iPhone 5 Is The Most Disappointing iPhone Ever?
megido-rev.M:
Interesting. It depends on the user, I believe. For example, I only consider something easy for myself if I can change the setting of certain tiny details.

as mentioned, I agree with your logic and stuff, but again, I must repeat myself iOS just as apple targets the masses, not the computer saavy.
and I find it a little. . .biased, your opinion saying Windows is better cause you're more used to it. . . I found it a little "odd" at first (when I first started using mac) but after you get the hang of it, you notice how its much easier to use than windows, as mentioned it has a lower learning curve, you dont have to worry about any defrags, hard drive checks or anything like that, the OS manages all that in a very efficient way

It might just be that the masses often have not as often for what they can do, but what they want to do in mind.
Also, the defrag argument is a bit iffy, because I doubt anyone in their right mind would use the Windows defragger over others >_>.

Pretty much what I have been trying to say, and this is also the direction android started taking when Google hired Matias Duarte.

Ultra laptops are using SSD and pc are moving towards SSD, so that kind of problem are pretty much disappearing, but it would have been better if windows also was build on unix like OSX :(
OSX is quite nice, and they are so much better using visual (guided fantasy) than windows, sure microsoft are trying with windows 8, but they are focusing on touch based to much, and losing its functionality, that made people want windows. Only one problem I have with OSX - You need to buy apple hardware, and their hardware design have become so boring, I almost fall a sleep when I see a Mac.

You are an enthusiast, which mean you act differently and don't have the same learning curve as consumer. Here is a question, how many of your non tech friends and family have download a much better keyboard like swiftkey or swype? how many have downloaded a new launcher or just another browser?
The answer is either 0 or only a very few, where you or another tech person have told that person to do it.
If you two don't want to believe me, or actually read up on the subject, then that it is fine. I'm most interested in android, because it is actually becoming easier to use than iOS, and they are doing so well at going after a tangible design. There are still stuff that makes you are aware of using the software, when you shouldn't. I have high hopes for the next version of android, after the big letdown iOS6 and Windows Mobile have been.

I've actually read a similar study on the ipad. Regular people don't download much from the Apple Store either, quite a lot has never even used it. I'd imagine that the hoops you'd have to go through just to get something on and off an iDevice would be beyond them as well.
How many people understand thumbdrives tho? How many regular joes equate "Plug to USB port = access media files" or "Memory card = mp3 holder"?
OT:
Just wondering. But just a few years ago, every PC user knew what a diskette was, i'd like to think people today atleast know what a thumbdrive and sd card is for?
