Android in Decline?

Who cares? What do you think you're achieving by posting random **** off the internet? Do you think any Android owners who enjoy their devices are going to switch based on what some random on here says? Do you seriously think I value your input?
Why does it bother you so much people have different tastes to you that you have to constantly go on some crusade to bash their preferences in some weird attempt to prove you're right?
You'll either come back with some other screen shot of a random comment from somewhere or use your laughing emoji because you're not capable of anything else.
What bothers me is the false negative rubbish I keep hearing about iPhones ?♂️
As soon as someone mentions android many flaws, people like you go into defensive mode.
I don't go into defensive mode, I'm simply calling you out for trolling with random crap and blatant lies. Like when you falsely claimed iPhone has a 95/5 share in Australia. And didn't have an answer for your lie, so started coming out with stuff that doesn't belong in an adult conversation.
It just eats you up that not everyone shares your love of Apple. The amount of time and energy you waste on your hatred for Android/Samsung is equally astounding as it is funny.
jezzz ... Apple really has your panties in a knot eh? By reading only your posts you'd think the iPhone is the worst thing known to mankind. We get it , you had a bad experience, but your anti Apple tirade is so overblown. (Probably on purpose tho)

Disagree about iPhone cameras being for Instagram & TikTok. I recently got an 800mm x 600mm canvas print from a trip to New York. Carefully went through all my pics and chose one taken with an iPhone 7+ over ones taken with a Canon 7D. Anyone can take great shots with a smartphone, whether it be from an iPhone, Galaxy, Pixel or whatever else.
Samsung support v apple is rubbish, yet they still want similar dollars for their phones, no 14 day returns here, as someone who relies on their phone to run a business, i would rather use a throwaway Nokia 3210 than risk it with Samsung.
Yep, it’s laughable how Samsung can charge them prices for non existent support and limited software updates, legend has it people are still waiting on their carriers to push out the update. ?♂️?
Legendary support right there ??
Not true, the amount of people complaining about shutter lag on Samsung phones is off the charts, they get fed up with trying to take photos of their kids or pets, photos come out blurry most of the time because of Samsung long time camera problems.
'Android in decline'.
*sigh*
I think Android has been circling the drain for, like, YEARS...
I remember the crazy mess when vendors refused to allow updates of their 'gifts to humanity', and people were angry after buying a really cheap 'phone'. I laughed.
But at one time, there was nearly a dozen different versions of the Android OS. All named after sweet treats, as I remember, and I was getting kinda hungry reading the article. At least Apple does a fairly good job of herding people on to the next version of their OS. It improves security, and stability. Both important to everyone. But there will always be 'cheap phones' that will be magnets for spammers/hackers/resellers making huge markups on the junk.

Agree, don’t forget them hideous curved displays ?♂️
They bag apple about having a notch, yet their tab S8 ultra is going to have a notch. ?♂️?
So Samsung phones aren't capable of getting good photos? The only thing off the charts is the amount of **** you talk.
?♂️
People complaining about shutter lag every year doesn’t sound that great to be honest.
For a point and shoot camera Samsung phones are trash.
Watch your language please ?
I remember a neighbor who was pretty outrageous. She was so amazing, but she swore, and I looked shocked (fake!) and she came over and stuck her fingers in my ears. 'There, you don't have virgin ears anymore!' I was shocked, and then laughed so hard. I then said; I normally get dinner and a movie! 'HAH! Fat chance', she said, 'You're 15, it ain't happening.' We both laughed pretty hard at that.
She would be 80-ish now. Damn, I'm old...
Guess you’re lucky she didn’t stick her finger somewhere else ??I remember a neighbor who was pretty outrageous.

I've taken plenty of great shots with Samsung S/Notes and found the main camera great. I know all about the shutter lag some people experience in certain circumstances. But to simply label it as trash is just another lame put down. Anyone would think it takes awful pics 100% of the time the way you talk.
Anyway, enjoy your trolling.
Most likely there just to copy apple, won’t even have Face ID ?♂️?
Got to love Samsung with their bashing of apple when it comes to their marketing, then they copy exactly what apple does.
Everyone copies what Apple does. Even Microsoft with the rounded corners.
The reason is simple--Apple is the barometer everyone else follows, for better or worse. It's not stopping sales, so other OEMs would rather keep copying or risk falling behind.
When iOS 7 came out, if anyone had said 'flat UI is just a fad' it would mean EOL for whomever believed that, all opinions aside. Today, if Apple does it, you'd better believe others will, too. I don't like it, but it is what it is.

Samsung hasn't done an Apple-bashing commercial since the Galaxy S5 "Wall-huggers" advert in 2014. In fact, their more modern ads are closer to the Apple style, with music, no dialogue, and animations of multi-colored phones. If not for the 'Samsung' label at the end, I'd forgive someone for mistakening it for an Apple ad.
