My Samsung doesn't lag when I type and it doesn't freeze up. ZTE's are known for having all kind of freezing and lag issues. Must be the Chinese spyware installed hidden on it. :tongue:
Yea the '[app name] isn't responding, do you want to close it' in ICS is the most annoying thing since the little paperclip dude in MS Office 'hey, it looks like you're writing a letter....'
Definitely agree with nickdalzell.... I've been using android too from the first version up till now and it definitely keeps getting hung up and lots of lag issues and a dozen other "speed" problems its got. The "force close" is like THE most frustrating thing in an android. Never used an iOS but heard that it never ever crashes.
]Is there any way to disable that 'not responding' alert?[/B] Never shows in GB but its so annoying in ICS. It's just like that paper clip in Office 97. Usually it shows up when loading a resource hungry game, but the game runs fine...
I've used more than the ZTE, including many. But the fragmented nature of Android and how its used on various hardware is partly why I find it always playing catch-up with Apple. To get the same performance, stability, and smooth scrolling, you end up paying the exact same price for a Android Smartphone as an Apple iPhone. So really what is 'overpriced' to you?
I am trying to save the money for a Nexus 10 but if it so much as jitters or acts up, its going back to the store.
Those who never used or owned an Apple device may not notice or care, but the retina screen and OS smoothness is something that always brings me back to Apple. Be it tablet or phone. I just can't stand performance that is like running Windows 98 on a 486.
Sorry, heard wrong.
Nothing is perfect.
My ipad 3 was only $499 at Best Buy. 16GB. I expect the Nexus 10, which has something better than the retina display( my only reason to consider it) will likely cost that much if not more.

i have never had to reboot my iPad 3 unless it was doing a system upgrade (like from iOS 5 to iOS 6, that was it) it stays on, in standby constantly, never has problems. never slows down, never crashes. apps run and close as i choose. never once do i get 'sorry, this app has stopped unexpectedly' or 'this app isn't responding do you want to close it?' (that last one is so annoying, it's as if Android is just that impatient, and reminds me of the dreaded Clippy from Office 97)
worse is the need to reboot Android almost daily. today my phone literally froze in my hand after unlocking the screen. nothing was running! then it crashed and rebooted itself while downloading from Google Play. iOS NEVER does this! you never have to reboot iOS at least not from my experience.
