    So tired of the audience participation in these endless phone wars. Oh you have a smart phone? Dope! They’re cool and useful. Anyway

      I like Apple’s os, App Store and processors better than android’s. I like Android’s everything else better than apple’s.

      Ultimately you are getting fucked anyway but you get to pick the guy who fucks you.

        Well everyone says, and has said for years, that the best phone would run iOS but with the hardware innovations of Android phones.

        Hell we’re on the 7th generation of foldables and Apple still hasn’t got one. I get they’re not for everyone, and that’s fine, but they should have the option.

        If Apple offered an iPad that I could fold up and put in my pocket I might actually consider switching over. I’m not particularly bothered by iOS on a phone but iPad OS on a foldable phone I’m pretty sure that would sound like hotcakes even if it was 3K.

          Rumor has it Apple wasn’t happy with the crease in folding phones and didn’t want to launch a foldable until they could solve the crease problem. Supposedly, they are gearing up to launch theirs next year and Samsung will be adopting apples solution for the crease problem then too.

            Apple are launching a folding phone next year in the same way that Fusion is a decade away.

            They’ve been saying that since the launch of folding phones and the crease thing is just an excuse. No one who actually has ever experienced a folding phone cares about the crease. But if it was actually a solvable problem, I’m pretty sure engineers at Samsung are smart enough to be able to work it out, I don’t think we have to leave it up to the Apple geniuses.

      If people were simply pointing out the pros and cons of the various devices, it would be very helpful and useful. I don’t care if you hate Apple, I just want information about the hardware and software and if it’s a good value proposition.
