Otherwise the android experience is only really superb if you get yourself a custom rom.

Another opinion without substance. I am perfectly happy with my standard ROM.

Um yeah i've got a gnexus and i'm running basically the google release (albeit rooted/deodexed). The wife's GS2 sucked with the samsung ROM so we put jellybean stock on and it flies..

Googles stock stuff is great now tbh.

And that's the point that gets a lot of peoples goat.

Why buy a £600 iPhone when a £100 Android phone will take calls, surf the web and access the facebook app?

The answer "Because of marketing hype and the sheep effect" :S

Any reason for singling out the iPhone? There are plenty of Android phones costing several times £100 that are overkill based on the standard you've set and they sell by the truckloads too.

But that's beside the point, I just don't get why some care so much and are so judgemental about what others spend their money on (*).. Scrap that. I doubt most care until it comes to mobiles :/

If I wanted to buy toilet paper at £100 per sheet, it's my own business and I suspect that I'd get more people lining up to sell me some than people trying to dissuade me :S

(*) So long as they live within their mean. And while £450-£600 (depending on where/what you buy) is not pocket change for most people, it is not going to break their bank.

Call it the "toy effect". Most enthusiasts are ironically guilty of it. They may try to pay less for more, yet bang for buck/sufficient is often a PC that cost half as much.
