Never used one before getting assigned one as a work phone in February. They are fuckin awful and I'm glad I haven't been missing out on anything. |

do you think you just need time to adjust? I heard others who were apple people just couldn't get use to them. |

I'll fully acknowledge that. I'm 31 going on 70 when it comes to technology. If I haven't learned it by now it's useless to me and therefore society in general IMO. |

You should just say that it would work better if it were an Apple product because Apple products always work, that couldn't be wring. |

I love Android phones. My first device was apple, what a royal pain. Android phones can be customized., You can get a secondary browser for sites like the trib. Kill history & cookies when you hit the read limit, then start all over again. No subscription. I like unlocked ones. No carrier bloatware. Have a LG G6. Dropped it a lot . Works great. Chomping at the bit to upgrade though. Wide phones are silly, tall ok. Next LG g7... OnePlus 6? Never buy Samsung, defective batteries. |

I've been very happy with the Nexus series. No manufacturer bloatware, early releases of all updates, decent performance. At one point I tried one of the Samsungs (I think it was the S6) and absolutely hated it. I have a 6P right now (made by Huawei), and need to get another year out of it. |

Had two Samsungs and was basically left wanting to smash them both with a hammer as they were buggy as all high hell. Although some of that was probably me being resistant to change. |

Currently using a Mi Max 2. Huge screen and great battery life. Love it for my ever worsening eyesight. |

I've had an Android for almost a year, it's my first smartphone, and I haven't had any problems with it. |

No problems with my Android and the cost isn't 1/2 a mortgage payment...if you can't figure out a phone, you could fuck up a wet dream. |

original iphone all the way to iphone 5 here. then the switch happened. i'm on my 2nd galaxy and have been pretty happy with the switch. i have to fiddle fart with my wifes phone/ipad a lot. i still think its a great product. they both have their pluses and minuses. but its a total difference. 3 weeks in i was ready to go back to iOs but by week 5, i was all in. the DBOTW for me is i just updated my phone. it now warns me of apps using up my battery...yet my battery life is terrible now. when i go into see which app is using up the most battery its the "this app is using your battery" app. *blink blink* |

My daughter complains that the galaxy slows down. Apps won't open and bogs. Probably runs a lot of shit in the background or Android gets malware? |

Denied, Androids are still far superior to Apple phones. At least the Android phone will last more than 2 software updates before it gets throttled down by the maker, forcing you to upgrade your paid for phone. |
