When would these kids stop posting rubbish on Nairaland. I have two android phones, the smallest is the Galaxy Note 4 and it does not hang at all, in fact it is so fast I can run 3 applications at a time without rooting. My samsung galaxy Note 4 never heats up, even after using it for 24 hours straight, in fact if I put my phone on power savings mode I can use it for 3 days and still have 30% battery life. Finally do you know what I love most about Android? Flexibility: The ability to tweak my phone as I pleased, I'm able to root my phone, do clockspeed and turn it into a well oiled machine, I use my phone to control everything from my Samsung TV to My Car, so the next time you decide to post rubbish, take time and do proper research, you'll be amazed at just how powerful an Android phone can be......

OooH I only receive notificattion for this nonsense facts...
Whn you want to buy phones u check the specifications of that phone... U are using the lowest calibre of Andriod and you are complaining that it hangs whose fault...You carry your money go buy lowest grade you now start complaining and say all phones are bad ....... Beware any phone can hang when u are runing the application that is beyond the processor of that phone..

Nothing in the Universe is perfect, noting like
MR Perfect, that is why i posted this article. Do you know many people love android at the same time so many people don't even think
about Android because of its major Disadvantages. Today I am going to
share with you some of the most
annoying Disadvantages of Android.


"I love Android" this is the slogan for many android users. But the other party says, Android is crap, Read the whole article to know why Android Sucks

1. Hangs a lot
Android is good at lagging and
continuously hanging your phone,
whatever you do it annoys a lot.
Whether you are playing games or you are browsing your gallery
or you are surfing internet, its hangs a lot.

2. Drain battery
Another disadvantages of Android is its drain battery very fast. You play games for 5 minutes and your battery meter drop from 98 to 82. This is how android sucks and eat up your battery as soon as you touch your phone.

3. It drains data
No other os uses data like android devices, just to open a few apps and browse a few pages, data count would already had exceeded your budget.

4. Over heats
This is serious problem for me, Android heats cell phone often. However if you have a good cover on your cellphone you may feel less heat, but if without cover just put your cellphone on your cheek you will find what I mean.

5. Box of Malware Google play store
I agree that Google play has some nice applications sorry many nice
applications but somehow spammers, hackers are ahead of putting malware in
Google play store. If you download 10 Applications a day, 6 will be substandard or malware, so be careful.

These are some of the Drawbacks of Android. this article is helps you to find more about Android and not discriminate it. Thanks.

Many are mad, few are roaming.
you have a ram of 512mb and you're expecting lightening speed.
I'm guessing you know little about smart phones.
1. It hangs a lot . Solution: Get a phone with at least 2gig RAM.
2. Drains battery. Solution: Don't use a phone with a battery lower than 3500mAh.
3. Drains data. Solution: Restrict background data in phone setting(I mean everyone knows dat na!).
4. Over heats. Solution: Don't use your phone while charging. It also lowers the battery life.
5.Box of malware. Solution: Always check the ratings and comment before you download an app on Google play store.

*Op is an iPhone iPad fan boy
When i saw the title of this post, I tot I will see a well
Constructed argument about the flaws of android. Instead I saw crap. Yeah load of crap from someone who knows only what he sees on the surface.
*Use older ipads and tell me if they do not heat up.
All electronic devices that use microprocessors heats up under load.
*No operating system is perfect. All OSes hang due to memory leak. Your almighty ios devices hang too.
*As for battery life goto www.gsmarena.com and look for the king of battery life. No iphone in the top 10.
*Compare sizes of the same app say Facebook on ios and android then tell me which one is bigger. If you want to mise data use opera mini.

Only android phones that hang are the low end phones with low specs. Some low end phones evenhave great battery life.

Most Americans buy iphone because they are gullible. Americans love simplicity, even though the iphone has weaker specifications than the Samsung galaxy note 4, the way it is marketed cannot be rivaled. Nigerians can't fully utilize Android phones because we are still bound by poor electricity and Data restrictions.

Believe me, if we are to see one on one and argue this out, I will so finish you, I will become the new God you worship on Sundays. Cos I will bring out a note 4 and an iphone 6+ so it won't be based on the mouth but the eyes. I will show you all I said on the note 4 and we would carry out the exert same process on the iPhone and see the results. If you will, you will keep either of the note 4 or the iPhone. If I win, u owe me nothing

Dude. Note 4 rated the best smart phone out there at the moment and you need to know that it's on KK. How powerful do you think it would be when its upgraded to Lollipop.

IOS doesn't hang but drains battery and data but WP hangs a lot and even drains battery than Android .... My friends WP only for him to type message on BBM his battery went from 80% - 50%
WP hang wow, that's the first time I'm hearing/reading that.I admit that the bbm app is not to good on wp yet but it's not that bad.your friend's phone must be faulty!

op... some of your points are correct but every OS has it's flaws.as smooth as BB10 os and WP run, they are still lacking in apps aspect.

Sibrah:
Most of the disadvantages highlighted here like Battery drainage and hanging are traceable to substandard hardware from phone manufacturers. Even brands like BB who have control over hardware and OS have most of the issues highlighted here. My main issue with android is the data usage and lack of good data plans, I think a new plan that gives android users an opportunity to update apps and download documents would kill BB totally, example would be a midnight plan that allows users to use time based plan, say, 15 hour and 500-1000 MB data cap for N500 only.
