Not an android user but have used an android for about a week..

My personal preference is that the android OS beats the iPhone's.

It has A LOT more customization features and the applications are nearly endless even though that the iPhone's apps are much much more endless.

If you're into apps and gaming and enjoying your time using a phone, get the iPhone... If you are the type of guy that looks for customizing and would settle for a tad less apps, get an android.


I've used the Galaxy S.. It's an amazing phone, significantly larger than the iPhone and is much more thinner and lighter. The only downside to it is that the touch isn't as good as the iPhone but it's good enough!!

I would get a droid over the iPhone!

Yeah i'm enjoying my android experience so far..


the touch is a software thing.. and with 2.2 it's much improved.. the beauty of it is u can install any firmware and revision u want and try out diff combos and see what u like.. if u brick it.. just flash it in recovery and start over again..

deffinately a geeky phone

best part is most apps are free :D

Thats not what i meant bro.....according to my understanding Apple have copy rights over the touch screen tech, if you would notice, apple touch screens only respond to finger touches if any other object is used the device would not respond while other devices would..............

the tech used in other devices is thin see through filament placed on top of the screen which acts as pressure pad etc..................i think the Galaxy uses the same tech

Nexus One owner here.. used iPhone 2G and BB 9700 ... Android beats them all ...Widgets is a major plus for me, and most of the apps are free ... I can customize every single thing to my liking... however It still feels that iPhone's interface is more refined

Not going back to apple ...and cant wait for Android 3.0 =)
