Reply to: Iphone 5 vs New Blackberry

[d000hg]

Android is a bit flakey but I don't really use to much smart on my smartphone. Train app and shazam.

I do like HTC phones though and have been using them for about 6 years. Would never use anything else.

You just don't like a phone that's smarter than you Well, probably most of us could say the same but most of us don't find this limits our choice of phone just yet.

But its an iPhone, it'll be shiny and 5 is better than 4, can't fail.

I'm sold!

Your asking people to discuss the rumours of each phone as the iPhone 5 hasn't even been announced, so off the two you mention (even though there are three new blackberry's) right now I would always go for the one that exists.

Which way is the board going?

Don't know how to post a poll / CBA learning right now

I've got a couple of months left of my 24 month contract with my current Blackberry Bold and don't know if I want to stay with my BB (sim free) or get the new Iphone 5. I'm sorely tempted to get the Iphone 5...

Do you like phones with pictures of gladiators on them?

Can we please try our bestest to stick to a thread?

In 'general'?

Try 'technical' if you want serious answers.

Ok

Ferrari vs Mini Metro which is better? (please ignore the more obvious comparisons like Lambo's and Aston's).

Techradar has Samsung and HTC as No'1 & No'2, current Apple at No'5 and the only Blackberry is No'20.

You are an Apple evangelist who refuses to recognise the real competition... and I claim my 5 free downloads.

It's fairly simple and no dis-respect to your personal choice of phone was intended.

Asked in a different way - " As a contractor is it important to you to have a gadget or a phone? "

Apple Vs Blackberry seemed to be a relevant way of asking that. Ok. Forum Police?

How's about you start your own comparison?

Samsung are utter tulipe, I wouldn't darken my jacket pocket with one

Blackberry is excellent when it comes to messaging and emails but awful for everything else especially reliability. The speed, ease and joy with which you can communicate is the only thing keeping me on board as that's what you want most of the time. I can't stand touch screens they drive me mad when it comes to typing.

Agreed, hence I thought it was a relevant comparison.

I guess its a basic decision - Do you want a HHPC or a Mobile Phone?

I have to disagree.

My Samsung phone is superb. The Android OS is a bit flaky though IMO.

[NorthWestPerm2Contr]

Why Blackberry?

HTC and Samsung high end Android phones would be a far better comparison.
