I Love Android so Much More Than Apple - Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)

I went from the OG Evo to the 4S and it was the biggest mistake I ever made. I just had to have an Iphone. I only had it for 4 months and I saw the press release for the Galaxy S3 and here I am.
For anybody looking at this board trying to make a decision between the Iphone and the S3, please make the smart decision.
Android is 100000000000000x better than Apple.

That is a tough question as there are so many aspects I am not sure where to start.
1. Customization - The IOS UI is a grid of apps, Android can be what you want it to be. Widgets, toggles, clocks, the choices are endless. Also, keyboard choices, not really open on Apple, just modifications of the ios keyboard. I personally really enjoy quickly browsing my news, calendar and weather widgets, without opening an app. Not the case on IOS.
2. Freedom - IOS: Walled into itunes with drm locked media. Android: Play what you want, when you want, on whatever player you want. Choose what media player suits you on your pc, not stuck on that piece of crap bulky itunes program.
3. Useability: IOS forces you to go back to a general options icon to change settings for a large number of apps. Android has app settings integrated into the apps themselves.
4. App returns: Apple are complete pricks when it comes to trying to get a refund for an app. Google Play: For 15 minutes there is a refund button you can click for an instant refund. I personally experienced this on my wife's ipad when purchasing an app that didn't do what it claimed. Had to go onto the desktop itunes program, find some obscure feedback button, only to get a response that I had to take it up with the app developer. When I did, the app developer said they are unable to do refunds through the Apple App store.
I could keep going, but in the end, if people would get over the Apple marketing machine/branding, and try Android, they would quickly realize how much better it is. No scientific analysis here, but everyone I know who has made the switch from Apple to Android has never gone back.

Just want to add, apple saved the music industry with itunes and the music in itunes is not drm locked, you can use it on any player that support aac file format.
And btw I am enjoying the android experience better compared to ios. But in the end both android and ios has their ups and downs and I enjoy both operating systems

Your point is supported, although I disagree with the premise of that article. My opinion is itunes did not in fact save the music industry, but hurt them through prolonging their need to adapt. My premise is based on 2 facts: 1. All industries must change with the times; 2. All market leaders eventually lose market share to innovative competition.
No one will succeed in stopping the inevitability that the internet has changed, and will continue to change, how we purchase and consume media. Free is the way things are going and therefore creative methods must be determined in the music industry to procure other methods of generating revenue. So, if itunes saved the industry by extending the almost extinct practice of purchasing music, what happens when competitors, with no such sale model arise? There is no stopping history based on one company, even the almighty Apple. Instead of finding alternative promotional, ad based, or other methods, the industry has just fed on itunes. Apple's dominance will not last forever, and the industry must adapt to that. Apple's pretty little walled garden will not support them forever.

To the guy that said I was rebutting him
Not really trying to rebuttal, you. I've been peeking at xda while I work today. And this is no place to talk about Apple stuff. However, it's true more bands are trying to make hit singles than cohesive albums cause of iTunes.

Technically it's not true integration.
WP7 just lets you get gamer points on your phone with your XBLive gamer tag.
But yes, both these posts are referencing Windows Phone 7. Specifically the soon-to-be-released HTC Pro 7 for Sprint.
Which makes this thread off-topic.
Sounds like Microsoft's late-to-game rehashing of "cloud" this and that blah blah and xbox integration that nobody cares for.
Microsoft's cloud storage is not just for WP7 anyway...

Aww so sad
I was thinking that my android phone could now be "integrated" with my Xbox
Btw I'm both a ps3 and a 360 person
Not that it matters at all
Another thing I think wp7 is going to be the next big thing
Because if I remember correctly apple came to Verizon first with the idea if the iPhone and Verizon refused and the iPhone was a huge success and Verizon also refused wp7 so maybe wp7 is going to be huge too.
Even if wp7 becomes "huge" I'm sticking with android unless Google abandons it

While I prefer ps3 over 360, I'm gonna have to disagree based on multiplayer. The 360 has a great social system. Once the ps3 gets on XBL level, there is definitely nothing holding them back. And hopefully a redesigned controller (not fully redesigned....just put some joysticks that atually have grip so that I can shoot as comfortably as 360!).
Multiplayer is more casual on 360, but that's because you have all these little kids not taking it srs.
Ps3 is more intimate online and its more hardcore because theaverage age is 12<, which is why I prefer it, but I can't enjoy it with my friends playing a different game than I

Maybe if your intent is to use it as a linux box. However as a game system, they are close enough that you should pick based on which one has the exclusives you like. That and the online system I suppose. Cheap vs good.

Swings and round abouts, it was actually the jailbreak community they stole everything from. Lots of pee'd of dev's now with redundant apps.
Hell they even employed a dev after already sticking his notification app into iOS 5 - way to avoid any legal issues.
on another note it actually looks more advanced that the android notification system.
without Apple and ios most phones would still be stuck on symbian with Nokia sitting in its hands milking the same crappy and outdated OS for years to come.
Let Apple copy and play catch-up , not a big deal imo.

I don't see the point of this thread. Oir the point of XDA keeping a separate domain for iPhone developers. Don't we all have smartphones in the end? Wouldn't it be better if we all had a common hub for developers to influence each other? I'd love a Blackberry section as well...

I have the xperia play, ipod touch, iphone 3GS and Ipad 2. I am enjoying both OS's and am glad that the best features are making it to both.

I agree, I think iPhones (and Blackberrys to some extent) are waaaaaaay over rated, they just have alot of hype.
Take BBM for example, it is almost exactly the same as WhatsApp, yet everyone is going nuts about it. The only feature it has over WhatsApp, is that is has a notification system where it tells you when the recipient has read the message. On the other hand, WhatsApp imo, is alot better because it supports Android, Nokia handsets, IPhone and I think, although not sure, BlackBerry too.
Besides, whats so much better about the iPhone/iPads? Except the fact that everyone glorifies them for no justified reason

whatsapp has nearly the same. 1 green mark next to a message says it's safely off your phone on the interwebs
2 green marks next to each other say it has landed on the device of the receiver.

This iPad sucks

So mom bought me an iPad 2 while she was down visiting from out of state. I have to say I was a little excited to get it after hearing all the iPhone and iPad users rave about their equipment. I'm on my third day of use and I cant find one decent thing about it that I can't do better on my old Epic 4g. I couldn't be more disappointed. Anybody want to buy an iPad? JK - Momma might not bake me those amazing cookies anymore if I sold it.
I'll buy it but I don't really get the comparison between and iPad and an Epic.
The ONLY redeemable aspect about an iPad to me is the virtual textbooks for college. I don't have one though but can't say I want one either I just wish more textbooks could be found on an android tablet.

LoL, there isn't much comparison. Other than the iPad having a big screen that isn't as bright...the Epic is MUCH better and does MUCH more. I know, the epic isn't a tab, but it is my "other" computer...and the iPad doesn't come close. My daughters rooted Kindle does more than this thing.
fair enough but my wife uses the textbooks xopher mentioned. I happen to think Apple makes the most overrated products on the planet but I seem to be part of a growing minority.
how much do you want for it?

Gotta disagree. Having to be "forced" to sync music IMHO is BS. Plus iTunes IMO is too bloated and slow.

Although Google search is faster you have to consider SiRi pulls up more resources and can do a little more. SiRI can open apps, play music from your phone, and use alternate resources other than Google to pull up even more information. I'm no pro iOS don't get me wrong. But if you're trying to declare a 'winner' you have to decide what the 'fight' is about. Is it about speed or features? Google wins in speed, but SiRi wins in functionality.

In my opinion, I prefer the simply mode that uses Google Search than Siri... When Google only says two sentences, Siri is teling you a story... I mean, it's tru that Google Search is faster, and this is what I'm looking forward to.

Although Google search is faster you have to consider SiRi pulls up more resources and can do a little more.

i got an iphone4 and used siri, but after seeing the speed difference i would rather prefer google voice search, and also the main selling point of iphone is siri, but now that has such good competition i guess apple users will be feeling jealous

S voice that comes w the remics rom for the ns4g is cool as can be. It also opens apps, plays music, will search YouTube ect.... grant it, its still a little buggy, but what do you really want from a 2 yr old phone with completely modern software. Oranges over apples any day. I'm definitely a Google supporter all the way. Had an Iphoney, and that's it. Had.

The butthurt is strong with that one.

Assistant on Play Store is already better than Siri, in my opinion.
The voices in my head are faster than both and I can change male/female and accents on the fly. I even have celebrity voices too. :screwy:
For you Beatles fans they can speak backwards, and like a snake for you Harry Potter fans.
Top that!

Have you guys ever read comments on a Apple centered blog? I've never read something more hilarious than stuff like that. They claim that Google copies everything that Apple does. They even think Google stole the "rectangular shape" from Apple.
If you feel like you could use some laughs just check out 9to5mac for example.
I look forward to reading comments about how Google's Voice search is shamelessly copied from Apple's Siri "Innovation". -.- Like Voice Recognition has never been used before Siri... xD

Amen Mike. I read mac related stuff all the time. Being a Electronics Tech for a living I keep up w/ most technologies but some of the fanbois just go ape **** about google.
Siri is useless IMHO. Just a novelty piece. Apple users thinks it is the greatest thing since man discovered you could eat stuff off the floor.

And that Apple's fan boys use Google for search, mail, google+, etc. I can't understand that...
