What are the shortcomings in your opinion?
Ok, so before I get into this, I just want to say I am apple fanatic.
I can understand everyone's emotional tie to iPhone but as an ex droid user, I can not help but point out the flaws in iPhone.(That goes without saying , however ,that there are more superior quality in iPhone).
I want to say these because I want apple to improve and keep their awesome product awesome.
1)I went through this ad nasuem, but I cannot help but bring it up again. Volume control is just plain does not work for me in iPhone.
It is unthinkable to not able to control volume for ringtone and others separately. Also no program to adjust them automatically between day and night settings. If this does not bother you, obviously because you never had it before. It's like Night and day.(no pun intended)
This is the type of stuff that makes you scratch your head and say " what the F@#$ were those apple engineers thinking???"
I will give you a specific example.
During daytime, I like my ringtone volume at max and text and email at volume 5. At night time, I want it to be automatically adjust to volume 5 for ringtone and volume 1 for text and email for silent. Tell me how you do this in iOS.
2)google turn by turn navigation. I don't believe I am saying this but google map and navi is pretty good product. I miss them(compare to what I have now). (AGAIN and very annoyingly)I cannot believe apple w/ ALL THAT PROFIT has FAIL to come up w/ FREE navigation for apple aficionados. It's utterly disgusting what they have fail to do so far. This 3c acquisition better materialize FAST and HUGELY. If you are apple fan, and if you think you don't deserve a KICK ass free turn by turn navi, you are in the dark. Lack of integration w/in OS is just inconvenient to say the least.
3)Lack of good email program/Lack of apple's own email program/address
(this issue might not be appropriate here)
I rather hate the fact that I have to rely on google email.
Screen size I will let it pass. I know they are waiting for technology to get better so that they can double up the res before they can up the physical size. But without a doubt, I want(at least me personally) bigger screen next year(wanted one for this year just like lot of us did).
Fight over supremacy is bigger than you think. Battle over IOS vs Android will spill over to OSX as well soon. It's imperative that apple continue to innovate IOS rather than stay stationary.
I am apple fan boy btw
