G+_Ebuka Daniel Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 When did they stop using the term "iPhone killer?" Was it when android users knew they really had much better devices?...or when iOS users knew they had been left in the dust? Seriously, have others noticed the term absent these days too?

G+_Elbert Westcott Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 Sad (for me with my iPhone), but true. The iPhone isn't the one to beat anymore. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Froilan Rocas Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I've been noticing this as well. IPhone has lost its solid lead, with certain android models even surpassing it. I've been trying Jelly Bean for a couple of weeks now on a rooted HTC Desire and considering an android device for my next phone, notwithstanding a considerable investment in the. ios ecosystem.

G+_Rob Harrison Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 One killer app my nexus 7 has over my iPhone. Bit torrent. That's all I really use it for though. Makes a really good always on bit torrent machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G+_Michael Coley Posted April 15, 2013 Share Posted April 15, 2013 I think the biggest factor is improved Android phones that are equal or better than the iPhone, but there's also the iPad issue. While I never hear "iPhone killer" anymore, I do hear "iPad killer" every now and then. I think that's the new tech Holy Grail that people compare everything too.
