Gist me because I have an iPhone junked with my Dstv decoder... Gathering dust somewhere
While my Lumia Windows Phone is tickling me to no end

So stick with that as long as you're happy.

A phone is just a tool.

Of course but I become puzzled when I see the craze and hype for iPhone so I had to create the thread to learn if there's anything I am missing by junking the iPhone

ExInferis:


Yeah.

You may not like the iPhone (some days i dont either), but it set the gold standard to which every other phone is trying to live up to. It may not have the best specs, but that's because it doesnt need to. With just a dual core processor and 1gb of RAM, the iPhone 6 outclasses octacore'd and 4 gb'd android beasts touting 20mp cameras.

in 2007, the first iphone changed the mobile landscape with an intuitive UI, powerful OS, great design, advanced sensors, great apps, desktop class wifi and browser and full HTML email. They laughed at the lack of bluetooth FTP, 3G, etc.

Today the iphone is the most profitable smartphone in the planet, and still going strong. No company can match Apple's profits, not even samsung which is selling fewer and fewer devices since the Galaxy S5. Indeed, no OEM made any profits this year on android. The design choices of iphone that were lampooned (sealed battery, lack of external storage, etc) are now almost universal design principles of high ends, even samsung.

So your comparison should've been between iOS and Android devices, not Windows mobile, which is soon going either IoT, or extinct.

And that's a wrap.

Ahaahaa yes nw, if you have seen them arguing before ehn, they are always shouting and trying to force you to believe that their iphone beats other phones ,now tell me when you spend alot of calories shouting how that person go fat if I dey lie go look at steve jobs pictures

The truth of the matter is only an iphone user knows the sweetness of an iphone. It doesn't freezes like android, iphone security is second to non, when a thief steals iphone with an iCloud account he will easily be recognized anywhere as a thief and the phone with not be useful to him cos it cannot be unlocked. Even the premium feel of an iPhone in your palm cannot be compared to any polycarbonate android phone. The App Store is more richer in apps than play store. When you jailbreak an iphone the types of tweaks u can download i doubt if u can get them from android. Iphones have second hand value when u want to resell it unlike android phones that might make u cry when u want to dispose it cos of d price fall. iPhones are classy! Yes classy, if u r not up to the game u cannot use it. iPhones gives room for privacy where u don't want to share your pictures unlike android where every tom, dick n harry can pick your phone and start sharing your pictures n videos. Android are full of bloatwares, when they hand at times you have to do battery pull but I've never seen the battery of an iphone before cos it never even hangs.

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....

High end expensive androids can do all that.
The other advantages you listed are also obtainable.

Wetin consign me

Ndababa:
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.

I was thinking the exact same thing. I use mine in conjunction with my macbook.

how do u explain ,when the other party has no experience.. first of all get one for ur self,,connect to the internet..n see it for ur self..that's if u can afford it..stop saying things u don't know, n an iPhone got xenda, so u can actually share videos, mp3 n pics with any android phone..

For the fact that people are discussing about it already proves how important it is, I don't intend or have passion to buy any other phone since I have been using I phone over 1 year now and its the only phone that appreciates with time, go and ask for the screen of any I phone now and compare it to 2 months back, and lastly it's the only phone so far that if you buy newly and register your unique name on I cloud no one can steal your phone and if they do you will always get it back. And it's not mistake that it's expensive than other phones with it's capacity and capabilities and it's processing is the fastest so far, and the best brains in the world of mobile techs are the engineers behind the design and build up of I phone.

I'm not going to justify why I'be had every single iPhone from the beginning. I have the 6+ now with 128gb.

I also have an iMac, iPad, 2 or 3 iPods in my cars and MacBook Air. As you can see I'm indebted to the iOs platform and for my own reasons.

Just pick the platform that works for you.

Oh yeah I tried the Note3 and that is gathering dust somewhere as it wasn't as expected.

Justifying is the essence of the thread....

laivwire:
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

GREAT!! - SIMPLE!!! ....SO therefore, if they can't beat them they should join them!

This is one mature comment even though I don't dig iPhone one inch. I hate to be restricted.

Pete, pls take it easy with this guys, the main headaches (Sony fanboys) will need your attention soon

iOS is one operating system that is very sophisticated. There is hardly any application that is not on the iOS platform. The Games are of the best. iPhone has one of the most interesting browsers, the Safari. With my Siri, i can do some little search. The iPhone offers comfortability and ease. The iCloud is dope, you can off Gigabytes to store your data in a fascinating way. I could remember while I was preparing for my Geology field work, we needed a GPS to use, all I needed to do was to download a GPS cum compass which did all we wanted on the field, including my pacing, strike and dip etc, while my Android-user friends couldn't get a working digital compass on the Android Store. Y'all should better be apprised of the way things are trending and evolving. iOS is dope!

Total Northernization is the way! Nigeria must have a similar ideology, Nigeria must speak with one voice, Nigeria must be homogenous, Nigeria must be Northernize! Northernization is not equal to Islamization, Northernization is not equal to Hausa- Fulani. Northernization is for anyone, Any tribes, Everyone who wants to cooperate with the strongest power in Africa, It is a balance between the West (Britain/America) and the Middle East powers(Saudi Arabia/Iran). You can't win against Northernization, Rather than fighting against it fight for your stake and benefit in it. Just like what the Western powers are doing in the Iranian deal, and what Black Americans did in America. There are tired of fighting against it, they rather seek to benefit from it.

You can say that again. Iphone is purely rubbish. I'm glued to BlackBerry, anyway. I do a lot with my BlackBerry. It's my mobile office, intimate companion and my Internet dongle. I do millions of Naira worth of business with it annually. I receive and send a lot of emails daily via my BlackBerry. With the hotspot, I always stay connected to my laptop and browse endlessly. I share files seamlessly too. Iphone cannot give me all these benefits. I don't BBM, except when I'm less busy and idle.

My brother I've used iPhone 5s and that was last year. The phone was as good as nothing except for the "brag" oh boy...... See your iPhone!.... Nothing else.
To get an apple I d is another money.
Majority of the app has price tag. Battery life is nothing. Now I'm using Sony Xperia Z3 and i love it. Although the phone is 9months old, immediately the lollipop version of Android came on board it became new again and Sony sent a notification and a link for my to upgrade my phone.

Aside that, the phone is water and dust resistant and i've used it to make calls under the rain and have even gone swimming with the phone inside the pool.
So tell me
What has iPhone got to offer?

Sometimes, I do wash my phone when it gets dirty.

Please iPhone users can you wash your phone?

Although Iphone is a great phone particularly in protecting personal data. They have tons of great apps even android can't run. The problem is that it works best in the U.S because they are facilitated with tools that help you enjoy your iPhone.. but here in Nigeria? Naaah
Just for big boys big gals.. they don't maximize the use of the phone except those that had to jailbreak the phone to access the inaccessible.

My opinion. Let's hear others

You are DaBoss

I will give you only one of the things Iphone does and when you get another phone that does that you can come back for the second lesson.

I once stood at the front desk of Etisalat experience center at Allen avenue with my iPhone 5. Their service was horribly slow so typed a text on my phone which reads "YOUR SERVICE IS TOO SLOW", copied and paste to fill the whole page and then sent about 10copies to their printer that was on the Wifi. I was being attended to when one of their staffs came with the printouts to ask his colleagues who sent the printout. I actually went there to buy an Nano sim (iphone being the first phone to use it).

In my Office in Ikeja GRA then, our office was using a duplex building. Instead of climbing the stairs with my Laptop to connect to the printer stationed upstairs before printing a 300page proposal sent to me for printing, I will access my mail on my Iphone and send the document to the printer's WiFi while doing other things on my laptop without leaving my desk until after some minutes that I believe the documents must have been printed completely.

When you get another phone that does something similar, come for a second class.
