Meanwhile Apple are taking the word "cheap" iPhone quite literally:

He's already depressed, pino dude, don't rub it in. :p

I think a large portion of Android customers have always been the gadget minded enthusiasts you speak of. Besides, lack of advertisements is also one factor that helps them keep the handset cost...

Yep, and I think that's based largely on the success of the Nexus devices. Less hassle, less bloatware, no ugly UI, smoother, cleaner, faster. I won't be surprised if more manufacturers go that route...

I can't speak about WP, but I think as far as Android goes, it's an open source OS, and manufacturers develop their devices around it, and not the other way around. Google doesn't have much to do...

The huge screen doesn't deter you? I draw the line at 5 inches for a smartphone screen, really. But I guess it's okay as long as you're looking for a phablet.



That assumption was simply based...

Glad the confusion has lessened somewhat. About a year or so ago, a sim free unlocked iPhone 4S was around £150 more expensive than the Galaxy S3, and hence the outrage by consumers and review...

Apple have dropped £30 in the UK, and the 16 GB is now available for £500.

Of course Apple wouldn't call it a budget or a cheap iPhone. :p I'm sure their marketing department will come up with something clever enough to appeal to the common man.



I agree about the...

I hope the techradar rumors aren't true, because after all it is going to be a watered down version of the flagship iPhone, and £400 is just too much for that IMHO. That won't be clever strategy by...

No, no, not biased at all!

And carrying a device doesn't automatically make you unbiased. There have been a lot of negative things said about Apple, Android and WP in this thread. Where have you...

iPhone sales projections are now so low it

Apple decreasing the iPhone 5's price, and are soon to launch a budget iPhone.

I...

I have never really seen you saying anything positive about Android or WP or anything else over Apple. So, you claiming to be unbiased doesn't really make sense, as there's an obvious bias towards...

Then don't bother with this thread. Simply block people or stay away. OR better yet, make a new thread where only positive comments are allowed.

What really grinds my gears is folks swearing they...

Tsk tsk, Daniel. This wouldn't have happened if you had only bought an Apple. They would have replaced your device with the latest one, added in a hot fudge sundae and thrown in a foot massage for...

Do lighten up henners. The only one getting wounded up here is you with your two page essay earlier. The thing is that the landscape has changed, devices have changed, OS' have changed, Apple are no...

Well, of course! It would be silly not to make money off of cheap plastic, D'oh!

The fact that they are even considering a cheaper iPhone means that several consumer voices and constant annoyance...

Shucks, those 5 seconds were a complete waste of time, innit?



Eh? You didn't get it. I was talking about the sarcastic and backhanded digs you and airpasser were taking at anybody who dares to...

It seems you lot can dish it out, but have problems taking it.

As for the rest of it, sorry henners, didn't read, too long. I know you put a lot of effort into it, but after the first few lines I...

Teach me master! :eek:



See, that's the thing! They don't anymore. ;) And there is no valid reason. :p They don't even have quite the same monopoly or market share anymore either. The consumer...

I know, right? And Crapple is still more expensive! :eek:

Erm, I was joking... ;)

You wannabe geek, you won't get something THAT amazing. But for $100, something much better than an iPhone 5? Definitely. :p :p :p

I've gone past comparing as well. In fact I've lately lost interest in smartphones or tablets. These days whenever I see some new features, I'm like meh, that's it? :D I won't be upgrading my...

I think a lot of times people make the mistake of comparing the iPhone with any number of Android smartphones.

If you are going to compare an iPhone (a flagship device), to its competitor, it...
