To everyone who has owned both an iPhone and a droid?

[Infiniti7]

iphone is the best hands down enough said in my opinion ha easiest to use, syncs to all computers and looks the best

This thread is ridiculous...lol.

I'm afraid that I'm gonna have to agree! LOL! It's all about personal preference. If you prefer lag and ugly apps then Android is for you!

I like the iPhone better.

Ask this question in the android forum and the responses will be completely different. I agree with an earlier post. This thread is purely subjective and its different strokes for different folks. Its useless to even pose this question. Is a Lamborghini better than a Ferrari? Depends on your taste...

No DROID is the same. The manufacturers HTC, MOTO, SAMSUNG, LG and others are very different. I have owned MANY droid devices and liked them all. I came to the iPhone because of all the Apple products I own.

If a person goes with an android device or apple device its based on what suits them best. An iPhone is NOT for everyone and neither is an android device.

Who makes the best android device out of those companies you listed?

I've always been curious to switch to Android, but always chickened out last second. I do love my iPhone and if I switched it would only to have something new to play with for a bit. I know that in the long run I'd come back to the iPhone even if only because I have 2 macs at home.

Why post this question in the first place? Are you thinking of switching or just curious about others' opinions?

Megapixel means nothing...who needs poster size pictures anyway? Lol

A graphic designer does. A photographer. An ad exec. Scouts.

HTC makes really good phones from my experience. The only complaint I have about them is that their battery life is a bit worse than their competitors. To answer your original question... Both platforms have their ups and downs. I personally think iOS is slightly better, but it's all a matter of personal opinion.

I've owned both for years, if you're talking about Android phones. They're all different so you can't compare. Even the softwares.

That's what the thread is about, people sharing their personal preference, I think is a valid question

First off, hate it when people refer to ANDROID as DROD. Second, I believe iPhone is better for more people. You have to be kind of savvy to use an Android phone to its full potential. I am somewhat of a phone junky and I always come back to iPhone. I've had every model on two different carriers and I've also had many Android phones and a Palm Pre, Samsung Focus and Blackberry Torch 9810. I can safely say iPhone is faster, easier to use, and has much more quality apps. I'm not saying I hate Android or Blackberry or Windows but they aren't up to par just yet.

Same. I'm not sure whether people don't know what an operating system is, or if that any phone that runs Android is called a DROID. I've had conversations with people that have gone like this:

"Is that a DROID?"

"No, it's a Motorola Defy. It runs Android, though."

"So then it's a DROID."

"Umm.... no..."

Definitely Samsung.

I am now trying to decide myself what phone I would like to get, as of now it is between the iPhone and the new Galaxy Nexus coming out. Since being in my 40's my eyesight sucks and leaning towards a bigger screen but do like the IOS.

You may want to read up on the PenTile screen the Nexus will have. It has high resolution numbers, but text will not be nearly as crisp as on the iPhone. Anandtech has a thorough explanation: AnandTech - Confirmed: Galaxy Nexus Includes PenTile

If you don't have the iPhone you don't have the iPhone. Best phone out hands down. There is no competition apple is light years ahead

Yes, if you are out and need a pic of something in a pinch and don't have your whole kit with you, or don't have time to get it out and on before the opportunity is missed.

The best camera is the one you have with you?
