That's fucking sick, I dunno if it will be exclusive to Samsung, android phones though... rMBP uses samsung display and ssd... They can be bought, even amidst major law suits... Tech world is weird.....

-Replace battery in the back of your android phone.
-Add 32gb of memory to your phone whenever you want for a couple bills
Quit whining and take control. This is your phone and you do what you want.
Do you have any idea how many people would die to switch out batteries. "OH LOOK HONEY, that guy over there just switched out his battery and now has another full 8-12 hours of battery life. Too bad we got on the family plan and all purchased Iphones with Rogers and have shitty network connection unless we are in the city. Woopsy. Aw man my screen cracked.
THE GUY AT THE GENIUS BAR WILL KNOW WHAT TO DO".

Hey guys I booked an appointment at the genius bar. I am selling my time slot from 9:30 am to 9:45 for twenty dollars. Pay another 90 bucks for apple care and if you break your phone we will swap it out for an iphone 4s.
If it takes a few months, has a cracked screen and has already been used, it wasn't our fault.
Thanks steve JObs

Are you telling me that you personally actually carry around a spare charged battery? It's a nice option for sure, but I don't particularly know any android users who do that... I do know some who use an extended battery though (I have on some of my android phones)..... Plus iPhones comes in 64gb, so they're not precisely lacking on local storage, just buy what you need up front imho How is your connection outside the city magically better with an android phone?
I have tons of gripes with iPhones, but these aren't any of them.

You don't carry a charger...
Buy an extra battery, swap it out when you need to be on the go.
I thought the iphone users knew this already.

That's total crap, apple's tech support always aims to try to put a smile on your face, and I'm not a total mac fanboy... I have a PC, and will say the same about Corsair or EVGA on the PC spectrum... All three brands happen to be based out of California 
I use tons of Samsung & Asus tech for example too, and I love the products, but you can be damned sure I am hoping that nothing goes wrong with them....

I didn't say you carry a charger, I'm asking if you personally carry a spare charged battery around. You. That's what I'm asking.... I don't think you do, but maybe you do...... I don't know any android users who actually do.... I know some who use an extended battery, but that's about it. Nice feature, nobody really seems to do it though...

Depends on whom you know. Business folks, professional office types, etc. can and do carry around extra batteries for their phones in their briefcases or purses. Some people literally depend on emails, texts, skype, etc. for their jobs and shit and having an extra battery is important.

I do actually, but strangely find I'm always capable of jacking in from usb during a work day, I suppose if you were literally outside all day you'd want one on hand.

You seriously torrent on your phone so often that you consider THAT the best feature? At the end of the day it all depends on your use case - personally I only ever torrent once on my phone just for shits because I could. Don't miss that at all

You don't need to have a contract for an iPhone - I don't. It works exactly the same as any other device. If you want a subsidy, you get a contract. If you want to buy the phone outright you can do that too.
