Samsung challenges Apple's iPhone with new Galaxy S4 - Page 7

Then you're obviously not getting the hint.

If you're that interested browse my post history. It's in there, and answered more than once. 

 

You remind me of my teenage son. He's often demanding, obnoxious, and/or disrespectful. It's just the age of course. He'll grow out of it one day and we'll talk about things as adults and equals. I'm looking forward to it.

I don't hate that author, I just find him entertaining.

 

I'm flattered by your continued attention, but sorry to see you still don't have anything on-topic to post here...

It's a thread you jacked long ago with your immature bitching about "Digler" so don't try to spin it as everyone else's fault but yours.

Still nothing of substance from you.  Sad.  I hope your day gets better.

 

No, that's not what it implies. It implies a right to privacy.

 

On the topic of 'paid shills':

 

Let's not anymore. It's certainly not impossible. They DO exist. We've even had some here in the past. 

 

But I'm not sure I (at least) want to see it anymore unless the person making the accusation has proof. Even then, it should not be posted publicly; PM one of us mods with your evidence, outlined, and we'll take a look into it. These claims have started to ruin threads, and while I'm all for ruining a pro- or even neutral-Samsung thread, getting into the habit of thread ruining in general is probably a bad idea.

 

Quoted simply to have it show up again.

They should call it the samdung galaxy s4/4 or s4/8
Just curious where they get the really long naming conventions from. For Apple it's simply the iPhone or iPhone 5.
Guess samdung is copying Microsoft, remember the name of windows phone 7? It took you a full half minute of your life in just uttering its name.

You can keep a straight face and say this? I'm impressed.
I can show you hundreds of your posts. Are you serious?

Well caught out. I wonder if and how he will answer this fact. I am your witness as I also notice him insulting DED, no matter what the article is. And he/she trying to say they don't hate/despise Apple is a brazen lie. I can find untold numbers of their posts. They should be banned.

What a lie. The vitriol that pours from your mouth is disgusting what you write about DED
Look at your user name, now do you get it ? Why did you choose it, except to be inflammatory.

Rubbish.
You are simply taking his/her side because you seem to have an issue with me.
My question is a legitimate one because it will show their true colours.
Because they refuse to answer a simple question then one can only conclude they have something to hide, and its certainly not their privacy.
Now will I repeat the question to you because it seems to me that you are confused.
The question is: why are you on his site if you hate Apple.

In this very thread his/her hands were shaking with uncontrollable glee because they found an article from one of the tech pendants that reflects negatively on Apple due to the new samdung phone.
Not sure if it was in the actual AI article or whether they searched high and low for one, if so, this is even funnier.

Already answered both your questions in my previous post.  A failure on your part to read and comprehend my posts does not constitute a failure on my part.

 

I don't have to justify why I post on this site or any other forum.  I just do.  I'm not hiding anything - if you don't like that, tough.

 

The irony of it all is that the nature of your posts do more to drag down the standard of this forum than all of the posters you call trolls/shills/liars.

 

Anyway, I'm bowing out of this discussion purely because there's nothing more to discuss with the likes of you.

 

 

stock was up because the street is not impressed

As I mentioned before the s4 isnt very user friendly when you have a bunch of software features that will confuse users. I could see this phone selling well but I could see a lot of returns. People want a phone that's easy to use not hard to use.

 

I think you and geekdad will get along just fine. 

 

And if you have proof of that, I'd be glad to expose true colors in the gaudiest fashion. But without it, it just craps on threads.

 

Your conclusion is fallacious. That's not how privacy works.

 

Their job isn't private information? Google will love that.

 

Oh, they'll answer that, in so many words. I've seen it before. Gotta coax it out of them.

It doesn't even require that much coaxing. There's just no need to repeat it over and over, particularly to disrespectful and insulting newbees unwilling to look for themselves, or at least politely ask if they don't know how to.

FWIW I actually found AI during a search on on Apple product I gave to my son a couple years back. There was an ill-fated Microsoft product involved too which I deeply regret, but that's even another story.  It lead to RoughlyDrafted and from exchanges with Mr. Dilger brought me here. You can thank him if you wish. There's the whole sordid affair exposed.

Still with the silly shill claims eh JR? You do this just about every time you're on the losing side of a discussion between us. Sometimes you add bonus name-calling, for dramatic effect I suppose.

 

 

Either you didn't read TS's post or you choose to ignore it.

First of all, this only proves you don't understand how ads work. Second of all, you also claimed many things (chemist or IT?) before and are running low on credibility.

Unlike your son, hfts will not change.

I've realized this evening it's not helpful trying to engage him as no good will come from it. It will only lead to more problems. Better to just let him be.

 

Seriously

Are you sure? Well, you know your son better than I do.

LOL. I wasn't talking about my son.

Of course Apple keeps devices up to date since iOS is basically the same since very beginning :D

I know

Well, actually:

Going forward Phil Shiller will have to find a different meme, since the one's he's been using lately aren't doing Apple any favors.

So how many third party apps actually use FaceTime or Siri or other of these "fragmented" tech. Most of the APIs will be used.

That answer applies equally to the Android API, in DoubleStandardLand some say that's not a valid answer.

Nope. Android 4 has more APIs than android 2.x. Most androids are on 2.x. Do a quick wiki search on Android.

In addition, Apple only requires developers to support the N and N-1 versions. Most iOS devices are on the latest version.

As we've already seen, newer APIs for both OSes include features not available in earlier ones.  Indeed, that's why newer OSes are rolled out.

 

Most Android devs target v2.2, which will address most users.  The relative handful who need APIs specific to features only available in newer OSes will, like their OS counterparts, use the oldest version of those to maximize their coverage.

The problem with that is the new APIs go unused and it becomes a checklist feature rather than a usable feature. SG4 has all the benefits of new APIs but barely any apps use those APIs.

What feature are you enjoying in Android 4.0 that you'd like to see more app devs support?

All I'm saying is why release updates if no one will use the new APIs because they need to develop for the LCD.

Of the 650,000 apps in the iOS app store, what percentage do you imagine are dependent on features unique to Apple's latest model?

Unique to iOS 6 or the 5? I have no idea. But the popular ones have been updated to use iOS 6 and the larger size of the 5.

you took the words right out of my mouth.  These people need to get a life
