lets compare that Apple just "invented" Swype according to Tim Cook
It's been around since the Omnia 2 phone

did you watch the Conference?
As I stated before, post up a list of Android devices which are on a quality level such that they are equal or better than my current devices. I truly want to check them out. Especially when it comes time for my next phone upgrade.you do realize every time you compare the "without delay" crap you are comparing something Apple does not have, to what is basically the equivalent to the android App drawer right?Ios does not have true home screens, it's a glorified app drawer
Does Android offer something similar to Apple Care and not through the cell service provider? Last one I had, which was some time ago, it wasn't available and VZW's standard insurance was less than adequate.
Does Android have something similar to iMessage and FaceTime? I've found those key to keep in touch with my family overseas and on the East Coast. FaceTime has always worked better than Skype, IMO.
I dislike going into the APPL store. Whenever I go, I request to deal with the manager to hopefully avoid stereotypicals.

Samsung may offer something similar to Applecare, since they now have their own stores.As I stated before, post up a list of Android devices which are on a quality level such that they are equal or better than my current devices.

You do know why Facetime works so much better right? it's because less people use it since it is locked to iOS and Macs. My brother used to use Facetime a lot when he was in Afghanistan to see his kids, but for some damned reason, it failed and we had to go to Skype so he could see my grandmother's funeral. Talk about a crappy time to fail
It's a different experience. Apple controls the hardware and software. Android does not have that luxury. Hangouts is closest to iMessage/FaceTime.As I stated before, post up a list of Android devices which are on a quality level such that they are equal or better than my current devices.

I've never had Applecare.

Lots of folks I worked with overseas and who stay or work on military installations say that they can't FaceTime anymore.

then don't whine about it
iMessanger is a huge PITA if someone goes off of iOS, it does not like changing back to regular textingit had worked since but just not that day. Now he is back so he doesn't need to worry
User error. I've owned multiple android phones from the original G1 with 1.0 software forward. Never replaced a battery until I bought two extended batteries for the galaxy nexus last year for my trip out west. Its nice to pop a cover instead of having to perform surgery because crapple builds obsolescence into their products to force the ignorant masses like the bald bear here buy another.
already been done in this thread.
THIS x11ty billion... and I don't like that Apple stores a copy of my messages on their servers, with no ability to delete them.then don't whine about it

I don't know the details of Apple Care but when I bought my old phone from Best Buy, I had this warranty that was $10 a month and they would replace my phone no matter how I damaged it. It was well worth it when I jumped in the pool with it.
I have no idea if they still have this though. I bought my old phone about 2 years ago.

Swype was great for years. Now I use Swiftkey Flow (Swype with Swiftkey's quality predictions), but you wouldn't know about replacement keyboardsWGAF. It doesn't work worth a damn on the S5. Great idea, terrible execution.
These are from your reply:
S5
HTC One M8
Sony Xperia Z2
LG G3
Google Nexus 5
All of those phones should be considered as equal or better? If so, I'll have a look.
