I don't use IPhone any more, but when I was using it.
with the help of jailbreak I was able to
*use Bluetooth,yes.send and receive for other phones
*didn't need iTunes to import songs nor videos
*customized my phone

IMHO, IPhone is a very good phone but most people here just hold it to brag and have nothing on it. they don't even know what jailbreak mean

you'd only see WhatsApp, bbm , Instagram and candy crush on their phones. so useless

Apart from camera and feel

I started using iphone this year after my old phone got missing.
It set me 190k back and I hated it the first few weeks but after a while, I got to love it.

Iphone never freezes like android or bb
You can acess the camera from the lock screen without having to unlock the phone
Iphone camera can snap like 100 pics or even more in 30 seconds.
The deleted pictures are stored in a special fplder for 40 days.
The finger print unlock system is very on point.
The games and app collection on the app store is topway better than that of android or bb.
The icloud storage guarantees unlimited storage capacity.
I love music so I get them easily ffrom the itunes...
I can have a discussion with siri...loool.....
The battery lasts if you use it just for calls and texts
Facetime is seamless.. trust me, you can compare facetime with Skype

I didnt jailbreak my iphone and I pay for most of my apps and im loving it.

Downside of iphone:
You cannot enjoy it without Internet....
I also own a samsung galaxy note and I love the stylus which lets me draw and shiitt.. but iphone dont got that.


I have tasted all worlds... android, ios, bb, and even lumia and I gotta say that ios trumps all others but I still got massive love for android devices. The rest na scrap....

Plus, I dont think any adult would think owning an iphone is a big deal. It does not provide any bragging right and shiiitt... ... only people with poverty mentality would show off with an iphone....

The day I was converted to an IPhone from Android was when I ran a particular game on my Htc same time with my cousin who uses an IPhone 4. The difference in gameplay was stunning I just had to switch. Today I have over 5 Apple products.

For brevity's sake, I will just list some of the features that makes me still to an IPhone 5 till date.

1. Screen: is simply stunning. Gorilla glass that is scratch resistant and displays vivid colours. Other phones that display same are quite few.

2. Compact size: why lug a 5" slate around when a 4" will do just fine and still packs enough features. It even makes the resolution better. This I have compared with note4 and Samsung Galxy S5 screens.

3. The processor handles anything. Fluid performance. Simply!

4. Apps? Enough! There are hardly any very interesting game on Android that's not present on Apple, IMHO though but I'm open to correction

5. Ease of use: ever wondered how Apple phones get to thrive with just one button? While Android still packs 3 till date.the gesture options are just more than enough and you get by anything easily.

6. Compatibility: I use Xender apps, use Vlc to download movies and music online: free.


Lastly, it's timeless, the same hardware design has been held for over 10 years, no need to upgrade each and every time, sell and resell, just upgrade software and you are good to go.

I'll stop here for now. Thanks
Jailbreaking is quite unnecessary if you really want to enjoy your iPhone

Iphones like any other phone out there has its advantages and disadvantages. There is no perfect phone and that is why research and development keeps taking a big chunk of money from tech companies.

Iphones don't lag, it has the simplest OS till date and its optimized in such a way that gives users an enjoyable experience.

The camera is one of the best in the world, the design and feel is one of the best too.

The only thing i have against Iphone is that its too pricey, Apple can control prices because they have the exclusive right to ios unlike android that google allows to be used by anyone who is ready to pay. This in my opinion is bad for competition and growth in the phone sector.
Because of this monopoly on the ios people see it as an exclusive thing of some sort.

I use an Iphone 5s and will be the one to tell you, if you want to enjoy your iphone, you need a system. Don't bother buying one without a system.
And its only people with poverty mentality that think owning an iphone means you are classy. Thats the most ridiculous thing i have heard. Of all things to brag about..

How did I forget, battery life is outstanding it just for texts but heavy browsing and wifi connection can take me a whole day. And I love the way it syncs all my notes, contacts, messages, mails etc across all IOS devices.
It's awesome

Reply = Lol. Many phones running Android have this

Point 2. Iphone camera can snap like 100 pics or even more in 30 seconds

Reply = The Samsung S6 is faster

Point 3. The deleted pictures are stored in a special fplder for 40 days.

Hailing = Oshey
Point 4. The finger print unlock system is very on point.

Reply = Same as a lot of others

Point 5. The games and app collection on the app store is topway better than that of android or bb

Reply = Most paid apps and games in the app store are free in play store

Point 6. The icloud storage guarantees unlimited storage capacity

Question = For free? grin

Point 7. I love music so I get them easily ffrom the itunes..

Reply = I use Spotify and Google Play Music in Nigeria, Thanks Android.

Point 8. I can have a discussion with siri...loool.....

Lol = Lol. Sweet

Point 9. The battery lasts if you use it just for calls and texts

Be serious = Battery is phone model specific and iPhone's aren't top


Conclusion = Plus, I dont think any adult would think owning an iphone is a big deal. It does not provide any bragging right and shiiitt... ... only people with poverty mentality would show off with an iphone...

Reply = Firstly, showing off is more of a personal behavior, you may like to show off while your brother may not. 2ndly, IPhone 6 cost more than Samsung Galaxy S6 but the S6 is better. IPhone is a big deal cause of branding and showing off, it's not poverty mentality abeg.

So many people talk sh!t about IOS because you haven't or have no money to purchase one. Talking from experience, I have use different mobile OS and currently using IOS. If you know about technology very well you will know that no mobile OS is compared to IOS. Ok let me give you one simple example because I won't like to sound complex. Let's look into FIFA15 you will see that in the game on any other mobile OS you can't play online season I mean playing with other people all over the world like PS3 while IOS is the only mobile OS you can play online game. Do you ever think why is that? Don't bother thinking that's why I said you will have to know more about technology.

IPhone is just for bragging rights, that's why apple only improves specs that are already for that, camera, screen size, fingerprint sensor. Nothing deep. Let someone step up and tell me something iPhone can do that other high end phones cannot do.

Lmaooooo. Why naw, you fall my hand. Firstly iOS is a poor OS compared to Android, always the same thing after every update and no top spec. 2ndly, online games can be played on Android!!!!!!!

I play Asphalt 8 online, I haven't tried FIFA online gaming but when I had it it worked well online. ( I'll download the game again cause of this). This online gaming isn't a point IMHO cause I've played real-time racing WITH PEOPLE ALL OVER THE WORLD.

A very valid poser tbh. However, you'd feel so if you're using just an iPhone - as a 'stand alone' - with no other Apple products (such as iPad, iWatch, MacBook, iPod). Then I must say you're doing it for just one reason: bragging.

If you've used BB before, you would know how shitty its OS is. iPhone OS is smooth, meaning you get to multitask with little or no hiccups/hanging n whatnot.

Moreover, it doesn't matter if you call my sim that's in my iPad, I can receive the call in my iPhone n vice-versa...+ FaceTime n iMessage are exclusive to only Apple product users. Good thing is, you don't need a pin to contact the other party - unlike BB phones. And just recently it launched a Music Library, comparable to none - not even Jay Z's Tidal comes close....

Not only that, every App on iPhone has an edge over other phones. They deliberately made that to maintain their lead in the market. Eg, Compare a BBM on a BB phone n on an iPhone...

That said, iProducts are a touch of class. And class, as in school, differs.

Lol. I needed something close to iPhone to compare. Certainly Android doesn't come close, since it uses more of an 'open source' OS unlike the BB n iPhones that use 'encrypted' systems.
