Those sentences don't seem grammatically correct. It's almost as if the researchers were deliberately using illogical sentences to stump the parser, which most people wouldn't do so it's a pointless exercise

I get why Apple don't think widgets etc are useful, but I'd still like the choice to decide for myself. Android gives me that and iOS doesn't; that's probably my main issue.

I also completely agree that Google's android is a lot less free than the open source android, its just more accessible than o-s android.

Battery issue is partly due to my charging habits (which I'm fixing), partly due to usage (couldn't get a day out of a factory reset iPhone 5 either), and because i've bullied my phone a bit so wear and tear is probably contributing. As for camera, that's an overheating issue caused by a manufacturing problem with a batch of the copper insulation tape (or something like that) that went into a lot of the M7's, can't entirely blame htc for that, but their QC/QA could do with some work (which i think they realised too with their newer phones).

I wouldn't have asked this question if the Google play edition devices still existed and the nexus 6 was offered in a slightly smaller size.

This is probably the worst time of year to look to buy a new phone, so I'll probably wait till I/O and wwdc to see if something newer and more compelling is launched.

Thanks for offering up your opinion :)
