My bad. Question was based on something I observed on another phone vis-à-vis my Asus. But I’ve discovered it was just a case of differing protocols. I’ve figured it out now so should navigate my way ok if I should pick up the GSP. Thanks:+1:
But since we are on this, might as well ask…I would really prefer to remain in the same ecosystem and was wondering where I could buy a zenfone with good battery life but not so clunky as a tab.
Not sure that Asus sells phones in this market…but you might not be resident in Nigeria, or might know where to buy. On the other hand, you probably won’t find a Zenfone that will match the pricing of the GSP. With those points in mind, purchasing a Zenfone to stay within the ecosystem is a legit reason.
Oh, very much resident. Anyways seems its a vote for GSP. Probably nose around CompVllg for it next week.
What’s your experience so far, and where exactly did you buy yours S+?
Everybody loves flexibility, I believe you love it too. 
Why use an OS that gives you the same content everyday and less ability to customize.
Windows is selling because it is very customizeable.
I see no reason why i should use iOS and be locked in a cage.

I mean, your font choice is pretty terrible on this image. Perhaps Steve Jobs foresaw things like your taste when he built the walled garden.

Having access to poor font choices makes an OS bad now?
You not liking someone’s decision doesn’t make it an invalid choice. It’s simply one you choose not to make for whatever reason.
The arguments against Android here are uninformed at best.
If you give people the ability to choose and they choose poorly, does that reflect badly on you who gave choice or them that chose poorly?
You argue poor font choice. The feature isn’t the choice a random person made, but the fact that they can make a choice in the first place. That IS the benefit. If they choose something ugly, that’s on them. As long as they are happy.
I like how people love to insinuate Apple doesn’t come with bloatware, yet nobody likes Stocks, Game Center or the Compass app they can’t uninstall or hide. You can look at it any way you want, but it’s still unwanted, unnecessary programs on your os. Bloatware.
It’s alright though. It’s not cool to own an Android device. I get it. I’ll just suffer here with my ability to customize, removable batteries and an external memory.

There’s no call for this, guys. There are enough Android vs iOS threads on every tech forum out there. C’mon, Radar could do without this.

You’re only making my points for me.
I don’t believe in this “ability to customize” because more often than not, the customizations are shit like your friend’s above. Your customizing just because you can. There’s no added value to the shit customizations besides the little pride you get from it.
And removable batteries and external memory? Why on earth would I need that?
I also never said Apple didn’t come with bloatware, but I did say it was an infinitely superior device with regards to user friendliness, which is kinda the point of a consumer device.
Since you’re trying to have the last word here, let me put a pin in that plan by asking you this question. How does someone else customizing their own Android device affect anyone else’ quality of life? It’s like hating iPhones because some people chose to put theirs in ugly cases.
That’s not the world Steve wanted us to live in.

Sorts kinda related but not really thoughts:
If you’re classist and you know it clap your hands …
I respect everybody’s opinion and view. its all down to preference really. IOS feels smoother to use in terms of functionality which android can take a que of their page in how to design an os but in the end thats what pure stock android does. the lags and overheating really happen on other OEMs like samsung, htc, lg but not really on nexus devices. looking at this gionee which i particularly like it does borrow a couple of design features in its ui from ios. i believe its called trying to keep it clean. but then again with customization be ready for constant battery draining (All those suggested battery savers drain your batteries) and a constant reminder steve aint God. whats with the whole world steve wanted us to live in comment jeez guys pls. I like my android cos of its openess, wish it could run as smooth as ios but then if the only phones available were apple prod. many of us wouldnt be typing right now

I am very glad you mention choice, we are and should be allowed to make them. I will do what soothes me and me alone because it is my phone, my PDA, I should be allowed to do whatever I want with it, not being restricted at any point.
About the choice of font on this image, Improvements will be made.
Thanks a lot.

Android Vs iOS is something that will be talked about everywhere.
Its fun.
Truth be told, all phones freeze. I don’t use my friends iPhone 4 that worth’s about 20k because the opera mini freezes. If i spend the same 20k on a brand new infinix hot 2, I wont experience that. Besides the phone heats up and the infinix hot 2 doesn’t.
Opinions and choices though.
