Re: So tired of hearing negative reports us anyone happy
Use your eyeballs. You have to do a double take on the s6 to see that it's not an iphone. Samsung is trying the catch up game at this point. They failed miserably with the s4 and s5. They couldn't come up with their own design and figured, if you can't beat the iphone, may as well join them (looks wise).
I think the s6 looks great but Touchwiz is still there and it's Samsung's annoying launcher. Bunch of useless to many gimmicks with none working very well.
Honestly, why are you here? If you want to gobble on some round dangly objects then go over to macrumors or something where you can have some friends to gobble with you. I'm not sure how Samsung is playing the catch up game when every single spec on the s6 blows the iphone 6 out of the water.
And you keep complaining about Touchwiz but I get the feeling you haven't used it. From most accounts, it's extremely smooth and lag free. And I know you're not used to this, but you can change the launcher so your phone looks and operates as you want it to. Don't like the way Touchwiz looks? Change it. That's why people use Android.
In the past S3-S5, Samsung did a "more is better" attitude towards features. They changed that on the S6 and decided to make it more user friendly. Is it to try to attract Apple users? Probably. Most Apple users just want some plain screens with some icons and wouldn't know what to do with anything besides that. Cutting down on options and menu items is supposed to make it easier for them.
As far as looks go and "direct copy", stop being a fool. All phone companies take cues from other companies. They see what they like and what the public likes and adapt. It's no different than any other industry whether it's electronics, clothing, etc. Like others have said, every feature the iPhone has, Android has had for years.
Oh and also, not sure if you're aware of this phone that was released before the iPhone 6:
Here's the S6 next to an iPhone 6:
Put the Samsung Ativ, the S6 and the iPhone 6 all side by side and tell me which 2 look the most similar?
Now onto what is hopefully the last question directed towards you before you go on your merry way: Why are you here? You've made up your mind. You like the pretty iPhones and you don't care about being able to customize your device. The iPhone works great for you. You're not going to convince people here otherwise because most of us have all owned an iPhone in the past and we do know the differences. I'll take an occasional stutter here and there for a device that I can set up and use however I want. You can continue to have an iPhone that every other single person owns and looks exactly the same from a hardware and software side. Now please, just go away. Your mind is clearly made up. You're not taking any of us with you, so just carry on.
