Default So I'm officially Done With Apple
No design change, no increase in screen size, what a disappointment. I've owned every iPhone since its release, but it seems Apple is more concerned with their bottom line than innovating.

So while I was at the Texas vs Rays baseball game, I dropped my iPhone 4. I'm considering switching from ATT, so what is the best Android phone out there?

Woah, easy there slugger. A lot of people, were expecting only a minor update to the iPhone4. The most significant imo is the CPU and GPU which is plenty faster for 3D gaming and overall phone performance. Maybe they're working hard on the true successor, iPhone5 for next year. This phone is more for 3GS owners I think, but any hardcore Apple fan will upgrade.

But for Christ's sake, we had to wait until October to get a phone that's basically obsolete. There are 1.5 ghz android phones coming out in the near future.

Best present phone is probably the Samsung Galaxy SII. There's a lot of owners on this forum (including myself) who are quite fond of it. If you can wait, the so-called Nexus Prime is supposed to be announced soon (The 11th they say...). It's a Google-branded phone so it will have stock Android and it's likely going to be the showcase model for Ice Cream Sandwich, the next big Android update. It's supposed to have a 720p screen, dual core processor, etc. Expect a top-of-the-line superphone.

The Nexus S was quite a disappointment, IMO, but expectations for this next Nexus device make it out to be a barn burner.

This is why most people think that you are a douche. This, and all those stupid threads you make about yourself.

As for Android, I made the iOS-to-Android switch and there are a few things that I really missed, namely the iPhoto synchronization. Basically, the pics that I take on my phone now are essentially lost in a large folder in the abysmally slow Photo app. iPhoto made it easy to organize and backup the photos, there is nothing even close to an equivalent for Android (that I know of).

The Nexus Prime is supposed to be the bee's knees.

So I'm a douche because I like baseball and am a Klutz?

Also, thanks for the info. I have a few thousand dollars invested in ITunes music. Is it difficult to transfer music over to an Android device?

I use iTunes for my Android music.

Just make a playlist in iTunes, open it, select all of the songs and drag-and-drop them right into the Music folder in the Android file structure using the file browser. Works in both PC and Mac.

I don't care about their devices. It's their patent warmongering that is getting to me. [thumbdown]

A guy like yourself look at Samsung Galaxy s2 for pure power, or look HTC sensation/ xe if you want a great ui by default.

There are loads of good gallery apps out there. Didn't you bother looking on the market? Try Just Pictures. It's great. EZ file explorer is also really useful.

@ OP - I love my Galaxy S2 but there are a few apps that I much prefer on the iPhone. It doesn't bother me because I have an iPhone 4 as well, but I'd be annoyed with it if I only had the S2.

I think it's more that you're incredibly cynical than anything else.

I don´t think you´ll ever see me getting my panties in twist over a piece of hard/software.

Discussing the pro's and con's of something doesn't mean that people have their panties in a twist, it just means they like to debate things.

I think this

I'm officially Done With Apple would count as "getting their panties in a twist".

I honestly only have about 15 apps I really use.. which ones are better on iphone? Just wondering..

I don't play games really so that's not a deal breaker.
