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......

SGN4 !!! Thats a very good phone.Thumbs up

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

1. U want to tell me there is no time you made a selection in ur pjone and it tooks seconds before it responded? The more files and apps u have, the more seconds till ur phone begins to freeze

2. Its not my idea. Its fact. If you play the same game on iPhone on android. If iphone goes down by 5%, android would go down by 15%.

3. I onced used just 40 mb on an ipad, mtn 3G for 2 days. We all know thats impossible on android, and someone above said its because android offers better browsers abi internet experience? Now is there such thing as that? No. That is to show the level of ignorance im dealing with here. You tell me which browser on android is better than safari on ios? I dont come on nairaland to say what I like, ive never said what I like. I say what I experience.

4. Ever f.uking android phone ive held over heat after few minutes of use, it takes hours for an iphone to over heat.

5. Haba. To be a programer for apple and have your on the app store, you will have to pay a fee of $99. But android is completely free. Now with common sense which would have more crap in it store?



I had to re explain everything to u cos I believe youre a more experienced and reasonable person.

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.

Are u for real? Maybe u are talking about low and mid range android devices, or u probably think tecno is the pinnacle of android devices. Let's put it this way, get a high end android device like HTC one against the highest grade Blacberry and tell me which one lags or hangs more? I use an LG G3 and HTC one and I have never had to do a battery pull (my HTC one doesn't even have a removable battery and it has never hanged on me). I can't count the number of times people that use Blackberry around me have to pull their battery due to hanging.

runzlord:


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.

Again wrong information. Android phones come with high end processor like snapdragon 801 and ultra HD display. To compensate for that they have to include bigger batteries. My LG G3 has a QHD display (higher than 1080p) and a 3,000mah battery. The battery lasts me a day with moderate use. But tell me which phone would have a snapdragon 801 and QHD display that won't drain battery? Blackberry and Iphone users are known to be wall huggers. In fact android have been using 1080p display since 2013 while blackberry are just starting to make phones with 1080p screen.. android on the other hand are already moving to QHD. Motorolla moto droind turbo, Sony xperia z3, HTC one M8, Samsung galaxy note 4, one plus one, all have better batteries and screens than any blackberry and Iphone.

runzlord:


3. It drains data

This is the only place where blackberry outshines android and that is simply because data on Blackberry devices are compressed. But don't be deceived, data usage on blackberry 10 devices are almost the same on android devices. Also the same data u will use on android is the same u will use on iphone and windows phone provided u have the same applications on both phones.

runzlord:


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.

It is very normal for a processor to heat up while it is being used to its limit.. there's nothing strange about that. But I don't blame u, since u use blackberry and u don't have HD games like asphalt 8, NOVA etc u can't know. Blackberries don't have the power to play those games , trust me if u manage to put it in one it won't only heat up but it would explode. Iphones and windows phones also heat up while playing HD games or using processor demanding applications. Even a PS4 and Xbox one heat up while playing games.

op stop hating, ur argument is based on low end android phones.


1) get a phone with 2-3gb ram, it won't hang.

2) there are many android phones out there with good battery, u can play games for hours. only online games suck battery, same with ios


3) there are many ways to limit data consumption


4) I only experienced this once, I know what I did that caused this, and no phone wouldn't overheat in that condition


5) true, but its cos it allows app developers easily get their apps on playstore.

The latest Android phones have features that will make iphone inferior.

The speed on a phone depends on its RAM.

Most android games requires the use of internet which contributes to the power drainage.

All phones get hot based on the amount of apps that are running
.
To register on play store costs $25..
Re: 5 Major Disadvantages Of Android by Sibrah: 8:22pm On Jan 03, 2015
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.
