iSJ5, 16 Oct 2012buy radioYou just have to accept Apple left out a radio because it would be free to use and they want to force people to buy internet radio Apps and use 3G, because the deal they have with networks means they buy iPhones at full price with no bulk discounts like every other manufacturer offers, and in return for paying full price Apple promise to remove features or make it so networks can charge for them.
So really this is a contradiction in terms compared to Android developers because they make a phone and have to give people every feature possible because once they sold the phone that's the end of their dealings with it and Google makes all the extra money.
But Apple sells phones and all the services so they remove features so they can sell as much as Humanly possible and that's the reason why they use better materials for phones because they can sometimes make hundreds or even thousands of extra Dollars after they sell the phone which no other manufacturer except BlackBerry does but hardly anyone bothers with them anymore.

U think everyone like apple. Let me tell u the fact, we like apple as a competitor, but still we still those followers bcoz they dont even know what they miss on other side. They support simply bcoz they bought a high priced product, but cant justify it. When others say amything they wanna bash for the same reason! We like apple for its sleekness, smooth ui but its the same for 6 years in a row or may be from ipod era. Nothing changed. We like apps and dev community of ios for a while, but android now hot almost 99.5% except a few. App nos really doesnt matter. App quality wise ios better and google outlined the ui and contents for its game few months ago. Jony ive is an phenomenal designer he produced some of the most beautiful products for apple, but now he ran out stream. Same design for three years and again for three years(2g,3g,3gs and ip4,ip4s,ip5). Ipod is exceptional cant be beaten for a while, same goes for ipad except some exceptions.
                              U got accept that apple needs its users to depend on it for everything, so it uses some unfair practices for it like what sony did for a while. Itunes, proprietary things and face time, imessage(black berry copy) to name a few. Why cant we transfer files from bluetooth? Any valid reasons? All said, except sleekness and smooth ui, android gets to do everything and many more, dont have to mention i think! android is fast developing and leading by a big margin! We dont hate apple for its products(except some quirks) actullay we love it as i said, but we hate apple for its claws. We wouod like to have have all the features from android and ios and make a phone with top specs and design!

                                One of iOS's attractive features is its strong security. The FBI has just stated that Android is a haven for malware enough to issue a warning.

                                    The iPhone 5. As in five million units sold over the course of a … weekend. Can't say no to that. This is the latest installment in the smartphone series that changed the mobile phone industry and we can understand people couldn't wait. Now, what is it they couldn't wait for?
