Trendon made that video
Don't people like Trendon hate Apple for doing this?
I am not hating on Samsung, they are my favorite television company, or Trendon, it is just funny to me when someone hates one company for barely making upgrades and releasing a new product every year or changing out their cords to force everyone to buy an adaptor, yet the majority of manufacturers do it.
And they do it with everything, not just phones.
Go buy a portable hard drive. The connection that plugs into the drive itself is different with the same brands, just different models.
Buy any cell phone from any brand, the chargers change all the time.
Buy a digital camera, they are just as bad as phone manufacturer's with 2000 different kinds of cords.
TV's, used to be red, white and yellow, then s-video, then component, the hdmi, now hdmi with ethernet.

the iPhone is nice, I just can't see why anybody would want their phone maker to be able to dictate what they can do with it, what they can put on it, etc.
And Jsence, yeah, you said the phone is nice, but then cut on everyone that likes it.
Did you grow up with parents that told you that you would not amount to anything, but they love you?
Or your father would punch you in the face and then tell you he loves you?
Cause that is exactly the kind of message your statement sends
Again, it is all personal preference. I am not going to start a 12 page conversation with you about phones, but I would like to know what you can do with your phone that I cannot do with my iPhone, that I give a shit about?
I use my phone for a few things:
1. Listen to music (Pandora, iHeartRadio, music stored on the phone, etc.)
2. Watch movies when I am travelling.
3. Play games and mess with apps at times, like the internet.
4. Use as a calendar so I can get pop up alerts to remind me of things.
5. Text friends and family
6. Make phone calls
The iPhone, along with every other smart phone on the market does those things and most of them do them very well.
I could give 2 shits less that my phone will not allow me to change the icon for my text message application.
And as far as controlling what I put on it, I will reiterate, I actually like the fact that the apps are controlled. It severely cuts down on the overabundance of shitty apps that are out there.
But again, these are just my opinions.
I do not do enough with my phone that I need an open source OS on it that allows me little tweaks that I will never use.
And don't misunderstand me, the Galaxy SIII is a very slick phone.
That is what I would go with if I was not a fan of the iPhone, but I happen to prefer the iPhone and iTunes.
Sorry that you cannot understand how a simple minded individual like myself would like a phone such as this.
I must be an idiot like the other 20.34 million iPhone users as of July 19, 2011 or the 73,734,000 iPhone users since 2007.
And I am not comparing the number of phones sold, so don't reply with Samsung or Motorola or so and so has sold this many phones, etc.
The point I am making is that just because you do not like a product, there are millions of us that do.
That is why so many companies can stay in business selling cell phones, tv's, digital cameras, refrigerators, cars, etc. as it is all personal preference.
Sorry to disappoint you.
