So..
My boyfriend came home with an ipod touch. He is going on and on about all of the amazing vintage video recording and other apps that are iphone exclusive....
He is as tech savvy as I... yet now has changed his opinion on the superior operating system (Me: that's great, but you have to admit, android is much better. Him: no, I don't...) !!! GAH!!!
GRUMP GRUMP GRUMP!
What's a girl to do?
;P
Idk but i like em both equally.
Show him something he can't do, like live wallpapers, different launchers, ... You know what Android can do.
This post changes everything. Again.
Theres is only one thing that u as a female andoid user have to do! No more loving for him until he blends that ipod
No seriously, for me as i use a DHD dolby mobile and srs are great features but i dont know if the ipod also has those features, if not thats a big advantage for me...
burn it into a fire!!
ask him something that the ipod can and the android cant.
he will see there is nothing like that,
Dump his ass.lol.jks

Time to upgrade the bf to a newer model. Sakai4eva is a lovely bloke and you'll never hear him praising an idevice.
Snap his [delete line?]black ops disc[/delete line] *insert whatever here* till he changes his mind
btw whats the code for that strikethrough/ delete/ whatever line on a typical forum?
Yeah... what a ****.
Show him rooting. Custom themes, full control over software and hardware. Make. Him. Your. *****.
Dump him. Date me
I like ipod for my music and 64gb is nice the apps and touch screen were just a bonus
This post is brought to u by my pet giraffe who ran away and FOUND!!! Just have to rade another pet to get him back
My girlfriend got screwed over Apple and I helped her transition to Android and my MP3 player of choice, a Cowon J3. She loves her Captivate and J3 as much as I do.

I know everything that Android can do (obviously, I'm on XDA!) but I just prefer iOS for unknown reasons. It's just it does everything I want my phone to do, nice and simply. Also I just like the jailbreaking ability tbh. But I still love Android and everything about it.
The thing about themes, iOS is 1millionX better for theming whoever said show him themes on a rooted phone. It's all in a simple app store too instead of having to make sure a theme is compatible with your ROM etc.
If it's only an iPod Touch, then let him be. Just laugh at him for not having an iPhone.
But seriously - just show him rooting and like OC'ing your phone and just like fun little things that'll make him get an Android phone. Idk.
get pregnant. that'll show him.
You can always microwave that ipod
Leave him crapple products are lame!

"Play on it" 'accidently' drop it down the toilet then get him a Glaxy Player or something a
I had an iPhone before I bought the Inspire. Now I just use it to play music and Tiny Wings. Android>iPhone though
There is only one option....leave him for someone who loves Android as much as you. It's obvious that you guys can't be together as you don't have this in common...it's a must! He's gone to the dark side and MUST be slain!

Seriously other companies don't have the rich assortment of nouns, pronouns, cute misspellings, adverbs, verbs, and adjectives that Samsung has. I go to this site when I want to have a good laugh, seriously I was making some pretty funny jokes with these names. http://www.gsmarena.com/samsung-phones-9.php
Very strange names... I liked This one...
Just like anything else, they're running out of names.
what jokes did you make related to samsung phones name?
The funniest names IMHO are from HTC...
I didn't notice.. Dunno, they're not anything special.. I agree with gcogger, HTC is maybe funnier
But may we still hear some jokes?
Like most phone manufacturers that come up with funky names.
seems there are funny name everywhere, for websites, Android sys, phones and even for baby. aha...
Now i am using Sumsung Moment, love the feeling: living in the moment.
Galaxy S/Galaxy Ace
Treaky no ? They certainly surfing on the popularity of the first (sorry for my bad english - I was a lazy student).
Samsung Conquer, Samsung Attain, LG Gelato.
WTF...
Moment
Samsung Moment i had nothing but bad moments with the moment went through alot of moments finally droped the moment.
Can't remember what they were, so I'll make one up now. Hey watch out, that guy is throwing a Shark 2 at you! Hold on a Samsung Moment, I can slow it down with my Gravity T! At one point I was making Kayne West and Taylor Swift jokes, forgot what I said though.
They call it a Moment because it only lasts a moment. Too bad you didn't get the Samsung Forever, that would have been a much better deal!
I beat DJ with my UltraTOUCH!

I think Samsung's idiocy when it comes to their flagship phone is HUGELY annoying. Samsung Galaxy S (or S II) and Samsung Galaxy Ace? I used to think that my brother got himself a really good deal with his phone, but I just realized it was just a... lower-end Andy...
HTC's choice with the Desire isn't helping either.

With Samsung, they have had the whole alphabet soup of galaxy A, B, C, D, ect in Korea. S made them global. Now they are building on the series name with calling it all a galaxy something.

If they continue... Anyway, I really hate the "S" suffix behind the model names.
If you hold a Galaxy S, you have an @$$ fit for an entire galaxy.
If you hold an Incredible S, wow, it's just an incredible @$$.
If you hold a Desire S, well, you have an @$$ that I really desire to tap.

Hey everyone!
Just curious about something: I recently purchased a tab P1010L, and to my surprise, it's basically just a big phone. I'm fine with that, you know? But I was expecting to get some Gingerbread love for Google Talk and you know, MAYBE USE THE FRICKIN' FFC that comes with it, since Qik, Tango and Fring all work like crap if at all.
So really, I'm wondering how come there's nothing on the P1010 anywhere on the web? Like no active development, no custom ROMs, no dedicated forums... just... nothing. Or maybe I just haven't found such a place yet? If so, please do tell.
WHY is the Wi-Fi Only Tab such an outcast for devs? It's a cheaper device with no contracts attached to it, so why don't devs work on it?
because its only WIFI , almost ppl have GSM tab And VRN thats all
with wifi why you should even bother yourself to custom rom for it , if its only got 1 mission to go with ( WIFI only ) serfing the internet thats all
you shouldn't buy the wifi only

That's dumb. I carry a phone with me that is perfectly capable of tethering to my Tablet and that way I can have the best of both worlds. Your argument is absolutely silly.
Why would you pay for *two* contracts, phone and tablet, instead of just one?
Also, saying that Wi-Fi is only for browsing the internet is plain silly. What about video chat? Games? production apps? I'm sorry, but I rather keep the *phone* part on, you know, my actualy phone.
Is there anyone else willing to shed light into this, but this time with some semblance of logic?

woh !! why you take it so deeply ?
i just give my opinion about the WIFI only tab , Surfing the internet its also mean you can chat , do whatever by using the internet
i'm using my tab as a phone and tablet , but if you asked anyone what brand of tab you'll buy sure will go for the GSM tabs because it have alot of options and roms to flash
anyways i'm sorry i didn't mean to be an A***hole about your tab feelings

You didn't hurt my feelings, but you came off a bit thick-headed. Most people don't normally use their tab as a phone, considering you cannot carry it in a pocket or a suit. Sure, non-working people may carry rucksacks with them at all times and use silly Bluetooth headsets, but normal folk? Nope.
Sure, I can understand having more options, but there's *plenty* of tabs out there that don't have GSM modules yet they have development. I didn't figure a Galaxy Tab, which is arguably one of the most popular tabs out there, would not have any development at all for one of its branches.

the tab can fit in my back pocket and yeah maybe its wiredo that carrying headset bluetooth all the time , that is why i'm not using them anymore
even though if you are business man , or anything , you should wear formula to your work (jacket) so its very possible that the tab fit inside the jacket pocket right and it will look more *SEXY* with bluetooth headset
because almost the business man wearing it
but you right there is not dev for the wifi tab and that's so wired
Same concern here. I was surprised by the lack of interest
with community development for the P1010. So now, I'm
starting to wonder whether could I shell out few more grand
to have my P1010 replaced with P1000. Just not sure if I
can do that, otherwise I'm stuck with P1010 so might as well
maximize what I can with it...
I'm still hoping and looking forward to community support
in the coming months though. Let's hope the awesome
developers at XDA finds interest with it.
in the same place with you all brother. my biggest problem is video with skype. I know there's a hacked one already (link) but there are issues with rotation that are still awaiting resolution. i heard that skype video calling works just fine in p1000 running on gingerbread and hence the frustration of upgrading to gingerbread.
another frustrated P1010 user
i got a cheap offer for this tablet and since the name wasn't that far from its older brother (Galaxy Tab P1000> Galaxy Tab P1010), i assume the news on Gingerbread also meant for the P1010 and not just P1000. now i'm stuck on Froyo.. anyone heard any rumours on Gingerbread coming to P1010? i just want to have skype FFC video chat
You should know that there are many countries in which you could get the p1000 WITHOUT contract. Price was 350 vs 300 euro at the time I bought mine.
The p1000 has better a cpu core, sgx core and better bluetooth, thats why I chose it over the p1000, even if I didnt plan to use a sim card back then.
This might be a reason for p1000 vs p1010 sales at least here in europe...

So i went out and bought an iphone 4s...
here is a quick comparison between this phone and my android galaxy s2
first of all, camera on the ip4s is lightyears beyond the sgs2... samsungs are simply cheap in my opinion. but thats just me.
phone has way more apps than android, and better quality too. that was a nice upgrade
The touch screen (although incredibly small) is way more responsive, and has way better color, and a lot sharper. This was noticeable. The difference was night and day. All android phones seems to has this problem though.. not good color. :/
And siri is amazing. I can’t believe how smart this application is…. Cutting edge. I wish my sgs2 had something similar built in.
The speaker quality on the ear piece and the loud speaker were also superior quality.
The radios also are better than any android phone I have ever used. No LOS!
My final verdict is android needs to step up their game. Sure the new ICS phone is coming out, but it will still lag! It irritates me that I have been missing out for so long on all the freedom and variety of apps available with iOS!!
anybody else have a similar experience?
don’t turn this into a flame thread either.

If you are looking for a similar experience how about you check out 1 of the other 50 threads on the topic. You obviously don't know much with your title (compare to my droid). Droid is a branding used by verizon. Android is an operating system. Great story though.

If you don't want to make this into a flame thread that is next to impossible. Firstly almost the entire populace here hates the iPhone, or just apple. Secondly, whilst i will belive some of your points and they are valid, the others are downright trollish. e.g. "Sure the new ICS phone is coming out, but it will still lag!", have you ever used a galaxy nexus? Have you ever used ICS? If not, then why the heck do you have such an idea of which you have no basis of experience from?
I doubt it will lag seeing as i own a sgs 2 and this thing can't lagg on me. So why should a galaxy nexus with "better" firmware and practically equivalent hardware lagg?
Point being, all i see this thread as is a way to start a flame war.

Why would we? It looks like you're already trying so hard!
Lots of your points just don't make any sense. Especially things like saying the colours look better on an iPhone than on Super AMOLED Plus. Isn't that the main selling feature of the Amoled displays?
Anways, glad you're happy with your purchase. Not too glad that you cannot compare phones at all. But hey, you win some you lose some.
Agreed. I too have an SGS II and to say it's laggy is silly. The SGS II is the fastest phone to date. It was rated #1 device on Consumer Reports and Editor's Choice on a well known web site. This guy's post made me laugh so hard I spilled my coffee. Seeing the words freedom and IOS in the same sentence is histerical.

Pipsqueak approved this message
I though it sucked really bad. Not only it is lame but it rarely talks about the device itself and they kind of abused their simple idea which was used for the Galaxy S II.
An ad like this one would've worked like magic:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pvUK2VmbO2I
But unfortunately, this just comes to show how corporate Samsung ruins simple ideas for the money. I bet all what they were thinking about was spending more money to justify the spots costs, while completely ignoring that simple is what works these days.

I liked the ad a lot.
A. It had the song "I Believe in a Thing Called Love," by The Darkness (LOVE THAT SONG).
B. It had Brian Urlacher
C. It had Miranda Kerr (YES!)
D. It showed the 2 MAIN features of the phone which truly distinguishes it from the iPhone - the 5.3" screen and the stylus without being over-technical. If you ever watch iPhone ads, they are never over-technical and focus more on design and simplicity, which Samsung must do to appeal to the non-techie masses. Have you ever seen an iPhone TV ad stating what speed is the processor or how many megapixels is the camera?
No, but they do show it actually being used for something other than dancing around in the street. You can show real-life usability without being too technical.

They did show usability:
1. How you can annotate Google Maps using the S-Pen
2. How you can do video chat (just like the iPhone) but without being on WiFi only.
3. How you can take a photo and doodle on the pic directly (in this case Brian Urlacher autographing is picture).

I'm USA people and I thought it was weird. I thought it did a poor job of selling the product. Instead of trying to knock Apple they should have focused on the next big thing and backed that up with the features. Either that or stick to knocking Apple. To many messages in too short a time presented with far too much ado.
I liked it. It wasn't the best but I guess that's the best it gets from Samsung?
