How is the connection faster, in which way ?

Was your old phone also 4G ? I mean 3G was just a slug.. :willy_nilly:

Exactly I had a 3G phone before. It was super slow compared to my new phone.

 

[Joe the meek]

Damn right I was excited for my 4G phone and am pretty damn happy I have it. I have a faster connection and it's rare for me to have issues with stuff loading now, unlike before. Soooo I guess that means good for you that you couldn't tell the difference. I, on the other hand, notice the difference.

BTW brand of phone VS connection speed = two completely different things. Which means my wanting (and now owning) a 4G phone has nothing to do with a phone that you can't even get 4G on in the first place.

Likewise, I'll race you with with me running numbers and you using excel OR you using PowerPoint and myself using Keynote, and I'll wipe you off the foor every time

Then again, for some, computers are like phones, good for socializing on the Internet and watching videos :24:

Didn't realize this was some tech/nerd competition. BTW why so butt hurt over me knowing what I wanted in my technology? Hey I just got a new laptop too do you need me to tell you what I knew I wanted in that too and made me be picky with my selection? Do I also need to tell you why I chose to run multiple video cards in one of my computers instead of just one? Or why I chose a certain monitor over another. Or hey how about why I prefer certain towers over others....pft.

Sorry but your little "I'm better than you" comment is hilarious. I've never once told you I'm better than you, but I guess that says something about me as a person huh? Yea I'm glad I don't need to do that just to make myself feel better....unlike someone else here huh? BTW it's probably best not to say you are better at something than another (especially someone you know so little about) that usually turns around to kick ya in the ass.
One more thing, just what exactly do you think makes you smarter and/or better with numbers...or anything for that matter...than someone else just by simply posting on a forum? hmmm

 

[Minderella]

My iPhone has 3G, but I've never noticed an issue with it because where I live I don't even GET 3G. I have to go at least an hour away to get it. *shrugs*

Good place to jump in on the 3g
Browsers that use compression
In a nutshell the data is compressed at the server then decompressed by the browser
Android
Opera mini
Dolphin mini

Save data and greatly enhances surfing speed...and I do mean greatly

Dolphin is good...but Opera mini simply kicks ass
There is opera mini and opera mobile.
Opera mini will run about 95 percent of a page you throw at it {features}..it is also the one that saves huge bandwidth and is very fast...it wont help much if you have a super fast wifi connection etc but for 3g limping mobile networks...the speed advantage surfing is tremendous....I highly suggest getting it.

On to Opera mobile ...A kick ass browser for a mobile phone when you need a page to function as it does on a desktop..some pages can get rather complicated with forms drop down menus etc.

Dolphin HD also the same as Opera mobile...very versatile browser.


I dont know if they will work on an apple...I do know however they would be crippled due to non flash support on the apple...Which is a deal breaker for me with the apple...as it dont come with any type of flash support

Dont get me wrong the iphone is a quality phone..but how can they consider themselves king {the Cadillac}..when android is the Cadillac and apple is the Chevy.

Another thing that pisses me off is apple can and will refuse warranty work to a home computer if a smoker has been in the house.
I am not talking about them going to your house to work on the unit..I am talking about taking the unit in then getting refused.
Employee safety...what a crock of shit..No more dangerous than that same smoker who came in and gave you his hard earned money for the product...Fucking hypocrites...An apple computer is a quality machine,,its their policy that sucks however.
Rather arrogant pricks ...same for the way they run down windows in commercials...totally uncool...That would be like whirlpool having a commercial stating other machines have faults such as General electric ...that wouldn't fly very well...The law suits would fly and rightly so.
You simply advertise your features and slogan your step ahead of the competition
Apple corp is an arrogant of a prick system that seems to be above the law and has as much cooth as a copperhead snake.
Good products but they arent getting my money.

Apple rant over

Apologies. I just find people who use phones for play amusing.

Since you really have no clue about Apple products, I'm guessing you have no clue to what I was referring to when I mentioned Numbers and comparing it to Excel. Enough said:24:

Too bad my phone is used for everything from play, work and to school so my phone is more than just toy.

Not sure what makes you think I have no clue about Apple products. Didn't realize that just because I don't buy them makes me uneducated....haha again, you make me laugh.
Also do not forget I use Excel everyday so when you talk about numbers and Excel I'm pretty well informed. However, I am not informed in your world of snide remarks. So please do educate me if you weren't referencing the literal uses for Excel. Also please do educate me as to why, again, you seem to think I have no clue or that you know sooooooooooooo much more about things than I.

Was your old phone also 4G ? I mean 3G was just a slug.. :willy_nilly:

educate me here

4G relates to speed on the network? so 4 is faster than 3?

which phones are 4G?

I have an iPhone 3GS which suits me but eventually i will want an upgrade

Because of your comment about Numbers.

Numbers is Apple's version of Excel.

Apologies, when you were asking questions about a 4g phone, you struck me as a teenage girl just wanting something for the sake of having something.

I have the feeling the only thing you know about Apple is what their product looks like

I would sincerely love to know what "work" you do with your Smart phone. I've used a Droid phone for a year for work, and it was very limited in what it could do compared to a tablet.

From my limited knowledge of the computer world, I think there are better operating systems than Windows and what Mac has to offer, I just don't need it right now. That said, learn to work a Mac compared to Windows, and Mac really does make things simpler IMO. However, I don't consider myself a Mac "groupie".

I don't get people buying apple BECAUSE it's apple. Equally I don't get people avoiding it just because it apple. I have an iPhone because I enjoy the iPhone. I use a PC because I prefer to use a PC. It's down to preference. My bf has an android and I don't like using it. I just prefer the feel of my iPhone.

3G is like being on Dial Up

4G and LTE is like being on High Speed internet and higher speed internet

As an Android AND iPhone owner, I can say that I find the iPhone to be far superior to my Android. And I am ECSTATIC not to see that damn "storage full" message that I was getting EVERY SINGLE DAY on my Android.

Is it androids fault if your storage is full?
How did you cope with the tiny screen of the Iphone?
