NFC isn’t even off the ground yet

You just saying that because it’s not on an Apple device yet? Google Wallet’s already launch in the States you numpty.

Yeah, we’ll said. Microsoft suffered from the same type of criticism from the disciples of jobs

Hardly a +1. Apple had a complete system first. (Even if they bought it basically complete)

However this is obviously been in the android game plan for a while. Can’t wait!

Plus they had all those dodgy app put up recently. Android will always be second to Apple, in both design and security. They may equal in functionality or hardware.

siri is still in beta and is far from complete… it is also biased towards whatever Apple approves as their philosophy; family planning being the prime example. where they filter results to remove any examples that they don’t like. this is well reported.

Aydo, you have all the hallmarks of a troll but I suspect you’re just an idiot.

You’re a sad, strange little man. You have my pity.

Agreed boss

as an ex iPhone user and current Nexus/ice cream sandwich user, can I just say it makes the iOS ux and ui seem like something from the dark ages

I’ve used both and completely disagree cpm. The apple system is tight, user friendly, secure and very pretty.
I’d tend to agree Android is on a par or so functionality wise. To say its better is laughable. Fact.

@aydo. ah will you stop sure Apple copied nearly every other company! They only brought out their first mobile phone 20 year after motorola, so this copying arguement is weak.

Pathetic argument Jon
Apples first phone crapped all over all previous phones. Sad argument.

@Aydo
I know don’t feed the trolls but here I go…

Android has often been guilty of copying functionality, however certain things like multi-tasking and particularly the notification system has always been miles ahead of IOS. Hence why some would say the functionality is miles ahead and always has been.

The simplification of the overall system is only half way through by all measure and under the directorship of Mattias Duarte the former palm exec it is definitely going in the right direction. It will become ‘tighter’ very quickly and has a better customer philosophy all round.

Please don’t be blind.

Look at all the thumbs down. What’s with people and choosing underdogs?
If you could call Android and all their different phone manufacturers that.
One company, Apple, surpasses all them. Comes up with ideas first, which all the rest copy. This is just fact. If you can’t accept that you probably voted in Fine Gael expecting change. (rolling eyes smiley here)

Funny seeing as the Android project predates the iPhone. And iOS 5 ripped off a helluva lot of Android features around since ’08.

Had voice commands long ago!

Ye terrible that it can help people with disabilities. Ignorant prick.

On the contrary I use it all the time and find it fierce handy, and I’m only partly a moron.

Thanks for that Aydo. It’s a gimmick, if it comes in handy for people with disabilities then that’s great but otherwise for THE MAJORITY of people it is nothing more than a useless and impractical feature. Merry Christmas.

Pushing a more easily interactive of smart phones is hardly useless.

Whine whine
