Apple event banner might be a gentle hint for a taller screen for the new iPhone 5

Really?! Name in one way how its complex. One button and all square app tiles...

48. dmckay12 posted on 10 Sep 2012, 16:51 0 0

It is more complicated to adjust app settings because usually it is split into what can be accessed from the app and what can be accessed in the settings app. Connecting to wifi toggling connections, sending an email, set up of device. Watching flash video (haha), transferring files, sharing files and recommending apps...

Apps is the core innovation and core satisfaction for apple...
And what do you expect? Can you please share with us? :D

12. bloodline posted on 10 Sep 2012, 06:12 8 5

we except something new, something innovative, something thats worth the high premium price and clear distinction in the market.

Sorry to say but ios is dated. Its only just got LTE and its not even go NFC.

If you make something simplistic and restrictive you limit yourself against a competition that stands for openness and creativeness which brings forth all the things apple claim to be but are not.

bloodline is spot on

plus 'apps' isnt an apple innovation there were apps before there was the iphone

Agree, but steve jobs innovate those apps developers to create more customer experience... and avoid those apps clone in app store which spoil the developer innovation...

Without the iPhone and steve jobs, there will be no HTC evo, droid x, droid bionic, moto atrix and so the galaxy lines...

Android will not so success without those apps from app developer who innovated by Apple... and this is why RIM and Palm dead... eventhough it os is light year ahead than ios!!!

Apple just want to keep it simple... Too much feature may actually give user lot of pressure when holding it... Apple just want make it comfortable...

The only android device that can beat apple now is Amazon Kindle Fire... you know why? because it's a SIMPLE device!!!

Read more survey before you comment, advanced tech feature sounds innovate. But according to the jd power, ONLY 47% of consumer will buy the device because of special feature. which mean the remaining will say:

'no bluetooth file transfer? So what!!'

Do you get what I mean fandroid... social media and apps gaming is the real innovation here to increase customer full experience...

I'm begging to all fandroid to read this survey carefully and move on !!!!

Whats easier than having my facebook widget or twitter widget on my homescreen ? whats more easier than turning my gps on/off with a widget... i could go on.

Whats more easier than walking down the street and having Google NOW pop up and tell me what restaurants are local and to my interests or letting me know when the next bus is due.

Whats more easier than talking to my phone to give my social updates?

A man doesn't choose a 1.6 litre car over a 3.2 v6 turbo, he doesn't say "my car doesn't go fast? so what" he says "Its there when I need and choose it" Its nice to have the option & ability son.

lmao first im not a fandroid , i dont have an android phone right now either so you can stop using that line when someone doesnt agree with something you say

surveys are solid proof of anything.

as for android devices that can beat apple, hmm well how about the samsung gs3, htc one x, nexus etc plus phone makers like HTC and LG are bringing out some monster spec'd phones.

and lets take your flimsy 'apple just want to keep it simple' which is just a positive way of saying apple are running thin on idea's. what about wp8 then looks sleek and simple to use to me and much better then the tired iOS

your basically saying people want simple when that isnt true if that was the case phone would have stopped developing and we wud simple have a phone that calls and texts.

also social media is innovation? thank you apple for creating facebook, myspace, twitter etc......you serious

gaming on phones isnt new, look at the n-gage and s60 nokia's they had great gaming ahead of competitors didnt mean they did well

if your so happy with a simple phone why would you pay high end prices for it , why not get a mid range

Thats all Apple needs..... And still its a midrange phone with along restrictions and other draw backs, but still it sells. It will. And no one can stop it. Apple shares and sales will be very high yet once again. Laugh as much as you want.

Explaining away an OS handicap by calling it "Simplistic" which then implies its a feature may sound good to you and the computer illiterate people like you but to people who require a certain level of functionality your argument falls short. You say "Who needs *BLANK* feature? That won't help sales." I say, move your files into a different directory for organization, email me a music file so I can listen to it, or hook your phone up directly to any computer with USB and move files over to it for transport. An open file system seems stupid and unnecessary to someone who doesn't need it, that doesn't mean I'm wrong for desiring that functionality. I would think that you are wrong for trying to push your OS limitations on me by insisting that the majority doesn't need it therefore it doesn't need to exist.

iOS thrives due to the computer illiteracy of the planet. Most people don't want to learn how to use new features, they don't like change. Therefore the one OS that is designed for the people who don't understand complexity has a very high customer satisfaction. Is that surprising to me? No. Do you think iOS users think they are tech savvy? I'm sure they think they are.

You say fandroid, I say I'm a fan of any full featured OS, Simple Nazi.

I will disagree that apps are the core of innovation. Apple nor Google nor Microsoft build all the apps for their marketplaces. These apps are built by external people who want their device to do something a little more or different. All a company can do is cultivate an environment where developers would want to produce an app. However, it is not the source of innovation in the slightest.

I am 100% confident in Apple, as an Android fan personally. I know that the next iPhone will bring SOMETHING to revolutionize the smartphone industry, or at least give them a competitive edge. They are just much better at keeping things quiet.
But I do see your point, iOS is appearing to lag behind Android, and I doubt they will incorporate ARM 15 architecture, and instead put a revised version of the A5X chip inside it, which would quickly be overtaken by a new batch of Droids.
