Hi Guys,
1st Post!
Currently own a jailbroken iPhone 4 and have been patiently waiting for the iPhone 5, until now.
Have always found iOS restrictive, hence the jailbreak.
I want themes, custom springboards, third party apps, custom ringtones, lockscreens, access to root file system, wifi tethering etc etc.
Well the recent iPhone 5 ruomours seem a little disappointing, 4" screen, no flash support, no expandable memory, maybe not even NFC? Plus I would have to wait MONTHS for a decent untethered jailbreak.
This has led to me thinking about Android, and I never thought I would change over to the dark side so to speak but the Galaxy S3 looks tempting. Better display, better battery, new INNOVATIVE features and true FLEXIBILITY.
However, having never owned an Android im nervous about just going out and buying it and not getting on with the platform.
For someone being used to iOS, what features do Android not have that I will miss? What will Android bring to the table that iOS doesnt? What advantage does "rooting" have? Anyone here got an S3 and care sharing their impression / review?
Sorry for the long post and I am really hoping this doesnt spark a whole Apple vs Android fan boy war!
Thanks guys!!
