How can a phone like this cost more than macbook air

That's what I don't understand! And think how many more they're selling than MacBook Air's.

Considering what hardware in a phone you can get for a third the price, it defies belief what apple get away with charging.

OnePlus One phone
5.5" 1080p IPS display (401ppi)
4g
3100mah battery
64gb
2.5ghz quad-core snapdragon
13mp camera
4k video capture
£270

Oppo Find 7
5.5" 2560x1440 IPS display (528ppi) - that's 127ppi more than 'retina'
2.5ghz Quad-core snapdragon
13mp camera (with 50mp stitch mode)
4k video capture
£380

Ipone 6 plus
5.5" 1920x1080 display (401ppi)
A8 Chip
8mp camera
1080p video
64gb
£699
128gb
£789

Having owned iphones I do know that they work nicely, but what I'm getting at is the hardware. It seems to me apple get away with charging £400-£500 for their IOS really.

I mean, apple must be one of the largest producers of a single model, if not the largest producer. With volume comes discount, so if OnePlusOne can make a far smaller amount of devices and charge a 3rd the price, you'd think apple could produce the device for far less than oneplusone.

And how they get away with some of the faults is incredible! Like I said earlier, I've been a fan of the phone since the first ever sturdy metal version. When they released the iphone 4, just by holding it you could lose signal due to bridging the metallic edging. Apple's response.. Just deal with it and put a bumper on it. I refused to buy the iphone 4 due to their stance and arrogance, when they sorted it with the 4S I made the upgrade then. Now you've got the new thin bendy 6. I don't like the new size anyway.

Another thing that really annoys me is the IOS upgrading making older models struggle. I had to remove most of my videos and half my music today just to upgrade the poxy IOS. It's like they make every new update another nail in the coffin of the previous model.

 

Battery life has fallen through the floor on my work issued 5C.

I'm an Android user primarily, but I've never owned a droid that can match the various iPhones I've had on battery life.

Until now!

 

downloaded ios 8 to my ipad last night. It's now slow, crashes. takes at least 2 or 3 goes to log onto anything........... Piece of ****!!

 

Really? the S5 for example blows away any iphone on battery use. The 6 is still at the bottom of the battery test charts as well unfortunately.

 

I'll concede I never used an S5 (I did say all the Androids that I've owned :P)

But the S3, S4 and Nexus 5 that I've all had recently have all struggled to run a full day of what I would refer to as "heavy" use. My iPhone 5C prior to IOS8.X though could truck along for a couple of days... not anymore.

I do a lot of flying, and sitting around in airports so my phones do get a fair stretch - with lots of 4G Hotspotting for my Laptop and stuff like that.

I'll always be an Android fanboy though, battery life aside - the phones have always been a pleasure to use rather than the frustration I get with IOS.

 

I guess with so few buyers of the iphone, relatively, they just have to charge that much and use that cashflow to prop up macbook building costs

 

What do the battery usage stats say? New iOS 8 feature, might help you find a rogue app.

 

You can't mean that? 10,000,000 in a day, what else in the world has sold 10,000,000 units in a day.

 

i dont think anyone deny apple have a pretty ferocious bunch of followers that would by a turd if it was available as iturd, but doesnt mean its any good

 

Can't disagree with this!!!

 

New feature, my Androids have had battery usage stats for years

Nothing abnormal though, just screen, safari, etc... the stuff I'd expect from just sitting on my phone browsing etc.

 

It's a new iOS 8 feature, like I said. Just like bigger screens are an iPhone 6 feature, even though my iPad has had one for years.

 

As far as I can tell the only shift in market for apple is downward

At the hands of microsoft

 

Some more obvious bull**** http://appleinsider.com/articles/14/...ds-google-play

 

But who outside of teenage years gives a flying **** how quick candy crush works

 

Lots of people care about gaming. Not just children. Apple changed gaming forever with the iPhone and they're still pushing it forwards.

 

Brand new phone faster than year old tech shocker.

 

That's a change of tone. It was welcome to 2012 last week. Glad to see you've seen the light. Oh and the iPhone 5s is last year, better than current Android phones.

 

2012 was the new IP6 features, hardware is newer, but see how it fairs against the Note 4, as the Note 3 Pummelled the IP5S.

 

IP6 screen and camera are still crap, cpu does well seeing as its alot less powerful than top of the range android snappy dragons, thats it.

IP5s better than current android phones? hahahaha utter cack.

 

You had an A8 chip in 2012 before the A7, that's ****ing amazing. Way to keep it quite mate. Do you know how many Note's I've seen? I'll tell you, none, zero, zilch, I guess that's because it's so good people are scared to buy it.

You are a total tool if you can't see anything good about the iPhone 6 and +

 

You're learning, big numbers don't automatically mean better. Now,tell me troll, how the camera is crap? Trusted reviewers have a different opinion.

 

Why not? I enjoy the products and they serve me well. You should try Apple products, 100% you won't go back to Windows and Android. Maybe you could get a loan?

 

Sure you did, LOL, save up your paper round money?

 

Jack at his finest
We need people like jack on board to keep the place Alive

Just need tubby/fat Thomas back from rehab

 

Well I've got an iPhone 6 Plus 64GB on the way along with an Urban Armor Scout Rugged case as well.

Is there an easy way to import all my Google contacts into my Apple account, plus I'm assuming that if I download all my Google Play music onto my PC then iTunes will pick it up and import it into my music library?
