Anyone switching back to iPhone?

[Beyond Fire]

I really enjoy my iPhone, but I know if I go back to android the Note 3 would be the phone I get.

If you can point me to a iPhone 5 for 300 bucks I will buy it right now. And I don't mean one with a cracked screen or a bad ESN. The 5th generation IPod touch starts at around 300 bucks... Sounds like you're the one kidding yourself.

Not unless more personalization becomes available and their ridiculously HIGH prices go down.

If you have to ask why? then you are truly an iPhone candidate

Beside the S-Pen what does Android have that Iphone don't? I think I can deal with the crappy IOS interface if it mean I can have access to all the latest and greatest games. Entertainment on the go is extremely important for me and Netflix don't cut it

As a near 50 year old let me tell you an iPhone screen doesn't cut it.

Android has lots.

Bigger, higher resolution screens
Expandable memory
Removable batteries
Open OS allowing for customization
A proper filling system
The ability to set default apps
better sharing options
ability to add external devices via the micro USB port i. e USB pens and games controllers
Ability to use as a universal remote control

Just a few things off the top of my head

Bigger screen, open OS to do whatever I want with.

There are two big enough reasons in my book for me at least... Not everyone but for me yes.

Yes, yes, and yes! Look, I too had always supported the iPhone and had the very first starting in 2007 but when they started just tacking an "s" on and calling it a day I felt Apple were letting people down. Plus the fact Jobs really wasn't kind to the customers in his speeches especially when it came to admitting things had gone wrong, see antennae problems. Plus the fact my 4 and 4s had to be replaced multiple times.

Also quality over quantity in apps and I'm sorry but the whole "Android doesn't support indie developers" is a tired argument and is a bunch of horse ****.

Oh and according to Gameloft's own site there are a total of 62 games for ios and 44 for Android not sure where you got your numbers from.

Android and his app ecosystem are doing just fine. However, I still believe, from my experience that iOS leads in its app ecosystem and that her apps generally offer more polish. At least Android isn't flat out missing titles like the Windows Phone and Blackberry ecosystems. For example, this old dog loves Monopoly and only in the last few months has Android's version graphically met the iOS version, though functionally it's still slower on Android even on flagship phones. I'm still trying to pin down why my 4 year old prefers his old iPad to the LG G Pad 8.3 I handed down to him. He's 4 for jimony's sake.

His predictable rebuttal, "aside from all THOSE things that I don't care about"

Different strokes for different folks. That's why it's just so great there's both iOS and Android...just the way it should be.

I`ve had Android phones since they were first available(Tmobile G1 here in the UK) and can`t see myself buying an Iphone.IMHO they are just too restrictive and everything ,unless you Jailbreak,has to be done "Apples Way".I`ve only had my Note 3 for around a month now and it`s magic...both my Wife and Son cast envious glances at my N3 when I`m showing a web page,photo or video..they`ve both got an Iphone 5...mugs!

Isn't iCloud completely optional?

It is, but it ruins the experience. It's like having an Android device without Google search.

Well, I'm an Apple user and on my iPhones and iPads it asked me if I wanted to join iCloud. There's also a toggles in the control panels to turn all of iClouds features off...in fact you don't even have to make an iCloud account. So yes, it's optional.
