New iPhone 6 Features

[Omah Android]

I do not know what the advantages of this iphone 6
whether the above Smasung S5?

Well how about the camera ? and the 6 is MUCH better then the n4. faster and better.

Can the iPhone 6 play Ogg or Flac and can I drag and drop an MKV file from the computer without using iTunes into the phone and play it?

It should be faster, it's 2 years newer. But how fast can you clear off that ugly homescreen full of icons and replace it with a custom widget?

We should not even be comparing the iPhone 6 to a 2 year old phone. All the things people are screaming about on the iPhone 6 (omg NFC, omg larger display, omg widgets), have already existed for at least 2 years on Android. The Nexus 4 is actually better in some ways because it has widgets on the desktop as well, not just stuffed in a notification panel. And it has 3rd-party everything, not just keyboards.

The Nexus 4 also does not compare to the iPhone 4...it is better in every way. Probably even the camera, and the Nexus 4 has a crappy camera. Not only did it have a larger display, but also a far higher ppi.

It is also a fraction of the price of the iPhone 6. Because it is 2 years older.

It has none. This is Apple playing catch up. Samsung has all the same stuff. Samsung also has better multi-tasking for large displays (split screen) and has built-in pen support.

You could argue that the "continuity" feature is better than Samsung. Android has that also, but it is not nearly as mature. Apple always has great CPUs and Cameras (not always top of the line, but among the top 5). The Display is likely to be great, but the best display tested so far is on the Galaxy S5, not the iPhone. "the Galaxy S5 is the Best performing Smartphone display that we have ever tested" - Samsung Galaxy S5 Display Technology Shoot-Out - That is a big deal coming from them.

WOW the iphone 6 is still better then touchwiz!

LOL, no. As awful as touchwiz might be, at least I can cover up that mess with Nova Launcher.

There is no way to cover up the iPhone's hideous and ancient icon grid. You are stuck with it.

Thats one of the nice things about Android...we're not in jail. So there is no need to void our warranties to do stuff on it. Google treats it's users like adults.

How many years did it take to get to that point and how much of a cut is ATT getting.
How much of an impact will that 1-2 percent ATT gets will start impacting the cost of our goods and services.
Also what if you don't want to use a Mastercard?

This is all part of the crippling effect caused by the carriers wanting their share.

When the carriers want to get a cut, how much of that cost gets passed to the consumer?
The system should just work as it already has with mobile payments being a reason to get a smartphone and data.

You can use most major credit/debit cards with google wallet

Your post keep coming up as a quote ? LOL

You don't need a Mastercard to use Paypass....I have a Visa debit card loaded on my Google Wallet and use a Paypass terminal several times a week.

Paypass is owned by Mastercard. Instead of allowing every possible NFC terminal, it has to be Mastercard Paypass.

That locks the Merchant in if they wanted to use NFC payments for Android phone operators.

 

[cpaight]

Gotcha....thought you meant you had to have an actual mastercard to even use it.

Touchwiz is on overlay not a phone
