Hi I'm thinking of moving from my current iPhone 4 to Android as little disappointed with 4S. Probably a Sensation, S2, Xperia Arc S or other top end Android phone.
So coming from iOS can I ask if Android has these and other features similar to iOS.
• Does it have multitasking and how does it work? iOS is simple double tap to see programs running and tap go reinstate.
• Does it have a rotation lock, and how? For portrait and/or landscape.
• Does it have music controls on the lock screen, and play in the background? so don't have to unlock phone, chose music player, skip then lock?
• Can you use headphones with a remote for music so can leave phone In pocket and control play/pause/skip/volume. Would Apple headphones that come with iPhone 4 work?
• Does it have a voice command? Not as much as Apples Siri I imagine, but voice commands? Especially in car for calling when I'm connected over Bluetooth
• I obviously use iTunes for syncing at the moment, but I also have an iMac. How do I use Android with an iMac? For syncing/backup, adding apps, adding music etc?
• Does Android have cover flow for music, can you browse using album art and show lyrics?
• How do you organise all you apps? iPhone uses folders, what does Android use/do?
• Are there any apps that are on iOS that you can't get for Android? Is there anything that iOS simply doesn't have over iOS?
I'll add more when I think of them! Sorry for the maybe simple questions but I've never messed with Android, also do all phones have the same way of doing the above?
Cheers
