Samsung passes Apple in U.S. smartphone market - report

Never mind. These threads are always pointless. You have apple die hards and Samsung/android die hards. There's never a clear victor in these discussions.

lol. people are finally starting to see how apple is d!cking em..

release new version add one new feature that was very significant that shouldve been on the last version and charge full price on it. and when they couldve added more stuff to that version because its the standard, they wont but instead wait for the NEXT one to do the very same thing they did with the previous one. $$$

LTE, nfc, bigger screen. perhaps a more intuitive not ancient looking GUI, yea on the next one..

i mean how much to jump from a 16GB model to a 32GB model? compared to how much a 32GB microsd card cost? proprietary cable rendering the what people use to think was the standard "apple" cable useless or withotu buying and psending more for some type of adapter.

-----

Edit, on that note, IF the "new" iphone has nfc, bigger screen, maybe a better OS. i will consider getting one for the wifey to use. i think its essential to have at least 1 apple product around just in case.. and also for me to compare how inferior it is to the current "Poordroid"--as someone mentioned.. compares to it. :tongue:

So a survey that is conducted not long after the release of the new Samsung phone is supposed to accurately illustrate the buying trends of the smart phone industry?

The iPhone 5's been out since September 2012. Is anyone really expecting it to sell out its competitor which was released less than a full month ago? :lol:

Comical.

QFT. By hey a win is a win as far as they're concerned.
 
Word son really just did the worst comparison in life. Even side by side I don't spend hours on my phone watching flicks I have a tablet, TV and laptop for that. My smartphone is and will always be fore quick access to data. Lol a 5 inch screen isn't even sufficient to watch a 2 hr movie on
Okay well, that's you. I don't spend very much time at home, so my phone will have to do the job for me. I don't even have a laptop. Desktop >>>>> laptops. I am looking to get a tablet, though... And of course, the bigger the screen, the better, but that won't be my only factor. That's why I didn't get a Note 2.

LOL there is no correct answer, its just preference. how would an internet message board go about declaring a "clear victor" anyway?
 
VZW/ATT can boast fast data speeds, but unless you on some grandathered ish, its capped and throttled.

TMO probably has the best value. speeds aint as fast as VZW/ATT but its still pretty fast. esp with LTE launching. HSPA+/4G or whatever is steady average 12Mbps in the Bay Area, and LTE ive seen 20-30Mbps and they still have TRUE UNLIMITED DATA, $20/month

Sprint.. well its sprint lol they a joke in the bay area. boasting LTE but show tests of 6Mbps like its something to brag about

Tmobile is only good if it works in your area, thats every carrier essentially. I went to Tmobile for 1 month and it was the worst crap ever, pretty much only could use my phone outside, indoors the coverage was terrible, while my Verizon has been flawless and LTE literally everywhere I go even backwoods hick towns, I have LTE. I`d rather pay 110 for something that works then save 40 bucks and get something that works sometimes.

you do make a point-- a good one at that. i spend most of the time in CA where tmo signal is good. prob not the best, but good enough

verizon has been known to work in middle of no where america or hicksville TN, or any cracks and crevices

but again for those who stick in an area TMO has great coverage. its the best choice IMO.

you say you pay $110? for one line?

i pay that same amount for 4 lines, 2 of them with DATA plans (not true unlimited, but slowed down after 2GB bandwith, never go past it to warrant to get the $20 unlimiteD), free nights/weekends, unlimited txt, m2b etc. i think we share like 1500mins etc.

really hard to beat. so hard for me to justify going anywhere else but TMO unless i move to nowhere, USA this is before any corp discount too. i had att before and even with discount still didnt match. i do know someone also on VZW. he pays about what you said $110 just for his line on an iphone 4S. thing is he has the old grandfathered unlimited data he hardly uses it though ha

There both great phones but that s4 is going to freeze and lag after a while as for apple the os is so smooth and reliable u can have an iPhone for years and still work with no problems that why there resale value will always cost more then any smart phone

Apples iOs isnt made of fairydust. All operating systems bog down with age. As Apps advance, they become more system resource hungry. What slows down system is clutter from the applications being used over time, and space dwindling down. This occurs on every O/S.

I pay 128 for 2 lines. I don't have kids I just pay for me and my mom so price isnt a factor. If I had kids they would be on prepaid. Like I said unless I`m saying over 100 bucks I`m gonna pay for the best, I dont want to be in a situation where I need service/data and I dont have any. Like I said tmobile is the best situation for someone who doesnt travel, and it works in their city. Me working in the industry I know first hand VZW and ATT bought all the high quality LTE spectrum that penetrates walls best and left all the scraps to Sprint and Tmobile, and VZW has the biggest footprint, ATT is only rolling out LTE in major metro areas, and using HSPA+ everywhere else. From a data stance its not a big deal because HSPA+ is fast (idk how it handles highly congested areas such as sporting events, because3g technologies suck when there are alot of people, while LTE performs flawless.) But when that Voice over LTE starts to roll out VZW is gonna be leaps and bounds ahead of everyone. VZW will have the entire country covered in LTE and have more cities with LTE than ATT Sprint and Tmo have combined times 2.
 
Iphone Simplicity

Android Flexibility

Its all just a matter of preference for everyone. Simple as that folks
 
Upgraded from iPhone 4 to the S4 and I'm really enjoying the S4 and android side of things.

Would love to try the HTC One but Verizon gonna Verizon.

all this stuff is simple lol. Android and iOS will do the exact same thing for the avg customer, for regular customers it boils down to hardware such as build,camera, screen size.

When it comes to the techies you have 2 types. You have technies that like to change and customize every single factory of something, and you have techies who want something that simply just works and may be invested into the Apple ecosystem.
 
Apple phones been garbage...when u flossing

Clowns think cause they own a iPhone they magically get placed in a different tax bracket or some **** lol . The real #brokeboys get a iPhone to make them feel "successful" or part of something which is 90% of young adults who have iPhones . Dudes want to feel like their apart of some elite group or some ****
Really? Lol.... Tell us more O wise one....



Which guy smashed your mom while you filmed with his iPhone lol because you def have legitimate hurt feelings over something
