Motostark with another nonsense post out of left fiiieeld.. can you see the froth coming out of his mouth? RIM/PC nerdvirgin is raging hard against Apple. His mom probably didn't wanna buy him an ipad for Christmas.
seems that you, like others on this thread, are simply reading what you want to. . .
somehow, after i wrote that they have a clever and smart marketing campaign, you interpreted that as me slighting them for choosing to stress benefits over features. lol, get a grip. read my post again, but this time take off the fanboi suit. . .
did you seriously write that "what the customer thinks" is more important that statistical evidence of repair claims made to an independent third party insurance company? so a customer's perception is now more valuable that facts? uhm, sorry, i'll take the accuracy of squaretrade, which has no reason to inaccurately report actual incidents of hardware failure (since it costs them money to comply with the claims made) over the perception of buyers who have made a conscious decision to own a product that every admits comes with a cost premium.
lol, so whose posts are devoid of 'facts'?
and btw, your links actually support my contention. . .one cites design awards, while the other (cnet) gives apple good marks in design and os related areas, but in the one hardware based category (battery), they finished tied for last. also, no mention of reliability in either.
thanks for supporting my points.
Interesting thing to note on that list. Two android phones appear ABOVE the iPhone (nexus one and samsung galaxy s), and google's android-based tv offering appears ABOVE apple tv.
Also noteworthy, one of your stories comes from "macstories.net" and the other three from a site in which at least 11 of the 13 ads are apple-product specific. You should probably work on your source bias...

That's Mr. CEO of the Decade to you, buddy.
No, no....I *like* Apple. I'm typing this post right now on my MacBook.
I'm still holding out for the iPhad. I want to be even cooler than all the other Apple geeks.

Don't worry the new iPad should ship by april you can grab that or maybe the 1st generation for like $350. That's a bargain trust me. Its as awesome as all other Apple products.
Are you still attempting to make fun of a product that every major tech company is now trying to copy? Again you only make yourself look ignorant when you post.
Those must be old stats from 3G/3GS phones. The iphone4 has some of the best battery life in the segment and trounces almost all of the same featured Android handsets.
We live in Canada and the selection of Android phones available here are pathetic. The iPhone4 is just as powerful or more powerful then the Android phones here. Rather than the Android crowd trying to attack Apple every chance they get they should be making a big stink about the lack of quality handset selection from our cell providers.
perhaps it has something to do with the whole "non-user replaceable battery" aspect of apple products that gives it a negative battery score.
Our selection is pathetic because 95% of our mobile market is dominated by the incumbent telcos and their customers almost exclusively buy their devices from them because most of them don't know any better. You can't use the Canadian market as a gauge of mobile device availability. It would be like saying that a Carrera 4S is better than horse-drawn buggies in medieval Italy, so all Italian cars made today are ****.
Say what? Where are you people getting your information about replacing batteries from? ihateappleanditsmakingmeapoplectic.com?
Unless, of course, one has trouble operating a phillips screwdriver......
Two Phillips screws on the bottom steel frame release the back panel, revealing the new and larger juice-provider, classed as a 3.7V 1420 mAh Li-Polymer cell. It’s easily removable so enthusiasts can bypass Apple’s pricey battery replacement program and replace the thing themselves.

yes, quite easily done for me or you.
but considering how apple markets its devices, and who a lot of their target users are. . .yes, apparently it is an issue.
. . .but then again, that's according to a link someone else cited. . .not me.
i'm guessing that many users are finding it "pricey" as you put it, and inconvenient.
So it's gone from a non user replaceable battery (your words) to a user replaceable battery, but not by people the phone's marketed to. I wish you guys would make up your minds about which side of the fence you want to sit on. Are you "tech" guys complaining about a phone that's too simple to use, or tech guys complaining about a phone that's too simple to use but too complicated?

:lol:
They're just apple haters.... the hate isn't backed by any kind of reason or logic.

lol, if you wish to deconstruct this line of discussion, and argue semantics, go ahead. but you're basically asking me to divine what consumers who responded to an online survey meant when they scored apple products at the bottom of comparable ratings for battery considerations.
someone mentioned that it didn't make sense. i suggested a possible interpretation.
perhaps you know better than i why the battery rating is low, since you apparently own so many apple products.
for us 'tech' guys that insist on owning non-apple products, opening up a device is no big deal. i'm betting that most apple owners wouldn't feel the same way, so for them, it IS a non-user replaceable product.
maybe the rating is low because oem apple replacement batteries are, again, as you put it "pricey".
so tell us, since you appear to be wise in all things 'apple', what is so wrong with apple's battery situation that it would score so low?
