Hi, rather stranger question: Does someone know what kind of phones H.P., Rick and Michael are useing? Michael seems to have an iPhone. What about Rick and The Lord?

I'm fed up with all those things too, and in addition I keep raging about the user interface of mobiles. I simply hate them. No matter what phone I try the interface is slow, unresponsive, f*cking unreliable, full of bugs that appear soon in use. Of course it's clear why; they have so many different, pointless layers there, software in each is written fast as hell, testing minimal. I remember with joy the old Nokias (the only ones that are good from that brand) where stuff was written in assembly (and maybe some C) and it was throughoutly tested. It worked so well. (At least this is what I remember, time might have polished my memory of all the ugly stuff but I think they were much better then.)

@ acid

the price is the key. I am in love with High end smartphones, thats what I waited for since i was born. You need to get a high price phone as the iphone or my HTC One X for 700€ to have no problems. Almost all top rated phones are very reliable and very very comfortably.

In my opinion iphones and HTC's High end smartphones are the best you can get nowadays. They are fast, reliable, comfortably, packed full with features. The overall handling (OS, web, mail, social media, news and so on) is awesome. Without overreacting i would say my smartphone went to my most important materialistic thing in my life. I just love it so much to have a fast and stable internet access all the time, wherever you are.

Of course, smartphones have a huge disadvantage: Being kind of observed all the time, quite expensive, life span is much shorter compared to phones 10 years ago.

But i think a smartphone has almost nothing to do with an usual phone from 10 years ago anymore. Its only text messaging and calling that are in common.


What i find very fascinating about smartphones is that hey have man things in common with the items many prople are using in movies playing in the futur. A tiny item for allmost all needs: Shopping, browsing, calling, mailing, tv, radio, camera, socialising, booking flights and hotels, pocket calender, newspaper, gaming and so on. this is such a device although in the very first stage of development. Smartphones will develope in the far futur to a massive device, channging the daily behaviour of humans radically.

Two words: controlled obsolescence

I have an urge to spit each time I hear Apple's name. They import top quality hardware for their gizmos, their software is fair and reliable. An iPhone could last at least 10 years without any need of repair. Yet they make minimum advances to their models each year, forcing the customers to buy the new one for the same price they paid for their current model less than a year ago. And the worst of all, they are constantly implying that if you don't have the latest one, you're a loser. Apple clearly has the most disgusting marketing strategy in the world. Unfortunately it works, thanks to the incredible amount of moronic snobs out there.

This is the main reason I'm against Apple and iPhone.
Look at iPhone 4, it had it's specs - about a year later, or maybe not even that, iPhone 4S came out, and it had a stiff cost despite not offering more than an upgraded screen and ditto camera. No, I'm not tempted by the "fabulous" iPhone.

I bought a Samsung Galaxy Xcover S5690 in December, and I think it's miles better. Maybe not technically, but it's dust and water proof to a certain degree, and can handle a meeting with the floor if you drop it.
I don't use the more fancy apps and stuff for a phone anyway, so it's more than enough for me.

Are you joking? The only thing that makes the xcover cool is the fact that the akku is top as well as its outdoor dirt and pinch protection. Compared to iphone it is not good looking although i dont like iphones. xcovers properties are quite outdated: Bad display (TFT), poor screen resolution, 800MHz Processor.
