Oh and i do understand the value for money thing but as a random user here said (i don't remember his username and i am too lazy to search it now) most people don't care about those extra features that both iPhone 4S and Galaxy SII offers. Many people don't even look at the specs they just look for an OS they prefer for the ease of user like for me iOS is more appealing and easier to use now i am not saying that android is hard to use or anything i am just saying most people don't care about the extra features android offers. But at the end of the day both smartphones win and both of them are awesome ! i have owned a G2 in the past but i sold it as i didn't use it that much and i always used my iPhone for my daily needs and everything :)
nuff said no more arguments on that one please :rock:

When you start an argument be ready to produce supporting facts. Else don't bother.

Many people don't even look at the specs they just look for an OS they prefer
There is a reason why people come on forums and post. The reason is that they are enthusiasts and are passionate about their stuff.
Nobody expects a 40 year old corporate executive to come on PG and start discussion Android vs. iOS.

like for me iOS is more appealing and easier to use now
That explains why you started this discussion in the first place :)

i am just saying most people don't care about the extra features android offers
Umm... Android users do. That statement is actually valid for iPhone users :)

both smartphones win and both of them are awesome !
No they're not :p

i have owned a G2 in the past but i sold it as i didn't use it that much and i always used my iPhone for my daily needs and everything
Why are you even here <_<

yeah i guess forums are meant for flame wars and fanboyism.
Welcome to the Internet :)

The hardest thing for me to do in my life is to convince the kids in school to buy a Android over a iPhone. They freaking just want a iPhone whether how old or how shit it is, like one is choosing between a nexus one with a iPhone3G, I told him the superiority of the nexus one over 3G in the most simplest terms and even told him that I will customize the whole phone for him but still he is leaning towards the 3G.

Is ka iPhone jaisa touch ho ga ? Games hon gay ?

I get so pissed when it happens that from now on me and a couple of Android guys simply say to shove the iPhone up your ass and walk away.

Its so hard having tech knowledge :mad:

I just hate that happens with me
One of my class fellows was like Iphone 3GS is better than GSII regardless of the dual core processor
I pointed it out some good features of android and managed to win some crowd but still these kids are dumb as ass seriously sometimes i feel like banging my head in the wall <_<

Care to share a few points to convince a novice to get an android? Suppose the person is an illiterate corporate executive.

it is not about fanboyism... people just do not want to admit their mistakes... an iphone use will say iphone is the best and vice versa for android users... both have great features and both have pros/cons but they just won't admit it cuz then they would be upset with their choices and may have to change the phone.... dil ko dalasay daina...

Why dont you people understand that for a lot of people iPhone is more than what they need? It's like you have some sort of 'obligation' to convert people over to Android. Understand the fact that everyone has different needs. For some an iPhone is enough. It gets the job done right out of the box, it doesnt need any extra software to keep it running. Some people just dont give a rat's ass as to how much they can customize their phones. You think thats all people do in their day? Stare at their phone and wonder what new clock widget they should use?

Despite what you think you'd be surprised to know not a lot of people care about such trivial things. And there are more people like this than the ones who do care about what clock widget they should choose. Hence you see more people with iPhones. For them it gets the job done.

The fact of the matter is there isn't a single reason for an 'average joe' to switch from an iPhone to an Android. Unless he's willing to cope with terrible battery, force closes, installing maintenance software, installing battery saving software etc etc. I've been using and Android for over two years now and its my fav OS, but recommending it to an average cellphone user? No way.

I agree Android is not for every normal user, 99.99% people don't even know what a ROM is but when people come asking for my help, I can't suggest a iPhone when they ask me to get the most out of their budget and that's why I suggest them a Android over buying a used iPhone.(considering their requirements, I mostly suggest Symbian phones under 20k range especially for girls)
Everyone wants to customize their phone but its just that they don't know how to, iPhone users in my school admit of getting bored with their devices but when they see my phone with almost a different experience every month, they get interested in Android but not knowing how to customize it.

Its not that iPhone gets them the job done, its just that it has become a obsession, everyone wants a iPhone whether they have to sell their kidneys for it.You ask them ever heard of a GSII and they will be blank but if you ask even a 8 year old he will know an iPhone but I have seen a significant increase in number of people owning HTC Android phones at my school over the past year.

The only OS that gets the job done in Symbian for every normal user, simple and easy to use combined with excellent hardware by Nokia.

@Ammar: Fortunately all those people who 'want to get the job done' and don't care about apps, ROMS, softwares etc. can get a Symbian powered phone for a quarter of the price of an iPhone.

You're become a lota ever since you sold your GSII and the iPhone 4S came out :D

Like I said before this is a place for enthusiasts. I can go flaming all those PC benchmarking addicts all day but it doesn't matter because they're passionate about it and no matter what I do I can't stop them from doing it.

Same case applies here, Android may be flawed but it's loved by enthusiasts and passionate mobile phone lovers alike. And there's a reason why the biggest phone manufacturers use it in their phones.

For an average joe, a good Symbian powered would do just fine.

Price is the main point here. Everyone knows how crazy iPhone's prices are. And considering you can get a much better phone for half the price, I don't see a reason why an average user would opt for an iPhone.

I've said this before. Just because someone isn't interested in customizing the crap out of their phone or just because someone's life doesn't revolve around their phone, OR just because someone uses their phone for basic call/sms/facebook doesnt mean they have to subject themselves to the ugly, lame, outdated and shitty devices from Nokia. Most of these people HAVE the budget to afford a good phone (thats why they have iPhones) so why on earth would they then get a shitty ass Nokia phone? That's like saying I have a 1crore budget for a good car but since I'm not a car fan I'll get a Suzuki Mehran instead.

P.S I ain't no lota. I used to be an Android lota but i've learnt to embrace all operating systems :D

@Ammar: Wow. Please recommend iPhones to everyone from now on :p

Any person having that kind of cash earned from hilal sources would expect much more from a phone if he's willing to spend 50k+ on a mobile phone :)

iOS is good. It's good at what it does. And I love it for its stability. And if iOS were available on a cheap phone, I wouldn't hesitate to recommend it to anyone.
For the money you spent, iPhone simply isn't worth it.

ugly, lame, outdated and shitty devices from Nokia.

How contradictory :p

by that logic you've concluded all 'premium' brands are useless, and Apple IS somewhat of a premium brand in the tech world. I expect a 500,000rs Rolex watch to do more. But alas my 7500 casio watch can tell time, temp and a whole lot more.
An TBH I really don't know what you mean by 'do more'. I mean what do you expect a phone to do? App store has nearly half a million apps, majority of them are better compared to the same app in the Android market. You seriously cannot judge an OS by how much it allows you to modify it. The only thing that's holding Windows Phone back is apps, and trust me when it will get them, it will BE THE phone to buy. It allows ZERO customization but there isn't a single soul on this planet that doesn't agree that Microsoft has nailed it with the Metro UI.

You shouldn't convince people to buy things its their money let them do what they wanna do with it and they wouldn't ask you silly questions like you mentioned that
Is ka iPhone jaisa touch ho ga ? Games hon gay ?
IF YOU DIDN'T try and force them to buy an Android after all its them who will be using it not you if you like Android then go ahead and buy an Android phone you are more than welcome to do whatever you want with your money. :)
