It really does depend on what you want to do with it. If you are looking at ease of use they are both very similar, but for some uses I would say the iphone has more paid apps available. However, there's much more free stuff and more tech-minded things for android (Emulation etc.). Galaxy S2 is certainly a good phone and arguably the best out there ATM, but most apps don't use it's full potential. You may be better off with something like a HTC Sensation of similar power, or HTC desire S for a bit lower spec, keeping that high-res display. I would say have a play around with them in shops to see which one you like the feel of. For me, it would be the S2 or a Sensation, but it's your preference

In a similar position, but have had a smartphone before (Sony)

I'm looking at the Samsung Galaxy Nexus which seems to be the best one out at the minute - running Android's latest release (Ice Cream Sandwich)

Anyone got one of these already?? and if so, are they as good as the reviews state??

Had a play around on one; I have an iPhone 4 right now which is doing me absolutely fine but the Galaxy Nexus is very good.

If you wanna hang around until April/May you can have your pick of a suspected bunch. Samsung Galaxy S3, etc.

Galaxy S2 is an amazing piece of kit.
