:francis: More processing power, more battery drain. Batteries die and non-removable backs are hard as hell to open i.e. LG G2

How are you not even sure why it's an issue? I can see you not using the option but you don't see WHY it's an issue? :stopitslime:
This aint the 90s :dead: My phone has a quad core 2.2 GHz processor, 2GB RAM, 720p screen and a fixed battery.... charge lasts for 2 days.

Im not saying it doesnt happen, just that it's not as common anymore. Nor does it affect performance

How often do ppl really need their batteries replaced though?
I've NEVER needed a new battery...ever. NO lie. And most ppl I talk to and deal with are the same.
I think its just more of a marketing or bragging point that ppl were using against iphones than anything else.

Maybe if I kept the same phone for longer than 2 years it might be an issue, but most ppl like myself replace it 2 years or less.

You never know :mjcry:

I got over it too... one thing I am adamant about though is removable memory. I know mfers who are PROUD to pay for the data to access their own shyt from the cloud :dead:
well you DO pay for memory cards...so you are still paying for storage.

But I can understand this more than the battery thing. To me its never really been to big of an issue. I did have a memory stick in my S4 before though.

With Google Drive, Drop Box, plus other free cloud services(google music was kinda dope) .
most of my storage is a few apps, a few playlists and some pics.

I have a 64 GB iphone right now with about 20 used

ITunes:scust:

My god I hate that shyt

One reason why I can't go back to the iPhone.... Why should I jailbreak a phone when Android does all that shyt out the box?
not sure whyt he hate with iTunes. I really like it. I have every single album created as a playlist. all in Artist play list folders.
I have hundred of iTunes playlist all divided up by genre, decade, artist

its really easy to deal like that. It took me a while to finally do it, but now its just easy to maintain

I even used it with Google music and it syncd well

Aint shyt free bruh. U have to pay for data. Even with Apple's rip off prices it pays off in the long run if u have a lot of stuff or burn through data. I watch videos and listen to music and podcasts all day..... cloud shyt would kill me

My wife has the edge. Her camera is easily better than my iPhone 6.

But everything else is :scust:

She's been complaining talking about how she shoulda got a iPhone.
WHATS HER complaint? because yall do realize these phones do the exact same things. UNLESS we're talking about a NOTE 5. thats a work/productivity phone.

It does too much, not streamlined like the iPhone.

She's getting notifications from everywhere. Widgets and shyt in the way. The home screen has some apps, but then she has to go into the app screen for the rest of them.

The messages screen is confusing and the translated voice mail is trash.

Camera quits working at low battery. Battery life sucks

no one that isnt shooting video or using their phone as a camera to use pics on their blog or trying to take semi pro pics to make $$$, needs a phone with 64gb. whats going on is this, yall dont like to delete stuff you no longer use. so instead you want to have more space so you never have to delete anything(hoarder..lol.)

all she has to do is turn off the notifications. that was the first thing i did. you can move your widgets around anyway you like. thats on you. the home screen isnt supposed to fill in ALL of your apps. its supposed to be there for your most used goto apps.

for instance. mines are voice mail(i aint never going to use that stupid video voice crap from verizon stop trying to steal from people lol, and i aint using that voice to text crap, that tech isnt spot on yet anyway with no phone."

so i got my favorite so i can get straight to my regular voice mail. more like a link icon named voice mail. the default stuff obviously phone/contacts, my google maps, and a few other things i used on the regular basis. the scroll over screens, its my 2nd tier of most used apps. after that. any thing else i think i might use on occasion goes in the normal app area where you can pull that up by hitting apps. now if you are hell bent on having ALL of your apps in the scroll over screen from the default home screen. then start using folders. just move stuff in together and name the folder something you so you can remember whats in there. it aint hard at all and takes seconds to do. if you're really lazy go find an app that will organize the stuff for you.

once you do it once you dont have to do it again.

anyone complaining about any of these $200+ smart phones at this point is just complaining to complain. UNLESS you're really using it for work purposes. most people arent. most folks are making calls, listening to music, watching movies, surfacing the net, and perhaps tracking their workouts, and taking selfies and a few nature shots. i mean lets be honest. we aint doing that much with these phones. do we really need 200 apps? NO. we need like 10 to 20 solid apps and thats about it. do we need 60+ gigs of space? NO. get those pics off the phone and upload them to the cloud or put them on your computer/laptop. and empty your phone folder so you can have space again.
