Discussion on Android and iPhone

  1. You should have tried a Windows Phone, they are dead cheap, have all the functionality you need, easy integration with your desktop, great battery performance.

    I was on Holiday in Indonesia and the waiter brought my Windows Phone back to me when I forgot it (nobody wants it). Going four days on tour through kalimantan you laugh at Android and iOS users because your battery is still at 20% at day three, while their batteries died after day one.

    I have tried windows phone and I like the interface , but the lack of apps is a deal breaker for me , see my other post - https://www.wilderssecurity.com/threads/thoughts-on-android-manufacturers.374195/
     
  3. Well apps are personal, but I have in usage order
    - yammer
    - what's app
    - linkedin
    - camcard (business card OCR app)
    - maps (build in location service and route planner)
    - traffic info
    - tele text news
    - news from a news website and two news papers
    - currency converter
    - weather plaza

    Excellent build in
    - ereader/pdf reader
    - super note
    - office
    - media player
    - bing translate


    The option to download maps and language books is really great when travelling through areas with low internet reach (or expensive roaming). I really like the live translation (uses camera and OCR to translate everything on the spot without entering data).

    Have no idea what apps I would be missing (don't use facebook, you tube or instagram, but they are available).
