Thanks Lemmy

As I said I have absolutely no problem with a personal opinion - what I replied to didn't sound like one.

And just for the record :

- free space on the desktop is to be used for widgets / most used apps. I personally prefer it to ios setup but it is just my opinion
- did you ever try Motorola G? It is lag free and the hardware is no where near 3 ghz quad core

Anyway I understand your point and appreciate your opinion since you at least have been giving android a go

Thanks Aussie

The homescreen wasted space really irks me. I know you can use widgets and shortcuts to apps etc, its just the really big gap that has to be left between the items.



Look at the gaps between the widgets and app shortcuts in the image above, terrible waste of space and certainly on the Note 3 and GS5 and G3 handsets that ive used this year you wouldn't be able to get another row in

Fair point Lemmy - I guess you can always have a 2nd desktop page with a lot of rows and no widgets . It doesn't bother me but I get your point . On 3rd party launchers though the gap can be smaller though but these always going to be a gap I suppose

Precisely.

It's one thing if someone says they don't like Android or iOS for A,B,C, but to say a phone is not good because it runs Android is pure ignorance and desrves slamming, that's the sort of general claim a fanboy makes.

There's a big difference between an opinion and a general claim.

One thing I have learnt since getting my iPad is that I should never generalize, and that there is a lot to appreciate in both systems, anyway no point in debating this, as there will always be Plank in iPhone threads making ignorant general statements, one simply cannot debate anything with a narrow minded person like him.

I hope those of you with the iPhone 6 are enjoying it, I'm trying to get my mother to leave her 5S for the 6 or 6 Plus, both will arrive in SA next week, I have borrowed her my S4 to give her an idea of how nice it is to have a large display and she seems to be much happier, no longer having to wear her glasses as she does when she uses her iPhone 5S or BB Q10. Hopefully she'll go with a iPhone 6 Plus, think that will suit her, she will use the 5S for phone calls and 6Plus for everything else.

I did give my reasons for not liking Android !! you haven't used anything but an Android handset for quite a long time now so you cant really offer any sort of realistic opinion or even loose claims
I'm not a fanboy at all, I've owned and used more handsets running differing OS's this year alone to know that I cannot stand using Android handsets so how can I be ignorant !! My opinion comes from first hand experience not ignorance.

Please tell me the different mobile phones OS's that you have spent time with this year in order to form opinions that the rest of us can take seriously or maybe your the one making loose claims

I really hope you enjoy using your Note 4, without doubt its a fantastic handset........but it runs Android and so for me its just no good I'm afraid....in my opinion of course

Please let this thread get back to discussions about the iPhone 6 and not Android OS......run along now until you have something relevant to contribute to the discussion that stems from first hand experience

Lemmy

I don't think Tsepz post was referring to you but the one I directly replied to initially

Tsepz

I like it , the battery doesn't seem as good as 5s but is still pretty good. I had 6 plus as well but decided to get note 4 and keep iphone 6 . Iphone 6 plus is nice and everything but wanted to have a smaller phone next to my other 2 phablets. (Now I am thinking I could have bought sony z3 compact and kept iphone 6 plus) but oh well. Yeah iPhone 6 is great, other than a few glitches in iOS 8 which will hopefully be fixed by ios 8.1 I like it. Camera is good as well - and I have OIS on both lumia 1520 and note 4 so I should be covered for low light photos. Apps are slowly optimized for the new resolution so no major complaints there. And I find I use it more than I was using ip 5s due to larger screen. I don't dispute that 5s has a brilliant size but if you do a lot of web browsing like I do on the phone ip 6 is much better

I know Aussie but its just another person here labelling others as ignorant and it is really starting to Fu** me off.

Great collection of phones by the way !! I really wish I had the money to enable me to keep my 1520, its such a good handset.

Glad your enjoying the iPhone aswell !!

I didn't call you ignorant or a fanboy, neither of my last two posts were directed at you...

I use both Android and iOS daily with my Note 4 and iPad, take both to work and most places I go, so I have a great idea of how both systems work.

No idea how you concluded that my posts are directed at you, and how you skipped the fact that I don't just use an Android handset but also use a iOS tablet, but anyway, as you were...
