The point about dual core processor Androids is that it is innovative and manufacturers of Android are not following Apple's trend anymore. The iPhone may have the most apps but the majority of it is redundant and that goes the same for the Android market. Then Apple fan boys throw up fragmentations, the majority of Androids are 2.1 or later now. Sure some devices won't or can't be upgraded just like the iPhone 2s can't get iOS 4. Another note, 4G is growing and changing. It hasn't reached it maturity yet, and of the main complaints will be it'll drain battery power. Why? b/c that's one more radio frequency the phone has to use, until VoIP a la VoLTE or VoWiMax comes around in a few years. A 4G iPhone will have the same problem.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21270972.post-69949446329360305542011-01-11T19:31:59.420-05:002011-01-11T19:31:59.420-05:00ANON 5:34

According the Nielson research, iOS has now moved into the overall 1st place by 2.5%:<br /><br />http://www.readwriteweb.com/archives/apple_still_us_market_share_leader_in_smartphones.php<br /><br />They are also hemorrhaging market share on an almost daily basis. Less than 20% of smartphones sold in November were blackberry based, with 68% being Android and iOS.<br /><br />And for the record: 4G phones drain batteries MUCH faster than 3G phones. Add in the sporadic 4G coverage across the vast majority of the country and you have phones that can barely make it through the day on a charge.Dead Accounthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15186237597207121551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21270972.post-74146195981154845482011-01-11T19:10:46.078-05:002011-01-11T19:10:46.078-05:00@ 6:02

LG, Samsung, and Sony are not us based companies and provide even fewer US jobs. The vast majority of Apple's payroll and taxes are paid in the United States. If that doesn't make them an American Company I don't know what does. <br /><br />Before hurling insults at others, maybe you should stop and think a little more about your overly simplistic view of modern business.Dead Accounthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15186237597207121551noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21270972.post-44919865989245241922011-01-11T18:02:16.075-05:002011-01-11T18:02:16.075-05:00My favorite comment, from 12:33pm, on this tread i...My favorite comment, from 12:33pm, on this tread is the guy/gal who's main reason for liking the iPhone better is because Apple is "an American company." Hey genius, the phone is made by Foxconn, a Chinese company, for Apple. It's not as though hard working American men and women whistling "God Bless America" are assembling these things in a swank factory in Cupertino. I'm not debating the merits of this type of outsourcing by the way.

Sure the Android phones released since the iPhone 4 was released last June are going to have better specs and features...that's how technology works! Google and device makers do this every year. They wait for Apple to introduce a product, copy and tweak it and act like they've reinvented the wheel. Same goes for the iPhoen, iPad, Mac, iPod. You can thank Apple for actually being innovative and introducing these products. <br /><br />As for the idiots on here braggin about dual core processors and 4G devices, please shut up! Both of these have just been released and LTE won't be avaiable to the masses for another year. <br /><br />Some people will just continue to hate without knowing what they are really talking about!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21270972.post-88891992353185460952011-01-11T14:41:05.213-05:002011-01-11T14:41:05.213-05:00Why purchase a phone that's already obsolete? ...Why purchase a phone that's already obsolete?

Team Android is leading the innovative technology for phones now. Dual core processor phone much? The thing is, the top end Androids use as much data as the iPhone so VZW could easily handle the incoming iPhone users. However, the current limitation of CDMA is not being able to do simultaneous data and voice services, so the next iPhone from VZW will either be VoLTE or LTE for date and the new CDMA standard, SVDO/1X Advanced which allows simultaneous voice and data.
