on Android with Nokia Java pttt!

Please read the specs of what you want to buy before you decide and draw conclusions!!...

Has anyone noticed how long your have to Tap most Android screens before it responds? Even the storm I used 2 years ago did better.
Keep fooling yourselves.
How about the pixel resolutions, VERY POOR. Ice cream, Jelly Beans my AZzzzz.
I know people who are successful with their business thanks to BB.
Let's wait and see what your Androids will do for you.

You sure have not used an android high spec phone. I own and use a bb n an android, everything u mentioned here r the issues I have with my bb not the android. An app/menu/button can be selected/clicked on my android without actually touching the screen.

The blackberry messenger is the only thing keeping people there but whatsapp is becoming very popular.

One thing you should know is that more than 80% bb users in Nigeria use the fairly used phones shipped from asia n europe.

One thing my android has helped me do is to stop subscription I had to do on my bb(3000) and laptop(2500). Now I can subscribe on one device and use it as my internet hub, connecting up to 10 devices if I choose to. Try that with your bb!

Iphone is bad but Androids are badder.
Issues with iphone:
1. They are sill selfish with screen space. Everybody is becoming bolder and bigger, the neeed for larger screens.
2. The fact that you still can't just share content with your other devices is a just too behind.
3. No expandable memory.
4. Overpriced!
5. No removable battery!
6. Heard of rooting n overclocking in android?!

Etc, etc

there is nothing you've mention that the andriod cannot do. Yes! It does everything and even more. Just try an andriod phone(I know you haven't used it) and see for yourself, your eyes will be open to see that your iphone is a WHITE ELEPHANT gadget. You'll begin to cry cos you've been scammed by apple.

You are the one who should shut up. Before BB10 which BB Device could compare [in price] with GS3 Thats not even the case, the thing here is that you even spend more on internet on a 14k andriod phone than a 65k blackberry. Now that theres no BIS on BB10, check out how many nigerians will buy that shii. BIS is cheap and thats what makes blackberry this popular.

IV actually used an android, not for long though. When u talk of user experience, u can't compare the iPhone or iOS to android. When u talk about user friendliness, the iphone is just over the top. From simple tasks to animation to thrill, the iOS has got it pretty much handled as though it understands the way we think and feel. For someone like me that easily gets bored, swiping the screen to move to the next screen page is not just enough, the feel of these movements, the handling scores high with me. That is how u know a strong brand. Swipe at the iOS screen and then android and compare.

As for functionality, I would just give u 2 of many remarkable experiences I got with the iPhone.

1. When I bought the iPhone, my bb was switched off. I was thinking of how I'd transfer my contact to the iPhone knowing that the brand won't allow any kind of collab with any other device. So I started setting up the phone. First thing I did was to feed in my apple ID, credit card details and email. Then I just casually put on my bb cos its been off for so long. Barely 10 minutes after I put on that bb, I realized that all my email contact, phone numbers, the whole shibang was available on my iPhone. 10 mins. No Bluetooth on, no sim switch, no infra red, no nothing. I almost fainted, I spent hours thinking about it, I thought someone might have hacked into my devices; until I remembered it could be via my email which I also had registered on my bb.

2. I was looking for a particular business woman i met at a trip to calabar. She is into branding and her coy is very good. I had her on my phone but I couldn't remember her name and I have over 400 names on my phone. So I tried to ftch mail exchanges we had almost a year ago but google had cleaned them all out. So I did a search for branding in my email and managed to get her coy name. I located her number on my phone but she was not reachable on that line. At that time, the iPhone was prompting me that it wanted to sync my Facebook contacts with my phone contacts. I agreed and after about 10 mins, I don't know how it did it, it showed me the picture of the lady and her real name of Facebook. It had matched the number and her coy name from my phone to what it found on Facebook and synced everything, and provided me a link to her Facebook profile. I never had this lady in my Facebook account, I never knew her name, I called her by her coy name. Now all the numbers and mail contact on my phone have a face attached with links to Facebook profiles, whether I knew them or not. How cool is that?

I can't tell it all here man, the experience with iOS and the iPhone is simply kick asss. It's just doing everything man, the only thing left for it to do is to wipe me clean when I take a dump. Guy forget, android is till coming. But here we r talking about the big boys.
