I use both pure Android (Nexus 5) and iOS (5C) on a daily basis...I find comments of Android not being intuitive perplexing. It's different, of course, but give it as much time as it originally took you to get your head around iOS and it's on a par and even better if you like fiddling with s**t.

No, I'm saying it's not imperial.

Exactly. Owning and rarely showing off an expensive trinket doesn't make you a watch person as such. Or maybe it does? My dad owns a car, he hardly ever uses it, pointless for him to own really, it cost a few quid though. Is he a car person?

I'm a watch person except for the fact that I can't be bothered to wear one. Pointless things. All they do is tell the time FFS. I'm a watch person.

Exactly. Who needs an iPad! No, wait...

With Google Drive and Play I genuinely need zero onboard storage. Don't write Android off just on that. Agree about the screen though, any bigger than my Nexus 5 and it'd piss me off.

It really is. I'm close to buying one LOL

Apple measure in 0.5 and 0.9 of an inch, what's the fraction in real imperial?

Screen or recording? Screen wise the 6+ is and the 6 isn't instead being, err, 750.

Lots of 1080/240?

It's not. If the mm dimensions on Apple's website are correct it's 20mm taller than the Nexus 5.

I wonder how many of them see the irony in them measuring 0.7 of one inch. Idiots.

I agree with Nik, a few years down the line I think it likely we'll all be looking back believing them to be the best thing ever. I don't get the hate for the appearance; compared to some of the vulgar monstrosities in the watches thread they look quite elegant and refined. The Moto X for...

WTF is 4.7 inches or 7.9 inches? Are there special Apple rulers for working out how big they are? Since when are non-decimal measurements decimalised?

It really isn't unless you wear trousers with child like/sized pockets.

Comparing sizes my Nexus 5 is as good as identical to the 6...that's as big as I would want/need to go to. The 6+ is just too big for a day-to-day phone IMO. My wife's already decided that once she trashes her 5C she's having a 6+ though.

You've played about with the sound delay settings on your Sky box?

Whatever the rrp is less a £2,300 discount.

I've dabbled with 120 on track a little and my girls on their trampoline. It has it's uses, but having 240 is hardly a stand out must have feature IMO.

I didn't want to depreciate it straight line as that's not how it works in reality. I think my flaw is that I used the actual price I paid as the starting point and not the RRP, hence it being so low now. If I started with the rrp of be nearer the figures suggested.

Really? How many make regular use of the 120 fps function? It's a short lived novelty isn't it?

...and arguably a massive, even extortionate, one at that. Making a profit is one thing, openly and blatantly fleecing people while being able to convince them to blindly open their wallets is another and shows that despite a lack of innovation, the Apple marketing machine is still successfully...

I was just about to post exactly this. £160-£170 for an additional 112 gb. Amazing.

You've made me think about my depreciation calculation, I'm going to revisit it.

There is that point! i love them too, posters on the wall, countless Airfix/Tamiya models built, painted, destroyed, radio controlled models abused and trashed, that was my teens...but I always thought both road and rally versions were fire breathing monsters. Hence the shock of finding out my...

I just looked up the spec for these and wish I hadn't. My childhood dreams, ruined. 200bhp and 188lbsft. LOL Oh dear.

How many people use some form of a case? It makes perfect sense if so as the lens isn't then sunk into a recess. My Nexus 6 is just like this, when it's in its case it's perfect. When it's naked its barely noticeable. Apple will convince you it's a good thing surely!?

Why the hate?

As RDH said of all my costs so far, just over half has been depreciation. This is based on my 1 year 3 month old car with 25k miles on it being sellable privately for £10,500. Considering how swamped the market is I think that's a fair valuation.

Thanks Chris, will do. I looked back recently through some footage of my first trackday at Goodwood when it was 9 weeks old and had just 3,000 miles on it. Even though I knew what to expect it was still quite a surprise to find how good it feels and goes...
