Quintus 5,585 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 I was thinking about Samsung phones the other day though actually and resolved to get the latest Nexus handset next refresh, get the purest form of Google's OS in a slightly smaller handset to what I have now... but then I remembered you can't expand the memory. Hmm, it's a first world dilemma!Oops, wrong thread. My bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,765 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Who needs expandable memory? Apple was very smart to never include that option on their fine range of phones! Has Android gotten rid of that pesky system that doesnt allow most apps to run from an external card? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quintus 5,585 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 I believe so, yes. I find the Micro SD option extremely useful, especially for media. It's a deal breaker for me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quintus 5,585 Posted March 8, 2014 Share Posted March 8, 2014 Well, considering iPhones are probably the most useless phones on the market when it comes to media that's no surprise. I watch movies, tv and a LOT of YouTube on my phone. Plays whatever I throw at it, downloads torrents using the UTorrent app and easy to share media files with other non Apple devices around the house or at work. For that reason Androids are the ultimate smartphone multimedia devices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's up there with Piers Morgan, David Mitchell and Victoria Coren in Brits who break the smug-o-meter. They all deserve a Holiday in Cambodia, or to be more current, Syria, Sudan or the Crimea.

Quintus 5,585 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I bet you're the sort of driver who does 30 in a 60 zone.There's a difference between driving in a hurry and using the road efficiently. About ten minutes worth, which on my way to work is the difference between nabbing a parking space or not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sharkissimo 1,975 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I bet you're the sort of driver who does 30 in a 60 zone. I drive a Kawasaki BN 125A7F 124cc and do 60 or 70 on the M11 or whatever when I need to. But for driving around London? Sure, you don't want to dawdle. I'm no fan of hesitant learners or eldery drivers stick to 15mph either, but that's not excuse for doing the opposite either. There's a difference between driving in a hurry and using the road efficiently. About ten minutes worth, which on my way to work is the difference between nabbing a parking space or not. Dunno how you drive, Lee. Just talking at cross-purposes here. I was referring to twats who use their car/bike as extensions of their manhood, and go from 0 to 60 just to show off. The Top Gear generation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Hilary Bray 235 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Not always in London. Depending where you are though. I find sports cars in London a bit funny, in places like Knightsbridge where you're not exactly likely to burn rubber. Quicker to walk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
