iPhone 4 vs. Android, Plus Early Review Round Up

[kingssman]

In the end, its all about the network. Sorry I like my Verizon (best nationwide coverage) I haven't experienced 4g, but then again i'm not located within a major world city either..
Iphone.. i do love the apps, the games are nice, they conform well and the game apps has more stuff than what i find on flash sites.

Android: Love the homescreen, the custom background (animated), not many games but tons of utilities (wardriving module). The one thing i don't like about the android market is the variety that apps have to conform to. Apps that run good on incredible, sucks on eris, apps that uses moto droid, but not HTC, controls for touch screen or use / dont use the physical keyboard.

I have an iPhone on AT&T for personal use, and a Blackberry on Verizon through work. I've observed that the iPhone's 3G connection is much faster than the Blackberry's, but the Blackberry will hold on to a 3G signal in rural areas where the iPhone will drop down to 2G. (I live in the Denver area, BTW.) I haven't noticed a significant number of dropped calls or dead zones on either carrier.

I'm not trying to comment on which service is better; I'm just says AT&T's seems faster, while Verizon's seems to consistently cover a wider geographic area.

There is an error in the chart. Multi-tasking should say "Yes" for the 3 Android phones, and for the iPhone it should say "Kinda... Not Really".

Noobs who cry about data plan, ITS COMING TO VERIZON TOO. Sprint, I am not too sure, but it seems like eventually it will.

And for the whole 4G thing, you fell to Sprints ads that say they have 4G when really they have nothing compared to it. Go ahead and wiki 4G and let me know what you think

I think Apple must be a bunch of control freaks.

They come out with a cool phone, but restrict you to the crappiest network.

They come out with a great operating system for computers, but then they go and restrict you to one manufacturer's crappy hardware.
