This is a lie from the pit of hell. Samsung still won the best customer care support last year
You argue way too emotional when there isn't need. I don't know what award Samsung won last year but I'm using experiences over the years as well as even android faithfuls. Calling Apple support has been satisfactory for me than visiting Samsung centers in Nigeria.


This is another lie. Easy with them, when was the last time iphone had the best camera. S7 and Google Pixels trumps I7 in photography. Android is the simplest OS to use. You can do everything on android from the control center. Never on iOS. Everyphone lags. iOS is more integrated. Facetime isn't better than Duo, Samsung browser is better and faster than safari. Who cares about iCloud when there are plethora of alternatives from Dropbox to onedrive, Google drive et al
I don't know how simplistic use of iOS and best camera are related.

Never said no phone lags. I said it's less on iOS

Never said which app is better. I was talking about the iOS that's more integrated. Safari's integration with the os makes it more secure, its relation with other apps is futuristic. I even enjoy Google's chrome on iOS than on my android.
iCloud and Google drive shouldn't be in the same sentence lol. One is primarily storage while the Other's versatility (backups, storage, wallet, notes, security) is top class


It's a USA company but that doesn't make it more premium. Anybody uses iPhone.

Yes it has helped them but it doesn't equate to premium
I can get used S7 or even refurbished for $300 on eBay. I would have to kill someone for $400 for an iPhone 6s let alone a 7 . If that isn't premium, I don't know what else is

They roll out updates to old phones in order to crash them. Updates on Android aren't as important as it is on iOS cos Android is already loaded. Lollipop got features iOS10.3.1 doesn't have. Using a samsung add more icing to the cake.
Your posts are sentimental. How does updating a 5 year old phone every time translate to crashes? Or how does one stuck on lollipop make a case for updates? I am not understanding




S7 has a better camera, better design. It's got headphone jack, wireless charging, fast charging, better battery, amongst other things. Matter of fact, S7 won the best phone of 2016.
Still biased. I don't know how this helps s7 price of $300 beat the premium prices of iPhones.

Better design? Subjective

Better camera? Subjective in a long shot. Sure s7 has the better low light photos, DR and autofocus and Iphone 7 better portrait but all these are on auto modes. Using manual modes on your exposure settings minimizes these differences. Shooting in RAW and Lightroom processing eliminates every other.

Better battery? Still subjective. Some sites have both on various positions. It's the consumer's phone usage pattern that matters. The only constant thing is web browsing metric which puts iPhone 7 slightly on top. Still, it doesn't factor others like streaming, always on, gaming, camera usage, etc

Fast charging, wireless charging and headphone jacks are great add ons for S7 and android in particular. But it doesn't help in keeping their prices up unlike their Apple counterparts.

Cheers

That's where you continued getting milked. Apple isn't in his own class. If you want iOS, u can only get that using iPhone or iPad.

Apple prices will surely crash further if iOS was open source or iPhone run on droid. IPhone 7 cost more than Samsung S7 yet S7 cost more to produce than iphone 7 and it trumps i7
What does being in its own class mean then?

The monopoly helps Apple keeps its price up but that's not the only factor:

1) The close source helps keep the phone at a premium. Everything on iOS requires you to purchase at some point. You may spend more on music alone than what you paid for the phone. Hence, premium

2)Apple makes one or two phones a year. They don't select classes. Samsung on the other hand still roll out phones in the $300 bracket. That gives customers a wide range to select from androids. That's why a huge market share for Samsung aren't the S or Note series.

3) Apple rolls out updates to phones released ages ago. Iphone 5 of 2012 still gets iOS 10 updates. S6 in Nigeria hasn't seen Nougat yet. Hence, premium

4) Apple has the best customer care system in the world. Though, they aren't in Nigeria but this is still a fair point

5)IOS is the Canon of photography, straight to the point. Simplistic, less lags, little battery drain Also, they have the best social media environment from their keyboard to integrated apps, FaceTime, Safari and their ICloud. iCloud makes everything premium

6) Apple is USA, the market leader in influencing a product. Every major celeb even in Nigeria and everywhere uses an Apple device. Music videos, movies, mirror selfies na Apple. That makes the niche more premium

It doesn't have to be iOS monopoly alone.

And s7 doesn't trump Iphone 7 and vice versa. They're just in a league of their own.

There's a caveat, a 1cm scratch that's barely visible. You can't see it indoors, just outside. Really, you can't see it.

Slightly negotiable
No swaps

Celebrities › Re: P'square’s ‘Bank Alert’ Video Gets Over A Million Youtube Views In 5 Days by Anopheles: 6:50pm On Sep 22, 2016
safarigirl:
compare both videos in one month. He released his video a day after theirs, not 2 days.

Diamond is the best thing East Africa can brag about so we understand your excitement. Holler at me when he hits 10 million views without featuring a Nigerian act.

Mayorkun hit 1 million in 3 days BTW, what do his views look like today?

Please don't mention IG...we may have to combine Peter and Paul's followers for that and I'm sure they will exceed Diamond's....

Posers everywhere
Go check YouTube, September 16th and 18th don't sound like 24 hours to me

@bolded. Now you're just being silly. You should rather have said you don't follow Diamond. Imagine...

Lastly, most people following Peter will follow Paul. It's logic.

safarigirl:
Rihanna released a song on same day P-square released Bank Alert, as at the time they hit 1million she was still on 700k, does your logic make sense to you?

P-Square and Diamond are not mates. Compare the wide-faced nigga with his mates

Only one P-square song has more views than all of Diamond's songs combined
I knew someone would come up with a masturbatory comment cheesy

Please, abeg, ejoor, which video did Rihanna release in September 2016? cheesy
Even her VMAs performance on her channel has 4m+

Whether you like it or not, Diamond is the new kid on the block, the wave of the moment. He's the African celebrity with the highest followers on IG (alongside Davido of course).

What he's achieved in his short time, P square never did when they started. Nobody is hating on Psquare. They're Africa's biggest exports but Diamond is chasing them like say tomorrow no dey. Diamond now has the second highest subscribed channel on YouTube behind the twins, under 4 years, babe.

Even Davido's vixen, Dreymo abi na wetin had 1m views in 7 days, Tiwa's interview in 5 days. So what's special about the twins that it graced fp?

2 shocking facts:
Diamond's new video appeared 2 days after Bank Alert but more views
We're in 2016. Stop relying on 2013 to drive home opinions

P square still king though cool

LadyMercedes:
What are you saying? undecided

My point is, iPhones will ALWAYS be available! Why queue for days, when some time in a week or so, you can walk into any Apple Store and freaking buy one?
Lol. Most people in queue are reviewers, critics, channel owners. They have to be there to generate more traffic and also to release timely opinions to their subscribers

I didn't hear where any of the contestant said something about supporting abortion. Mimzy and Mysticgal only said the decision is up to the victim and her decision shouldn't be influenced by them, the counselor. I'm pretty sure you've not met a counselor before or been one. They both gave the best answers.

Anyway I vote for Mimzy
