Wow! It appears your £99 Motorola runs iOS 7. God, i feel like a right dildo for buying a phone costing £549 when i could have bought a £99 phone which also runs iOS7 :rotfl:
<heads off to fleabay to put his iphone 5S for sale and then off to Tesco's>

Actually I paid £80 :beer:
I have no idea about any phones, I picked this one because of the screen size and price..

It comes down to whether you want Android or iOS. I've got both a a Moto G and iPhone 5. The Moto G lives in a drawer most of the time as it can't match the iPhone in functionality or user experience. But what you get depends on whether you think that functionality and user experience is worth paying for.

Crikey, this ios thingy must be such a magical beast to not only prompt people to pay three times the price that they should for the hardware than it waraants but then actually brag about doing so on the internet lol. Can it make you a cup of tea and do the washing up or summat?

When you can get a phone as good as the Moto G for £340 ess than the equivalent iphone surely its only a matter of time, should moto/google continue down this path in the future, that even the most diehard Apple fans start to think 'what the heck am I doing?'

I'd agree with that when/if the functionality and user experience of Android starts to match iOS. Otherwise it's worth paying the difference if you ask me. £100 for something that doesn't meet your needs isn't very money saving.

It's a little know fact that iPhone sales contracts gave a clause that reads 'you must brag about the god like iiPhone at every opportunity, if you fail to do so your magical iPhone will cease to function' it also has a clause stating 'if you let on about this clause we will send the heavies around to !!!!!! you senseless'

Yes, I took one for the team to get this info out in to the open.

Why the constant Apple bashing, or claims that every owner of an Apple product feels the need to post about them?

There are probably more posts from people who refuse to consider Apple products telling others how bad they are than there are posts from people who like them.
It's a shame the hatred has meant discussions are slanted and any positive comments about Apple are derided.

Quite shamelessly stolen from somewhere else, but the only thing less secure than Android are it's users.

One of the reasons that chose Motorola as I am not one of those people who follows the crowd to buy Apple or Samsung.I like to support the underdog whether it be Motorola/HTC or some other smaller manufacturer.
