73% of iPhone Users Are “Very Satisfied” With AT&T [SURVEY]

By melissa | Published: July 24, 2010
A survey performed by the Yankee Group found that 73% of iPhone users are “very satisfied” with AT&T , despite all the negative press the cellular network has received since the iPhone launched back in 2007. Also, 77% of iPhone owners would buy another iPhone, while only 20% of people who use the competing Google Android smartphone platform would repeat their purchases. The survey was cited at CNNMoney.com , which was quick to suggest that the positive reviews from iPhone owners must be a result of a “halo effect” or “reality distortion field” accompanying the iPhone’s slick and impressive interface and features. The idea is that some users are so pleased and wowed by the iPhone’s presentation that they gloss over the downsides — in this case, AT&T’s struggle to prevent dropped calls or other problems caused by poor or lost signal

By jorge | Published: July 23, 2010
We’re sure that Steve Jobs and other folks at Apple would like nothing more than for the whole antennagate mess to clear as soon as possible, especially after Jobs’ recent apology and promise to give iPhone 4 customers a free bumper case , but the competition just won’t let them. Annoyed by the fact that Apple used their devices as examples that other phones have issues similar to the iPhone 4, most major phone manufacturers issued a statement on the issue, dismissing Apple’s claims and asserting Apple shouldn’t have dragged them into their problems. Now, in the latest ad for its Galaxy S smartphone, Samsung simply says “Hello,” but everyone who has seen their signal on the iPhone 4 unexpectedly drop will instantly recognize the true meaning behind the ad.

By melissa | Published: July 23, 2010
When it comes to Androids and iPhones, we’ve had just about enough emotionally weighted hyperbole over which device is better. For one thing, most of those arguments are subjective projections of personal opinion. For another, hey, they’re just phones; we shouldn’t get so uptight about them.
