Coffeebeanz 05/29/17 5:00:28 PM #18:	iPhone used to steamroll Android phones in camera performance. It really wasn't until the Galaxy S6 that anyone even matched Apple.

LG gets no love who could love a garbage budget company that releases defective bootlooping trash for the same cost as other companies? This so much. Fuck LG. The bootlooping survived the N5X, G4, V10, G5 and V20. I have no faith the LG G6 won't fuck up in a year like that. So glad they're getting sued.

green butter 05/31/17 10:41:48 AM #27:	Right now I have an iPhone 7, which I think is great besides the lack of a headphone jack. stupid anecdote: yesterday i wanted to check some photos on my old smartphones, so i turned on my iPhone 5S and Galaxy S6 Edge (after plugging them in and charging them a bit because they were both dead). the iPhone booted up very quickly, I got hit with a bunch of notifications, and then within like 2 or 3 minutes I was able to navigate the phone quickly and get to what I needed to do. the S6 took a solid 15 minutes to boot up and be usable, and even then it was so slow that there was like a 1 or 2 second delay from when I clicked on shit and when it actually opened. I got hit with notifications too but it took forever for a lot to come through and half my apps wouldn't even work, just crashing upon opening (when I tried playing with the phone). What's even funnier is that I had the S6 plugged into the Samsung quick charger, and it actually lost a significant amount of battery life while I was trying to access it, even while charging lol. I get that all smartphones are supposed to be disposable (which is fucking stupid, but that's a different conversation), but I don't get how so many people tolerate Android phones when they age so poorly, get so bogged down, get fucked up with updates so frequently etc --- http://i.imgur.com/LhwwG.gif <cite>green butter posted [p:880138013] in Poll: If m...
