Quote: "I... think you have no idea what a floating calculator is. That's just a shortcut to the calculator. A floating calculator is drawn over the top of other apps, so you can, for example, have Chrome open and type in calculations at the same time. Extremely useful."
Big deal. What difference does it make?
Quote: "
Actually it's not a "fancy customisation". It's just a simple practicality. The point of a screen filter is to make the screen even darker than the minimum brightness. Why is that not something an iPhone wouldn't need? It's not like iPhone screens go any darker than most Android screens."
Why would I need my screen to go any dimmer than the lowest?
Quote: "Oooook, if you're going to say jailbreaking is as good as rooting, you clearly have NO IDEA what you're talking about! Believe me. I did have half a spiel about why you were wrong about that, but I couldn't even be bothered finishing it. Suffice to say the inability to update the OS without losing jailbreak makes Android's root far superior."
Hit me, I'd love to hear what makes rooting better than jailbreaking. (I don't care about the inability to update - I wouldn't want to jailbreak anyway but the option is there).
Quote: "Not sure why you put emphasis on "every". Android default Messaging app has delivery and read notifications as well."
Certainly didn't have it a year ago when I used an android phone.
Quote: "personally I dislike the idea and find it to be rather unnecessary."
Of course you don't, it wouldn't fit your argument to like it.
Quote: "And Apple didn't steal any Android ideas?"
I pointed that out since android fans are so keen to point out when iOS implements an android feature.
Quote: "And what about 3rd-party keyboards?"
Are not as good as the default - the iPhone keyboard has always been superior.
Quote: "Widgets?"
Tacky.
Quote: "NFC (which is still far more limited than on Android)?"
Absolutely useless in every fathomable way.
Quote: "Battery stats? And iOS is still lacking things like wireless charging, multi-user support, selectable default apps, and the ability to install apps from places other than the official app store."
Why does anybody want this in a phone?
Quote: "Sure, iOS is probably more convenient in this respect, but imagine how frustrating it would be if you wanted to play both songs at once."
Why would you want to play two different songs from two different apps? It's not like you can even play two different songs from the same app...
Quote: "HOW are Linux and OSX superior?? Please elaborate on this bold claim!"
More of fact seeing as they're based on Unix, and Windows is based on a bowl of spaghetti - more elaborate and technical reasons have already been provided to you.
Also, UAC sucks.
