I fucking hate android so much. Should I bite the bullet and just get an Iphone? When will a viable 3rd alternative exist?

>he never felt the iMagic

just do it mane

just curious, what's wrong with android? i am on android 7 and it's lovely

>Should I bite the bullet and just get an Iphone?
Sure if you want to let Apple handle everything for you. You know the next iPhone won't have a headphone jack. Apple tells you what you want, and you obey.

>3rd alternative
Never.

Android isn't perfect but iPhones are worse. They're literally just fashion accessories for gays and teenage girls. They can barely function as a smartphone.

I regret getting mine. I fell for the hype and now that I realized everything wrong with it, I already missed my window for returning it.

Android is ok when you're poor and immature using it for: ricing for fun, sharing files like a good criminal and generally acting like a cYboR haCK3r with your redundant file browser and cli on a phone. Once you graduate to grown-up, non-neet status you get a comfy iPhone.

Maybe it's because I've only owned shitphones before. But I'm terribly afraid of spending $800+ in a high end phone only to be just as shit as the others I've had, considering that's how much I make in a month. I might just bet safer and buy a 6+

As opposed to Google?

>who cares
>nope
Do you have autism? Those are all problems I'm literally experiencing right now, you don't get the benefit of the doubt.

Grow up, OP. Get an iPhone

>grow up

Grown-ups occasionally have to do big-boy things like share PDFs and other files.

>Grow up, OP. Get an iPhone
Yeah, waste your hard earned money on something full of problems and tons of missing features.

Are you implying that somehow I cant share PDFs and other files from my iPhone? Lmao is this srs? get a load of this poorfag

Works fine over here breh. Must just be your murrican short-ass attention span.

>missing features
lel
Yes, if you are a kid and consider ricing a feature.

iPhone does literally anything a grown up smartphone user needs.

Enjoy going to XDA to get the latest software version of your pajeetOS

>what doesn't work
>you tell me

ITS A FEATURE

lmaoing @ poorfags

Just did a quick search, I frequently access network file shares and transfer contents to my device using FX. Did iOS ever get a proper file manager or is that still not allowed? Because that was a fairly basic functionality that iOS didn't support for some reason when I originally got into smartphones.

>You pay for quality
literally stopped reading there

You know it's true

I agree. Had a couple of android phones over the years and eventually got bored of ricing, modding etc. When I hear people say they can use an Android phone to torrent, or use a file browser on their phone, I think of retards that replaced their laptops with tablets when they were all the rage.

I just want a half decent, secure and supported phone that's got my back. iPhone does that.

>muh file sharing

Yeah m8, internet exists, dont know if someone told you already. You should check it out.

That's why my BMW broke down faster than my Toyota, right?

Yeah because nothing's better than transferring a file from the file server out to the internet and then to the Cellular Jews and the NSA, and then back down to my device when we're on the same god damned LAN.

Do you work in HR or something?

>da joos

Opinion discarded

tinfoil hats arrived

abandon thread

Can't wait for summer to end and iKiddies go back to middle school.

>stop liking what I dont like bwaaaaaaa

The actual kiddies are too busy sperging over rice and file browsers on their phones user

>You pay for quality
Not always.
>Who cares?
Literally not even a valid argument. So every point that includes that is invalid
>Shit res screen
Compared to other phones, definitely.
>Shit camera
Decent. Not great. Decent. Doesn't even compare to lg g5
>Shit battery life
Again, decent, but there are many phones that trump it for half the price.
>Shit mobile os
Look, I get some people appreciate iOS, that's great, more power to you. But you keep shilling iPhone as this one size fits all thing you keep saying. Talk to me when iOS has a functioning file system so i can share and view PDF, docx, txt, gif, and WebM without having to install third party software.
>Have to use latrines to access one
This is literally reason enough not to get an iPhone.
>Can't share jack shit over Bluetooth.
This is another reason I can't get an iPhone, I use this feature pretty often, i travel, and often need to quickly connect and share files with other people without having to go onto a computer.
>Good. Swiping is better
This isn't even a valid argument.
If you want an iPhone, get an iPhone, I just buy whatever happens to be on the shelf, has the best reviews, does everything i need to, at the lowest price.
Share PDFs WITHOUT third party software :^)

>Share PDFs WITHOUT third party software :^)
Why would I ever do that on purpose? Internet exists

>poordroidfags think more than 1080p on a phone is a good thing

Go back to play video games

As I said, I travel often, so I don't have internet 100% or the time. Once again, i reiterate my argument.
Without cloud software and third parties. Talk to me when you can share PDF on an iPhone.
:^)

>poorfag NEETs telling adults what is worth the money

kek

>I fucking hate android so much.

Why?

Sure there are many problems but the user experience gets better and better with each new release. Plus you can customize your phone the way you want, with absolute freedom

>Posted from budget galaxy device #643

>Talk to me when you can [perform random task that absolutely nobody bothers about] on an iPhone.

Talk to me when you get blue bubbles, you bottom feeder.

>you can customize your phone the way you want, with absolute freedom

I wish this meme died already. No it's fucking impossible. I'm a CS graduate and couldn't figure out how to install a custom rom on it. It used to be so easy in the early days of android but now everything it's locked down to shit.

>I'm a CS graduate
>couldn't figure out how to install a custom rom on it

That speaks leagues about how dumb you are.

...

>College grad
>CS
>too dumb to custom rom

Are you fucking kidding me?

...

>The color of messages is a fixed part of my phones operating system that i can't change.
>Its a feature

AWW MAN

LOOK HOW MANY CPU METERS I HAVE

LOOK AT ALL THE WIDGETS

I INSTALLED A NEW MOD ITS SO MUCH BETTER THAN STOCK ANDROID

OH MAN IM GONNA CUM AT MY HOME SCREEN

MY PHONE JUST CRASHED AGAIN THIS IS AWESOME


if these are the sentences you can easily see yourself saying in the future an android is for you.

If you just want a phone that works well that you don't have to spend hours configuring to be semi workable get an iphone

>Onlypretending.jpg

...

BTFO

but im talking about technology.

This

OP here. Android users are so fucking cancerous holy shit. Nobody cares fucking rice, and that's coming from a desktop Linux user.

I'm buying an iPhone tomorrow and shooting my android phone. Good riddance.

>iTard is so stupid he can't be given any freedom or he goes full autistic and can't just use a phone as it is
>has to be penned in like the babby he is and the playpen locked so he doesn't hurt himself

Unsurprising. Guess that's the same reason you scream in terror at two button mice.

I was in your position OP. Once you get used to not having irrelevant distractions, you appreciate that the iPhone is made to do its task well, instead of just cobbled together to milk idiots for advertising bucks then go to shit after a year.

I know. I don't fucking care bout rice or customization, or """"freedom"""" since all fucking smartphones are locked down to fuck. All I want is to be able to listen to music and read an article in the web without having everything crash.

it's either fastboot, adb or some manufacturer specific program like Odin mode

jesus fuck you are dumb. go on XDA and there are tons of guides to explain this

Owner of both here:

iPhone's shortcomings are eclipsed by it's UX. UX is an afterthought on Android. Once you get used to swiping to go back, Android's back button will seem fucking archaic. Almost every point in applememe.jpg can be negated by jailbreaking, though there is little reason to even bother these days. Files can be opened from one app to another, there is literally no need for a native browser (but if you like, you can install iFile/Filza.) Get over yourselves and realize that you have become the smug faggots that you claim to hate so much.

a good file manager that can also transfer files on lan without jailbreaking would be great.
also, can someone tell me if firefox for iphone supports ublock?
I haven't rooted or used shitty skins on android but simple things like drag and dropping files didn't used to work when i was using iphone 5. That used to waste so much of my time.

It's shit, everything is shit, life sucks

>using the smiley with a carat nose

we all know here that iphone user are retarded, stop feeding trolls and let the thread die

yes, smartphones are shit, but I want some shit that's at least somewhat usable

>unless I have full control over every aspect it isnt worth using.

Guess what faggot, I don't want to spend all day fucking around with my phone for it to be semi workable.

I have a job, a life, a girlfriend and shit to do. I dont stare at my phone for more than a minute at a time and I don't need "freedom".

But I guess you can install whatever rainmeter rice you like on your phone and torrent anime porn and it will keep your mind off your crippling autism and the lifelong loneliness that it has bestowed on you

>iTard is so stupid he can't be given any freedom or he goes full autistic and can't just use a phone as it is
>has to be penned in like the babby he is and the playpen locked so he doesn't hurt himself

Unsurprising. Guess that's the same reason you scream in terror at two button mice.

nearly every fucking phone priced above $200 is more than usable. How out of touch are you guys?

Good thing the Samsung S6 and S7 were of the same if not better quality.

How do androidfags find time to shitpost?

Shouldn't they busy downloading a custom picture viewer, file browser, phone app, contacts app, messenger, video player, rom, icon pack, launcher, kernel, widgets..

lel

>I don't want to spend all day fucking around with my phone for it to be semi workable.

This isnt true for any consumer phone you get from any telco. What the fuck are you looking at?

This guy is so bland his replies sound as if he is a bot. Or is it a 'droid'? Hehe!1

Which after a year becomes completely unusable

I know you are used to repeating actions for them to work on android so I am not surprised you literally just repeated yourself word for word.

Look at fucking posts like this
you have to follow guides and shit just to make your phone halfway decent

You know you cant. Every time someone says the word iPhone here poorfags get triggered so hard that they come force their shit on everyone because they cant deal with the fact some people can afford what is best.

kek

Don't forget the all important downloading torrents onto their fucking 256GB SDCARD! WOO

not really, you could just buy a chinkphone or nexus that has no manufacturer added bullshit

Android is the only "usable" sadly. Just get a iPhone if all you want is use popular apps.

WHATCHOUT

THIS GUYS HAS A FILE BROWSER

O N H I S P H O N E

HE IS A 1337H4X0R

You need to do exactly 0 of those things to have a usable phone. You are pretty deluded if you think otherwise.

>rom
>kernel

Let's hope this is bait

Does anyone else look forward to the following week when another devastating Android vulnerability that cannot be patched is spotted? I just love it.

okay. go ahead and tell me what does an iphone do that a nexus 6p can't.
The only people who should never consider android are those who use snapchat a lot because snapchat on android is not good but i thought everyone on here hated social media and apps like snapchat.

>day 1 patches on Nexus

Feels good

I only use the phone, browser, music app, Youtube, Netflix and the Uber partner app.

>b-but I need m-muh android
>muh watchdoges vidya

Pretty sure there are hundreds of level 10 vulnerabilities active on android right now. No need to wait.

try the OnePlus 3. Much cheaper than other flagships, sure, not quite as good in some ways, but you'll get a taste of what a high end Android phone is like. I think you'll like an iPhone if you get one after trying out a bunch of cheap Android, but not necessarily because you like iPhones more, just cause you're comparing shit Android vs muh premium Apple. It's like people who say their MacBook is so much better than Windows because they're comparing a $500 windows machine to a $2000 apple one

Get a iPhone then, you will be well served.

...

Yeah I had a nexus 5 for years it was a piece of trash.

Literally the default messaging app crashed at least 3 times a week. It would randomly disconnect from blutooth all the time. Google's native apps were all absolute shit that couldn't run worth shit on its flagship phones.

Snapchat matters to literally 90% of phone users so thats a pretty big deal.

maybe its just that I get laid on a daily basis and have a social life but having apps to communicate with people that actually work is important.

Faster, better apps, more fulid UI, consitent looking UI, supported for more time, better app store, more secure, etc..

>Literally the default messaging app crashed at least 3 times a week. It would randomly disconnect from blutooth all the time.


Just werks on my device. You must be doing something wrong :^)

My iPhone 6s is stuck in headphone mode after I connected to JBL Everest 100 bluetooth headphones. It won't play the internal speaker

I've done the obvious:

-turned off bluetooth

-hard reset

-reset settings

-restored as new phone

-connected to another bluetooth device

Before I take it to a service provider, are there any suggestions? I've only found a couple other scattered posts suggesting that connecting to a bluetooth audio device could cause this problem.

Have fun in 2 years when you are forced to buy a new phone due to Apple's planned obsolescence.

>muh anecdotal evidence

I want to know why I bought an $800 Apple iPhone 6 Plus 120gb for it to glitch out and completely stop working and there's absolutely nothing Apple can do?

At&t provides a service called the "next program" in which you can pay month to month for your bill without a 2 year contract and pay for your new phone, in my case a brand new iPhone 6 plus, with monthly payments as well. So I want to know why, after paying even more than market price because of interest, for an apple product, why in the world appl thinks it's ok for one of their products to glitch internally after no physical or internal accidental damage, there's nothing they can do besides offer me a new phone for $399. It's a problem with your software, Apple, replace this garbage you call a phone because you made a dud and I'll be damned if I get stuck with a phone that I can't use at all and out $800. Any suggestions?

>Have fun in 2 years when you are forced to buy a new phone due to Samsung's/LG's/HTC's planned obsolescence.

Have you even read? Everything is either fixed on the next day it was discovered or it's from third party apps.

iPhone 6 deleted all my texts, but storage is still high

Okay, so recently I was trying to update my iPhone 6 to the most recent update and it was continuously failing. So I cleared up a bit of storage by deleting some photos and then restarted my phone. When my phone turned back on, all of my texts were deleted. I was a bit upset at first because I have many texts saved, but I got over it after a couple of minutes. I then updated my iPhone successfully and not long after that I got the "storage is almost full" message, so I went to settings to check out what was taking up my storage. To my surprise, my messages were taking up 1.6 gb of my storage. I know for sure that this wasn't true because all my texts got deleted maybe 45 minutes before, and I definitely didn't get enough texts in that time span to take up 1.6 gb! I tried to backup my iPhone to my computer to see if that would change it but it didn't. Please help!
