G+_George Kozi Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Originally shared by George Kozi My take on the Apple - Android thing Apple - the minimalist home, white, calculated, museum like. You go in there and you feel "I shouldn't touch anything... I won't take anything they offer me to drink because I might spill it on the white furniture... remember to sit up straight if they ask you to sit" Android - the student dorm room. You go in and think "geez, I should give them a broom... but hey, here nobody would mind if I spill beer on the carpet and put my feet on the coffee table. There should be something in the middle.

G+_George Kozi Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 I don't think any of the two is superior. They are just different. For me, Apple is unnecessarily expensive, and Android unnecessarily geeky. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

G+_George Kozi Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 Neo DooM that was uncalled for, unnecessary and not that smart. Whatever your intention was, you only managed to dirty up the impression you made. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_George Kozi Posted June 6, 2015 Author Share Posted June 6, 2015 yeah, I don't get this... we ought to recognize that both companies are making stuff some people want. Some would choose one, some the other, and some would go to yet other company that make good stuff. Yep, Microsoft. And you know what? That's okay. We should be able to talk about this without it transforming into a spitting competition. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Damian Mongru Posted June 6, 2015 Share Posted June 6, 2015 Windows Phone 7 was the middle ground - that's what I thought when I first read about it, and I really thought Microsoft were onto something. In the early days there were a lot of restrictions on hardware (e.g. resolution and camera buttons etc) and software (first tiles needed to be the same, hubs etc). The ease of writing to a relative stable and constrained platform but not limited to a particular manufacturer's device. It turns out, not many people wanted to buy it.
