Would You Leave Android For The iPhone 5?
The big day came for Apple fans, and the iPhone 5 was announced. Featuring a new display tech, a larger screen, and 4G LTE, it finally catches up to what Android phones have offered for awhile. It’s no secret that many Android users originally flocked to the system as a iPhone replacement, as they either wanted a larger screen or the phone wasn’t available on the carrier.
It’s been a few years now, and Android is sitting with 500 million devices strong. But, now that the iPhone is widely available to just about everyone, along with some new features that brings it up to speed in the mobile world, would you consider it? Is there any feature that really makes you want to switch? Will you never leave your Android phone? Let us know in the poll below, and continue the discussion in the comments!
I'm an Android fan, but I now consider switching to the 5th iPhone, cause it's finally all black. Why? Mostly cause of the high quality feel and the materials used. Samsung plastic? I mean really? WHY ON EARTH should I choose cheap plastic over all aluminum and glass? What sense does it make? + the screen probably doesn't bend when you press on it harder like on the HTC One X. Android phone manufacturers had SO MUCH TIME to catch up in the design department, but they've wasted it all caring only about the latest freaking hardware they'll put in the phone which won't be new anyway after a couple months of the flagship phones release... the camera is still better on the iPhone though, as is the screen quality. Size is a relative matter. I do have to agree that making a phone wider makes it less comfortable. And why couldn't HTC move the lock button to the right side as Samsung did? How easy is it to stretch your fingers up the long phone to the top?! Why couldn't Android phone manufacturers move the headphone plug to the bottom before Apple? Is it somehow convenient for the wire to be bent when you have your headphones plugged in and are holding the phone and texting or whatever? It is things like this that they should have thought about and thrived upon. Instead they just improved the size of the screen and put more powerful processors in. Also Android should have concentrated on getting rid of the bugs and making it's OS faster rather than letting it get slower and slower as the phone gets older. Pity really, now I'll have to get an iPhone... Don't get me wrong. I by no means am an Apple fan. In fact, I hate Apple as a company. However, unfortunately I have to admit they do know how to win over some customers...
