I'm interested to try 4G, I don't really get the need at the moment but I'm still interested.

Oh, I had to laugh.

Guy with MBP: 'I could never get a Samsung, I'm creative.'
Guy standing next to him: 'You're a barista.'

It is almost as bad as the iPhone when it first came out, the thing didn't even have 3G.

edge meets all the requirements for the ITU IMT-2000 standard, so therefore is 3G. just because at&t didn't hit on the genius of marketing it as such doesn't mean it wasn't.

So my employee are like "you should totally get a 4S when you qualify to upgrade." I'm like, I will not get an iPhone, ever. The samsung phones are butt ugly. I'm getting a motorola razr, 'cause it's a sexy bitch.

I don't have these irrational preferences between phones, currently I have an iPhone, it works for me, as soon as that stops being the case I'll get something else...

Two things:

1) Samsung phones look great but most of them run shitty android
2) I preordered my 4s and got it on release day. I didn't stand in a line...

Also the people touting 4G you do realize it's available in very small markets. Also the chipsets such causing battery life to suffer.

Lol,I think the ad is cute, "dude you're a barista" I can't sit here and knock Apple products since i'm typing this on a mac but I have a 4g android phone and can't imagine having to go back to 3g, it's painfully slow.

Very small markets? Are you shitting me? For T-Mobile... hardly the best network available, there is 4G is damn near 100 major cities. I'm sure Verizon has that much already if not more. Very small markets... pfft.


I own a Galaxy S2 and an Iphone 4s. The iPhone runs nice.... but the Samsung runs nice as well. They are obviously different, but from a design standpoint, it's clear that Samsung is 100x better. And that is Apple's forte, design quality. Their products usually look the best, but the are losing that battle in the cell market.

yup. 4G literally is available in small markets. In my state cities with as little as 50k people have 4G.
Once you go 4G you don't want to go back.

4g or not, it is about having choices. you have a choice to use blazing fast 4g and drain the battery. and you still have a choice to go to any website you want, including Flash sites.

with apple, there are no choices because apple made all the choices for you.
