Hey so I've been wanting a smartphone, and am thinking about an iPhone 5. For a long time, I hated the iPhone. Why? First, the screen was too small. I just couldn't. Second, it was too simple for me. I wanted the S3, no doubt. But then I felt it one day. It felt cheap... and it wasn't as smooth/fast as I had hoped. No big deal, I might as well wait until the new Google Nexus comes out right? If I were to get a droid, might as well do it through a Nexus! Not so sure I want to wait though
Now, with the iPhone 5's screen at 4", its still small, but a size I can cope with I suppose.
I'm starting to think that I'd rather have something that "Just Works" as it should, straight and too the point with minimal bugs. As well as a thriving app environmental and community. Even though I love Androids openness, and more capabilities out of the box.
I'm asking because I want to make sure I'm not in the temporary phase of wanting the new Apple product still. Basically..
I like iPhone because:
Design - Well built; Sturdy
App Store - Always growing, and huge variety
Reliability - Works well and speedy
Camera - One of the best on a phone
Community - The amount of friends I have with iPhone's VS SGS3's
I like Droid because:
Open OS - More capabilities
As of now, more "innovative"
Free content - More free content, and easier to get
Speed - Most new Droids coming out later this year will be QUICK
Screen Size - Absolutely love screens around 4.5"
There's some exceptions though. iPhone can have "Free content", and a semi- more open OS with a jailbreak. And, Droid can have a good Camera, Design, and reliability. But with design, I'm not so sure. Doesn't seem likely we will see metal (or glass) materials for droids soon.
So? Am I nuts and becoming an iSheep to chose the iPhone 5? I'm afraid it'll get beat in every way soon. Android is awesome, and catching up.
