They are both good in platform, but iOS is not that much friendly like Android, regardless of version they have. and for Android mobile like in Samsung they are easy thing to have, they can have custom phone cases the way you want, not as always with iPhone.

I prefer Android. Apple seems to limit the software it's devices can run to their own productions. A lack of Flash instantly kills it for me; it's a huge part of digital media. iTunes is also a big problem. I find it to be a slow and clunky program, and at one point all of my music was deleted. On top of that, Apple products are ridiculously expensive and far too poor of quality to justify it. I don't really care about brand names, but the stuff really just has to work, and I have had zero problems with my android phone thus far, while iTunes and the iPod touch made me suffer occasionally.

Never singled out iPhones, just Apple products I've seen in my own experience. I've simply had more trouble with Apple than I've ever had with Android. I did, however, own an iPod touch, and noticed how cheap the screen was, along with plenty of system crashes. I only dropped it maybe twice before the screen started popping out, while in comparison to my HTC phone, which my butterfingers have lost hold of a dozen times at least, which has zero damage. I've also seen iPads with lag issues just from dragging the screen before; completely new ones. But, in short, I have next to no experience with iPhones. Weren't they much, much more expensive that that at initial release, though? I seem to remember a new iPhone model costed around $600 at one time or another.

I beg to differ, but Plase Explain how. Or r u just an android fan boy?

Side: ios

1. I hate iTunes with a passion that is unrivaled.

2. I don't like being told that I cannot use MY device any way I want. If I want to run flash, there better be a way to do so.

3. I don't like paying inflated, uncompetitive prices for disposable hardware.

4. There ought to be a way to upgrade your hardware without having it become obsolete soon after purchase.

5. I don't like artificial barriers put in place for the sole purpose of extracting more money from me.

Need I go on? ;)

I prefer Android, simply because I like the open-source nature of it. I also like it more because you can get a much greater variety of devices that use it. Your only option for ios 5 is an expensive iPhone. The Samsung Galaxy SIII and HTC One X are both superior in terms of hardware and have, in my opinion, better software- they are also competitive price wise. Alternatively, you can go for the Galaxy Ace, HTC Desire, any number of Sony devices... and many more.

Well, lets not forget the iphone's famous White Screen of Death. And not the kind you just press the reset button to fix, the hardware kind. I only owned my iphone for ONE year and I got the white screen of death. It couldn't be fixed either because it was a hardware failure. Apple just said I needed to buy a new one. Well, guess what, I didn't. Android, which doesn't have white screens of death, is far superior to iOS in every possible conceivable way. I mean come on, idon't support flash, idon't support Open Source Software; whatever idon't DROID DOES. :)

Better that what you used. This is basically all your arguments: "Your an Android fanboy" "Your an Android fanboy" "Your an Android fanboy". At least I had a valid points. And I like how you didn't even mention the famous Apple White Screen of Death. I got you now ;) .

Android is a FREE OS and is better in terms of speed and specs when compared with the price.
