you can strip the android os down further than you can the iphone os.

it's not about minimalist vs a bunch of stuff, it's more like... do you want a phone you can tinker with? or a phone that just works out of the box and software is released for and you don't have to worry about it.

not saying software isn't released for android. meh. how about personal preference? [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.] i hate apple

Well you see i've never had anything Apple until recently when i got this phone - i barely even used anything Apple made before - so to me this phone is kind of cool n way advanced to the phones ive had previous! So if apple is a bit douchey then i wouldnt really know.
Saying that...i just love it! But ive seen android mentioned before on facebook and stuff like that seems a lot of people use it

i don't like their business model. i had a 1st gen iphone which got slower and slower as each software update was pushed on me, forcing me to consider the newer faster iphone coming out soon! coincidence? i also remember this kind of bullshit from back in the macintosh days.

they offer limited gaming support, although this has more to do with developers drinking the directx koolaid. push opengl more imo apple.

also because steve jobs is a giant douche?

You have a point there. This phone needed an upgrade - it was super slick before but now some apps are sluggish more often than not

i mean it's no different than pc's really. new software, need bigger hardware to handle it, but it's silly... certain devices should get frozen to a certain update, but they aren't. so that leads me to believe that it's by design and only to make money on hardware since they're not charging for updates like they do for macOS

theres an app that basically can turn an android phone into an iphone. oh and this just in, the iphone 5 is basically trying to copy android features that have been out for years, and they've been trying to sue to take my baby(samsung infuse) off the shelf for being too 'similar' to their iphone 5 that isnt even out.

a patent infringement because of their way of storing photos and corresponding the files to small thumbnails on a gui, and navagatable with horizontal swiping motion.
