Hands-On: Samsung Galaxy Alpha
Translation to English
"Samsung has long been bashed for using what many describe as cheap plastics in its phones. I've complained about this myself, and I stand by those criticisms. Devices such as the Galaxy S series (S though S5) could have been much more appealing had Samsung put a little more effort into crafting certain aspects of the phone. With the Alpha, Samsung finally shows us that it can do better. "
Translation: Samsung phones have felt like garbage because they're made of junky, happy meal toy materials.
"I am not going to say that Samsung copied any specific device or manufacturer's design, but there's something familiar about this particular choice. "
Translation: They ripped off the iPhone and made the minimum choices their legal decide...

Translation: Samsung phones are more durable that iPhones; and I'm jealous. So, I bash them.
>>Translation: They ripped off the iPhone and made the minimum choices their legal decided was enough to keep them from getting sued... again.
Translation: I pretend to be oblivious to the fact that Apple has never done anything but copy and rip off other companies. Again, I am jealous that Samsung phones outsell the iPhone. So, I bash them.
>>Translation: The user interface is terrible.

If you mean Bluecoyote, then you are right, he is the ultimate Apple fanboy. I do think that sometimes people are mean to BC for no good reason because all he is doing is providing his opinion (however stupid and misguided it might be) and he rarely resorts to personal attacks or insults, which can't always be said about BC's critics. That being said however, the fact remains that the main thing that BC does here is post snarky comments bashing every phone that isn't the iPhone, often for stupid or ridiculous reasons. I don't blame people like Zpike for getting frustrated with him for that reason.
...
No I was refering to Zpike. He hates Apple so much that if they created the cure for Cancer he would say that they either stole it or say its not really a cure for cancer its just a placebo.
...
My misgivings with Apple are numerous, well founded, and well documented. I absolutely hate the Apple propaganda and disinformation campaign and see bluecoyote as a willing piece of that machine. I take pride in disputing his comments whenever I can.
That being said, I would be more than willing to try an Apple product if they ever made anything that appealed to me. However, their entire corporate philosophy would have to change for that to happen.
It's not that I wouldn't give them credit for curing cancer (if they actually had a cure), it's that I'm sick of people acting like they cured cancer just because they recently discovered how to use band aids.
And btw, hating a particular company doesn't make you a fanboy. I'm sure there'...
