I am new here...
Have attended an annual buddies gathering dinner recently and found 8 out of 9 change phone to Samsung. All of us used iphone last year and we were surprise by this development.... do you see similar trend too?
Have some Apple Inc shares and thus thinking of exist if this trend continues....

Apple has not been innovating since iPhone 4 and iPad 2. They only change the size of their product since then. iPhone got longer and iPad now has a smaller version.
iOS also looks dated and is now more of catching up with Android in term of features.
Some people said Apple and Steve Jobs are both gone. I do agreed to this statement to a huge extend.

Left the i camp 3 years ago mainly bcoz of ITUNES! Call me "un-savvy" but itunes suck big time.me also using samsung..main reason is the android OS..
but me not going to change my phone so regularly though
Also didn't wanna be trapped by the vicious i strategy to tie all all isheeps down within its eco-system.
Have been a S fan since then. S3 and Note 2 - way ahead from another Galaxy!

you guys should know that smart phone's battery will always drain up very fast..
anyway, me do not use too much of media on my phone..
mostly for sms & call + simple data check

Once you start discovering the flexibility of android, there's no turning back.

I stick with iPhone only because it is more secure.
Seriously, there is no major difference between iPhone 3GS and iPhone 5.
Android/Google are different. They are really innovative.

I think it has got to do with the telcos and their promotions.
This time they seem to promote samsung more.
For me, I am loyal to android!
Senior
I would even rate HTC more highly than iphone.

What do you all do with your old handphone?
For me, I just keep them, can't bear to part with them.
My first one bought in 1997 is still with me.

I gave up iPhone and ipad for Samsung note 2. The SIRI and iPhone ios6 maps did the damage...
mutant powerpuff
The IOS6 drains the battery tremendously, right?
My kids' Iphone battery also drain so fast. Sometimes one portable charger also not enough to last especially when they are out the whole day.
To me iphone is like merc, bmw etc.
Android is like economical and practical japanese/ korean car.

Most of my friends now are using Samsung S3 or note2. I'm the only one using LG haa haa haaa.
Senior
Note 2 battery life is amazing.

How much extra you need to pay?

Much is a relative term.

I only kept my first mobile phone. The rest I just traded it in.
