While it looks to be an awsome phone, it looks to much like the iPhone and after the courts decision...I seriously doubt that the company that makes that phone will venture outside of china with it.

OpaQue 15 Report post Posted October 21, 2012 I doubt it... Iphone devices are optimized from every angle to give you the best performance possible. Especially in Smartphone devices... I believe what matters is the OS and App Support. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I believe what matters is the OS and App Support. iPhone/iOS - 1 Device Android ~ 1000 DevicesWhen i look at Android vs iPhone/iOS it reminds me of Windows vs Macintosh/MacOSAndroid is made for Most devices, iOS is made for one device (or very few devices)Windows is made for Most PCs/Laptops, MacOS is made with one Hardware Device Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I've used Android and iOS devices and I have to say while both are well designed and user friendly, to some respect, I have to come down on the Android side. With Android you can pick a device that will fill your needs and possibly avoid "extra" features that you don't need and as such don't have to pay for, where as with the iPhone your stuck with what Apple puts into it.

I have to say I'm really intrigued by the new Metro interface and how it will play out on the phone market. I must say that after the travesty that was the last Windows phone series and OS, I'm seriously wondering how the market and end users will accept Microsofts addition to the already swamped phone market and their reception of yet another OS.

I had a sibling who owned one and after playing around with it i find its just so Window Desktop like... Unfortunatly the Win8 phones will again be just like the Windows desktop phones since both the OS for Windows computers and phones will use the Metro interface. My problem with the Win8 design, is that it's designed for touch screens on phones and tablets, yet they are putting it out on desktop/laptops. I think it will work great on phones, how usable and annoying it will be I have yet to find out, but it looks like it will be a good OS for phones if Microsoft can make it stable and keep up with updates to it since it will be a major target for hackers since its a MS OS.
