    Isn't that what everyone should do... that's what they say, 'if you dun have an iphone 4, well, you dun have an iphone 4' :p

    :rotfl:, a couple of guys in the office have the 4s now, I have just gotten an xperia ray, they are impressed with the xperia and more so that the battery life is superior in everyday useage, both complain that they take the handset off charge in the morning and have to recharge it when they get home and whilst technically the screen res is better on the iphone 4 and 4s, in practice perhaps the ray looks more pleasing but certainley no difference . For me it was not for not being able to afford an iphone, it was just not for my wants and needs.

    Show that you try to show that your 10 year PDA is better than iPhone. Also changed the title of the post three times.

    Then they are either talking on the phone all day instead of working, or there is something wrong with the batteries. My iPhone 4 lasts for days on a full charge, though I am almost sure it doesn't last as long as it did before I installed iOS5.

    My Nokia 3210 was a much better phone than all these fancy modern smart phones. The battery lasted for ages, weeks, and it could safely be dropped from height on a hard surface - sure all the pieces would come apart, but none would break and you could just put the phone together again. And it didn't need a case to protect it, as it had a small screen. And it was a better shape to be used as a phone, more comfortable to hold. And it was smaller than these new phones. And you could easily and cheaply change the keypad and case to all different colours. And the keypad lit up. And it was very cheap to buy!

    Feel free to keep making a fool of yourself:

    It may be much cheaper than iP, but this doesn't make it worse. Screen has a little worse resolution, but, say, camera is much better. Not to mention smaller weight, Flash, longer standby, FM radio, replaceable battery and up to 32Gb micro SD card.

    Your still not getting the point you are trying to make across, you don't seem to accept an iphone is not suitable for everyone :p
    One of the cheap devices is an ipod touch (it didn't inspire me to get an iphone), the other two are surpass an iphone for my needs :cool:

    make a search online, apparently battery life is an issue for quite a number after updating to iOS5. good for you its been okay :T

    The samsung android phones got battery problem out of the box without any update
    See the link below
    http://www.techenclave.com/mobile-phones/samsung-galaxy-s2-awful-battery-life-198224.html
    Search other manufactures htc and motorola and you will find that a lot of models have battery like problem either out of the box or after update.


    iPhone users use the phone, android users spend time telling iPhone users how good their phone is.

    It seem DUTR spend more time at work going on about how his phone is better than iPhone and it can do this and that. My ten year phone can do this your iPhone can't etc. It must be great laugh to work with him.

    In fact you are the only one here who is obsessed with proving that iPhone (or was it a Widows Mobile phone?) is better than all other phones, but is unable to provide any real facts supporting this subjective opinion.
    Other posters just disagree with you and say that it is not better despite being more expensive.

    Had the look at the ray on the weekend, really looked nice and felt nice
    just wish it had a slightly bigger screen 3.7-4 would have been ideal.

    Like the look of the Moto Razr
