iOS is too limiting but thrives because of all of the third party apps and devices that it works with. Android has since gotten a lot of that third party support so I have no reason to use iOS. However, I think Android just lacks the polish of something like iOS. To get the perfect device it requires so much time, effort, and Google Play credit that it's not worth doing most of the time. I'd say only go to Android if you don't mind rooting and working hard with extra launchers and widgets. So no, it wouldn't be my first choice if there wasn't any launchers or custom roms.
Actually, I really am liking the direction Windows Phone is heading. Basic phone stuff is handled really well, updates are handled much better, it has a consistent design language throughout (one of the things that drives me crazy about Android. Every app looks and works completely different), has great built in apps without the fear of it suddenly being killed off or ruined by another service, and more. The reason why I haven't switched is because 1, Windows Phone is almost always a step behind Android (seriously, no smart watch?) in terms of getting the latest technology and 2, apps are not consistently supported and updated. Oh well, until then, I guess Android will do fine.
