Android or Apple?

[new_mummy]

I personally prefer android phones due to the battery too. I can always buy a new battery if the current one gets depleted in lifespan. Batteries have a maximum charging cyle too right? Also, android phones are generally cheaper for my low end data plan.

Batteries deteriorate the moment they leave the factory.

Average is drop in capacity of ard 20% per year. So, a brand new Li-Ion rechargeable battery, never used before, may be useless after 5 years. In addition, for Li-Ion Batteries, if the charge drops below a certain level (for e.g. left discharged for prolong period, like 6 mths), it will be immediately disabled by itself. bcoz of the nature of the technology, charging a completely flat Li-Ion battery is potentially dangerous.

[quote]According to Korean media ETNews, the new Samsung smartphone, GALAXY S III, will be equipped with a Quad-core processor; possibly the Samsung's Exynos 4412 processor, a 32nm quad-core chip based on the ARM Cortex A9 architecture. Other specifications include 4.6-inch Super AMOLED Plus touchscreen display (1280x720), supports LTE network, 12-megapixel rear camera that can capture full high definition 1080p video, and runs Google Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich.

It was also reported that Samsung is developing 3D capabilities on the smartphone, though there's no details as to what extent will the new phone be equipped with the technology. The company could come up with a separate smartphone, rather than incorporate it to the GALAXY S III, and called it the Samsung GALAXY S 3D

but the screen is very small leh.compared to android.

yes but really a phone's main function is to communicate via voice. email is a bonus. i prefer it slim and not too big. personally i won't get anything thicker than 10mm

for screen real estate, get a tablet (all in one) or a notebook

just personal preference .... hahahah to each his / her own

I'm happy when I can get my email, surf internet, read news, have a few utility apps. I don't enjoy playing games, only being KPO on forums/emails/FB. *haha*.

So I don't really care if it's iPhone or Android. I'm happy with my android LG (free with plan). It functions as well as I need it to.
