Does BlackBerry take gaming more seriously than Microsoft?

Blackberry Os Way back in 2010, when Microsoft pulled the curtain off Windows Phone 7, I got excited. Really excited. The truth is, I was already pretty bored with Apple’s iOS, even back then; and Google’s Android just wasn’t where it needed to be quite...

"Are you someone who has switched from iOS to another platform, or have you simply just refused to use Apple's mobile OS due to a missing piece of functionality?"

Tom Parkison Apple owns the device. I refuse to use a device that anybody but me owns the device. I bought it with my money! It's my device, not yours! Who are you to dictate to me what I can and can't do with a device I paid for?

valerie Page I use both they both have features I like

Jerale Hoard Samsung :P. If I didn't have a BlackBerry Z10 I would rather be with a iPhone 5. Samsung has good hardware (stolen ideas) and great camera quality but it's software sucks.

Lenn Liggins I do believe the IPhone is a very good phone, however, they haven't made any changes other than add a half inch to it. I'm a Windows phone guy.

Dallas Henry Firstly, it sucks ballsacks for phones. Secondly, I do use it for my iPad Mini. Thirdly, it hasn't changed much since inception. Fourthly, "SAMSUNG"... no need to say more. Fifthly... I wanted to type "fifthly".
