    Why do most people hate TouchWiz?

    I would agree with this. A lot of things don't seem cohesive. My other issue that has been mentioned is that compared to devices I have tried with a stock Android, it can be laggy at times.

    Anyone else plan on getting the iPhone 5s ????

    I would agree that once you find a system and get used to things its not that hard. But even as a pretty tech savvy person, I will admit the initial change took me some time to get used to. I can see it frustrating some people.

    Question from a newb re rooting

    Ok, I had to put this on hold for a bit but I am looking into it again. From looking around it seems that CF Auto Root is likely the easiest option. [SGH-I337M] CF-Auto-Root [CANADIAN MODELS ONLY] - xda-developers What I am not sure about is how I proceed with installing ROMS as this...

    If I run battery to empty Nexus 7 won't start up (after charge) unless I connect to computer

    Re: If I run battery to empty nexus 7 won't start up (after charge) unless I connect to computer I found this as well. I also found it seemed to take awhile for the charging to start.

    He was going to buy a z10

    Even a lot of diehard BB fans wouldn't give the same praise to the Z10 as far as a communication tool though. A lot of them prefer their older Blackberries to the Z10 in that regard.

    My Rant on the iPhone 5s

    I agree with most of your post for sure. I was completely satisfied with the performance and reliability of my last iPhone. But, as with a lot of other Apple users, the screen size became an issue when it was time to upgrade. Unless you want a smaller phone for portability reasons, It's...

    My Rant on the iPhone 5s

    Same old thing is improving an already great camera though. Something that is a big factor in a lot of peoples choice of phone now. As someone else in the thread said, those camera updates seem to get lost in the shuffle a bit.

    TouchWiz vs. STOCK

    I don't have a Note 3, but as a newer Android user, I find the thread interesting. I wouldn't call my S4 'laggy'. Buy, when I use my Nexus 7 (2012), which is my only experience with 'stock' android, I do find it to be a lot peppier. I find navigating around it simpler as well which also makes...

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    I hadn't commented on any Facebook apps posts yet, but I was thinking the exact same thing. Coming from an iPhone, the Facebook app sucked on it too. And every update seemed to cause bugs, which would be partially fixed in another update... and then the cycle would start all over again...

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    I will look into it. The big problem is, there are SO many methods available, and when you do research it get's really confusing. Some are outdated, some don't work for some carriers etc etc. I am not saying it's a ridiculously hard process, but for a newb to the platform, I find it...

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    I love stock android on my nexus 7. If I could have afforded the Google play s4 outright, I would have gone that direction. That being said, with the functions I don't like in touch wiz disabled, and using nova launcher I am quite happy. It took a lot of fiddling to get to that point though...

    Hello everyone, new here from an iPhone 5 to S4

    It wasn't but I downloaded it because I like the keyboard on my nexus 7. It's my favorite out of the ones I have tried, but I still don't like it as much as the iOS keyboard.

    Hello everyone, new here from an iPhone 5 to S4

    Can anyone tell me if there is a keyboard that is iOS like? I always see the iOS keyboard getting knocked, but I have tried 3 different keyboard on my S4 now, and I still prefer the iOS keyboard on my old iPhone.

    S4 not as good as an iPhone

    Just an interesting point, I found the Twitter app on iPhone would drain the battery like crazy. I do find the iOS versions of some apps to be better, but there are exceptions.
