Title: iOS vs. Android vs. Windows 8
Post by: The_Hammer on October 06, 2013, 03:15:48 AM

Which is the best in your opinion.

I started out with iPhone 4S, then went with the S3, today I got a Windows X8.  As an adult/professional i'm really liking Windows!

Windows 8 is smooth and efficient. Don't like the lack of app support tho.

do the windows phones have apps for free music downloads like android?

also, how are the calendar's? I absolutely hate calendars with white backgrounds.. which is why I stayed with an S2 (black calendar) instead of an S3 (white calendar).

Everything is customizable.

the best apps are in the iOS ecosystem.

although, if you are a laggard and basically use your phone only to make/recieve calls and sms, you can buy whatever shit you want.

I don't know what phone should I get. Besides making/receiving calls and sms, I'd like a sharp camera and a fast internet browser, I give a fuck about the rest lol. Oh, and I hate touchscreens.  :-\

What's surprising is how you would expect windows 8 to be a resource hog like windows on pc when compared to apple but it turns out to be the opposite. Windows 8 phone uses less resources per specs than ios.

It looks pretty cool but it costs around $1000 where I live, I'm not sure about dropping that much in a phone.  :D
