My Iphone is a piece of crap
Long story short.
I got my 3GS warranty replaced 4 months ago due to the OS being a glitchy piece of garbage. Last night, my phone gave me the 10% warning, so I plugged it in. 10 minutes later it dies, so I try a different outlet, the charging screen comes up so i left it. This morning it was dead. I was peeved to say the least. So I put it into my speaker dock...no charge I then go downstairs and put it into my computer. The charging screen comes up, two hours later it hasnt charged a bit and the screen is still up. Its a 4 month old phone. Seiously? and now im assuming that the battery is shot and isnt taking a charge. I hate this phone with a firey passion, its been nothing but a problem since september. ![]() ![]() ![]() |

my first brand new iphone 3g had a bad battery right from the store. They replaced the phone with a refurbished one after 5 days of owning it. So much for getting a new phone!
As for Android, every model is different. I had a samsung captivate which was replaced 3 times - a POS. Then I moved over to the Droid X, couldn't be happier. Just received the latest Gingerbread update and the battery is amazing now. I had 50% charge left after 23 hours of unplugging from charger. Droid X is a solid phone. |

Yes its 3GS. Its my third one in 16 months. They ll keep glitching out nd becoming useless.
I hate that I now have to go to the apple store. Ill tell you how my convo with the genious will go. "Hve you tried turning it off nd on?" "You need to reinstall the OS on the phone." I hate their stock im the retard in the store answers. Ohh. nd im still 2 months away from being able to upgrade. |

Are you unlocking/hacking the phone? I'm pretty sure your running the latest iOS software on the 3GS. Simply put, the 3GS doesn't have the power of the iPhone 4. iPhone 5 is coming out in a few months. Your almost 2 generations behind.
Anyways android seems just as capable, if not better, than iOS. iOS 5 is just sweet though |

And yet some people have the nerve to curse me out when I say the Droid X eats the iPhone and its pathetic to own one because Apple just pwnd you.
They yell, they argue, but 4-5 months later an apology comes along as well as questions about my insurance for the droid and verizons awesome service. iPhone users beware.... its a hoax.

The only phone I would ever consider other than my iPhone 4 (which has been nothing short of perfect, with and without the jailbreak) would be a Nexus S.
