yes i know they are, with the 2016/2017 release, iphone is yet to drop the iphone 7.. I personally will re vist this thread in 2months and we will talk about the iphone 7 sells.. The iphone 6 flagship outsold any phone of its time then, the 7 would do same.. But not to say, i an not bashind Samsung, infact they are really doing their best, its the os android that actually keeps allowing the iphone embarrass it.. Hope samsung tinzen experiment would be successful.

Am having alot of doubt about apple sales this year, maybe because apart form the new number and dual camera,they might not be able to convince many people to upgrade,i definitely will be revisiting this thread 2 month later
Re: iPhone 6S: Honest Review by Teedeechian(m): 7:19pm On Aug 24, 2016

That is because Samsung has already released 2 phones this year, galaxy s7 and note 7 while iPhone has only released low end iPhone se which we didn't actually expect to sell much.

Another reason is last year was an 's' year which is the year apple sales normally go down. Watch out for the iPhone 7 and see how people will queue up just to be the first to get it. As expected, iPhone 6 sold more than 6s, just like 5 sold more than 5s.

Yet another another reason is because Samsung releases up to 20 phones a year with lots of entry level, mid range and high end phones. So as expected, a lot of their sales are coming from these cheap entry level phones... They even make non smartphones which are included in the sales count. Have u asked urself why apple are richer? Because they only sell premium phones. Only once has a Samsung Galaxy s flagship phone outsold iPhone and that was the galaxy s3. Every year Samsung flagship phones don't even get close to iPhone sales. Though there's an argument that the sales is due to the fact that there are scores of android oems competiting with Samsung for android marketshare while only apple make ios phones. But it is what it is.


Only time will tell.

bro, believe me almost everyone is going cray waiting on the iphone 7.. Ijustine, a big popular YouTuber already made mention of her camping out three days ahead of the iphone 7.. Everything apple pro same thing, ultimateidevice , same me too.. I am in a certain whatsapp international iphone group consisting of 256members, and a pangu team member too, dude the iphone 7 hype is real.. Apple can never go low on sells with a flagship phone... I understand your post though, but you would be suprised... I too, will preorder myself one, since i am convinced their will be no 7s...

Re: iPhone 6S: Honest Review by Teedeechian(m): 1:26pm On Aug 25, 2016
To the speed test of iPhone 6s and Samsung Note 7,it is completely unfair. comparing two different software platforms and two diffrent CPU architectures with the apps written differently for the each platform. Other than that GN7 has much higher resolution display and CPU combine with GPU will take much more stress to render graphics on that display, Now turn on the 720p mode on Galaxy Note 7 and try it again.. We all know that the iphone 6s is just a measly 720p screen compared to 1440p screen of GN7 which is 4 times the pixels to process.. That is why they don't test it with Apple's phablet the iphone 6S plus because even with just full hd 1080p screen is heavy enough for the A9 to compete with SD820. When it compares android apps with ios apps everyone knows they are written in two different languages and two different approaches. Even though apple loads apps faster some of the UI contents loads much slower than androids. Last but not least who the hell like to use apples propitiatory technology and extremely limited IOS over the full featured open-source android.

Ollah2 Silence is the best treatment for a barbaric character like you, you are only displaying the typical characteristics of Android fanboys so I'm not surprised. You are only good for nothing on this thread and the earlier you realize that fact the better for you. None of us arguing in favour of iOS is in your league and no amount of famziing can catapult you to our podium. Stay on your lane, none of this gibberish you are spitting will hold water.

As good as the note 7 is, gorilla glass 5 used is a hit or miss. For people that don't like using screen protectors it is a big fail as it scratches too easily. In other to make it shatterproof they had to use both glass and plastic for the screen hence easily scratched.


can't blame Samsung for that,its Gorilla glass's fault. Samsung is the the first phone to use GG5.Fact is gorilla glass isn't scratch proof,neither is screen protector shatter proof,one can't do both job,but at least GG5 Is still better than GG4 and any iphone screen (shatter test not scratch test).

Phonearena as always been biased. From crediting features from different rivals that Samsung and other manufacturers implement in their devices, to ALWAYS one rival, apple:

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Samsung-Galaxy-S7-to-have-a-version-of-Live-Photos-called-Vivid-Photo_id77435

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Samsung-to-answer-Apple-iPhone-SE-with-4.6-inch-Galaxy-S7-mini-featuring-SD-820-or-Exynos-8890-SoC_id79259

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Camera-and-Photos-apps-for-Windows-10-Mobile-receive-updates_id79520

Yet not writing a single article pointing out the dozens of features that single rival has copied:

http://www.gottabemobile.com/2015/06/08/ios-9-features-apple-borrowed-from-android/

http://phandroid.com/2015/09/09/iphone-6s-new-features-vs-android-phones/

Even when that single rival is clearly copying an idea from one of the competitor products they've written about:

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Blocks-wants-to-make-the-perfect-wearable-with-a-modular-smartwatch_id58017

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Qualcomm-Sense-ID-unveiled-ultra-sonic-fingerprint-sensors_id66687

They don't mention such competitor products in their articles about that single rival's products, they instead keep shut like it doesn't matter:

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Patent-filing-reveals-Smart-Modular-Bands-for-the-Apple-Watch_id79866

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Apple-patent-application-hints-at-embedded-TouchID-first-step-toward-an-edge-to-edge-design_id81279

To writing nitpicky headlines to downplay the successful competition, from calling certain words/phrases in their adverts a copy from apple:

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Is-LG-using-an-old-iPhone-tagline-to-promote-the-G5_id79791

to desperately going through dishonest means to put the iPhone at an obviously unfair advantage in comparisons, like this camera comparison, in which they intentionally downscale the Xperia X's 23MP camera to 8MP just to put the iPhone at an advantage:

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Sony-Xperia-X-vs-iPhone-6s-which-has-the-better-camera_id81890

and this outdoor screen brightness comparison, in which they disable auto-brightness (turned on by default) on the competitor devices, again, just to put the iPhone at an advantage:

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Outdoor-display-comparison-iPhone-6s-vs-S7-edge-vs-10-vs-G5_id81070

even when multiple other sites:

http://www.gsmarena.com/piccmp.php3?idType=4&idPhone1=7948&idPhone2=7242

http://bfy.tw/5kQa

and real world user feedback proves it to be BS:


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8uCyIjUt_b8

going as far as claiming competitor products are not worth their price tag:

http://www.phonearena.com/news/Why-I-think-800-is-too-much-for-the-Galaxy-S7-edge_id79644

Yet not a single article pointing out why {apple product name} isn't worth the price tag, despite ALL the rational reasons out there, from being inferior in terms of flexibility/versatility/compatibility, to inability to do what a dumb phone is capable of, to the planned obsolescence of iOS updates (/1VpBxSa), etc.

To making bizarre naive statements in praise of that 1 rival's products, like "No PC will let you do what the iPad does for $999":

http://www.phonearena.com/news/iPad-Pro-9.7-inch-specs-review--big-guns-small-form_id79566

To mentioning cons in non-apple device reviews, yet ignoring those same cons in apple device reviews even though they 100% apply.

To inconsistency in product reviews. Like their con for the S6 was due to it lacking a MicroSD card slot, so they gave it a 9.3. Then S7 fixes that and improves on many other things, they go and give it a 9.

They need to end their hypocrisy and double standards.

yes mahn, when you reboot the device it automatically goes to its unjailbroken state, if you want jailbreak, you activate it.. Very simple like that bro..

But if you truly want to just get rid of it, restore your ios and its gone permanently..

I can see u are happy that iPhone apps are failing more than android apps for THE FIRST TIME in 8 yrs of android existence.... BRAVO.

But u do know these tests are carried out by different bodies, some claim ios apps crash more while some will claim android apps crash more. But I trust u, if I post a picture that says android apps crash more the first thing u will say is isite so there's no point.

i would advise not to jailbreak, cos running tweaks drain battery more, and you will be tempted to keep tweaking, i did that like last 3 weeks, but just had to go back to my normal unjailbroken state, because i could do almost everything i need already without jailbreak, so no need really..

any screen dropped, either damages or survives, screen dropped is rather not important to most users, scratch is actually what users look out for..

Perhaps you didn't read my screenshots yesterday that showed how inconsistent ios has been since the 7th version. Only you know where you got the screenshot from, I'm sure you must have searched the whole Internet to come up with that cos a simple go ogling shows a different thing perhaps the writer was drunk writing.

Now I know why iphone launches apps faster. They do so they can crash sooner. Bravo!

Is that all you can come up with?? You are better than this. Which phone got released devoid of one or two software bugs. Samsung/Android fans agree to this. They know it's normal for phone to have bugs upon its release but it should be fixed asap.


But my dear iFans believe their iphones and IOS is perfect. Guess what, we hit ya where it hurts when you say this. You simply ignored my message. Are you mad at me?

Apple were made to know 2 days back that an isreali company , was taking advantage of a security hack and selling the intelligence to the government, so that governments can be able to track your iphone activities.. Apple immediately responded by buffing up its security and released an update to protect us from it, no company got your back like Apple does, its very important to upgrade to 9.3.5, if you care alot about security...
