Would you prefer Android or iOS ?

The choice would be then obvious

As much as I hate htc for personal reasons, out of the 2 I'd go for the HTC however personally I would get a Sony Xperia Z2.

I've always had an iPhone but the software is all the same on every iPhone the phone isn't much different in designs from the iPhone 5 to 5s the iPhone 6 is out September, I think

It needs to have the wow factor or be different most people I know I getting bored with the iPhone. Hence why I was thinking of an HTC one m8

I'd go for the M8. Its got good reviews. However it can be difficult to leave the Apple ecosystem. I did it at the end of last year and I now my wife's iPhone 5c now looks so small.

I switched from iPhone to Android (HTC Desire) several years ago, currently Have a HTC One M7 Dual Sim.

Wouldn't switch back to IPhone now although I have used (& would still consider in the future) other Android phones

As a phone salesman I would go for the HTC it's a fantastic phone.if you can get the dot view case with it as well. If houses to get the HTC would you get the gun metal or silver?

Apple have a very locked down eco system... Android much more open.

We're an android family. Much easier to use, you don't need an application on a PC to hook it up to your pc (not that you need to much these days) etc.

Personally, I'd go nexus 5 -buy it out right fit half the cost of the above phones, then go to a sim only deal. It's pretty liberating, you only actually upgrade when u fell your phone is actually old, not because your contract has expired and you feel you need to to get your vfm.

"I was suppose to say "if you was to get""

Or "if you were to get"

We are all apple-ed up so the iPhone 6 sounds interesting. Wish it was a tad bigger though as I like the big screen phones.

I have had iPhones for the last 4years, don't think I could have an android. Only problem with iPhones is the battery. And as you say, it's pretty much the same features on every iPhone. Hopefully with the 6 they will make some bigger differences

GPS enabled? Most people I know with battery issues have their gps enabled - not really necessary unless using navigation. If on, it's polling satellites constantly.

Are iphones that poor for battery life?

I have a Nokia Lumia 820 & the battery easily lasts from 06:30 when i unplug it to 6pm when i get home.

the big rumour is that the iphone 6 is going to be coming in a 4.7inch and 5.5inch variety... so sounds like you'll be getting your wish.....

Why Bluetooth when you can viber, whatsap or any of the other multitude of apps you can get for file sharing.

iphones are only that poor in battery life if you have all your apps and gps services running at the same time... I have mine switched off and get a good 36-48hrs between charges

I dont think it does, well not in the |UK anyways.

If it was available you would have to do as I did and buy it outright (got my M7 Dual Sim from Expansys)

You couldn't get it via the phone companies as they have no incentive to supply it. Had to buy direct from HTC UK/Expansys

I have iPhone 5 and it serves it's purpose very well. My Son is pestering me to buy him an iPhone so I might give him my phone and get a new one.

Being an iOS user for as long as I care to remember has always steered me in the direction of iPhones.

I have read many stories about android apps being easily hacked and full of virus/malware, which is a plus point for sticking with iOS

From what I have seen of the HTC M8 it looks like a cracking phone with lots of plus points over 5s but I am too much of a scardy cat to try out Android.

I might hold out for the iPhone 6 and hope Apple have upped their game!

Bluetooth, use airdrop to send pics to and from Apple devices. I have a 5s in gold and it does everything I need. I would wait for the 6 which will be announced soon and then way up the pros and cons then.
