iOS6 Changing how you see the world

its not 45 on sgs3 for a start
its £70 for the extra 16gb for the 32model on its own.

Erm, yes it is! A 64GB microSD is £45. That's not debatable, it's fact.

I'm comparing the cheapest way to increase the storage on both phones. On the S3 that happens to be a microSD, on the iphone it's on the built in memory.
 
Apple have Doncaster in England as Duncaster.

apple have said they have repeatedly tried to update google maps and where blocked.

So who decided that the iPhone and iPad would no longer have Google's map data – Apple or Google? "Duh – not Google," a well-placed source at one of the companies told me on Thursday afternoon. Which means that the pain that Apple is now feeling, as people lambast it for flaws in its maps offering, is entirely self-inflicted.

so comparing apples to a car then.

they are differnet types of memory. for a start one is soldier on. why not compare apples for apples. or doe sthat not support your view.

or at least pick an android phone with no sd card. even then that only shows one company.

You are blinded by hatred, wrong, know nothing and live in a dream world.;)

What? You're just making nonsense now. It doesn't matter what form of memory it is! What I am showing is the difference in cost for me to get extra memory on each phone. I could not care less where the memory comes from, only how much it costs me, the user.

The facts are as they are. Five times more expensive to upgrade the iphone than it is on the S3. Obviously other phones will be a different story, but they're not the ones I'm talking about here, so why both mentioning them? I could mention the memory costs on a PC, but that's not what I'm talking about either, so I won't waste the keystrokes.

good for you, no one else was comparing that. its not the same at all and redundant to the discussion. which is how much companies charge for the higher memory phones.
I hope you compare android and windows phones as well with that thinking, when they don't have sd cards.
 
you do remember loads of google maps routes like that. funny how when Google does it, most people find it funny it gets posted around and laughed at. apple does it and you get your response.

Fair enough but this is apple so its 10x as big by their own making

They make a big whoo haa at launches and tell you how amazing and inovative they are. They took away maps that have become for many people a daily must have on a smartphone

And apple, the biggest company in the world, this is the best they can do

I know it will get better but it should have been better than this on release, its a bigger embarrassment than "your holding it wrong". Looks months at best away form being operational
 
Glaucas are you actually able to have a discussion on here without resorting to playground bullyboy "I'm right everyone else is a moron" antics? This whole thing you have with your opinion being gospel is getting tiresome.

I don't disagree with that.

its just boring in this android forum. all the misplaced opinions, because people have hatred for a company. why do people hate a company. they are all the same. so much so people ignore facts.

how is it my opinion?
what is the mark up of the tab compared to apple?
what is the cost of memory for sgs3 at release rrp?
you will rarely find me saying such stuff about opinions.
 
Google, reportedly, wouldn't give Apple turn-by-turn navigation unless Apple also embedded Google's location-tracking Latitude service, which Apple didn't want to do. Likewise, Apple either didn't get, want, or implement Google's better vector maps. (Not only in the built-in Maps app, but in the APIs developers use for embedded maps in App Store apps.)

Nilay Patel's reply:
I am 100 percent confident that it was Apple’s decision to remove Google maps. Five years in the making. Solid reporting behind that one.

So now we end up with yet another Apple bashing thread in this part of the forum.

It's ironic really that the Android fans are now worse than Apple fans ever were - that I saw - but it really drags the quality of this forum down (thankfully it's just a small few on here).

There's no need for it, yes, you might think Apple are stupid but to repeatedly bring it up is just daft and makes you look odd.
 
Not sure why you quote that last bit. I said In my firstt or second post it was apples choice. But that choice was born out of other circumstances.
