Re: Samsung smart phones, I'm so confused. - CJsNvrUrly - 05-17-2014 I've had an iPhone and now have an S3. The thing I miss most is the seamless sync'ing. Contacts especially.

Re: Samsung smart phones, I'm so confused. - CJsNvrUrly - 05-17-2014 Yes, Black. I really want to use SOHO Organizer for my contacts, calendar, and so forth, though. I'm probably creating my own personal hell. Re: Samsung smart phones, I'm so confused. - silvarios - 05-17-2014 Perhaps helpful to gettng SOHO organizer working with your phone? http://blog.eltima.com/2012/04/syncmate-tips-issue-4-syncing-soho-organizer-with-android-win-mobile-or-any-other-device.html Re: Samsung smart phones, I'm so confused. - silvarios - 05-17-2014 STL wrote: I've never used an iPhone as a personal device, but I have a decent amount of experience with iOS with my two iPod touches and an iPad 3. I switched to Android from iOS and while Android is far from perfect, on balance I have been much happier with Android's many permutations than iOS's stifling walled garden. Luckily, I got to experience other smartphone OSes, feature phone OSes, and PDA OSes prior to the launch of iOS and Android. Even after the launch of either OS, I continued to use other alternatives in addition to the two big dogs. Truthfully, I do my best not to fully wed myself into any specific ecosystem. I loathe vendor lock in. Any reasonable user can make the switch to Android or really any other alternative mobile OS. Particular to Android, the flexibility of the OS and the breadth of supported devices means almost anyone can find something that fits their use well enough to be happy. While I've always found iOS and its many limitations more challenging to live with, all philosophical issues aside, even I could make the most of transitioning back to iOS as primary device. |
