The HTC M9 Engadget review makes me remember why im back on the iPhone train

[The Phoenix]

I bought a macbook and iphone because of the apple ecosystem

That's anecdotal evidence. And that is how the whole ecosystem thing became a talking point. But they sell way too many iPhones and there are way too many Windows machines out there for that to be the main reason, or even the secondary reason that people are buying iPhones. Culture and quality probably have more to do with it than any other reason.

you cant download music off the net with an iphone?...

Yes u can..liquid is talking about iOS from years ago I don't know where that came from. You just can't do it using safari.

 

[Demonic Jenkins]

Yes but gotta be jailbroken

Lol this isn't true. You can use the downloads app and download music....no jailbreak needed. You just have to use downloads on music player and browser. People jailbreak to get from from safari or use the music app that comes with the phone.

I tweak with my phone because I like customization. I like options...something you iPlebs don't know nothing about

I have a gs5 and a iphone 6.

List of phones I've owned within the last 10-12years

IPhone 3G
IPhone 3GS
iPhone 4
Galaxy nexus
Gs2
Gs3
Note 3
Gs5
Iphone6
Nexus 4


....I know plenty about both platforms...I've ownes more android phones than iPhones so......I get a new phone annually.

The Nexus 6 camera is good. It beat the 6 plus in a blind test.

Not in action. Android cameras don't take pictures immediately at all times...one of the things I hate...missing good moments because of the hang up before the picture taking. Had this problem with my note and every Galaxy I've ever owned. I'd be out taking pics and come home to see half of them blurry or just missing quick pictures because of that delay. I've yet to own a android phone that PERFORMS a better . Now of course...if you have plenty of time to take a picture then yea...there are nice android cameras that can take great pics. My gs5 takes great pictures when the situation allows you to take your time.

Can you easily obtain videos or mp3 files? Or are you going to hop onto the jailbreaking argument again? Which contradicts your ease of use argument btw. Can you expand storage if needed?

Android = PC in your pocket
iOS and WP8 = limited in many ways

That's your answer...you really don't have much of an argument and have been treading back and forth with the same BS for years. I will consider the camera as an argument, but the truth is that many of these top of the line phones have decent to great cameras...people aren't buying these phones to take professional shots with them. For the most part they all suffice.

Actually, it's quite easy to download files such as MP3 and MP4 on the iPhone given the right browser..no jail breaking needed

Why can't we just download zip files and upload it to google play or spotify.

nikka NO ONE SAID THE MAIN REASON PPL BUY IPHONES IS CAUSE OF THE ECOSYSTEM

Why would you wanna upload to spotify LOL

 

[NatiboyB]

Why would you wanna upload to spotify LOL

A lot of music I listen to is mixtapes and things like that and usually I can't find it in Spotify...So I upload an album to my playlist...With GP I can just download the music and upload it to GP all on the phone but that's with Droid.

There are no times I can remember wanting to download a file and upload to google play on my cellular connection vs my computer...

I spend a lot of time away from my laptop or home in places where I can't lug around a laptop so I have to use my phone to do a lot.
