Eh. Perhaps worth a flirt, but not worth sleeping with.

*plays hard to get*

I didn't include the likes of old Cryptopsy in my deserves-sleeping-with list, so it's a toughie.

This thread owns. Love you guys.

edit: any pricey smartphone is good, you can't go wrong with basically anything in the top tier, price-wise. SIII is great, iPhone 4S is great too (I would wait for the 5 as it has been mentioned)... Lumias are also great.

I just bought an HTC rezound and I really like it. But as you were saying, get the free Iphone if you can, but with the upgrade coming soon I would just wait. But if it's still free than the difference between a 4 and a 5 is for douchebags to notice.

Who's a bigger douche bag, the people who own iPhones and like apple? Or the massive group of people who make fun of people who like iPhones and other apple products? What makes one group better then the other?

What I dislike about people who buy Apple products is the fact that they can't buy anything else. They will buy Apple, no matter the price. Usually it has to do with wanting to be part of something, kind of like the post EBD made on the first page about Apple and religion, lol. Granted, the iPhone is a good phone, but is it worth its price? Probably not. iMacs are definitely not worth their price, and anyone who buys an iMac is either an idiot who cares more about brands than anything else, or someone who has already been indoctrinated into using OSX and thus is unable to learn anything slightly more complex.

I don't give a shit what people buy as long as they consider price vs quality, it just drives me insane when rational people tell me that they are seriously considering buying a mac. It's obvious that all they want is the fucking brand!

What I can't understand is why you people care so much about where other people spend their money on? If they want to pay for a Mac or a pc an iPhone or a Samsung. Who really cares? Let people buy what thy want, buy what you want and shut the fuck up. You can't control what other people want/buy so get over it. I didn't buy an iPhone because I'm a religious nut, or because I wan to fit in with some group, I bought an iPhone 4S because my mom got me a 3GS, I liked it but wanted an upgrade. I will most likely get a 5, but may wait for the 5S or whatever they plan on calling it.

I don't think either Apple fanboys or Apple-haters are as much of a cult as they're painted as, really. I have tried iPhone and iPod (gf has former, brother latter) and not got on with either as well as my Samsung. If asked, I recommend what works for me, same as everyone.

Hmmm... I like this thought of not giving a fuck what other people do, however, Apple fanboys let you know constantly just how much they love their apple products and they just can't "comprehend" how you would buy anything other than an Apple. Ex-gf of mine, for example, love her dearly but when she went to upgrade to a smartphone, she only did so because Verizon began selling the Iphone and she didn't look at anything else. She just went in and got an iphone. Not an isolated incident.

I recently bought a Lenovo laptop last winter. I was in a philosophy department of 10 people. 5 folks seriously interrogated me as to why I didn't buy an apple. Surprise! It was all the folks who own apples in the department.

As someone who used to be into IT, I got quickly tired of justifying why I prefer PC, which Apple fans might know if people who liked PC could equal their douchiness in harassing folks about what software and hardware they prefer to use.

Went and got myself a Galaxy SIII. 29 for the handset, 33 a month for 2000 minutes, 5000 texts, and unlimited internet for 2 years.

Any must-have apps to recommend?

I've had an iPhone 4 for just over a year now and I've been happy with it. I had an LG slider handset before that just kept dying on me. Verizon had me try three different refurbished LG handsets which all had their own issues or exhibited the same problem. That drove me toward the iPhone. We've had various versions of iPods and my wife bought me a Macbook Pro about two years ago so I was happy with the Apple products we owned. I can't give feedback on any other kind of 'smart-phone' because I've never used a different brand of 'smart-phone'.

I don't make judgements about the products that other people use because if it works for them, it's within their budget, and they're happy with it then who am I to criticize? I was extremely unhappy with my previous laptop that had Vista on it. There was too much lag time in loading anything, particularly the OS, it would constantly freeze up, plus the battery life on the thing was awful. My wife's company offers no interest computer loans so she bought me the Macbook. Again, the decision was based on the good experience we've had with previous Apple products. I also like the Cloud in regards to music.

I think the Apple drones take it too far in their fandom/dedication to the company. I've spoken with plenty of Apple Store sales people who have directed me to non-Apple products because the solution I was looking for could be found with a cheaper non-Apple product. I appreciated their honesty. Recently I've grown to universally hate smart-phones. I find them to be a constant distraction that is killing regular conversation. Plus, I've almost been seriously hurt or killed by drivers who are fkin' around with these things going down the road. Just make the phone call, get a blue-tooth ear gadget, but just talk! Stop texting while driving! I've seriously considered just going back to a tradition mobile phone that does nothing but make calls. Does that kind of handset even exist anymore?

Viber is useful for making free calls/chat messages if you spend a lot of time near wi-fi, other person has to have it too though. Amazon, Ebay and Odeon apps are all very useful. And the Opera Mobile browser is better than the default one, I find. Will post more if I think of any...

Get What's App.

Lets you sms for free over the internet with other What's App users (and pretty much everyone on android has it so it's useful).

Also get Sound Hound just coz it's cool. Listens to any music and tells you the artist/album/song of whatever it hears.

Google Skymap if you're into smoking and watching the stars.

And amazon price check if your phone can scan barcodes.
