You are the first person to embrace bloatware. I applaud this. If it doesn't bug you, then that's awesome. In all honesty, it drove me crazy. Little Sprint updates, stuff I could not delete, etc.

I much much much prefer the iphone with no bloat and no phone logo ruining the look of the phone.

Yeah they don't really bother me at all, as I said some of them are useful and some of the ones I rarely use just sit in the app drawer. Also the s3 doesn't come with nearly as many preinstalled apps like older android phones and other phones like the motorola razr which I hear comes with quite a few.

given the inherent limitations of the iphone; its comical that some would dare complain about bloatware!

There are no limitations. Flash will soon be obsolete. He is trolling.

It's just a god damn phone.

Fuchen freex.

My uncle who I hadn't seen in 30 years whipped out a Win7 phone the other night and I was impressed by the fluid UI. Made me want to check out the 920. But why. I love my i5. Yes it has its quirks and is far from perfect but god damn I can surf the web, take amazing pics, play Missile Command, make a phone call and shoot deadly waves of pepper spray from it.

What more do I really need.

Dali nailed it.

Only Android phone worth buying, IMO, is the Google Nexus. At least you get the updates right away. But Google/LG left out a few features. The lack of LTE in the latest offering is a big issue though.

Nothing wrong with a Walled Garden. It means you can grow pretty things and watch them bloom into beautiful flowers, without the danger of being trampled by the riff raff outside.

I prefer my mobile OS to be stable and bug free and without the threat of viruses

iOS all the way!

Huge win for my i5 and Verizon. I'm on the highway in the middle of nowhere and am able to get lte speed and stream in hd the end of lsu game. Picture quality was amazing with no buffering. Here is the screenshot. Sprint never got me a signal out here.

If I didnt have the gs3, that would have been my second choice, I prefer the bigger screens.

The Google Galaxy Nexus is a pretty good phone for the money. Too bad that they do not sell it anymore. My daughter has one. Slightly bigger screen, 4g, lots of features though not as fully-functioned as an S3. For $350 unlocked, though, it was a nice phone.

That thing isn't even a phone, more like a tablet. Can it even fit in your pocket?

One of our Chinese programmers walks around talking on his Note 2 and I swear its the most ridiculous sight to behold.

Next we'll see iPad mini freaks holding LTE minis up to their ears.
