How My Friends Schedule Got Ruined And The Value Of Our Beloved Removable Batteries.

**ichat** · 11-03-2012, 07:44 AM

Well, this is a short thread. Just to show you all the true potential of removable batteries and our hard reset.

Well, we were driving all day to go to a conference. I was rocking my 9860 and my friend his IPhone 5. We needed to talk with a lot of people on the way because my phone is like an office. Anyway, somehow at 12:00 PM, my friends iphone froze. His battery was at 96%. He laughed it over and tried shutting it down and restarting. Didn't work, the phone wasn't responding AT ALL. Turned out to be a sought to be "short freeze" stretched for 3 hours and in the end when it resolved itself, 2% left!

Well, I do recall him saying "**** iphone man **** it."

Well, we all at our beautiful crackberry world should be grateful that rim thought about what people use their phone. Not for fun and games. Gosh.

Well so much for that poor 1400 MaH battery. I have only 1230 MaH and survived 4 times the amount that iphone did. Too bad iphone!

P.S. I forgot the unit for battery capacity. If it is wrong, please let me know and I would stand corrected

I had similar issues with my 4S. But not for 3 hours all the time.

Wow, idk what went wrong with his phone, jeez he wasn't even in an app or something. Memory leak probably. There you go apple, your beautiful sleek back cover did your customers some good.

I have had mine for a year now and it hasn't froze up. Ios 5.1.1 worked beautifully for me. Although with the release of ios 6.0 (and now 6.0.1), I am not that hopeful it will remain that way. Not looking forward to a 3 hour freeze. HAHAHAHA.

Been getting a lot of app crashes and weird things happening. I missed an appointment the other day. Made me want a new BB10 device.

It doesn't freeze al the time. But once a while it does. Most annoying is when it freezes while there is a call and you cannot answer it. I Keep on sliding and nothing happens and it keeps on ringing.

iOS is built to be flowful and not really able to freeze but if it does, nothing to stop it. I think they should add a circuit breaker on the bottom of the phone which let's the battery circuit stop itself. My friend just picked up his 9700 again. Its sucky how he couldn't attend his appointments cause of it.
