n01 fact is, ive used the phone you're currently using. n02 fact is, uve not used other platforms except from Android. You always think fish is the best until you taste chicken. n03 fact is it is pointless arguing with you cos you will never keep an open mind and face fact.
Lemme make this straight

I belive u use a high end phone
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?
Jesus Christ! Guy! U r the sickest, most ignorant f*ggot I've ever met in my entire life.

1. "You tell me which browser on android is better than safari on ios?". Do you know "Chrome"? Hw can you just make Dis baseless assumptions? Have you conducted any benchmark test between safari and say, chrome to spew dis rubbish?

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

Please have you used all the android phones (in the world) to come up with this conclusion? Why generalize, when many (different) vendors ship their devices with android OS?

Ur post is trash, factless. Make enough research first before dumping ur ignorance anywhere!

Peace...

big fat lie.
my gionee m2 doesnt heat up.
to control your data consumption, stop downloading and installing useless apps. also, update all your apps. use greenify to restrict data consumption.
as for gaming, i played pes 2014 on this fone for 1 hour. lost just 8% battery juice.
and for the record, my fone hanged just once, when i used a corrupt sd card.
so, op, your post should be titled.. "5 disadvantages of VERY cheap android phones" not the "os".... cos to me, android is the future of operating systems

If your data is draining, restrict background data,any phone over heats if pushed hard enough,and unless you are clueless,you should know that Play Store Apps are vetted and are Malware free,if you decide to download from 3rd party stores,which Google warns you against,you do so at your own risk..
guy u don't get what am saying as Nigerians we buy phone for chatting if u want to chat u can just on 2G or EDGE u can even browse with EDGE not some heavy sites because it will be rili slow to open eg of sites like that playstation site,so u just save urself a lot by using EDGE ur data and ba3 and as for the malware part hw will play store have malware ehn won't they have sue them unless maybe u are downloading from 3rd party store. Hw will play store have malware na wa oooo

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.
https://www.drawbacksof.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/08/url.jpg

"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.

OK sir,what I'm saying is android with an octacore processor and a 2GB+ RAM doesn't hang,its true I might not have used all but I'm just stating facts about what I use
thanks for your Honesty here, you only use Android of 512 Ram, try 3GB Ram + 4000Mah Bat3 and the heat is a "NO" all phones heat with heavy usage mostly when playing games but never experience heat with mine cuz I don't play games. Data consumption, I can help with that, when installing app always uncheck auto upgrade and for games and Barred non internet apps access to use the Network, and for Malware that's the only truth you wrote Awoof (free) dey purge belle, so go for official app not everything u see, eg Download Whatsapp not watsapp or wastapp or BBM instead of BBMessenger and u will see no bugs.

first i agree im ignorant... But see who is telling me that. Dude, chrome is not even the best browser on android! According to paper and benchmarks, its puffin and according to pratical perfomance its uc browser? So what are u sayin? Lets make a bet that safari on ios is better than chrome on android, 5k? Post u proffs and i would post mine, who wins send the money to the other ones acct.

2. Over heating, nigga asking me if ive used all the android in the world, u knw thats a st.upid question right? Yeah it means u are stu.pid. Most phones have the same specs, with diff design, even some devices of to day has related designs. See, since ive used the best, why would i use all? If u use tools to check the ip of that post u quoted, u will see galaxy grand so its also funny when niggas say im using cheap android. If i use a note 4 and it over heats, why would i go to check an ace 4 if it over heats again? Do U see ure dumb? Mtcheew who is the ignorant dude now.

dude, u opion is nt diff from mine, its against mine, when i started dealing with phones, im sure u were still using curve2.

i have about 400 apps on my phone I open at least 20 at a time, no hanging, no freezes, full multi tasking

I have used 15mb on my android phone for 3 days

Android has several browsers that trump safari...... And that's starting with chrome....

My phone doesn't heat up "maybe you need to hold better phones"

No fee for programmers is a marketing strategy...... If you are yet to notice, most apps you get for free on Android, you pay for them on ios



Finally I am still trying to understand the basis of your initial points

The OP is right to an extent, have used Samsung android devices, tecno and htc and to be honest they are nice phones but the data consumption, battery and heating is my drawback.

Now av decided to stick with q10 and am loving it. I don't av 2 spend much on data, d battery life is cool n I don't av to carry a BIG phone around

- "Most phones have the same specs, with diff design, even some devices of to day has related designs".
Ayaya!!!! Guy stop this na!!!! Have u designed a logic circuit before? Just because they have, so-called, same specs, does not mean there are arranged (hardware wise) in the same - and this greatly is an important factor.

- "See, since ive used the best, why would i use all? If u use tools to check the ip of that post u quoted, u will see galaxy grand".

Runzlord there are other high-end Android vendors in the world (HTC, Sony, LG, Huawei, etc.). Which body pronounced Samsung (the only smartphone u've used) the best smartphone in the android line?

My problem with ur post is u using an experience with just one android device to generalize, not only that, condemn an OS (as if it's the one making those devices). Okay, if you can get a Nexus device (which is made by google, just like iphone by apple) and then compare the experiences, I will be very glad to accept the results. The software only drives what she sees. If the hardware is configured wrong or poorly, then u develop issues. Get facts then u can post. Learn to do ur homework first b4 spewing sh*t.
