Let me start by saying Android has come a long way in the past year. It has actually caught up to iOS. So which one should you get if you’re looking for your next phone?
Android Pros:
* Great operating system
* More flexible than iOS
* More customizable than iOS
* Many more phone choices
* Phones support LTE, while iPhone is still stuck in 3G land
* No shortage of apps
* More carriers support Android
* Most Android phones have bigger screens
* Many Android phones are now free with a 2-year contract
* Most Android phones let you easily swap batteries
Pros for iPhone:
* More elegant operating system
* Phone is beautiful
* Smart design choices
* Latest apps tend to come to iOS first
Personally, I went for the Galaxy 2S Skyrocket. Why? It was hundreds of dollars cheaper than an iPhone. I got mine for 1 cent on Amazon. It supports both 3G, HSPA+ and LTE. And the screen is bigger, which makes a huge difference to me!
I’m trying to decide between:
1) Ubiquitous Android OS versus limited but strangely enticing Windows OS.
2) Current carrier (imperiled T-Mobile) or another carrier (crappy customer service and coverage from AT&T, crappy customer service from Verizon, or crappy everything from Sprint)
3)Galaxy SII(Android), Galaxy Nexus(Android), or Nokia Lumia 800(Windows)
Suggestions?
