New Iphone iOS giving you wood?

Pretty good IMO. Like the new feature that allows access to stuff without unlocking.

I kinda feel that Apple products are for liberals. I prefer the Droid.

Apple products are for liberal consumers...and for conservative investors.

My wife has a new Droid at work. It is cool..but..maybe too dam techie for an old man like me. I just figured out the Iphone. I had to be dragged kicking and screaming into this mess. A year ago...I had a flip phone.

I'm not an iPhone guy but can recognize their other products are great for specific purposes. The iPhone truly changed the world but lack of innovation has drug them down. Phone makers like Samsung and HTC have far superior devices IMO.

Positive Rep me and I'll vote for Obama in 2016

I was a smart phone hold out as well. I am with you. I just don't care about these gadgets as much as most people. I also don't want to be so easy to get a hold of

The droid just works better with my work and home computer. I never was an Apple guy.

I hate products that call themselves the latest and greatest only to be out done a year later simply by adding a few new features. I have a company iPhone 4s and I got the same thing for my kid. My wife has decided to do without a leash.

If I could get my little 2005 Nokia phone back, I'd do it in a second. But it finally broke and I got an i-phone last year.

Technology doesn't impress me; quality impresses me. We'll see how long this I-phone will last.

I'm certainly not going to go get a new one just so I can say I have the latest technology.

Same here...The only reason I got the 4s was that my flip phone died and I was due an upgrade. I have to admit that I am somewhat attached to the damn thing now.

I don't like the fingerprint stuff

I had a motorola flipphone until last year when I got a work BlackBerry. So yeah, I'm still screwed. lol

I had a flip phone as well until I tried to use it for a coin flip before a soccer game. That didn't do it much good. Had I known how hard it was to find a phone that is competent for making phone calls, I never would've done that. All I really want is something that works well as a phone and can hold my address book contents.

My GF and parents have iPhones... My GF is 21 and in college and loves the iOS 7.0 update... My parents, on the other hand, say that the new look seems as though it were drawn up by a 10 year old. I had a company iPhone in 2009-2010, but got an HTC Incredible and never went back...

This is pretty funny. Had a flip of one sort or another until about 18 mths ago, then got an upgrade to a dumb phone but it's touch screen so about a 100 IQ I guess.

Don't feel the need for all the other stuff and after seeing so many people SOOO addicted and beholden to their freaking phones I commented to my wife that I was contemplating just getting rid of the thing altogether.

No need to be reachable all the time, particulary when I'm driving with the radio on. Leave me the eff alone, especially if it's another gddam grocery list...

I bought an older, unlocked android phone (mainly because it's ruggedized - gorilla glass and water resistant). I use it when I'm outside a fair bit, which means that sweat, oil, and salt get on the screen, which makes it work for ****. I just can't see much virtue in not having buttons to dial a phone...

I loved my Samsung flip phone that was ruggedized. It had a super loud speaker and was vibration and water proof. It was a version that was used for military applications. It might have bee ruggedized for them..not me. I dropped it and ran over it with fork lift.

The new look is straight from an Android.

Smarts phones are just chip implants. Your behavior and physical location can be tracked at any time.

If I was a criminal...I would use that to my advantage.

What? It's nothing like android. If anything it's closer to Windows Phone 8.

Sorry, I thought Windows Phone ran off of Android.
