ivor Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Feedback is much appreciated. They both cost the same for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrocide Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 neither. Both are becoming outdated very quickly. The next Nexus is due out end of Q4, and the iShit 5c is about to be released. What this means is that both the phones you listed will be even more out of date and cheap as hell. Also, as a previous owner and current problem solver for my wife's 4. You wont have the true iOS 7 on the 4. Essentially itll be a dumbed down version of iOS 7. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And for listening to music, uts far superior to android. And I'm clearly not an iphone fanboy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pyrocide Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 The iphone was actually quite good when Jobs was in power. Now that Cook is in charge he's running Apple into the ground. iOS Maps $300M flop? COLORED iphones? Also, vanilla android vs TouchWiz/Sense blahblah is far better than the iphone 4 sound.

ivor Posted August 21, 2013 Author Share Posted August 21, 2013 Dammit people, I came here expecting educated opinions... neither. Both are becoming outdated very quickly. Not on the same scale, though. The Nexus 4 came out less than a year ago, and the iPhone 4 came out well over 3 years ago. 3 years. That's outdated to hell. And they cost the same, wtf. What this means is that both the phones you listed will be even more out of date and cheap as hell. They both cost $300 retail where I live (Canada), so that's why I'm asking. Somehow, despite the iPhone being waaay older, it's the same price. galaxy s4 $400 more expensive, and only very slightly better. the iphone isn't shit, it's actually pretty good. And for listening to music, uts far superior to android. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pyrocide Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 a more accurate comparison SG4>Nexus 4 1080p 5" screen microSD support better replaceable battery Upto 64GB internal storage (starts with 16GB - the Nexus' max) LTE network BTW 1.9GHz** quad core Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThatOtherChigga #Mack Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Android Tablets>iPad iPhone= easier to listen to music Android = you can do more with it I'd go with Android, but I wouldn't buy the Nexus Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not what this thread is about - it's about opinions on the N4 and iPhone 4. And I do apologize for that - couldn't tell if Awesome was joking or not - if using an Android, you could probably get a music app that pretty much replicates the iOS one, but as someone who as used iOS devices in the past, I could agree that the music interface is pretty nice. a more accurate comparison SG4>Nexus 4 1080p 5" screen microSD support better replaceable battery Upto 64GB internal storage (starts with 16GB - the Nexus' max) LTE network BTW 1.9GHz** quad core I'm not saying it's a bad phone, just a bit overpriced.

AwesomeMcCoolName Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 I was being completely serious. Androids music player is shit in comparison. Plus iphones tend to age better (don't slow down as fast). Also, it's less of a pain to restore an iphone. Just plug it into itunes, restore, and then select and download all the apps at once to download. Chigga might not like stock Android. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teeird Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Galaxy S4 > Every other smart phone out right now Really, the Galaxy S4 and the iphone 4 are on par in efficiency, however when given the chance to NOT support Apple, I'll do it in a heart beat.

Pyrocide Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Vanilla Android is killer. Cyanogenmod ROMS add a lot of nice features including a better music player. iPhones were good back in the Android 1.x-2.2 because android fucking sucked. Now that Android has become a major mobile OS its stepped up its game with bringing improvements to the mobile market. Personally I will never own another iDevice as I enjoy having full control over my electronics and not being tied down to a single close source OS. That being said, iPhones are good for the people that just want shit to work and dont care about having bleeding edge. As I want to push my electronics to the limit and use it for more than just a phone or a text machine I prefer Android OS. Yes I know I can jailbreak the iPhone to have semi-control but still have to REDO the jailbreak every time Apple puts out a new f/w that fixes the original exploits.

Any idea how to flash cyanogen on my razr maxx? I tried to do it, but i'm assuming i did something wrong since it didn't end up working.
