how iphone works
I want say thank you for having Tracfone Reviewer ! I just bought a leftover new 16GB iphone 4S GSM and transferred my number, minutes, and all and it took about a half day for it all to transfer but it worked. I am about to transfer a second phone the same way.

I bought my SIM cards at Walmart. We will see how this works over the next year and if they can keep the minutes, texts and data competitive. I have been using Tracfones for about 12 years starting with the kids heading to college. My daughter always said I want a real cell phone and I said when you are out of college and paying your own bills you can chose whatever you want to pay for. If the Apple iphones had been available earlier she might not have been so horrified by Dad's frugality.

Tracfone is been quirky and sometimes things take hours to resolve but they are inexpensive and for me that is the bottom line. With the BYOP program they are getting into the new century. Again, thanks for your tips and promo codes, I just wish I had found this website sooner !

All of these widgets look out of place unless you follow a strict color scheme. Even then, consistency is still hard to achieve unless you have a theme. I used to have tons of widgets on my home screen until I found out they bogged my phone down, it was almost unusable. Widgets may be cool for computers but for now, they suck for phones. Probably my biggest complaint with Android is its terrible battery life.

It's pretty consistent across all manufacturers. When I had an Android phone, I would be lucky to get a full day's use out of it. I had to buy extra chargers for work and the car just to trickle in a few watt hours into these little lithiums. 8 hours of use is common. Why do I have to turn my brightness down just to squeeze in an extra hour, Why do I have to get a task killer and babysit these background apps,

Probably the biggest question that comes to mind is why do companies make these awesome smartphones and put tiny batteries in them, All touch screen smartphones should have at least a 2Ah(2000mAh) battery. Most smartphones have at the most, a 1500 mAh battery which is pitiful considering they're powering GHz speed smartphones.

Those that say their Android's battery life is fine is kidding themselves. No one should expect 8 hour of real-world usage. A smartphone should last at least a full business day. Each person has their own requirements but suffices to say, 8 hours was not good enough for me. Speaking of GHz speed processors, I still feel new Android phones aren't living up to their spec sheets.

Back when 528MHz processors were the standard, we should be thankful we have 1 GHz processors. The problem is things still feel sluggish with 1GHz Snapdragons, Hummingbirds, OMAP's, and whatever the new Arm A1000 architect they've released. I love watching countless 'iPhone 4 vs Latest Android” videos. The iPhone often holds its own with weaker hardware.

I'm not an iDrone by any means. I don't even own an Apple product. However, I can appreciate Apple optimizing their software with their hardware. This means many Android phones feel sluggish with good hardware. Yes, the new breed of GHz speed processors are fast but I always detect a hint of stutter here and there that bothers me like a hangnail.



Most third-party Android apps have a weird opt-in that requires you to give up your privacy. These apps often get access to your data and location. Why does a third-party app need to know where I'm located, The problem is you cannot install these apps without giving them access. After a while, it becomes so common, you don't even think about it anymore. Click next, next, accept, install. You want access to my GPS location,
