This is mostly how I feel about the iPhone 6/6 Plus

[jamesrick80]

I don't care what the average phone user does or doesn't care about. I care about it.

P.S: most users don't care about virtual reality gaming.

Okay, I only stated that because you seemed like you thought slow motion video was the ultimate feature. Your device is literally the same as last years iphone with the exception of that feature, optical image stabilization, and apple pay. ...............and everyone including me has ios 8 which is a complete mess on my ipad air.....

My device is a Note 3.
The wife's is (was) an iPhone 6.. though I just sold it on eBay. And will be buying her another one as soon as they replenish.

LOL @ "literally the same same as last year's iPhone..."
I'm not sure you know what the word "literally" means.

Please find me an app on Google Play that shoots 240fps slow motion and an app on Google Play that does shoots time-lapse video.

Anyway, I actually sold the wife's iPhone 6 (64GB) for $1,100 on eBay last night.. which is paying for my Note 4 and will help pay for another iPhone 6 for her when they're back in stock.

This is an option of my S4 and works well. Even though is probably not 240fps. Pretty sure the Note 4 will have 240fps slow motion. TW provides speed settings for slow motion and time-laspe, iPhone doesn't. At least on the 5S it doesn't.

May I ask how's your opinion about the iphone 6 display compared to note 3?

They're both very good. I like the slightly more saturated look of the Note 3 display. As far as displays on flagship phones in 2014 go, they're all freakin spectacular, IMO

I've owned an S4 and now Note 3 and have never even noticed those video options! Thank you for sharing. Just played with it now.

I don't know why samsung hasn't put them in the scrollable mode selection? Would have made it easier for users to find.

Lapse It Time Lapse Pro works pretty well. In terms of 240fps, not sure. Only ever used 120fps or so. There are three settings but I'm not sure if it goes to a true 240fps or not. I've only ever use slow-motion for my son playing sports and found it best to use my dedicated Sony Video Camera which is nicer and has 42x optical zoom.

Nice to know

Pretty cool stuff hidden in the camera options.

However the interface is out of something I had a Sony point and click over 10 years ago.

Those features need to be made more accessible and visible rather than being tucked away where you probably will never look.

I think the constant bantering is just a difference in philosophies. With iPhone fans, it is all about experience and ecosystems. That's generally what I hear.

With Android, it is about specs. But the Android "experience" is sorta like life itself. Your Android experience IS WHAT YOU MAKE OUT OF IT. Like life, it will never be perfect. You will have struggle and imperfect days. But you can have more control on what you make of it. There are obstacles, but once you reach a point where your comfort level on Android is higher than iOS, everything becomes second nature.

I think people who love iOS, NO PROBLEM! Get what you prefer and enjoy more. If you like getting controlled and spoonfed by Apple to get that constant, consistent experience, hope you have a bib with that.

There is nothing really wrong with either platforms. Just preferences like Mac vs PC, sports vs sports, etc.

I personally think iPhones are great devices overall. Even the more unattractive 6/6 Plus. But I'm just not in love with ecosystems and iOS anymore now that Android has improved in alot areas.

Compromise.

That's why I can't get excited about the iPhone 6.

It's good but not great. Apple went bigger but not better.

iOS will always provide the end user with that polished experience that most iPhone users crave, but the hardware is...not as good as it could've been
