Cell Phones: Android Or Apple..What is your preference and why?

rhopar · 02-07-2013, 08:27 PM

Seems the Android and Apple Iphones are the most popular. Do you think one is better than the other?

Personally, I think android is quickly becoming more popular and they seem to have so many more options than apple. Myself, I have been an android owner since they came out and never cared for Iphones.

So, lets hear your comments and comparisons.

I absolutely love my samsung galaxy 3.

TheMerryFairy · 02-07-2013, 08:34 PM

I want an android for sure! I like ipads and ipods but the droid phone features and apps are just so cool! besides, the iphones keep changing so fast and they are way overpriced. I have heard horror stories about the repairs.

I am a die-hard detester/despiser of Apple products. lol I was talking earlier about how I have a 4S in my sock drawer and an iPad laying around somewhere in the kiddo's room.

I much prefer Android systems. Apps are cheaper and more plentiful, although once in a rare while will I need an app that only Apple offers. Very rare while. I think the biggest attraction for Apple is the name alone, but that could just be my brand hatred talking, since I hate the Windows phone even worse than Apple lol.

So, I have this big-ass smartphone/phablet thingy...
LG Intuition (An S3 was my original choice but then I saw this, and well...y'all already know I'm a size whore....lol)

and this tablet....
Motorola Xoom

durrrrrrrr · 02-07-2013, 08:53 PM

I am getting the Samsung Galaxy 3 soon, work phone.

I love love love the Note, but Verizon did not offer it when I got mine. They waited 2 whole days after I got mine, to announce that they were going to carry The Note 2. My luck lol Mine is actually a little bigger than the Note though, I think.

maryam · 02-07-2013, 10:03 PM

I have a Xoom Tablet, and I like it. I hate the charger (I have one of the originals that had a pin type charger) but I like the tablet. My next one will probably be a Xyboard.

For my personal cell, I have the Droid 3. When it's time to renew, I'll probably get a Droid 4 because I'm just really attached to my keyboard! (Yes, I do use a bluetooth keyboard with my Xoom. I'm a dork.) For my work cell, they sent me a Razr M, which I really love, except for the touch screen keyboard.

Nadeest · 02-07-2013, 10:04 PM

I don't have either of those types of phones. I don't want internet access thru my phone, nor will I pay for it.

Angeltoes · 02-07-2013, 10:14 PM

Apples suck. I strongly dislike the snobby, expensive, proprietary attitude and the truth is they're introductory phones for people who don't know how to customize. The phone that is superior in most areas especially battery life is the Note 2:

http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/s...edPhoneId=6055

Yes, it's a 'phablet' as they say. I hear Samsung is releasing a smaller version this year.

...did I ever mention that I'm passionate about phones?

Yes, I think you can get a hec of a lot more for your money with an android as far as being able to customize, get apps and so many more features. Apple is so limited and over priced but there are many apple die hards out there.

Breathless · 02-08-2013, 12:04 AM

i actually really love my iPhone 4S. Phone before this one was a blackberry curve and I hated all the limitations I had with it.. Really hated it. I don't like the android solely on its size... And never really gave it a consideration because of that. I keep my phone in my bra at work, for emergency and convenience reasons and the total no hiding it, just is not appealing to me. I also have an older iPad that I received as a gift, and really enjoying

Duchess · 02-08-2013, 12:14 AM

I had an IP for about a week and I exchanged it for an HTC Android. I love Androids and the only makes I would ever consider using is HTC or Samsung. Right now I have a Samsung Captivate Glide. It's a older model, but I absolutely love it!!!

I'm glad you enjoy your iphone. My daughter is an iphone lover as well and she always try to talk me into getting one.....but im an android junkie lol. At least we have a big selection to choose from when it comes to buying a phone, something to suit whatever needs one may want in a phone.

Angeltoes · 02-08-2013, 12:35 AM

Apple is good if you have other apple devices. Also Apple products are so stable because they're proprietary and nothing, no app, slips by them untestested. It's a safe, stable product. U can say that.

Angeltoes · 02-08-2013, 12:42 AM

I don't understand the point of a BlackBerry for the average consumer.The main selling point of a BlackBerry is security. Nobody important cares about my emails and if u lose your password, u have to completely reset your phone to get it to work. Everything will be lost.

My gf have a blackberry...main reason, because of the keyboard. She hate the onscreen keypads because its hard for her to text with her nails. And, it doesnt help that she doesn't have any patience at all with any electronics. lol...Hec if it wasnt for me, she would still have her lil antique flip.. lol She would keep a phone for 20 yrs if it still worked.

VintageFemme · 02-08-2013, 01:05 AM

I absolutely love my iPhone. I have no desire to even try an Android, I'm good with upgrading mine when I can. It's perfect for me.
