Title pretty much says it...
I'm currently using a iphone 4 (yes not a 4s) and i'm content with it for the most part.. it is jailbroken so that i can tweak it.. turn stuff on and off from notification center and such.. But it seams like the jailbreaking scene in general is dieing for the iphone.. Heres a brief history of my phones..
few non-smart phones
At&t Tilt (running windows mobile 6?) it was ok.. very few apps and such.. but its GPS was GREAT
iphone 4gig 1st gen (it was used and got it for $150) was pretty happy with it coming from the Tilt
Iphone 3g 8gig again was fairly happy with it.. was jailbroke first day i have it (got it used also)
Samsung Captivate (got it day 1 of release) Kept it for about 1 1/2 years and after the first few months i started hating it (i'll elaborate in a minute)
Iphone 4 (current phone)
I am by no means a apple fan boy... in fact i dont like apple.. i like there devices but dont like the company.. anyways the reason i went from the Captivate back to the iphone is. I was due for a upgrade and was HATING my Craptivate i was getting poor battery life (as in i listen to audio books and such at work FROM the phone not streaming and was having to swap batterys after about 5 hours.. and thats ONLY using the phone to play the mp3s and check the time very 30 minutes or so) random freezes to the point that at least once a day i would have to pull the battery to reset it the capacitive buttons SUCKED would have to hit them 10-20 times for it to read once some times.. random system hangs.. reguardless of that i was doing. and then there was the lack of official support from samsung..when i finally ditched they they still hadn't updated the firmware once and it was at that point 2-3 major updates behind.. So i had a decision to make get a new android or iphone.. my wife was also due for a upgrade.. and she had a iphone 4.. so i upgraded her to the 4s and took over the 4 to see if i wanted to go back to iOS or get the best android i could at the time (and that was the galaxy nexus S) and after about a month there was still a few things i missed about android but the iphone was working well battery life is good (i can stream pandora at work for 7 hours a day and still come home with 20%+ even to day i streamed about 1 1/2 hours browsed the web some and watched roughly 2 hours of videos (stored on the device) and its still sitting at 38%..thats after about 15 hours off the charger.. some days a better then others.. there have been a few times i've come home with less then 5% but not often.. So i've stayed with the iphone 4 up until now.. and i would like to get a new device.. everyone i know either has a iphone 4s or a iphone 5.. but i dont think i could handle a iphone non-jailbroke.. and i know for the most part the stuff i jailbreak for is either stock on android or you just download from google play.. not ever requiring root
Wow.. I really rambled there.. long story short.. well its not short.. just look at what i typed!! its not short..I think i'm gonna give android another try.. i always told me self if i was going to i would be the google phone so that its supported the longest... but i cant really afford $350 right now and i can get the sgs3 for $140 but i know the sgs3 has been out a while and i'm afraid as soon as i get it there are gonna come out with something better.. and i'm not really up on whats coming out so i dont know if i should just wait a month or so and then upgrade or now..
I know the sgs3 is gonna blow my iphone 4 out of the water.. but i dont want to buy something right before its be obsolete by the next great thing...
(btw anyone here a heavy pandora user that can give me a idea about battery life?)
