My iphone 4 is great! had one screw up on me, they sent me a replacement.

love it, so easy to use, very clean, quick, does everything one could ask for.

Depends what you want to do.

For work, steadily streaming data where you have to replace batteries throughout the day then Blackberry just because you can switch them out.

Just picked up an Android tablet, wow impressive.

Blackberry o/s really is getting left behind, dated. Pretty good quality hardware though.

Thanks, will probably look at the Android phones for a replacement.

Not been able to switch out on IPhones, killed them as a choice.

Will be looking for one which will create Wifi hot spot for use with the tablet.

How do you like your Android phone?

My desire makes a hot spot. My buddy with a iPhone asked me to turn it on yesterday cause he needed WiFi to update his phone.
I love my phone. Loads sites super fast. Very versatile. Only thing is, like every other smart phone out there, the battery doesn't last. I carry a charger with me at all times.

Sent from my kickass HTC Desire because Apple sucks!

any new android can build a wifi hot spot... its built into android so it doesnt matter if you have the HTC, Motorola, Sony or Samsung flavors

The iPhone will make a hotspot, I love mine and have had zero problems, same with my wife's iPhone 4 as well. The only complaint she has is that they are so bloody expensive to replace when I lost mine.

ya regular 749 bucks..... thats 150 more expensive than the next most expensive phone.... and for what? nothing at all

I dunno why everyone is hating on the Blackberry so much.

I have a Storm 2 and it's the best phone I've ever had. Big touch screen with great resolution, the camera rocks, and I run apps from The Hockey News to Tune In Radio to Twitter with no issues.

There must be a reason that the iphone is the best selling smartphone by a landslide...

I think there are only 2 types of people : Iphone owners, and people who want to be Iphone owners/// LOL

Uhh WRONG!!

NPD: iPhone 4 remains top-selling smartphone, Android sales down in Q1

-Iphone has the most phone sales,

-Android is the most popular operating system...

-Iphone is 1 brand, 2 models, ( 3GS and 4 ).

-Android has 29 brands and over110 models to choose from.

Here is an article that is interesting, looks like there might be a cheaper more affordable iphone in the future,,,
Apple Is Said to Work on Cheaper, Smaller IPhones - Bloomberg

Plus there are so many android plans that give you the "Buy one get one free" offers and they mark that down as a sale too...

AreWeThereYet · May 26, 2011

Well chock up 2 more sales for Android because I bought one for the wife and one for myself.

Iphone TOOOOOOO expensive.

LOL i found half a dozen pages on the IPhone beating the Android and another Half a dozen about android beating the IPhone.... you chose the one to believe in whatever

the fact that that Apple OS is only available on an apple prodruct has always been and always will be Apples drawback

they dont let anyone else but Stevie Jobs dick, grow their products... they are by all means, nazis in a technological respect

with android you have the beauty to choose between many different builders with their own tweeked version of the OS
you have the freedom to choose, you dont like samsungs build quality, no worries you have 3-4 other manufacturers

more compitition lower prices, the consumer wins!

you dont buy a phone for the logo on it, you buy it for its OS and operatability (did i just make that word up? oh well)

Oh, and Google owns Android, so.. now that we are talking monopolies....

The Google operating system will be like Microsoft in the PC world. Junk that will devalue and be obsolete in no time.

My 3 year old ipod has many of the features that my Iphone4 has, through updates.

Google is "selling out" to anyone and everyone to try to compete with Apple.... but it isn't working.
Put it this way. If you made a product that was unique and knew would make money, all to yourself, wouldn't you?

The only way a person would think that apple has a drawback, are people who want an Iphone but can't get one...ADMIT IT!!!!!:d

But then again you don't have to get one.... you have that choice.
ƒ˙ƒ©˙∆˚πøˆ•¶§∞®¢´∑

your fanboydom is astronomical..... i always choose whats the best bang for my buck, and Apple doesnt cut it... along with their nazi rules

ya google owns android.... so what, its still an open source OS

Funny you mention Windows.... last i checked every single business in the world runs on windows..... something went right somewhere

are you still talking about the same Apple who nearly went bankrupt in 95/96

the reason that happened? subpar products.... that hasnt changed, the marketing has

And FYI, Microsoft has helped out your precious Apple many times to stay afloat

the truth stings dont it

If you really believe this statement you need to do further research... And i believe you have the right phone for your self, Android is defiantly for you. But it's not for everyone, that why they still make POS feature phones, and Blackberries, different needs for different users.

Why waste your time in a pissing match over who's phone is better...

Sent from my iPhone.... Because I believe it was the best fit for me.

with a little exaggeration

its not a pissing match... pissing matches just go back and forth with stuff like "my dad is stronger than yours because he has brown hair?

we were actually putting some facts into this

and i dont care about the phone that you have, as long as you arent a fanboy

and in case you want to tell me that i am a fanboy... reread the advice i gave to the OP, i just hate Apple
