I started with the T-Mobile G1 in 2008 and have been Android only since. But I decided to give Apple a try and have a new iPhone arriving tomorrow. Any tips for a crusty old Android user?

Which iPhone? I've only had Magpul cases for my iPhones but my latest on is a 6. Doesn't appear they make one for the X.

Apple gave everyone a free U2 album several years ago. Nobody wanted it and couldn't get rid of it from their libraries, you can now btw.sdc177 said:aggieforester05 said:

This is the best case I've ever found.

I backed them on Kickstarter because they had a crazy video throwing phones off of bridges and scissor lifts. I understand general hate cases on phones but this thing has been very impressive. Several bad falls and screen is still fine.

My battery life would be great too if I was limited in what I could do. iPad pro is a very amazing product, but the phones and their OS in general are just vanilla. They've made up some ground with their camera and a few features, but as long as it is an iPhone, it will still only be an iPhone.
Honestly, I just typically use the stock apps. They seem to work well enough for me, are deeply tied in with the alerting and other items and just work well with my watchsdc177 said:
So far so good. Thanks for those helping me here. I am sorry this has deeply hurt some of you. Went with the Otterbox Defender.
So if you are a heavy google person do you download google calendar, gmail, etc or do you go through the stock apple apps?

I've just done a recent switch from a long time of having android to iPhone and it hasn't really been a problem. I miss a few android features like the back button, the notifications bar, SD card, and widgets but it hasn't been that big of a deal. The iPhone definitely has a much better battery life than android, my previous galaxy phones would get overworked heat up and drain the battery regularly if they got hung up on something or if i was in a place with bad reception, i haven't had that be an issue with the iPhone in the few months i've had it.

The Moto E5 Plus has an enormous 5,000mAh battery, and Motorola claims the battery should last for 36 hours with regular use. The claim is mostly accurate. The Moto E5 Plus packs an enormous 5,000mAh battery. We were able to use the phone throughout a 12 hour work day without a problem.

A lot of people like vanilla... And a large number of people don't care about customization or removable batteries or SD card slots or whatever else the android fanboys hang their hat on...

I've been running Apple and Android side by side for 2 years. One for work. One personal. iOS is just a better more complete package. End of story.
What are the "basic productivity functions" of a phone that iOS doesn't handle?exp said:Furlock Bones said:

Not remotely true. iOS is severely limited in basic productivity functions of the OS.
