^^^google didn't purchase Motorola, they bought their patents so they wouldn't get sued. Which is why Samsung made the last Nexus phone instead of Google. Google has no desire to get into the hardware market. They were just tired of them and their partners getting sued every time they released a phone.

Google did buy Motorola. The reason they bought them was so that they could have their patents. They had to make that clear because they had a lot of people afraid that they were going to make the Android OS exclusive to Motorola phones. But the terms of the deal were that they couldn't do that for at least 5 years.
 
I have a Galaxy Note. I think the screen is like 5" or 5.3". I think it's pretty damn great ... combines the best of smart phones with a tablet.

I think Android is going to keep growing. I don't see the iPhone's market share going down, bu they've kind of plateaued a bit haven't they ... the 4s seemed to be a disappointment and didn't offer enough new.

that new evo and that S3 are monsters.

neither company is going anywhere though b/c i'm sure once the new ipod is on deck folks will be standing in lines and camping out

Getting the EVO when wifey plan runs out. That MFer has beatsmobile when you connect a beats headphones.

Bruh you can put that Beats mobile on your phone now if its at least running Gingerbread. I have it on my HTC Inspire and that phone is a year hold.

Shits sound great btw

Good to know. But I need a new phone anyway. I just need another reason to upgrade.

I'm thinking about getting the Note but the thing is so big might be concerned withi it for everyday use. Does it hinder your everyday use?

Good question! I am thinking about leaving Sprint before the ship sink and that Note or the Galaxy SIII is calling my name. But I run with my phone. That damn Note look just way too much to be lugging around on my arm.

The ipod is the main reason I am planning to jump ship back to iphone. The music players on the Androids are wack as fuck.
 
Was thinking about copping that 4s until I read this thread LOL. Never had an iPhone so I kinda wanna see what the hype is about.
 
Damn iPhone 4S made me an apple fan and I've had damn near every android phone up until Oct. 2011. One thing about iphones they dont freeze and force close.... Chick at my job got the Evo LTE and it freezes and force closes just like the OG and Evo 3D

Depends on what iPhone 5 has.... if its just small features like Siri and better camera... They will lose market to Android.

If they have some better stuff they will pull away
 
The Iphone gained new customers after it opened up to other providers, people who weren't able to have one before(like me cuz im on sprint) now have one. I'm seeing more Iphones now than ever before and I don't even mind because honestly, the phone is THAT GOOD. the Iphone 5 should do equally as well if it is 4g. Thats what people want.
 
iphone will always be the simple mans phone, its that easy to use.....smdh @ old folks and 5 y/o with iphones, doing facetime....lol, but for those who tech savy, Galaxy's 3 and evos "when ROOTED" are the powerhouses...word to android

android tech savy? Nigro sit your el darono ass down. They even make android phones for the youngies with the baby keyboards and oh the fisherprice tablet that is waterproof for kids. so yeah....I have a iphone and had a droid for like 2 years they're pretty much the same but I know android isn't all built like that. Maybe when it was released on the G1 5 years you had to know a lil something something to operate it but now it's simple as the galaxy 3's features.
