Thread: Android OS vs iPhone OS

Had an iPhone but I didn't enjoy it at all. Android ftw!

Although I dislike the size that Google has reached, I still prefer the Linux kernel and the GNU-GPL that CyanogenMod offers in Android compared to all the kinks and "protections" Apple offers!
Go Linux!!

Have owned both. Definitely prefer my new iPhone 4S over everything.

I have owned both and i personally prefer android mainly because you can customise it with ROMS etc

my vote goes to iPhone. "once u go Mac - You never go back" ;)

I prefer Jailbroken iPhone.. IOS is very good but with the freedom to do whatever you want included with jailbreaking. The Android users can say that their OS can do most without jailbreaking or I guess rooting on android, but it doesn't take much to jailbreak an iphone.. maybe 5 mins.

yeah, i prefer JB iphone.
GPhone has limited apps.

I can "jailbreak" my Android phone in 5 minutes, usually less. Both OS are great but Android is the future. Ive used both OS a lot! I can make my phone look exactly like an iPhone(don't know why anyone would want to though) or could put any ROM on it I wish. I can use HTC sense, ICS or an iPhone theme, list keeps going. The only thing I like more about the iOS is the apps they have, Android has a bunch of junk in the Market, but Android is still so new compared to the iTunes market. In time Android will dominate, already is in most areas. I was thinking about switching to the iPhone, I really wanted too, I heard that maybe an iPhone 5 was coming but instead they just added an "S" to the iPhone 4 and people are all amazed. It's the same damn phone, Apple hasn't changed the iPhone since the 1st generation, same phone with minor changes. If you look at the Android phone lineup, it's amazing what they have accomplished. With Apple your just paying for the name, Apple could paste it's name on a piece of dog shit and people would buy it because it's Apple branded.

Android gives you more freedom. That's my personal opinion
