I know what you meant. As I said though, HTC is focusing it on the HTC one brand this year. Three variants of the One-X; LTE, non-LTE, and one with a slower processor.

I've heard them say this as well, so good for HTC. I'll wait for the next iteration of the iPhone regardless. Too many things with Android I'm not too fond of. :cool:

I actually completely agree what was said about the iphone.

I have an iphone4 myself and while it does work great, its just boring after using ios for 4 years now. There is nothing exciting about it. But its mostly the hardware itself that sucks. iphone is still stuck on 3.5" inch? come on. there are already phones out with 720p 4.7" screens.

And itunes has always been a pita since 2003 or something. Even on OS X. It just feels slow and sluggish. I don't know what it is but dragging and dropping music files in explorer or finders happens instantly but everything you do in itunes always involves some kind of lag.

its easily one of the worst apps I have ever used. Although it actually is my main audio player.
agree, used iTunes for I don't even know how long, always been a pain and slow, too many quirks and restrictions and then issues if you forget to check something off in the menus etc. I love being able to mount the GSII fast and do whatever I want quickly and to where ever I want, so much more efficient for media and not have to deal with iTunes.

Although even after using ifile for years, just realized I've never tried that manually with the iPhone...wonder if you can do that?

Because I'm an iPhone user. And, just a couple of times, I found useful information here.

Can you show me where I "trash talk" iOS and the iPhone? I certainly have pointed out areas where I've had problems. My posts of "trash talking" would be only in reply to the masses here that think the iPhone and iOS is void of problems. And the ignorant posts about other topics, where it's obvious users either haven't used devices they are talking about, or just plain trash talking themselves.

Having the 4S, I obviously think it's the best for me at the moment (well, WAS, back in October when I got it). But, like I said, I'm not blind to the fact that it's not perfect. I'm a fan of facts, not hyperbole and flat out lies.

Not thinking that the iPhone and iOS is perfect = hate.

The next part of your comment is purely subjective though. Superiority of one over the other lies in the needs and wants of the user.

I feel the same way. I have never trash talked the iPhone (other then it's outdated network capability) and think it's a good device, however as a Verizon customer I just don't think it is the best phone they offer at this point in time. Once you have a phone with 4G LTE it's impossible to go back to an EVDO only device. Battery life used to be an excuse, but with a properly designed battery it's not anymore.

Other then my RAZR MAXX and a Windows 7 laptop I have from work, everything else I have is Apple. I have an iMac, an iPad, and a couple iPods. I like Apple products and don't have an issue with iOS. The only issue that I have is that the iPhone isn't the best you can get right now. Is my MAXX better then the iPhone 4S? Well even though the screen has less resolution it is bigger and I like that with my larger fingers. Watching video or looking at pictures is just a nicer experience on a bigger screen. The ability of using the 4G LTE network is huge and it has a battery that allows it to be used hard all day and have enough battery to make it half ways into the next.

I think it is completely possible for someone to be a big fan of Apple and own plenty of their products, but chose a different phone. All I know is that I am excited to get Android 4.0 soon and I think it's sort of fun to have devices that run different operating systems. It gives me a little variety and I get to enjoy the best from both.

Yeah there are certainly a few of those things hanging out there.

What's bad about sense?

I'm going on to my first Android phone, TouchWiz and Motoblur doesn't appeal to me, HTC Sense seems like the only good android option...

When I had the HTC Inspire I didn't like the sense because it was sync contacts at the same time with Google contacts... I turned it off in the settings but it shut down the whole Facebook widget.. It was a PITA...
