[safad29]

@safad29 'Because Jailbreak...' Ahem... On android for example you can do a lot more than on iOS and without fucking with jailbraking and whatever...

[FroyoDroid2]

Android rules hell yhe... XD

[MapleFreeLV]

If the iPhone has the Android home screen, it will be perfect :)

[cellgretsch]

[NoNChEaT1]

[ooyeababii]

[lahbl]

What's the guys named? Brandoniminnim?

[ijoly]

This is a great video! thx

[xvrhernandez349]

jesus thats a huge screen on the HD!!!

[chabab]

yeah but i wonder if the isn't a little to big?

[hht2ul]

5 screens of rows and rows of icons is the most "uncluttered"?

Hilarious.

I really can't imagine a LESS uncluttered interface on any device I've ever seen, it's nothing but clutter.

[Ballero0]

just look at how shittily the windows mobile 6.5 arranges icons

in before fanboy and i have htc tp2 then so i know what im talking about

[zenom88]

so what phone are u using now ? iPhone ?

[Ballero0]

i think i mentioned that on my previous post

[hht2ul]

I use the htc hero, with the default Sense UI.

And just to be clear, I don't mean to hate on the iphone OS, it just looked like the guy was trying REAL hard to find something, ANYTHING to say about it and chose the wrong word entirely, which I found very funny.

It's kind of the PC equivalent of your computer illiterate family member who's got every application's icon up on the desktop for ease of access.

Simple to navigate, absolutely.

Uncluttered? No way in hell.

[PoetryRocksGadgets]

@hht2ul he means simple as in you can't organize it to a more complex manner: such as sub-folders, and bar-menu's.

If you think about it, the people you are talking about do not have to be computer illiterate. My bro builds his own computer setup and all the crap I don't know, but his desktop is still fucking messy.

He also likes the iPhone interface a lot. You know why? Because people like him are more comfortable with everything on the desktop, just like on the iPhone.

[PoetryRocksGadgets]

@hht2ul also, I don't understand why you think that he's making it up the best that he can, I dare you to get him to admit that the OS is not simple.

[hht2ul]

It IS simple. Not denying that.

But it's not uncluttered.

Those words aren't synonyms.

And calling by far the most cluttered interface in the whole shootout the most uncluttered is funny, at least to me.

[PoetryRocksGadgets]

@hht2ul and if you ask mac fanboys like John from Jon4Lakers and Noah from PhoneDog, they will agree that the OS is simple.

[ViKSensationWhite]

HTC Hero is running on Android OS with HTS Sense on top of it.

There was no reason to review it

[antupogroms]

how about htc hero os?

[KnightMD]

Not a SINGLE widget was placed in Android for this video (besides the default one)? Com'on.... how much effort would that have cost?

[rovex32]

Of course the value in Windows Mobile is that if you dont like HTC Sense you can have Titanium, if you don't like that you can have the flat Winmo home screen with today plugins (no more functional interface exists, but its ugly) Dont like that? You can have SPB Mobile shell. If you dont like that you can have Winterface. If you don't like that you can have Androkid. If you dont like that you can have.. The list goes on and on. What options do the others have?

[angel2901]

Title is confusing, cause you really didnt compare WinMo but Sense.

[jagjagin]

The iPhone Homescreen is boring, WinMo homescreen is great, but the TouchFLO 3D sucks horribly, Android homescreen can become cluttered, but overall is good, and WebOS homescreen is fairly informative, but is close to the iPhone like he said, but the card view is absolutely brilliant. So overall, I would say WinMo, Android, WebOS, then iPhone

[crazy4ever10109]

@jagjagin which one is nexus one?

[jagjagin]

seriously??, haha it's Android.

[wreiad]

Why didn't he show Titanium?

[BIGAIRLIKE23]

I like Titanium and its also customizable with the people from XDA. Though, Sense UI just kills everything imo.

[Unboxermail]

Why don´t pocketnow buy symbian phones????? It is also a smartphone!!!!

[bigboibob111]

great vid but you forgot blackberry lol not that it matters the htc hd2 is da bomb diggidity

[BHarris25]

@YTStyla

I agree, but since HTC is about the only one making decent windows mobile phones anymore I'd say it's fair. Personally I prefer WM 6.5 titanium interface over touchflo. All that really doesn't matter anymore since I've been using android on my touch diamond and if I need WM for something it only takes about 2 minutes to boot up.

[YTStyla]

There is a misteak in this video brandon!

Why do you take "HTC Sense" as the Homescreen of Windows Mobile?

That isn't the homescreen of Windows Mobile, this is the homescreen of HTC!!

That is a diffrent!!

Otherwise you could have shown Intelliscreen for the iPhone!

[breznk]

@YTStyla Agreed. But it is the default homescreen of HD2.

[noijen123]

The nexeus is the best

second the HTC HD 2

and the i phone and web os are sucks !

[Unboxermail]

You forgot symbian os

[jagjagin]

and Blackberry

[zkyevolved]

Yeah! And BB!!!!

[adamz1977]

Yeah, that's not a Windows Mobile home screen. That's just Sense. There are like a dozen other home screen customization options on Windows Mobile.

[WhiteRussianBC]

You didn't show the Windows Mobile home screen (Titan, clearly the best), you just showed Sense UI which only runs on HTC devices

[Kalavere]

@WhiteRussianBC. I must say I was never too fond of Titanium, HTC Sense is a very nice visual experience and full of infomation on the home screen.

[WhiteRussianBC]

I like Titanium because it's very simple and gives lots of information. And of course you can argue that Sense is also simple, but actually it takes up quite a bit of RAM and can make an old phone slow at times

[Kalavere]

That I CAN appreciate, my Diamond wasn't the best phone in the world for speed, and bogged down easily.

However, with 567Mbs of RAM on the HD2, sense is just pure win. =))

[AmpsNL]

Symbian OS is forgotten.. lol

[mantheman100]

@AmpsNL umh yeah. "Forgotten" haha xD

[bobbanisten]

Haha, don't know why he keeps saying four icons when it comes to Palm's web OS, when there clearly is five icons .

I'm just sayin :)

[domdom87]

@bobbanisten considering one of them is the home button which you probably cant get rid of there's really 4 to work with

[bobbanisten]

Ok, didn't know that lol. Thanks for clarifying!

Then I take my comment back! Great vid :)

[zsmorr92]

I go back and forth on weather I like android or webOS better. I like having applications, widgets, and folders on android. But I also really like webbos's "deck of cards" way of handling multitasking.

[babyjosef17]

Just look again at that AMOLED screen. Simply gorgeous.

It's sad omnia II was not included here as the touchwiz UI is just crap. I never ever used that.

And agreed, what they show on HTC is not windows mobile. Title is wrong, instead of windows mobile, it should be Sense UI.

If they wanted to show Windows mobile, then they should have show Titanium, Which is a great UI for those like us who knows how to customize it.

What is why winmo users can use iphone,but iphone users cannot use winmo

[eric99zhao]

n900 is not there

[senangsyah]

ANDROID..... hmmmm from engadget...they have video about android pinch n zoom in homescreen..which htc hero...with sense

[midgetman433]

umm... its unfair to have windows competing, b/c the htc sence is running on the top, and u only see the htc homescreen not the actual windows screen..

[cossheisnmzenna]

@midgetman433 sooo agreed. It was more a HTC Sense UI homescreen than a WIndows Mobile 6.5 UI

[GeeseH]

really? the video title is incorrect as it should reflect htc but wouldn't call it unfair as that's how they ship.

[mrjlwilliams]

My phone wins again! Nexus One = Success...

Its on the rise, get on board baby!

[KnightMD]

Also no mentioning of the NOTIFICATION BAR on the Android homescreen. This is a huge omission in this video.

[KnightMD]

I love it... even though I was surprised you'd choose the only Android on the planet with no widgets on any of its 5 homescreens. You could have added a few :)

[robnaj]

where is s60 and maemo 5

[muneerkhan7]

ANDROID

[sterlingman]

Great video!

[ipzent]

Great video!

Thank you :)

[backdoorman1971]

android ftw !

[ThEuNdYiNg1]

iPhone= bullshit

[theandroinvader]

@ThEuNdYiNg1 true

[leemmp]

what about symbian s60?? you said all operating systems for mobile devices

[kalandro14]

"most major smartphones OS"

[leemmp]

Symbian controls 45% of the world market share, its the most popular one

[kalandro14]

nah , nokia is NOT on top "smartphones"

[mamooth]

Apple has the worst homescreen ever. The things i like about the iPhone are the touchscreen, the full animated GUI and the LCD quality. iPhone just sucks by thinking that having the most numbers of apps = best phone/OS. The WM + Touch Flow design is simply beautiful, works the best for me, altough Android has the best option out there: Combine Gadgets and launchers on any screen (You can do that on the HTC, but the android is a LOT more customizable), though i as not as 'beautiful' as the HTC.

[Plau85]

Who now adays want anymore like app menu as a homescreen? Apple->fail.

[duckie1313]

Great video!!! Allot of info!! Enjoyed watching

[PoetryRocksGadgets]

Thanks Brandon, love your specifics.
