I have 2 questions I need help with
I've had an iPhone for about 5 years now but I'm seeing an increasing number of people move to other's. What I'm tired with about iPhone is the lack of storage and the messing round that goes with iTunes and the transferring of photos too and from.

1. iPhone or Samsung

2. iPhone 6, Samsung S6 or Samsung Note 4 or Note 5

    Neither as they are both overpriced BUT

    Samsung might be getting cheaper

    check out the LG G4, just got it myself yesterday and its pretty damned good so far, and if storage is a concern it has expandable storage (micro SD i think)
    Drop a brand challenge
    on a £100 shop you might on average get 70 items save
    10p per product = £7 a week ~ £28 a month
    20p per product = £14 a week ~ £56 a month
    30p per product = £21 a week ~ £84 a month (or in other words one weeks shoping at the new price)

    Android is the OS not the phone or camera .

    OS is probably the most important part...
    I think Android is leading my way of thinking instead of IOS
    Followed by storage and camera

    Wouldn't touch iPhone with a barge pole.......but you sound as if you are too easily swayed by what other people are doing .

    So many people get an iPhone because their friends have one or because its perceived as the phone to be seen with rather than researching for the best phone.....which certainly isn't the iPhone.

    Having said that if your committed to iTunes etc. an iPhone is an obvious choice but to anyone who doesn't need or use iTunes you can do so much better.
