Loll. Samsung really went above and beyond with this year's camera. It has been over 6 months and S7 can still be like "Come at me BRO" to every new phone that comes out with its camera. It is incredible. I will say one thing, my sister has an iphone SE and Jesus do I get jelly everytime she gets a software update. That is what I respect about Apple's phones the most, the support they give is like no other. I was talking to their customer chat a few weeks ago cause my credit card got charged cause I bought this game for my original 80gb ipod I had back in the day but my credit card expired so the charge never went through but I did play the game. It was good old Sanic. But even though I bought that over 6 years ago from itunes, they still gave me a refund cause I don't have anything that is compatible with that game anymore. I tried doing something similar with Android because I bought a game from EA a while back but they didn't support Android 5 devices and person was like, welp too bad (in a nice way). I think if they bring back the headphone jack with the iphone 8, I will buy it and use it with my Galaxy S7 and see how I like it just to test it out as my daily driver so that if I don't, my mom's getting a new phone loll but if I do, I might switch. |
Yes, the S7 Camera and the hardware design is a big step up from the competition.I think the iPhone 6 is ugly and uninspired in comparison (the 6s & 7 by extension).
My first experience with Samsung was the Galaxy S3. The software support lasted less than 10 months. S3 didn't get Kit Kat, Samsung excuse was "not enough RAM" or something, a lie no matter how you cut it.
Anyon who follows tech blogs know that any smartphone with Jelly Bean, will run with Kit Kat better. That was Kit Kat goal after all, extreme optimizing so that low end devices don't look embarrassing when compared to WM8 devices, which were rapidly gaining market share in developing countries because they were very cheap and functioned well for the price. Kit Kat devices killed that ray of hope MS had in the mobile space. I actually still have a Moto G Google Play Edition. It runs lollipop better than my S3 ran jelly bean, despite being weaker than the Galaxy S3. But that's history, Samsung is much better at making smartphones now.
I got an iPhone 6 for my next flagship experience, and the thing that impressed me the most was the Permissions functionality. "You are saying I can download an App and choose what it data it can access and what data it can't? Wow lol". It's been part of iOS for a long time and Google only introduced it to Android with Marshmallow (after I migrated). So yeah, besides the timely software updates, I actually value the efforts Apple does to keep you in charge when it comes to privacy. Not a big deal to most people, and certainly not to me, I use Chrome and facebook after all, but it was still an annoyance with apps getting a snoop on my contacts and start suggesting them to me and me to them or whatever.
If the next iPhone SE will have the current 6s enclosure, then I think I am done with premium iPhones. The current SE is a beauty but too small, give it the 6 enclosure and 32 gig base storage and I'll bite. Plus, there is a headphone jack!
