Droid phones or Apple Phones? - windows 7 was my idea - 30-09-2011

Which one and why?

1. Droid phones/tablets
2. Apple phones/tablets


I love andrioid for the fact that its open source and their phones have more power and customization options then the iphones do. Although it does suck theres not as many apps and what not.

I have an android and most of my friends do as well.

This is a hard one, I started off with an Android phone mainly because It was a cheaper than shelling out on an iPhone and it was "nice" you could get a few apps, pull your emails through and browse the web but then I got an iPhone.. For me, it's just so much better. At one point I was even using two. It's jailbroken ofcourse, they're very lacking otherwise.
I can see I've evened the scores out!

All Droid phones are Androids. But not all Androids are Droids. I'll assume you mean Android.
My Android is *so* powerful I only need one Mark. Vanilla Android is not lacking, I can install what I want from the off. I can change my homescreen layout. How awesome is that?
Also my OS isn't made by a company that can say
"It's tuesday I want to remove this app"
That's wrong. If I was a dev, That would make me worry. Android will soon overtake iOS as the largest worldwide OS. Apple can cheat and merge their Desktop and Mobile OS to increase the numbers, but we'll still overthrow.

Are you forgetting Googles killswitch? They can pull any app whenever they want. They've done it many times.

Apple any day of the wekk

thanks

My post to combat Marks appears to have gone missing.
Regardless, Googles App Killswitch has only ever been used for apps that are malicious to the user. Not because it reveals their bad ethics or allows a user to press a button! God forbid
I care not to continue showing up Apples blatant abuse of power in it's own store. They're incredibly harsh on developers.
There was a recent story about how app creators are scared to dev for Apple because of their app not getting in at all.

Well it depends what you want it for .. the android is great if you wanna hack and stuff on it (jailbreak and the such..) , whereas there is not as much customibility on the iphone even when jailbroken and CANNOT really be used for anything but what it was meant for but what is was meant for is GREAT .. just take your pic... Customiseability or More apps and better look
