I'd avoid Andorid phones, they sound like knockoffs, like Tymex/Timex.
Androrid? It's called Android..

Anyhow they are better than what others offer, iOS is un-customizable crap.
Wait for Q1 2014 and either buy a newer model then or buy at the holiday season.
Ever heard of a "jailbreak"?

A jailbreaked iphone has around the same capabilities as an unrooted android phone.
After you root it you get things you could never imagine.

iOS for support, android for flexibility in new apps, also iOS is more expensive than android. :)

I use my phone to talk, text, check emails, and browse the web. I might use an app every now and then, except I have a Samsung Android that sucks, and the apps suck. If I wanted to use apps more, and there might be some that I would like to use more, I'd rather have an iPhone where the apps are more polished and of higher quality.

Regarding the ability to do all the neat stuff you guys are bragging about, why, that sounds about as interesting as washing dishes and cleaning toilets. And for the record, I've been using and programming computers since 1983.

The last thing in the world I want to do is configure and tinker with a phone.

Android apps are really fast. The difference is that Android mostly has free and paid versions. The free version has ads and won't be as good as the paid version. Just download the full .apk from a website and you have the best version for free :)

but IOS wil never stuck not even for a moment. Andorid phones u must restart every month or two to keep them runing quick

I never had any issues like that with my Galaxy S3 so far. Maybe it was just a specific phone which had that issue.


i said i like galaxy and i own S4, but galaxy s3 has the most problems with OS of all other Samsung S series. But you are lucky if you dont have any issues

Man wait for 7.2 version. When will android phone have support for 4 years, never. What is official firmware for Galaxy S2, there were only 2  updates. What is number of official updates for Iphone 4 whivh is comparative to S2, 5 official updates. Do you know how big is adnroid os for galaxy S4 2.5 Gb. Man u dont know what u are talking about.
Only android that is working goo is NEXUS series.
Android was designed from Google only to sell comercials withs apps, it is on java platform, very unsatble and slovs over time

There is over 3 billion devices running java, unstable and slow over time? Please.
The Android 4.3 and 4.4 updates will make the OS more resource friendly, and TRIM support will fix the way that java was handling deleted data on android.

Android on java. They wish they builded a better android platform but they cant build a new one now. Why? cuz all aps will be unuseable

You do realize that on update your apps get optimized?
Android 4.4 aka KitKat can run on 512mb RAM. :)

No. The current problem is that the newer android versions required more ram, which entry and low-end market models didn't have. It's up to each vendor when and if they want to upgrade the phones. Those models could run with less lag on KitKat than their current versions.

low model?!?! Man u dont know what u are talking about. Galaxy S3 low model ?!?! When Kitkat relases S3 will get update 1 year later. That is what u call support?
I knew When i had A galaxy N7000 i waited for new update 7 months after his relase

That is a problem of the VENDORS, not of Android. Google's Nexus line is similar to what the iPhone line is for Apple.
Less models leading to updates for most, if not all of them in a short period of time. So basically you should blame either Samsung, HTC, Sony or whatever rather than Android for the lack of updates.


IF U CAN read i wrote few posts ago that NEXUS is only one good operating phone android based. But APPS on IOS and on ANDROID you cant meassure, IOS i faster and better

Yes, java is slow and monumental garbage.

However Android is native at system level, today's phones are powerful (CPU and ram), and people tend to power them off/let the batteries run out.

Yet it's being used widely.
It takes time for these things to mature to a desired level.

we need nuclear power batteries for smartphones and sayy godbye to recharging. But if u drop you battery WHOOOOOOMMMM ! hahaha XD

How do you double boot? Could you like me to a site that'll explain how to install?

Here is the link to dual boot Nexus 4.

Just flash the zip and a new recovery.  You then can load up multiple roms to boot.  You will get a selection screen when you first turn on!

I would call it quality. Drop an iPhone ones, and your screen will shatter. Drop a Galaxy S3 and you'll won't even have a scratch on your screen.  The iPhone also costs around $200 to make, so the rest is pure profit. http://www.cnbc.com/id/101058725



LOOL How much do u think galaxy costs.

OTHER is not profit, other is BRAND what you are paying for. APPLE is the biggest brand in the world. And how do you become a biggest brand in the world. Not with some crap if you are selling it.

Why do you think you pay COCA COLA 1 $ or more, when it costs only 10 C to make it..

WHO would pay for thoose comercials.

You dont know a shit about  economy
Wow, someone is raging i see  :D
Apple the biggest brand? Ahahaha nice joke  :D




you should read something not just post here and listen whatever someone says who dont know anything about it

Not even close.  I have jailbroke Ipad and rooted Android.  No comparison.


Why would you say iphone 4 is the best?  Have you heard of the iPhone 5s? Spec wise, it kills.  And when/if it is jailbroke it would be real nice.  Still limited however to the programs you can run on android.

Is true and there is a very good reason for that!!
All the high-end phones and tablet from our catalog I have used personally are surprising. Plus we have very good feedback from mid-range models as well, the Thl w100 for instance is a phone that gives you Samsung galaxy specifications for half the price.


The reason why this product are not so common outside China is that many companies don't run quality tests or give the right customer service and warranties on the products to cut down the price.

Many people also associates China with cheap imitations and "fake phones".

We are promoting this products in a more professional way and as for now we have an excellent feedback from our customers.

If you are UK based and want to see our products live we will bring some in our space at the Bitcoin Expo in London at the end of November.

I heard the new Nexus was sold out pretty fast.
This is correct. Poor countries that don't have google play store.
The supply was low again even though demand was high.

Nexus is the only way to go!

First to get newest android updates (I'm already running KitKat 4.4)
No bloat
1/2 cost of other similar phones
Leading edge technology inside
More customizable-more developers-more roms
Longer software support upgrade
Phone can do things that others can't (like Multi Boot...including other OS like Ubuntu and FireFoxOS)
They hold their value (look what a N4 is still going for a year later....only dropped 33% after 1 year)
Not sim carrier locked
Bootloader unlockable

Disagree....members can take a look at these Nexus 4 photos and decide for themselves if they are "horrible" or not:

OP, pick a phone you're comfortable with. Go to your local wireless store, test both platforms out, and get it. People pick Android over iPhone, and iPhone over Android all the time. It's the morons that bark about it online. Both are very good platforms, in fact, both root/jailbreak nicely too, and both are speedy and sleek. In fact, both are quite expensive (comparing S4 vs iPhone 5S). Are you rich? Buy it outright. Not so rich? Pick up a contract. People throwing their opinions at you are only going to confuse you more. Unfortunately your question is like the classic, "Coke, or pepsi?" "Canada? or USA?" "Bigger? Or More Efficient?" .. bla bla bla. You're gonna have to find out on your own buddy, nobody here can give you a be all end all.

Android fan boys, iOS fan boys, gtfo. Windows phone ftw.

Without jailbreaking?! Why would you not jailbreak?

You can't jailbreak (yet) the new ios 7.  Some people like myself upgraded because of the features and are patiently waiting for a new jailbreak.

Also,  did you know apple apps run faster and smoother than android apps?  Reason is they run the code native to the OS.  Android apps are all running in a small emulator (dalvik) and this causes overhead.  Reason they run "In emulated" mode is there are so many different android hardware variations.  Google has come up with a way to fix this issue and is now releasing "ART" in the newest 4.4 kitkat.  It will take time for developers to make their apps utilize ART, but eventually android apps will run code native.  Big speed gains will be coming for android.

This article explains ART in more detail:

First, research papers these days are thin on scientific rigor.

Second, you can extrapolate that only a certain portion of the population has smartphones.

Only a small portion of those have the technical aptitude to jaibreak their phones.

An even smaller portion of them have any reason to jailbreak.

An even smaller portion of them decide to actually jailbreak. 

Furthermore jailbreak no longer has the benefits it once did.

I'd put it no more than 5%

imo the average user doesn't jailbreak or root their phone.. this is just an anecdotal opinion though. most people don't really know what jailbreak is, nor do they care for it. i see a lot of iphone users who own it just because it's "an iphone." they don't even use their phone for much of anything besides calling their friends and family... in which case it's become a vanity phone.
