Yeah, you both just took my post horribly out of context. In that post I was responding to Paul saying he used his phone 99% for the browser, and I said (paraphrasing), 'well it's called an iphone for a reason, not an ibrowser or whatever.'

Actually before that you said

Makes very little sense to blame the physical phone.

My post was aimed at correcting that misconception.

Question for anyone who can answer, think Pete or Deej might be able to.

Been in the market for a tablet for a while (decided against the iPad) and my sister needs a new phone was gonna sell her my Nexus 4 and get the Note 3 then stick stock Android on there. Is this recommended? The only way I would touch a Samsung again is if all that TouchWiz shite was gone.

Think the biggest stock Android phones after that are the HTC One M8 & the Nexus 5

Are you saying you're looking for a large android phone?

There's the Note 3 but there's also the HTC One Max. Rooted the Note 3 is probably better just due to the camera hardware, the HTC One Max is beautiful though.

Yes mate just a large phone. Was gonna get a tablet but no need cos everything I'd do on it I could do on a phone so no need for two devices.

Didn't know about the HTC One Max

Camera doesn't bother me, Nexus 4 camera is pants really so it'd be an upgrade. Gonna look into this HTC. If there was an M8 Max I'd go for that probably.

Did you check it out? I think it's the biggest android phone. If you can't get it, I'd go with the Note 3, which is the next biggest. I wouldn't try to use the M8 as a tablet - it feels fairly small at 5 inches. The LG G3 is 5.5 but unless you live in Korea I don't know when you can get it

Story of my life.

As for the answer to the question being asked: I have an iPhone 5s.

Have an iPhone 4S that's still in great condition after 2 years. Don't see the point in getting an upgrade. Not much into phones anyway.

I did, but from all the reviews it seemed more like a HTC One Mini but super sized, similar to the Galaxy Mega 6.7 being more of an S4 Mini super sized. They cut corners on build quality too, if it was literally a HTC One just bigger I probably would have gone for it.

I'm gonna wait to see what Google do next with the Nexus.

Does anyone on here know if it's possible to get all paid apps on Android for free?
