Typical iPhone user

Had a lady come into my workplace (where we sell ATT, Sprint and T-Mobile) and told me that her iPhone 3gs, that she had on T-Mobile prepaid, could not make phone calls. I told her to just take out the battery and put it back in. She didn't know how to do it and demanded that I do it for her. Since she didn't buy the phone from us, I didn't want to risk damaging the phone, and because I was busy with other ACTUAL customers, I told her that i was unable to do it. She then claimed that because I couldn't open an iPhone, my store must be "technologically behind" and that I was slow and wouldnt understand how to use something like an iPhone. Skipping the part where I embarrassed her by showing how my HTC inspire dominates, I am just pointing out how she is an average iPhone user.
Me: "do you have a smart phone?"
IPhone user: " pfft.. no. I have an iPhone."
Rage.

I can show all of them my rooted phone and they still just look at me like, "your point?, it's not an iPhone"

Yes. She was already giving me a hard time so I figured I'd give her an impossible task.
Also, when I told her that we WERE in fact technologically "ahead", I showed her the android phones (including mine).
She responded with "I have an android too, but it ain't no iPhone."
That's when she whipped out a Rumor Touch on Virgin Mobile. *Shoots self

Haha it could have been an Ally. In that case you would shoot her first then yourself

i think most ppl have heard of it but anyways:
a (swedish?) study pointed out, that a lot of these apple-fanatics show the same symptoms as ppl diagnosed with the stockholm syndrome. they defend their iphone against any kind of criticism and are somewhat deaf for reasonable arguments like the iphone having no extendable storage, removeable battery, supports no flash and so on...
have to say that not only iphone users show these symptoms but also nearly any person being strongly fond of one of their posessions (car, hifi etc).
the iphone is a nice device but way too expensive and i rather stick with a phone i have more control over.
but i dig my ipod+itunes. works great.

An actual conversation that I had with an iPhone user:
iPhone user: What is that, an iPhone?
Me: No. It's an HD2.
iPhone user: Oh. My iPhone can probably do more than that thing.
Me: Oh really?
iP user: Yes.
Me: Can it turn into a WiFi hotspot?
iP: Yes. But I have to pay more for it.
Me: But can it run another OS?
iP: no

Goodbye

After 14+ long months, I am finally leaving the Evo and Android for good. I gave it two shots (G1 and Evo), and both times it was underwhelming. I actually preferred the experience I had with the G1 than I did with the Evo.

You guys are insane someone can't say they're leaving for an iphone because they're automatically flamed and obviously stupid. I like android but I prefer ios. Yet I'm still here. Android just seems to be all over the place and all unorganized right now. It seems like I get a new phone and the week after that a new much better phone is released and our is outdated. There's also the issue where some apps don't work on some phones because of the hardware or some other bull excuse like they did with netflix. We get dumbed down apps all the time. Like they don't even care about us android users. I still love android I just wish it was better.

Your comparing software to hardware. Android ****s on ios? Is that what you mean?
If I had to weigh in I would say that neither is better, tho ios even tho stole the notification system, implemented it better then android. That's neither here nor there. I say they each offer a different user experience, yes you can get great battery life, after an android phone gets rooted and modified. Tho I have yet to be able to watch looped video on my evo for 7 hours straight...
I think the main difference is the app store, android users are cheap as ****. They will use warez, they will not donate(I'm speaking generally). So better support and better apps make their way to ios first. Yes we have the same apps on android but android fragmented system is ****ed up. I love android, but reguardless how you look at it. They are different. Really don't think people should get all pissy about it. Crazy how some people act towards another human just because they like a different phone. I think our priorities are messed up.

Why iPhone 4s sells to almost 2 million over the weekend?

How that happened? 2 million or 5 million? If that is true Android is way out of Apple's league.

dude.. it didn't sell about 2 million... iPhone 4S sold more than 4 million units in the first 3 days..
see here:
http://www.gsmarena.com/apple_and_samsung_break_their_own_sales_records-news-3277.php

I have no idea what that first post is even supposed to mean.

Because its a great device that meets and surpasses the needs of many... can't believe that's a serious question. .trollololol.

Why when someone mention iPhone android owner bash them. But clearly iPhone is better than android?

It's a functional device out of the box. The general population doesn't have the time to root and customize their device and flash ROMs. They don't care about "making it their own". They just want a fast and functional device without any tweaking.
It's a walled garden...sure...but most people don't care.

It sells 2 million in a weekend for many reasons. First. and foremost it has a large fan population, hence a population who are dedicated to the iOS. Two. the delaying of announcement has increased the fan base's anxiety and desire for the iPhone hence sudden burst in demand.
And why do Android users hate iPhone users? From the same reason you think iOS is the best. The same mindless people in both groups. It is the most narrow minded and uninformative statement which shows your level of knowledge and understanding of software or comparing things at hand.
No software is the best, best is dependent on the situation at hand. Yes they may have an advantage over another in certain areas, but it ends there, still a stalemate. You think i should get a cashier or a barcode scanner system for a lemonade stand because it offers the best management system on stock? No im wastingmoney on something I'm only doing today, get the point? f not I'll elaborate even more with my post below. Btw english does not seem to be your first language so I apologize if you cannot understand it.
Oki so now lets put iOS in the hands of someone who knows his way around UIs. Think he's gonna enjoy the simplicity iOS over the functionality of Android? Why not ask the forum if you can't think of the answer.
Now do you think a beginner computer user would prefer android? Judging from your perspective you'd say no, and I completely agree with you. A beginner would not even think of pressing a arrow pointing up or a three row and column square as the app drawer. All from my experience with my friends.
Get the point now?

Because they all are islaves man! There coming to get the rest of the world! Lol

To circumvent stupidity I'm just reposting the post I made in a similar thread.
Just because you're fanboys doesn't justify blindness... Unless you're blind fanboys and in that case why do you have a touch screen phone?
jokes aside, iPhone doesn't sell strictly by brand. It is a device who's hardware (not internals but aesthetics) are unrivaled aside from a tiny screen. The build quality is superb and doesn't feel like it was haphazardly glued together like HTC devices or like Mattel built them like Samsung devices. The only hardware company that rivaled iphone's build quality is Nokia and they're onboard with WP7. Next, the OS is infinitely more fluid than android. On average an android device on the UI runs around 22-27 fps where iOS is a steady 60 as far back as the 3gs. It's optimized for it's superb hardware and it shows. Next, fragmentation isn't an issue. I can play infinity blade on a 3gs just as well as a 4gs and 2 years in the real world is like a century in the tech world. Overall it is a higher quality product for gaming, media, and basic phone functions. If you only get your phones to mod then android is for you but for quality, WP7 or iOS.

who cares why they sold more. Who cares why they are considered best. Lets allow windows and and android to exist. I have my reasons for preferring android. but lets consider for a moment how many jobs These devices create. Lets also consider the choices the devices provide.
If the iphone and Ios are the best why doesnt every other maker give up. We really only need one phone right. Cases will make them look different and Apple can decide when we upgrade. Sounds like a great idea to me.

Are all iPhone users kind of uppity? My neighbors just upgraded and think their crap smells sweeter than most.

It makes a lot of since to have have both apple or both android. You can use your purchased apps on both devices from the same company. But you can't use your ios apps on your android and your android apps on ios. You would have to buy them all over again.

That display is really something to behold. Never seen anything like it before. Would I buy one? Nope. Would I buy an Android tablet? Nope. I have 0 use for both of them at this point.

Your view on bb10?

So blackberry 10 was just released. What are your thoughts on the z10 and the q10?
I think the z10 runs on a snapdragon s4 plus and has 2 gigs of ram with a 720p 4.2 inch display(355ppi). The q10 might have similar ram+processor but i think the screen has a smaller and obviously it wont have as many pixels.
It is definitely capable of competing with some new phones IMO. But that's not why i created this thread. I want to see your thoughts.
Sent from my HTC Sensation using Tapatalk 2

Correction: the Z10 runs on the OMAP 4470. The Q10 shares the same specs sans screen-estate.
I really don't like hardware-whores who are downplaying the Z10 purely based on the OMAP. Which is ironic seeing as how Google phones are a success because of their software. (with the exception being the Nexus 4).
The Z10 could be a success depending on how well they innovate in the OS. When I first heard that unlocking the screen could be as simple as double-tapping: I was impressed in the same way a small rock that ripples can become a large splash in constructive interference. The specs are basically mid-range at this point, but then again, so is the iPhone 4 too (and that has 512 RAM). Difference being that the iPhone 4 still performs as smoothly and gracefully for all its intents/purposes and its audience. I think the Z10 was designed with that kind of mindset. When a phone feels smooth enough, when the phone does everything you need it to do: maybe you but most people won't care what's under the screen.
We're seeing the move away from removable batteries, Micro-SD slots, and smaller screens. Personally, the direction the industry is going (as evident by the Nexus 4) dissuades people like me from upgrading. I don't need a huge-ass 4.7+ screen, I love the comfort and convenience of flash cards, and removable batteries, I definitely like the square-like aesthetics of the Z10 versus the general trend of bar-soaps.
While I'm not in a hurry to get a Z10, I will closely follow the news surrounding it. The BB10 OS is what will really make the Z10 shine but it's a double-edged sword if it subpar: much like the Windows Phones. But so far, feature-wise, I think the Z10 has its bases covered.

I like. Looks like a huge comeback for Blackberry.

BB was a wonderful device,
now it just looks like a modded version of android,
they should have focused more on business and government consumers rather than the mainstream market

BlackBerry Exchange Server, or BES costing $99 plus fees AND no compatibility with legacy devices is killer. BlackBerry should know better when there are other cheaper options out there. As for the OS, it still feels extremely business oriented which is a great thing. I own a Galaxy S III right now, but I would purchase a Z10 to have as my secondary business phone. It's the right size, the specs don't have to be spectacular as with older versions of the OS it's hardware integrated and it's styling is better than most Android devices out there. I think it will overtake Windows in terms of Market share but won't be as successful as Android or iOS devices.

New competitors are a good thing. Old ones trying to make a come back will just leave early adopters with unsupported devices. Anyone who really thinks rebranding and 2 mildly competitive flagship phones is enough to save RIM (now Blackberry) is delusional.
