Also the person I replied to mentioned cost. Generally speaking you can get the same quality for less with android, since Apple sheep aren't likely to switch and have a price inelastic demand (and possibly other reasons, but regardless the point is still the same).

But yeah when I made my point I guess I was looking at it from my point of view and what is better for me, so what I said about android being better may not be entirely true for everyone. But it is true for me, and also generally anyone who doesn't have brand loyalty and is concerned with a pointless increase in cost with barely any increase in quality (if at all).

I stopped reading at "the same quality for less with android"

Then I laughed.

"Apple sheep"
Just take a look at how many developers use Apple devices (including their tablets and laptops), people who develop apps and components. (I will help you, most of them)

"increase in cost with barely any increase in quality (if at all)"
Again, you are calling people sheep yet you lack any experience in Apple devices whatsoever. Yes, some of their products are very overpriced, low quality, aimed at people with a high budget. Their macbook pro laptops are top-notch, and so are their iPads. I won't go on listing their good/bad products but consider doing some research before you start bashing a brand and a group of people based on limited knowledge. I rarely hear Apple users do the same (there are exceptions, and its just as silly as bashing Apple and saying that all of their products are built sheeps), and those people are indeed sheep, but the same applied to you.

TL;DR: If you are not qualified to judge, you can at least state that this is an opinion based on limited knowledge and experience.

Except everything you mentioned here is quite different to what I said, and also involves your wrong assumptions of my experience with apple and my knowledge of it, the very thing you criticise me for.

I didn't say anything about developers but since you brought it up there are more apps available for android devices and it is generally easier to make apps for it too. If anyone is lacking knowledge here it is you.

About Apple users not 'bashing' you obviously haven't read this thread.

Yea and all those apps for android is of a poor quality because it is too easy to dumb stuff to the Google store.
I don't know what you problem is with Apple but I doubt you really know what their devices can and cannot, let alone the App Store..

Most fanboys are elementary/highschool students who can't afford both apple and an android device.

Sheeeesh!

Like those ps and xbox fanboys. Pls shut up already.

It is not the case. There are millions of Apple devices that don't use iOS.

"there are more apps available for android devices and it is generally easier to make apps for it too."
Yes, because the requirements are much lower. Read the developer guidelines for iOS and Android and you will understand why. A simple UI mistake (wrong button placement), loading certain data on certain connection (heck, loading an HD video on 3G) will get your app rejected. Apple will also refuse apps if they are too similar to other apps.

"your wrong assumptions of my experience with apple"
I assume the fact that you are not familiar with the developer guidelines speaks for itself, right?

Apple fanboys bashing Android devices is just as silly as Android users bashing Apple devices. Don't just on every opportunity to call people names because of their preference.

For the record, I use both Android powered devices and Apple products. You don't see me saying that Samsung, LG, Apple, etc. users are sheep - unless they come with the "[BRAND] master-race" mentality.

Now posts of posts rambling about Andriod and Apple.

Forget all that, we have an update coming. Be happy.

No, vid said April 2015 for iOS4 no longer working. It won't be long before iOS5 isn't supported though. I'm shocked it made it this long.

I think the message is clear: upgrade your iOS version :).
