>>55511177
okay, then don't use android? Or do use android since the defaults are still fine? What is the point of this comment, you're not even arguing anything?
>>
>>55511005
not as locked down and I like configuring/tinkering. more hardware options and the ability to replace storage/battery.
>>
>>55511435
This. Anything you don't like you can easily uninstall or disable.
>>
>>55511435
I use an android with the defaults. I'm arguing that you never need to change the defaults!
>>
>>55511005
Because there isn't anything better

>iOS
still has shit battery life. Expensive storage. Can't configure at all (even though I leave things default usually, I want the option.) Piece of shit store.

>Windows Phone
Nice interface. Few apps. Things like youtube are handled by third party apps which usually suck. Battery life was good IIRC. Closed off which sucks.

>Other shit like plasma ubuntu and sailfish
Plasma and sailfish OS look decent but they aren't ready. Ubuntu touch is pretty much ready but fuck canonical.

You're saying you don't *need to*, but the comment you're replying says *you can change* as in turning the phone into whatever you need, a remote, server, gaming console, or whatever. So your comment is still pointless.

Changing defaults help a lot especially with battery. Especially if you have like a samsung device crammed with bloat and shitty webapps flashing a light custom rom can do wonders.

Also iOS can't view webms and there is no easy way to transfer files to it. My brother brought his iPad over so I could put some episodes of a show on it for him and it wouldn't even let me sync through iTunes without wiping the device. What the fuck.

>Your wilful ignorance can't be laid at Apple's door.
Willful ignorance? Tell me how to transfer files to an iPad then without jumping through a hundred hoops. For a company that prides itself on making products that are intuitive and easy to use, the iDevice+computer connection certainly isn't it. And iOS doesn't support webms. I'm sure some third party app can view them but Android can open them right in the browser.
>>
>>55515342
I actually tried buying an app that said it could view webms, but no luck. I think iOS straight can't do it.
>>
>>55515731
I heard Chrome can do it now. If anything, you can open webm with VLC for sure

Because my shitty device cost me like 80 us dollar and I use it mainly for text messaging, web browsing, shitposting, pictures and email in this order.

I'd like a phone with the same size of an iPhone 4 5 or SE but with a SD card.

Hi!
>>
>>55518484
iOS usage is different than Android's SOT. For example, playing music with the screen off counts towards usage.
>>
>>55511005

All the mobile platforms are shit, Pick one that offends you the least.
>>
>>55518504
True but getting 10h SOT is still pretty easy with it, unless you're playing 3D games with max brightness, record 4k video all day or do similar shit.

So far I always had the problem that it's at 35-40% after a full day and charging it seems like a waste, while not charging it would necessitate watching the use for the next day.

Best reply so far.

>How did you guys get your batteries to last longer than 24 hours?

>baiting this hard

>>55516797
imo it helped

however and I'm not sure if this is specific to my phone for some reason or not but whenever I update my firmware it has pretty poor (compared to before, not to other phones) battery life and it normalizes itself over the next few weeks and becomes stellar again. Had this from 4.4 to 5.0 and then from 5.0 to 5.1
