Hello. Today, I was leaving London after seeing my mother. Although she is asian and can’t use computers or phones, someone had bought her an Android phone which she had not mastered. Lots of people have shown her how to use it but she can’t do it. So she begged me not to sell my I phone six plus S meaning that if I were to sell it, she would want it as I think she is seeing many people using the I phone and for her, pictures as she sees people taking pictures with their I phones. Anyway, she said she would give me money in advance so that on the event of selling my I phone six plus S, she should have it as she said that my phone looked miles better than her android phone.
I was rather surprised but it just shows that sighted people say that the I phone looks better than the phone that she has. I was rather amused! My father who is over 70, will not touch an android, he says the I phone is great. So what does that tell us? > On 28 Mar 2016, at 17:00, Scott Granados <sc...@qualityip.net> wrote: > > Android has made improvements but it’s definitely not there.
