    Mobile phones & tablets thread



    Firstly Steve it should be called an iPod Touch jumbo because that's what it is and secondly Tablet PC's are crap unless you're using it as a replacement for a clipboard and how often do most people need clipboards?
    Rule 1 of the forum, always accuse anyone who disagrees with you of bias.I would say that though.

    The new HTC One M8 phone review by the Guardian: http://www.theguardian.com/technolog...one?CMP=twt_gu

    It looks interesting by the question is if it has a exchangeable battery because if it doesn't and the battery breaks you have
    to replace the entire phone rather then just replace the battery.
    ...Funny how ev'rything was roses when we held on to the guns...

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-27992439 - Microsoft to make Android phone.

    It seems not even Microsoft has any confidence in Windows Phone. While it makes sense from a purely cash point of view to get some of the Android market, it's not a good long term business strategy to be competing against yourself, especially when mobile operating systems these days require a critical mass in order to attract quality app development.

    It seems to be by this move Microsoft have admitted defeat.

    He should have paid only 2-3 times more for inferior phone.

    You should really read back towards the start of the thread Pino. Hasn't anyone told you that all those Apple pad devices would be total flops?




    As for the Windows phones, over here in the US you can hardly give them away. We switched carriers and phones about a month back. The couple of Windows phones they had gathered dust, while there were several walls with all types of Android and Apple devices, with people checking out all their options.

    The wife and myself have Android phones, but I sprung for an iPhone for my daughter. Though for me personally it doesn't matter much either way, she has grown up with the interface and loves it, so I completely understand.

    I will be upgrading to the iPhone 6 in September or whenever it is out too. Can't see any reason to change platform as I'm enjoying iOS. Should get a few quid for my old iPhone too which will be handy.

    The iPhone 6 should be interesting. Most speculation saying that Apple will finally go for a much bigger screen size, which is what their competitors have been doing for years now. Sizes of 4.7" (from the current 4") and 5.5" have been mentioned.
