Agree fully.
I am on a geek tech forum here in NZ, most are Android users so there is the usual anti Apple stuff. You would be surprised that it is common for Android users to have an iPad. Why? Well it is the best tablet, and its primary use is consumption. Start an app to read or watch. However, with a phone that has a greater role in managing users lives, using many apps at once, and while I really like iOS and Apple, Android makes it easier on a phone. Apple is easier and more intuitive as its a cleaner UI, but navigation between apps, toggling, back button, sharing, etc are all user friendly features that you would think Apple would have as its designed to be easy to use.
Bring the user friendly functions in, have the option of a 4" or 4.8" screen, and its a winner. We can have our cake and eat it too, enjoying the already better navigation thru the phones apps, and in apps, and in the UI, as well as the benefit of the walled garden approach = better apps, less bugs, less malware

I agree. It used to be, I LOVE my iPad, but much prefer Samsung phones, truly more features and more customer friendly options. Looking forward to see how Apple responds to the markets desire for options they want, not just what Apple wants to put out. I thought I read where Samsung is outselling the iPhone…doesn't that say it all? That is until Apple makes some changes to their phone. Keyboard and screensize…then maybe I'll be in J
Wouldn't give anything for my iPad tho J
