I just got the G4 how is your battery life?
On a regular day its pretty bad. I had an iPhone 6+ and it would easily last me from 8am to 9 or 10pm without a problem. The G4 I have to lower the brightness and keep background stuff off to make it last from 8am to 4pm. I got a charger at work now so it's not a big deal but still, the battery life sucks. It does charge really fast though. I go from 0 to 100% in like an hour or so. Something like that. I had bad luck with Android phones before but this one has been really good. Personally I think this has the best UI of all the Android phones. I just prefer apple because I have a recording studio and am used to working on macs. It's a really good phone though. I reccomend it to anyone.

I know 60 fps is foreign concept to you cause you're a xbox1 stan but if you unlock the 60 fps option on the iphone 6 it kills the S6 video camera.. not even comparable actually.. looking at a recording on the S6 after using the 60 fps option on the iphone 6 will damn near hurt your eyes on how bad it looks :heh:

for whatever reason Apple has the option turned off to begin with, no idea why.. majority of people dont even know the option exists..



shyt will have you out here feeling like you a movie producer/director :ahh:

S6 takes better pictures in motion (like if a train was passing by and you were taking pictures) but your iphone 6 should take better focused pictures than the S6...But as far as video recording goes, the 60 fps option puts the iPhone way ahead

I'm new to the iPhone and had no idea about this.
:salute:

id rather be buried alive than to be on ios
As a current owner of both a Galaxy S6 and an iPhone 6S iOS is better. Buying that S6 was a mistake but I roll with it and use it as a backup phone / rainy day change out. App developers treat Android users like second class citizens. iOS apps are pretty much universally better, they get new versions first and get most apps first.

Sure you can do more on Android but that freedom comes at a price.

I've been rocking the G4 for a couple of months and you'd have to put a gun to my head to get this thing away from me. Superb battery and one of the best if not the best cameras out there.....well....maybe not since the new iPhone dropped but I'd stack up against any other cam with confidence. My only gripe with Android in the past was that lag, I haven't experienced that once with this G4. I just can't do phones without both removable batteries and sd cards. You can do away with one but not both of those for me and the G4 luckily has both. I'll probably stick with it for a good while.

Every phone I've had with a removable battery I've never taken the battery out. I don't usually keep a phone longer than a year now because past that point the resell value tanks and I always get the 128 GB model of whatever I can so storage isn't an issue. I have to try on purpose to fill 128 GBs. I have 93 GBs of music on my phone but if you count what I typically listen to it all actually fits on my 16 GB iPod Nano because my most listened to playlist sync to it as well

removable batteries and SD cards aren't really a big deal now that 128 GB model phones exist and chargers are so cheap.

I always wanted to try Windows mobile. I wish it would take off more so it'd be worth it.

As a lifelong GSDG member that finally converted over to iOS, this is true :ehh: There are still some things Android does better by far, but iOS does have the better experience.
