greenhulk: Samsung still spent more money when they were making plastic phones. You can look it up, Samsung has always spend more money in BOM for their S and Note series thag Apples iPhones. Samsung spends more money on R& and they pay more staff. I don't know about Marketing but they both spend truck loads of bucks on marketing. Even though Android is free, they still spend as it's evident from Touchwiz to Samsung Experience that their UI is usually way different and often feature packed.

Many people are not getting question right , He asked what I phones special . Not what makes iPhone 6 or iPhone 7 bla bla special . If they ask u what makes blackberry special u will say because they have BbM and have der our subscription ,(that was before bbm entered android) but at least u are getting my point. I don't know much I think the what makes iphones special is because they are using different OS from other smart phones , windows phones are special too .even blackberry are special ,same with android . But what makes them (iPhone) expensive is the brand name .. No OS is d best one is better than the other in one way or another , Rich people likes it and celebs so the apple always use rich material ,tastey colours and materials to build der products just to satisfy the facts is for d wealthy class of people . Same thing with other brands . sometimes they build mighty phones knowing that they are useless but dey know some billionaire sons will like it , it's just normal So let's stop getting jealous and go for the OS that works for us 1 Like |

CHESTER48: I'm on a neutral ground here but looks like u been sleeping. iPhone 8, 8 plus and iPhone X support wireless charging. Previous iPhones couldn't support wireless charging because of the aluminium back... Phones with aluminium back cannot have wireless charging, reason while some HTC, LG v20 and many other flagship aluminum build Android phones don't have wireless charging. As for fast charging, well shame on apple, it takes over 2hours to charge iPhone 8, 8 plus and iPhone x. But that doesn't mean it doesn't support fast charging, just that it's not included in the box. To grt fast charging on iPhone 8 to X, u need a USB c to lightning cable and Apple's 39 watt charger which costs $50 (apple are crooks for not including this in the box as standard) |

Androidking: Very intelligent comment. iPhones are the only phones where u can use iMessage and FaceTime. that's one of the things that makes it special. Whether it is better than Android is debatable. |

greenhulk: Bros. Are you sure you know what you are talking about at all? |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Nobody: 3:30pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
ollah2: Yes bro I know what I'm talking about. No phone boots faster than an iPhone. Do ur research. |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Nobody: 3:36pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
greenhulk:nope the spec I quoted was based on his iPhone 7 not 8 So I decided to upload a pix from tomsguide, and you see how long it takes IPhone even using the so called lightning cable .

Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by ollah2: 3:37pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
greenhulk: Hmm. There are phones thag boots faster than iPhones. I have seen vids where Pixel 2 and S8 Oreo did boot faster than iPhone X |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by ollah2: 3:41pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
greenhulk: Would you consider Android been special for it been able to use alternative platforms for imessage (WhatsApp, BBM, Allo, Telegram et al) and FaceTime ( Skype, WhatsApp, Duo et al) Yes iPhones can do these too, how about been able to do it with everybody regardless of the platform you are? |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Nobody: 3:47pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
ollah2: Not true bro. Every iPhones have always booted faster than every other corresponding Android phones, at least since the introduction of apple A9 chip used on the iPhone 6s. |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Nobody: 3:48pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
ollah2: Unfortunately all those apps are also available on the iPhone. So not so special. U can Skype someone using Android from an iPhone. |

Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Nobody: 3:54pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
greenhulk:if Essential is the arguement now, then I think custom launchers wins against ios. Cause you can never find one. Nova launcher, etc Keyboards etc. Infact Iphones are peice of shit. You can't customize it to your taste. I can't give up SwiftKey on Android. No matter what. Or even lucky patcher. Chaii. Or titanium Backup, all this are android essential |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Nobody: 4:09pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
ollah2: Agreed Google pixel 2 boots faster than the iPhone, but iPhone 8 still boots faster than galaxy s8 and s9 (not even talking iPhone x here ). The video u posted was s8 Oreo in better, still haven't seen the speed test for the official version. Remember the s9 ships with Oreo. |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Nobody: 4:12pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
CHESTER48: Bro just stop. U have been sleeping too much. Who told u switfkey keyboard is not available for the iPhone? U are the same one that said iPhones don't support wireless charging and fast charging. Oga the last iPhone u saw must be the iPhone 5. This argument is not about which is better, the question is what makes iPhones special. Do u think a serious business man or celebrity has time to be changing launchers or messing around with widgets? U think the average user knows what lucky patcher or titanium back up is? Of course all those things are not needed, the system just works. I've been using both Android and iPhone for like 7 years now, the last time I even downladed titanium back up was like 4 -5 yrs ago. Android has become so good that I don't need any lucky patcher or titanium back up when I can easily restore my apps from the play store whenever I change phone, same thing with iPhones. Only a very minute number of phone users are power users. |

Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by ollah2: 4:28pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
greenhulk: I haven't checked official version nor the S9 cos it makes no sense but the vids invalidates your argument about iPhones been the fastest. |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by ollah2: 4:30pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
greenhulk: You aren't getting it. You listed Essentials that you feel makes iPhone special and he listed some that he feels make Android special. Whether a business man of student has time to do this and that is another argument. If you agree with your list on why iPhone is special, why shouldn't you agree with his? N.B Quit writing the system just works for iPhones as we both know it's been messy since iOS 7 |

Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Nobody: 5:20pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
ollah2:This thread was never about IOS vs Android. It says what makes iPhones special and its the exclusivity, the feel of quality when u hold an iPhone and the ecosystem. If someone says he lost his iPhone, then u know he lost an expensive phone. when someone says he lost his Android phone or his Samsng phone, for what is worth an Android phone can be a $50 phone or a $1,000 Samsung Galaxy note, but an iPhone is always premium. |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by ollah2: 5:41pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
greenhulk: Yes I know but we should always remember that there are readers that knows little to nothing about these things. The bolded is wrong, because it could be iPhone 4 or 4s or 5 or something. Would you consider these "very expensive"? |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Nobody: 5:46pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
ollah2: iPhone 4. 4s etc vs the phones of it's time ? Still expensive. And in fact iphones hold their value more than most phones out there. |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by ollah2: 5:51pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
greenhulk: I never said iPhones don't hold their values same way HTC did back then and Pixel is presently but people still use these phones all In the name of I use an iPhone. Would you consider such loss an expensive one because it's an iPhone? |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Nobody: 6:09pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
ollah2: Of course I won't consider iPhone 5 an expensive phone in 2018. But for the sake of the argument I believe we are talking about recent models. |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by ollah2: 6:12pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
greenhulk: You didn't say recent phone |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Nobody: 7:12pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
greenhulk: is the grammar too difficult to understand? I stopped at essentials and talked about customization. Where did u see SwiftKey is not on ios. I say keyboards. Etc. Lol u sef just dey rush tackle person when you no go read. Shei na me and u argue for one thread about Samsung s7 tw and stock android. After I sent u answers with pix u no talk again. Now u don come here to argue with me. Lol U can't restore your settings without titanium Backup. U can restore apps but what about the data? Lucky patcher can't restore apps, it is used to mod apps. And if u are a true android user like me, u can't do without Lucky patcher Busy box Titanium backup Root And twrp. You can't. I guess you're just a normal user. Anyway thanks for any corrections though. |
Re: What Makes Iphone Special? by Androidking: 7:13pm On Apr 10, 2018 |
greenhulk: The topic has nothing to with recent model. In fact for d fact some people are talking about recent model makes more annoying . People buy expensive phones for d name period . A phone with 4gig ram can do perfectly what a phone with 6 gig ram will do . But a rich man will go for d 6 gig ram because its bigger . D features in Iphones are not necessary in human activities .both Africa and abroad but they just pit them to make it unique but they are not just necessary that's d point . Aple made himself special over time that's his luck but the over price has nothing to do with his product .just over priced for nothing .and for because rich dudes loves people to know they bought expensive stuff |
