You ever look at screenshots from your previous phones just to see how much Android has progressed since then?

Liking the new google messages layout

Google needs to stop playing and come out with an iMessage competitor. People would make the switch to android

I was comparing my S8+ with my old LG Optimus M(etro) a week ago. Damn phones have came along way. That phone is smaller than S8+'s screen and yet it's fatter. My iPhone 4/4s/5s is tiny compared to the S8+ too, though those phones still look decent.

What version of Android is your couch running?

It's Apple's stock messaging app, doesn't use SMS or MMS technology to send messages. Also, doesn't have file restrictions on pics and video/gifs.

So outside of sending videos/gifs and pics, what are the advantages?

It works with Wi-Fi (obviously useful in situations you don't have service, and makes messages free from SMS character limitations) and you can message across devices (Like, you could send someone a message from your iPhone and they can respond from their iPad or MacBook.)

From 2011. Yuck.

Man, that HTC flip clock widget was everything back then, especially when they started animating the weather

The overall design aesthetic definitely didn't have much cohesion until Ice Cream Sandwich though.

I see

I actually prefer these aesthetics. Apple ruined the game with them killing skeuomorphics and making everything “flat” Jonny Ive is to blame, ole ball headed furger

 

[tekthemaestro]

I see

in short, not really a big deal unless you constantly never have service. nowhere near the gamechanger ios fans make it out to be

 

[Gordonson]

It's not just about never having service, the appeal is the seamlessness and freedom.

When you power an iPhone on for the first time and open the default message app, you're in iMessage. You don't usually don't have to think about much from there.

You send iMessage texts to someone the same way you send a regular text to a non-iPhone user. You can talk to someone that's lounging in bed with their iPad or MacBook in their hands and their phone somewhere else the same way you talk to someone whose phone is glued to their hands. You never have to leave the default app that came with your phone. It requires little thought.

Also, as I mentioned earlier; you're free from the restrictions of SMS and MMS when having convos with other Apple owners. No messages being split up into multiple pieces, no image or video compression (as far as I know.)

None of that is enough to glue me to a boring *** iPhone, but the appeal is clear.

Early versions of HTC Sense

 

[alchemist iq]

Htc sense was very resource heavy. Thats why people were rooting and using vanilla android on thier devices.

Ooops... Wrong thread

I never liked Sense.

I was heavy into rooting when I had my One M7 and the dev community was pretty big so had a lot of good ROMs I could flash.

Finally downloaded the Pie update and I'm not really a fan of the clock being moved to the left

 

[Nike Jordan]

My battery is a little worse since I updated to 9.

Dam I didn't even notice it until I read this. I guess it didn't really bother me. Looks fine tbh.
