Question of the Day - Saturday, February 24th, 2024

What?

Color me McIntosh.

Are you team Android or team Apple? I'm team Android.

Ah! Yes! Finally!

Android. I used to be Apple. Then I got a working Note 9, which was light years better than a iPhone 5s. Buh-bye Apple Garden, I have better things to do!

I currently use a Google Pixel 4 on LineageOS 20 (android 13) and I need to put 21 (14) on it. I also keep the iPhone 5s around for iMessage for all my fruit-eating friends.

We have iphones because that's what was the best price with the package we got when we upgraded to "smart" phones.

They're still stupid.
Glares at Google Assistant.

 

[casportpony]

Neither
That said - all I've had are Apple phones because a family member gets a good deal on them and I reap the benefits.

That makes you team Apple.

Just fyi Apple has come a LONG way since the 5 btw. But everybody has their preferences so I won’t say anymore or try to convince you especially since I’m sure that’s not your only reasoning.

If I had a recent one that worked good enough I'd be using that, but the newest I have is a 2010 Mac mini. Ventura runs horribly on it, and it has a rotten DVD drive.

Yeah I know. It only runs 12.5.7, so it is way behind. But I ended up liking the Android better just because it's less of a hassle to put music on it, copy my stuff off, and I can put a custom ROM on my particular phone (Pixel 4). If I had a iPhone that was newer I'd probably end up using that along with a Android since I like having one of each around.

Both platforms are great and I think everyone should use the platform you want to. Unless it's Windows Phone or Blackberry. Good luck using either.

Ohhhh okay that makes sense!!! I just use Spotify so doesn’t matter to me either way. And I used to use iTunes.

I use offline music since I like owning my stuff and being able to get it any time. iTunes is how I had to add music to any iDevice that iOwn. It gets old the first time.

I also jailbroke my iPhone and that too requires iTunes...

@casportpony, your next question should be "what do you use to listen to music".

If I could afford Apple I'd be an Apple guy, but I can't, so... I like their ui and integration features better.
