[citation][nom]bystander[/nom]I know several iPhone users that will disagree with your list, as they too get reboots and crashes.[/citation]

I have never had a reboot or a crash on my iPhone. I don't see many stories online of other people getting them either - certainly nowhere near as many as Android.
 
@watcha
I have used iPhone 3, 3GS, 4 (haven't played around with 4S yet), and I believe the OS is pretty solid. I rate WP (having tried Trophy, HD7, Omnia, Lumia 800 etc.) along side iOS when it comes to ease of use, smoothness and stability wise, and Android (I have owned three droids, but tried more than a dozen so far) being the last one the list. Just because something (which is perceived to be) free doesn't mean it is the best, well it isn't really free for manufacturer's anyway ............ and fact is the thief in this case is hardly paying any damages at all.
 
I've had my Samsung Nexus S for 4 months. I have tried hundereds of apps and widgets on it, and I have not seen a single crash. Only some slowdown when I have too many apps running (or when I tried a game that was too hardware demanding).

I do not like the feel of the iPhone's OS, and I would never spend the rediculous prices for Apple's overhyped products, only to be limited to Apple's offering of software.

Android for the win

 
According to one guy on these forums 2 days ago, Trevor, Android handsets are just as expensive. He was arguing in favour of them too, lol. In fairness though, the range of apps you can install on iOS means you are not at all limited to Apple's software - you can even jailbreak if you want.

Archean - I agree.

Wow, you're still upset about that? Honestly, I got tired of it all days ago. I have much better things to do with my time than read page after page of idiotic fanboy ranting Good to see you're still missing the point though. All I ever said was that I personally prefer Android.

I guess the co-founder of Apple and universally accepted tech guru Steve Wozniak is also an idiot since he shares my opinion, right?

Incoming wall of text rationalizing your intense fanboy hatred of everything not Apple in 3...2...1...

You also said top-end Android handsets were just as expensive as the iPhone 4S. And a whole host of other incorrect things.

Certainly looks like one of us is upset?

And he doesn't agree with you. Saying something is not done as WELL is not the same thing as saying you can't do that same thing on the iPhone. And time... 26 - your opinion was never disputed (you can believe you're from Jupiter if you want).
 
Ummm, while I think that Woz deserves credit for much of what the con-artist Steve Jobs is credited with, I dont consider Woz to be a last word on Android phones or the iPhone to provide me with justification for using either device. iPhones are crap and will likely always be so. There is no way I will risk the shame of being seen with a drm infested locked-down coffin phone like the iPhone in public--no way. Sorry, but free intelligent people should not stoop that low.



 
iPhones don't use DRM. You can jailbreak just like Android. Fastest hardware. Most apps. Highest customer satisfaction. Better camera than leading Android handsets. Longest battery life.

Intelligent, huh?
 
I like my iPad for its functionality, app and accessory ecosystem, performance, and ease-of-use. However, I love the power and how customizable my Droid Razr is. Android's customizations really allows you to make your device your own (for those that value that). However, until most Android tablets are using ICS and not Honeycomb, the iPad is gonna be flat-outbking, IMO. Yes, the Asus Transformer Prime TF700t will be the schiznit but so might the iPad 3.
