New cell phones

     After a week of being thoroughly distracted by Smash bros. I get a text saying that my free upgrade date is approaching. I of course know this means i'll just be getting a phone for $100 off or something, I start looking around. My old HTC EVO 3D needs an upgrade after all.

     I begin my search with my favorite activity, mocking the latest iPhone release. So I looked up the iPhone 6 specs as well as the Galaxy note 4 specs, I chose the Galaxy for comparison since it had the exact same price tag as the iPhone 6 plus. For those less spec savvy that aren't already chuckling after reading that I'll explain what those numbers mean. The phones cost the exact same. The Android's brain is 3x as big, and 2x as fast. They have the same amount of memory, but the Android can get more if you need it. The android's camera will take twice as clear pictures, though both can film at the best possible. Well, like usual, I won't be getting the iPhone.

But it's so pretty!

     Now, to what I actually wanted to rant about. Phones are amazing now-a-days. The previously mentioned Galaxy is almost as strong as my girlfriends laptop despite taking up about as much space as her touch pad. Nowhere near the storage capacity of course, but still, has no manufacturer stopped to think "hey, rather then having this phone be able to fit in someones wallet, maybe we should add a little more power, or an extra battery cell?". I've heard from more then one person that the reason they get a cell phone case is so the phone is a more manageable size. Double the thickness, throw some extra RAM in there, and you open incredibly new opportunities for applications. Fill the extra space with battery, and the times of batteries dieing in the middle of the day will no longer be an issue. Those 2 things would sell me a phone instantly.

     Which brings me to my final complaint. Why the hell can I not make my own phone? How is there no company that just sells spare phone parts? Just like building a computer, why is there no newegg section for phone cases, mobo's, ram cards, batteries, cpu's, etc? This would save so much money, and allow users to customize their phone exactly how they want it. For instance, I would want a lot of ram and battery power with powerful video so I could play games. While not worrying so much about storage, or camera power. SOMEONE GET ON THAT

     Until next time! Don't be a stranger!
