iPhone against Android
Last month was quite the month for cell phone technology... after using an AT&T Demo iPhone 4S I, well, I liked it, okay, I loved using that iPhone 4S. Here is what brought me back to the iOS:
1. battery life
2. screen clarity and brightness
3. no app crashes or random OS reboots
4. camera
5. iTunes integration and "The Cloud" back-up
6. iMessage free unlimited texting to other iPhones
7. smaller screen, the Galaxy Nexus was too large for most pockets, and to take with me while running or hiking
8. screen clarity while outside
9. stop watch and timer apps built into the iOS, and they simply work each, and every time
10. Apps - I discovered over the past year while experimenting the following Android devices (AT&T InFuse, Galaxy S, Verizon Bionic, Verizon Galaxy Nexus, Droid RAZR) that the Apple Store Apps are of better quality than the Google Market or Amazon.com Apps. They are pretty close for many apps; however, overall Apple is more efficient in the Quality Assurance testing of app prior to selling them to the unknowing, not nerdy public.
11. integration with my Apple ID and Safari features
What do I miss about the Android 4.0 Ice Cream Sandwich OS?
1. the ability to change just about anything
2. quick dial and quick message shortcuts on the desktop
3. a few of the book apps
4. Google integration
5. haptic feedback (where the screen vibrates on touch)
6. swift keyboard
7. multi-tasking
8. the back button with the opportunity to easily hide the keyboard when on websites
Thanks for your write-up! Very interesting.
