Can't believe the event is only 1hr 20mins away after months and months of discussions, rumours and waiting.
finally! we can see which "rumors" and "leaks" were bogus or on point.
YAY let's get all excited for new features other phones have had for ages lol
YAY let’s post sarcastic digs which ignore the fact that even if Apple is late to the party, it ALWAYS brings the party with it.
Apple is not always first, but it’s rarely not best.
Doesn't matter, it isn't a race! also those other phones aren't iPhone's.
Except these features will be well thought out and properly implemented.
I would rather have a feature on my iPhone than beta test it on an Android device which will turn to **** within less than a year. But hey, whatever works for you
More like a year and a half, if i recall iphone 8/x rumors have been out since before the iphone 7 even launched haha
Really ha so wireless charging will be available from day 1I would rather have a feature on my iPhone than beta test it on an Android device which will turn to **** within less than a year. But hey, whatever works for you
What I find interesting, is those that criticize Apple for adding features that Android had first (even if it was never perfected on Android), obviously forgetting that all other modern smart phone OS's copied Apple's original iOS.
The thing is, Android devices have some extra features but at the end of the day they aren't useful for me. Something everyone always brings up is the split screen multitasking on the phones, honestly I never used it on my S6 Edge since it just never seemed useful. For the people who need something like that, Android is for them. Meanwhile iPhone's have always been able to do everything I need from a phone.
Weird logic. So,
- iPhone comes with X number of features
- Galaxy comes with the same number of features + Y number of extra features and goodies
How is buying a Galaxy over iPhone bad? No one is forcing you to use the Y features, plus there's no harm in having Y features that you may potentially end up using in the future for some reason.
You're literally complaining about having extra features. Sure, you may not end up using it now, but who knows you may need it in the future? Also, if you don't want to use it, well, don't use it!
Because Galaxy's always end up lagging. Sure my 6S Plus has lagged on occasion, but the difference is it doesn't do it all the time in my most used applications. Android isn't worth extra features to me.
I don't think anyone is saying there is something wrong with buying an Android device. In fact, I have a Galaxy S8+ for work and it is an excellent phone. But for my personal use, I prefer the iPhone. The points above were more directed to the those haters who troll iPhone forums and make negative comments like "YAY let's get all excited for new features other phones have had for ages lol" I think my point is that virtually all of human kind's advances are built upon former advancements and that is never more true than in the modern smart phone race.
