We have just got a blackout... Reason/s unknown but power should be back up by 1 am.

24% battery left on my phone...

Toymods?
Tcca?

I think.

I'm still literally dying from fever so I'm up so early as I can't even sleep.

It is indeed toymods: http://www.toymods.org.au/site/

 

They are a great bunch of guys there and I'm still on their forums.

Awesome stuff. Thanks guys.

That's awesome Kong, the holiday that is. Not the rest of the negative things you've mentioned.

The fact that you don't like flying and have to sit in a plane for 5 hours is awesome IMO.

I just updated to iOS 9.0.

First impressions are positive.

ive been running Ios9 beta for a few weeks. all its done for me is reinforce my thoughts of getting an android phone. 

[Sven Smergberd]

Android is better, but it's all the fucking same. Phone is a phone.

Android is better, but it's all the forking same. Phone is a phone.

 

end of the day yes you are correct. they both make phone calls, both allow me to send messages and both get me onto the interwebs. 
 

suppose ive just become a bit disappointed with constantly seeing updates come out from android that actually see like they are pushing new technology and doing something, and going somewhere, while apple seem to be same old same old with nothing new.

Yeah I didn't mean to be dismissive, I think you should definitely pick something that suits you more, and to be honest I think Android phones offer better hardware, such as the One Plus, the Sony and the Samsung. But I feel like people get caught up on the small details that will not affect their day-to-day use of the phone. My phone has a million features that I will never use, yet people whinge about these features when they are deciding which one to buy. I bought my Sony purely because it's waterproof.

 

Apple are disappointing now anyway. Make good laptops, that's about all they offer over others now, and even in that field the competition is catching up.

nah i completely get what you are saying. i suppose thats part of my reason for considering a change. apple are offering nothing new that interests me or is important to me whereas competitors are. 

example, apple now with the force touch, no use to me whatsoever. 
the battery life i also find pretty abysmal on iphones, whereas the galaxy (main one im looking at) has a much bigger battery. the camera is also better on the S6. both support all the apps i use so thats not an issue to me. 
the other thing i like about the galaxy is it has quick charging and wireless charging and NFC works. things like that interest me as what i would use. i dont really feel like apple are introducing anything new/cutting edge that is giving them a significant advantage over the competition.

Does the s6 have expandable memory and a replaceable battery like the s5?


Omg I'm joining in on the phone thread.

Also. I'm on fucking holidays

[mark300]

nope no expandable memory or replacement battery in the S6

[Adam]

Bugger. Good features on the s5 I reckon!

[Sven Smergberd]

Sony has expandable memory, it's sweet.

[mark300]

i think they are one of the only ones left doing expendable memory? 

 

i dont think that the HTC one does anymore?
