xrichx saidPretty interesting read for those that are considering the switch. I've been hearing that an Android phone + ipad tablet are the perfect combination.

ART_DECO saidForgive my skepticism, but this reads like an Android press release. No ordinary smartphone user writes something like this. It's been edited & massaged to perfection, and has too many corporate talking points, to be believable as a personal user report.

Exactly!
At my job, I've had to help people with their Android phones and trust me, they are so laggy and buggy, it's not even funny. Even with old iPhones, I never had a case of it being so slow to operate. Also, the quality of apps on the iPhones are much better than the android. Android has had so many cases of viruses going through their network, especially what is happening recently.

not_superman saidWhy would anyone want android+iPad when they can get android+android?Not really sure. That seems to be a common theme coming from some iphone users that switched to Android. I guess the tablet experience is better on the ipad. Also, lots of cable networks have ipad/iOS only apps. One of my co-workers has an Android phone. But uses his ipad to watch tv/movies and play games.
socalfitness saidMy impressions from his article:
1. Before iPhone was clearly better, now they are comparable. In some areas Android on Nexus is better.
2. As far as being more "modern" overall, that is often subjective and probably driven by the author's desire for something different after getting used to iOS. Not unusual for techies, but that impression should be considered with that in mind.
3. Has the issue of app compatibility been addressed? Don't Android app makers still have more challenges working with different platforms leading to more unreliable apps overall? Again, if you're a techie and want to experiment, it might not be a big deal, but could be for those who have many apps and have benefitted, maybe even taken for granted, the fact that apps generally work on iOS.
4. Apple has made good strides with each major iOS release, despite naysayers who wanted a specific feature not included, or those who are just naysayers. Apple has documented 200+ new features in iOS 6. Still, as a platform matures, the changes often become more evolutionary than revolutionary. That applies to Android as well as iOS.
5. So Andriod on Nexus is now a reasonable alternative. Fine. Competition is good. Don't count Apple out from raising the bar again in iOS 7. Often products leapfrog over each other. If you want to spend a major part of your life switching with each leapfrog, fine. That is the author's business area, so what makes sense for him might not make sense for most.

Absolutely agree. Clearly Android realizes it can reap billions in additional revenue by targeting the RJ audience.
At first I thought you actually agreed.
Where've you been?

One could just as easily call you Droid fan boi. Or perhaps Apple hate boi.
When your rationale descends to name calling, you've lost the argument.
