Hi y’all, which phone do you think would be best while studying for the CPA exam? In my heart I had been planning to jump to the GS4 once my plan expired in nov but I absolutely love iOS 7. For those of you who have the iPhone 5, do you think the screen is optimal to read the ninja notes and flash cards? How smooth is using the Wiley test bank on your iPhone 5 because it totally sucks on an iPhone 4S. I’d imagine everything would be smooth for galaxy s4 members because the screen is big and pretty and the Wiley test bank online must be unproblematic right? Id really appreciate any feedback.

Just out of curiousity, why do you have to study on your phone as opposed to a tablet/desktop? I've never tried to do MCQs on my iPhone 5. I'm always around computers so had no need. Would be hard to see everything…

I use my laptop the majority of the time but I'm asking about smartphones for the breaks and lunches during work or when I'm out somewhere and is able to spend 10-15 mins studying looking at the ninja notes and doing some McQ

fyi – the Wiley Test Bank uses java, so it won't work on an iPad or iPhone…not sure about Samsung.

Apparently the iPhone 5S is crazy fast according to an article I read, but can't find.

It's so inconvenient to bring your notes around though. I'd rather be able to whip my phone out anytime and look at the ninja notes and do some mc if I want to. But like Jeff said, the iPhone does not support java so ill most likely get the galaxy S4 for it's bigger screen and expandable memory.

I've got the NINJA notes, flashcards, and audio all on my iphone 5. I do the flashcards at lunch and listen to the audio to and from work. This is an extra hour and a half studying

That I wouldn't have done if I didn't purchase it. It's helping me out a lot too. Although I just updated the software on my iphone last night to iOS 7, not sure if I like it. Anyone else done the same thing?

The S4 has a 1080p 5 inch display, so this is a no brainer…better yet get the Galaxy Note 3…it has 5.7inches and includes the S pen

LG G2 is a bit bigger than the Galaxy. I just bought one, should be getting it today.
