This is quite a loaded question and it all boils down to personal preference. Both iOS and Android are good phone OS's but they offer different features. Whereas iOS offers limited customization ability, Android is the most customizable phone OS out there. iOS is inflexible and seems to be nothing more than an app launcher. Android offers flexibility to the user, widgets, excellent notifications, excellent voice integration, etc. I posted this link earlier today from PC World which gives you other reasons:

Take a look and keep asking questions here. I'm sure folks here will give you other good reasons for choosing Android.
