Two Weeks with the iPhone 6s: An Android user's perspective - Part 2

[davislane1]

To summarize the entire thread:

Buy an iPhone if you want basic functionality in a premium package. Buy something else if you need more than this.

Ahh... That's a NO!... In some cases maybe but it is not the norm.

Some cases? Almost every app on my iPhone allows me to do this. Ignoring Apple's first party apps, I'm able to do this in the likes of WhatsApp, Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, 1password, Timehop, FitBit, Dropbox...the list goes on.

With regards to the design aspect, is anyone with me when I say that the 5s is still the most beautiful design yet? Take the space grey version - all one colour, beautiful dark silver trimmings, and hardly any sign of signal lines. The iPhone 6 range is ugly in comparison - with its plastic-looking shell, silly white signal lines, the single speaker-holes at the bottom, and that TERRIBLE bulky camera. What were apple thinking!?
Needless to say, I am holding out for the iPhone 7.

With regards to the back button, it really is not necessary. Yes, it would be nice, but it is not NEEDED like the Home button, volume buttons, and power button are. The back button in other phones is, in my opinion, both ugly and unnecessary. Apple give you what you need.
- My advice to those avoiding iPhone for the lack of back button: you have a phone that grants you access to the whole world at a few taps - do not be so lazy by wanting to save a few taps to get back!

I've always been an Apple user - and the greatest benefit comes only if you use Apple devices in addition to the iPhone (such as Apple TV, Macbook, iPod, iPad, etc.) because everything is seemless. Otherwise, don't waste your time and money.
