      I have an android and it sucks. Mine's on the verge of dying and there are times when I want to chuck it at the wall and smash it into a million pieces. the iphone was far better imo

        One year I was in Val d Isere for New Year's eve.  I was in one of the hotel bars and everyone, and I mean everyone, except me, was on their iPhone around midnight.  I vowed at that point, never to join that club.  I got an Android (can't even remember which) instead.  Within 6 months I had a iPhone…..

                  Nokia have reintroduced the 3310, which would be another option for those seeking a simple phone.

                  As for Android, my advice would always be to go for one of the Google handsets, although my well obsolete Nexus 5X has been terrible. They've just announced the Pixel 2 and 2 XL, and I'm tempted to get one of them.

                  The trouble with Android is that most companies customise the OS, which tends to make it harder to use and slower. They're also somewhat tardy with updates. If you look at the Android developer dashboard, most devices are running two or more year old versions. This means users are missing out on security updates and the latest features.

                  Motorola tend to be pretty good with updates, and Google has just bought a chunk of HTC's handset business, so they'll probably be more up to date with things in the future too.

                    Has the first iPhone, never went back. Android ever since, well after blackberry was buried. I Loved my physical qwerty keyboards. I recently had the BBC key one, pretty amazing phone.

                    I'm typing on my HTC U11 which is a sublime phone and my LG V30 is cling Monday. Then my U11 will be returned/refunded to Amazon. The LG v30 is the best phone to come out in a while….. And for a while

                      My iPhone 4 has not outlived its usefulness at all… However, every single app I try to use says I need to run at least OS 9 😞 The latest version I can run is 7.1.2.

                      This means I need to buy a new phone...

                      Checked the apple store and the iPhone se is closest in size. Probably need to check the stock situation at the Mcr store before I blindly turn up...

                      Have I mentioned at all how much I'm growing to hate this constant cycle of tech updates due to enforced obsoleting?

                      And how the everliving [expletive] is 'obsoleting' a word but 'obsoletion' isn't??

                      Sorry this turned into an unexpected rant at the end.

                              Well I bought a new phone yesterday, spent most of last night and this morning playing around with it. It's actually going to make a lot of my trip over the next week or so a lot simpler. The customer service from the Apple Store continues to be hilarious…

                              The rest of this is going into the random rants section...

                                Last year I finally bought my first smartphone (I know I'm late but I really loved my old Nokia 6300 :'() and because I didn't have a clue I went for an Android phone. So yesterday - almost one (!) year after its been released by Google - my device received the Android 8.0 (''Oreo'') update which turned out to be pretty minor with some nice but minimal improvements. Waiting this long for such a minor update is unacceptable. Not to mention the tardy security updates (if they come at all). After experiencing such terrible software support (and because Android feels like a knockoff of something that's been around before = iOS) I'm planning to go for an iPhone next time.

                                        I'm thinking of replacing my old Samsung Galaxy S6. Possible candidates are the Huwaei P10 or P20 (not Lite nor Pro). I'm not a a tech geek, just want a good camera for when I don't have my proper one. To those who own one or know their gear - which one would you prefer?

                                          If your main focus will be the camera, the P20 is the only way to go.

                                            If you can wait for roughly three weeks, you can switch to one of the new iPhones and they will definitely have great cameras. I'm gonna be the one and say the P20 Pro is highly overrated and is only the clear winner for low light photos. As of now the Google Pixel 2 still has the best camera although the Pixel 3 is already coming in October. If you want to play it safe you can always go for the Samsung S9+ that came down to a pretty good price recently.

                                            Edit: Here's one example why I don't prefer the P20 Pro: http://dl4.joxi.net/drive/2018/08/01/0008/1217/533697/97/8da1b25e30.jpg
