mykeyb Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 dab I'd suggest you have a look at the Android phone Samsung Galaxy S, it's superior to the iPhone 4 in many ways and is cheaper. If it's your first smartphone I'd highly advise this phone. It's astoundingly good. Pop over here and we can explain the advantages and disadvantages of Android and Apple phones. Iphone or Samsung you should read this. Worth a read.... CV is obviously a closet Iphone fan as he posts more on this thread than the Android thread.

CVByrne Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I'm not going to bother posting links to peoples opinions from other forums. As you can see most are previous iphone users and so are influenced by their experiences with the 3gs. Anyway I'll post the features of the two phones in the android apple discussion thread. As a newcomer to smartphones should have a look at both platforms and make their own decision which is best for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
omariqy Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 New jailbreak is available at jailbreakme.com if anyone wants to jailbreak their iPhone. Id get in there quick before Apple shut it down They can't, US court found that jailbreaking is legal. Apple can't do squat about it. Just did this. Apart from free apps - what other benefits are there? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CVByrne Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I wouldn't get an iphone. The galaxy s is considerably better, i couldn't downgrade to an iphone and lose this awesome 4 inch screen. Let alone everything else. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The galaxy s is considerably better, i couldn't downgrade to an iphone and lose this awesome 4 inch screen. Let alone everything else. Another example of something that doesn't really sway anyone. An extra half an inch on the screen isn't exactly amazing is it? The iPhone screen is significantly better, clarity wise, I'm led to believe anyway. That would be the most important screen feature for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People should look at all the option's and choose the phone that suites them. For me, 4inch screen is a must, better for watching movies, browsing the internet, playing games. Also the screen is so vibrant, it really is beautiful and must spell the end for LCD screens. You should try have a look some day at this screen it really is beautiful.

Is the phone any good for making phone calls? I had a good look at the Galaxy S on Saturday in the O2 store as I was looking at handsets for my son, and much like Dirk and the Iphone screen I was left serious underwelmed by it in the store and considering some of the comments from CV I was expecting something so much better.

CVByrne Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 I have sky Sports on my x10, it came with it. It was installed by o2. but that's specific to that carrier. But iphone is going to have the edge at the moment in app development. Sky will start with the apple app then follow with the android. That's the way of things at the moment and is the no1 advantage the iphone has over android. But with the 2.2 update we can stream any game we want on our android phones so I wouldn't worry too much about this totti. Actually you can just use sky player to stream video to your android phone as you will have flash support, so can use the normal website I'd assume.

Stevo985 Posted August 9, 2010 VT Supporter Share Posted August 9, 2010 Totti, do they have the TV catchup link? I know it's something you can get on any smartphone, but I showed it to my boss who just got an iphone and he almost jizzed himself. basically freeview on your phone. iphone.tvcatchup.com Just go there on your iphone and save the bookmark to your desktop. You have to join the site, but it's free. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TOTTI-THE-GOD Posted August 9, 2010 Share Posted August 9, 2010 Yeah they had that while the world cup was on lucky buggers , especially as work decided to ban all sports sites so world cup time was annoying. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
