Personally, I think it lowers the value. I've had this phone for almost a year, and when I cracked it a second time, it worked better than the first. What the hell. And yet a girl that I know dropped her phone once, got a tinier crack, and now her phone is useless and staticky.
iPhones are better because they have the only manga app that has all the major series.

well...
Google Store has it too but they update it far less frequently. And that's saying something because they update the Apple one at most three times a year; I'm lucky if the update it twice.
CLARIFICATION: update as in updating the software, not refreshing the manga selection.
But srsly
I don't use smartphones for their full capabilities. I want good web access, my manga reader, some time-wasting apps (to pass time obviously) and that's pretty much it. I don't wanna root it and hack the white house with it or whatever fancy thing you can do.
And iPod touch was my first device ever; bought the iTouch 2 for $50 used five years ago, so it's the one I'm natively familiar with. Sort of like mac vs pc vs linux. You're best at what you started with, unless you dedicate time to practice in another. Or speaking any language. You're best in your native unless you dedicate (a lot of) time learning another.

I like how he says "you can go suck my dick" as if that's an insult, but technically he's inviting you to lick his tic tac. Heh.
Please go educate yourself. The A9 processor in the iPhone 6S slashes any android processor out there in single core performance. One core, of the dual core processor, is basically as good as a quad core android processor. The A9 chip out performs even the latest snapdragon 810 processor, which is an octa core processor. Android uses the core count and clock speeds to market their phones, but at the end of the day the amount of cores does not mean the processor is better. On top of all of that, Apple also optimize their OS to hardware, thus resulting in an even better performing smart phone.

Hahahaha who cares about the core power? It's the overall power that matters. And that's what android has. Overwhelming power. Give me sources that say the A9 is better than the 810 because all the benchmarks I've seen show quite the opposite. Also, if your dual core is so much better, why is your battery life so terrible?
Going off of very basic logic...
wouldn't more cores and multithreading mean LESS battery life? What the processor is doing with multiple cores is dealing with multiple tasks at the same time, whereas a single core only thinks about one task at a time.
No not necessarily. If the processor is made well then multiple cores can mean efficient dividing up of tasks which can very more efficient and way more powerful.
Not necessarily. If a more powerful system can get the job done sooner then it could be more efficient. Plus quality matters. I don't know every detail that goes into determining battery life, but you can check the stats for yourself. The majority of good android phones have way better battery life than iphones.
The Galaxy 5s' battery size is 2800 mAh.
Because the iPhone has a very specific and iconic shape for its chassis. You can't just dump more power into a battery, especially Li-ion batteries.
iPhone 6 battery is 1810 mAh. 6+ has a 2915 mAh.
Iconic shape? Listen to yourself. It changes every generation its not that iconic... And they're so obsessed with making it thinner that they sacrifice battery life to shave an extra mm off it.
iPhone 1-4 had a very constant shape. Starting from the 4s, they got rid of the round edges (thank god) and went to the sharp corners, then for some reason did something stupid with the 5c, and then from the 6 upwards are gonna do the shitty rounded corner thing again.
My point being that you can instantly tell an iPhone at a glance whereas SOME other phones have a pretty generic shape, such as an all screen thing with those invisible buttons to touch to go back and menu and home.

So what's your point? iPhone 5 battery is just over half the size of a Galaxy 5s. phonearena.com claims to have done a battery test by forcing various devices to run a custom script, with the results being the iphone 5s lasting 5h 2min and galaxy 5s lasting 7h 38min. Now, considering that the iphone battery is almost half the size, I think that's pretty good.
I agree that Apple has this weird obsession with thinness though. Pisses me off. I hate the look of the iPhone 6. It's like looking at a ferrari after a lambo. ugly.
I love how the Android is kinda like a mini touchscreen laptop but personally, I'd prefer Apple because they're less likely to get viruses than Androids.
I like apple products because of the continuity. From my iMac to MacBook to iPad to iPhone, I can stay in contact with people and access the same things on a similar UI. However, I still have an office issued blackberry because blackberry is best for Bloomberg.
iPhone is not that expensive anymore. If you look at the prices of all the new android phones like the new S6 edge or the sony xperia Z5. iPhone is better for a a couple of reasons, and android is better for a couple of reasons. I personally prefer iPhone, you can just feel that the phone was made with care and that every element was really well thought out and given consideration. I had a S6 edge, moved to iPhone shortly after since the phone was getting slow, and I have been using android all my live just btw, and now I look back and wonder why I was so blind to see how awesome iPhone really is.
You shouldn't have moved to ios from an s6. In fact you should have done the opposite. Your s6 should not have become slow. It must have been defective. And there are android phones with better build quality than iphones. Have you seen how iphones are made? It's about the least "made with care" phone out there. Apple literally put nets around their sweatshops to prevent all their workers from killing themselves when they tried to commit suicide.
Tuned Skyline vs. stock supercar.
If you have the money why not buy what you like? If you're poor then get something on Android and keep telling yourself it's comparable.
Yes, and you keep telling yourself its still 2008/2009 when Iphones were really better in ANY major soft- or hardware respect. "Technical" cause thats objectifiable. I get it when people say one or the other is cooler or nicer or whatever. Ok, there is one major advantage to an android: migrating your personal data and settings from the old phone to the new. Thats pretty much all thats left when you compare iphones and androids. And it doesn't help you when your old iphone is stolen or broken.
