Iphone 6 coming out end of year.

Apple Inc.’s rumored iPhone 6 is now expected to carry an even smaller frame as the company focuses more on slim contours, a move that raises the difficulty level for component makers as they reduce the thickness of battery pack, CNET reported.

I'm hearing more power, slimmer design, and a few surprises. Can't wait

iPhones are already too small for me to consider getting one.

They'll just be thinner; your sausage fingers will appreciate the larger screen size(s).

Thats my big deal with iphones. Just holding them they are to small for me.
 
I think I'll be eligible for an upgrade when it comes out! Hope it doesn't suck >.>
 
Keys, phone and change . . . hate them in my pockets. Less keys, small phone and give away change is how I compensate.

I do enjoy a bigger screen so it is a balance of small phone with big screen, but the iPhone works well for what I want. My little gift to my self is when a new version of the iPhone comes out.
 
Iphone, holy shit they better make something good so I don't have to laugh at all the fan boys again. I am waaaaaaaay late to the phone industry and my girlfriend already had an Iphone.

I didn't even want one except to text her then I got an android................different league completely.

Media consumption differs according to platform, a study by the Reynolds Journalism Institute has found. This is also influenced by demographics, including age, education and earning capacity. In the recently-released 2012 RJI Mobile Media News Consumption Survey, researchers have determined that Apple iPhone users are generally older, better-educated and earn higher than those using Android. This may account for Apple’s market dominance over Android since the beginning.



Also while android is catching up in sales, profit per unit is dominated by apple . . . I think it's apple who is laughing.

Coke products are still outselling Pepsi products also.

I'd laugh my ass off too if I could sucker millions of people into buying an inferior phone because of the name.

In Vegas my girlfriend's Iphone shuts itself down due to the heat. My Note 3 sits in a bodyshop that is usually over 100 in the summer wrapped in a stocking cap to protect it from dust and never gets hot.
 
Without checking I think you described Judge Judy's demographic...not sure how that makes her Breaking Bad?

Well that's one reason to buy a android over an iPhone

Just a matter of preference, but I don't think either company is fooling anyone. Apple is a much better run company, but the phones are just a matter of what you want. Heat tolerance seems to be your criteria :)

Yep. I know a lot of people that love their galaxy and others that love their iPhone. Which one is a better phone depends on what each person wants.

I want something something small sturdy (don't like plastic phones) that is simple and intuitive. The iPhone fits what I'm looking for. Can't wait for the iPhone 6.
 
Every thing in own is apple. MacBooks, home computers, family iPads, phones, iPods. I love how easy they are to use and all sync up flawlessly.

I assume the Android users who are on here bashing the iPhone also own PCs?


Sent from my baller ass iPhone 5S...... FAMS!

My PC is upstairs. I have used it once this year. I know you have no idea what a Note3 is like but I need nothing else. I don't even need my frikking big screen tv. I can watch flawless 1080 video on my phone. If I hold it 2 feet from my face it is the same size as my 55 inch tv is from my couch.

I could rig a simple holder to keep it still while sitting if I needed to. I have a nice case with a fold out stand so I can watch it in bed, with my kicker amphitheater via bluetooth it sounds fabulous.
 
By the way, I had to edit my girlfriend's contacts in "the cloud"

Fuck apple, the only way I found to delete them was using the actual delete button on the keyboard. They make such easy stuff so difficult for some reason.

You've got serious apple issues . . . also known as: inferior phone complex :devilwink:
 
No, every time my girlfriend logged in to Itunes for 6th months it said her password was wrong. I know it wasn't, I would change it, log in and out then it would be wrong.
It stopped doing that finally. Don't know why. Maybe by 2020 they will fix the text glitch that they know is their fault. I doubt it.

That's rich though about inferior phones, did you read the link I posted?

Tell you what, I'll match you link for link:

I've really got nothing against the galaxy. A poster just told me the other day they were thinking about getting a galaxy and what did I think, I said "I don't have one but hear people love their galaxy"

I think it is a preference choice. I'm also not that into this apple vs samsung thing. I enjoy toys so love when the latest version comes out, but I can't say that I am a phone master and can say without a doubt what phone is better and why.

As soon as I am having major problems with my iPhone, I don't think I would hesitate to switch over. Samsung is certainly catching up in market share and heard it is easy to switch over.

But right now I like the size, sturdiness and convenience iPhone offers ( like HCP, my whole network at home is apple).

What I don't get is your insistence on what a superior phone galaxy is when each phone offers different features and the choice depends on what you want from your phone.

You sure do like the fact that old rich people who want a phone that works better with their new BMW because of a specific app choose the Iphone. You got me there.

I would drop my Note3 in a heartbeat for any brand phone if it were better. There just isn't one right now.

Iphone fanboys wouldn't even look at another phone.

The article you linked made me laugh when he mentioned wired and bluetooth in the car. I have a cheap pioneer stereo in my car with a mic and play slacker over bluetooth and talk on the phone hands free. Why would I care about wires?
