Then I suggest you watch this video in its entirety and perhaps eat some of that pie you keep mentioning!



And thats just one video amongst thousands that show the same thing, the Nexus 6P is a faster device in REAL WORLD usage.

I'm only carrying on because I know everyone's loving laughing at you.

Take your phone and hold it up to a cinema screen where movies should be played, now tell me your phone screen's not tiny. How'd you like that pie.

Nexus 6P vs iPhone 6s Plus - Speed Test and Benchmarks - YouTube


And thats just one video amongst thousands that show the same thing, the Nexus 6P is a faster device in REAL WORLD usage.
Definitely wins at speed tests and benchmarks, now if that's what you use your phone for then good for you. Show me a collection of every day apps being tested.... oh hang on that's what I showed and an old iPhone won.

Intel, Boston Scientific, Dell, Pfizer, Google, Hewlett Packard, Facebook and more also operate in Ireland.

Apple had almost 37Billion GBP in profit last year, due to no small amount of making mugs out of millions of people, including the Irish Government.

OK, thats enough, its very clear that no matter what evidence I put in front of your eyes to show that the iPhone isn't the master of mobile phones, that you are simply blinded by the sight of that bitten Apple.

Shame, as your missing out on Android which really is a wonderful piece of work.

Best of luck with the future, but guess what, its not Orange, and its certainly not Apple either!

My Galaxy Note 5 breezes through apps, full HD movies almost 10GB in size, health apps, web browsing, music, photos (both on google and on the internal storage) think you get the drift.

Never have I noticed it stutter or freeze.

That video is gone to your head, i suggest you get a detox from Apple and spend some time in a recovery clinic.

On that bombshell i am out too.

I am running out of superlatives to describe Jack by this stage.

But its not just Jack, blokes in the office behave the same way who also own IPhones.

One guy reluctantly took hold of my phone in the canteen and his eyes lit up when he saw the display and then I put a movie on and he just went quiet. He sheepishly gave it back to me probably thinking to himself, dont worry Apple can do this too I just need to wait.





and wait...........

Whats more embarrassing is watching people try watch anything on any IPhone.

Its a natural response from you as Apple owners being stuck in the ice age are not used to the rich multimedia experience Android owners can have, for several years now in fact.

you really are one deluded individual, Apple must have powerful tools to manipulate and control people like yourself.

if I wave my fingers can you count them or do they have control over that too?

Apple sales are declining Jack, they also have the small matter of 13B to pay back in taxes, Smell the coffee



Apple should hire you as a matter of urgency as you could be the tool (pardon the pun) they need to gain some traction in the industry again.

just to round this off, no surprise which phone is first.

Samsung Pay is also better than Android Pay and Apple Pay thanks to its use of magnetic secure transmission (MST) technology.

Just a week until the new iPhone is out, I'm sure you're both looking forward to it's release. Personally I'm more excited about the iOS 10 and Watch OS3, my iPhone is only 2 years old so a long way from replacement.

The amount of digging you're having to do to find anything that might suggest that your Android devices are on par with a year old iPhone is amusing, but you're going to need an excavator.

Poor Jack needs another thrump card.
In case his Browser (being a Mac) cannot open links.

here is what I pulled up from a brief snoop on the good auld interweb, in all of these 'best phone award' the all empowering Apple, the best phone on the solar system as voted by Jack here, well its second best in most peoples minds.

I reckon, them Apple stores brainwash you as soon as you go in the door to a carnival of whooping and high fives (a bit like the hypnosis you see on the now you see me films) how else can you explain for bizarre behaviour like queuing up over night to buy the latest IPhone or indeed the behaviour of Jack here himself.

Ha! There hasn't been a 2016 iPhone yet. "The iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus were unveiled on 9 September 2015" and they still trounce all the devices you listed in real world tests.

I'll be back after 1pm, will stock up on Custard Pies.

I can see that and it's good that you've come to realise it. One of the best things about Apple is you can just walk in a store to talk, I suggest going to their website and booking a Genius appointment before it's too late.

Surprised you have friends at all.

You are the most deluded apple fanboy ive come across for quite a while.

Your phones are over priced and behind the times in technology.

By the way Jack, you never answered my question on your aspirations for the all new all conquering iphone 7.

Will people still be taking place in the line sleeping over night to buy one?

Probably i would imagine.

Sad people.

Wow, you definitely haven't met a real apple fanboy. You're the one who came in here ranting, all I've done is thrown custard pies in your ranty face, I don't believe I've said anything much about Apple or it's products just shown you a video that proves you wrong.

Also, I did answer your question regarding the next iPhone, I said I wanted it to be a bit better than the last one and have 1 innovation, I'm likely to get what I want... although you'll claim otherwise.

He is a bit opinionated, isn't he?

But not the first thread we've seen such behavior. And only a handful of posts too. New username for an old member perhaps?

The last time I witnessed such behavior was from Mattyboy who never ceased to brag about his awesome physique and fantastical physical abilities along with his God like driving skills and his totally unbeatable BMW. Thankfully he's not been back since he threw a hissy-fit when everyone poked fun at his abilities on a track vid. Clearly not as thick skinned as Jack!

1 innovation you said? like one from maybe faster charging, OIS, wireless charging or even a Full HD display, how about retina scanning or waterproof.

oh wait....

Apple owners like yourself think you are buying into something special and above anything else available. The reality is Apple flog off devices that are over priced and outdated by the time the owner leaves an Apple store to a fanfare of whoops and cheers.

And more important devices that lock you into their own constrained limited eco system where Apple is the boss. You will most likely need Apple this that and the other to get anywhere. Soon they are rumoured to dispose of the 3.5" Audio Jack. There is a reason why Apple have so much money and it doesnt take a genius to figure it out, not paying any taxes sure helps them along too.

Aside from the huge markup on products they sell, Apple Fanboys also need to buy into iTunes, plus all the other Apple hardware accessories that comes part of the package of being a fanboy.

From a long time ago I realised what Apple were about and said its not for me. Some very very agressive and cute marketing has got them to where they are now. Apple have taken advantage of gullible people like Jack here and everyone can see the outcome in this very thread. After getting taken for a ride for so many years they wont accept that Apple products are in any way inferior, right Jack?

On the other hand quite a few people have grasped this and moved on, with Android for the most part the devices are far more powerful with superior specifications and for much reduced cost. Plus there is no faffing about with extra hardware, cables or the need to get iTunes or anything.

Jack here was very keen to point out this 'real world' video where Apple trounced every living orgasam to smithereens, with some to spare.

Alas, Jacks limited Cognitive Skills are no good at understanding anything explained by Dozza or myself. Again hardly surprising from someone whose brain is engrossed with Apple.

I will let the dust settle here but look forward to seeing the outdated IPhone 7 soon.
