You know about Zedge, right? I've used that since 2006, got the agueroooo sound from it.

Modern Android does everything an iphone does and more, usually they play catch up. My old mid range galaxy ace was, whilst the s2 was out, was equal to the iphone4 in spec and performance! I've used both. But iphone is twice as much. Bollocks to that.

Yep; got that app on my phone. A lot of shite on Zedge, with the odd good bit thrown in.

Whatever you do, don't switch to Samsung or Android. Worst 2 years of my mobile phone owning life has finally ended. Bought myself out of the last 5 months of my contract I hated the phone and operating system that much. Back to an iPhone with the 6 plus now, done wonders for my stress levels actually having a phone that works.

Same here.

Big fan of Android and always have been. However I realized I don't use more than calls, text, camera, instagram, facebook, Twitter, bank, music apps so when my son said he wanted an iPhone basically because his mates have them I flogged it for two iphone 4s 16gb's.
It's so compact and does everything I want so I'm more than happy with it.

Usually hammer it for a night with a new phone/restarted phone then don't touch it again for 2 years!

64gb iPhone 6s arrives tomorrow. Happy days.

There will always be people who specifically want an iPhone so we reckon this comparison would be worthless to them except for the chapters where the iPhone wins. Android on the other hand doesn't exactly promote brand loyalty. We've come to think of the two platforms as polar opposites but this is probably the first time they're showing so much respect for each other.

Hope you still have your 14 days mate. ..

Trying to help, don't want you getting ripped off Blue. Geek mode, watch out for the release dates. Only thing the Apple has better is a camera to take pictures of yourself from. And even used as a negligible, it's over twice the price. If using it as a webcam, that's selfish too, what if the person has limited data? (Devils advocate) Anyway. Tech specs;

I appreciate it mate however I decided I love the simplicity of the iPhone too much. I don't like my friends Android, the menu system etc, it's too bulky. I like having my apps lined up in front of me, easy to group, etc.
