A lot of people do, and I'm fine with that even though I'm of a different opinion on it personally.

My gripe has to do with people blaming Android for their bad experience on Samsungs terrible bloated buggy software and shitty hardware. If you have a bad experience on an iphone, you are totally within reason to blame apple/iOS because they're directly affiliated with the device/software 100%. You cannot do that with Android because so many manufacturers run the platform and modify/skin pure Android to be "unique" to that device (to a detriment most of the time). So you are not essentially getting a "true and pure" comparable experience of all that Android has to offer because you chose a poor device to begin with.

Google IMO has realized that and is why they finally are creating a true google branded Android device in the Pixel. It will appeal to the average, uniformed user that needs MSM advertising to show them that pure Android device that will give them the best experience on the platform. Let's face it. While Nexus hands down was the best android device, only the hardcore Android/tech guys have the knowledge and understand it represents a pure user experience. Google just doesnt market it enough to the general public, make it a provider device, etc.

Hopefully that will change with the Pixel. Google/Pixel/Android will be your Apple/iPhone/iOS comparable platform. Only then will I listen or respect someones opinion good or bad about Android.

I pretty much agree with this. Some of you guys take this way too seriously. Just buy what you like, it's not that big of a deal.

Galaxy and Android are POS if you are moving from the latest versions of iPhone.

I ordered my iPhone 7 today

Should be a pretty decent upgrade from my 5s. So happy about going from 16GB of storage to 128GB!

I bet there is a strong correlation between Apple fanboys and Hillary supporters.

Yeah, the 16 gb storage was getting to be a joke, nearly 50% of that was used by their software updates etc.

The baseline 32gb definitely helps out with that, although I am sure they use even more storage for updates now than before.
