Thinking of switching to iphone-Android is terrible

[taeisme]

I understand what you are feeling, I switched from an iphone to a Razr Maxx and the transition has been rough. I just have to stick with using the forums and asking a lot of questions but I am starting to appreciate Android just a little bit more. Good luck!!

BTW, I understand your frustration too, but don't give up so easily. Yes, the iPhone is pretty simple and straightforward to use for your iTunes stuff, that's true. But all the other basics we use our devices for, like calling, texting, web surfing, etc, are very strightforward and simple on Android devices as well. I like both platforms for different reasons, which is why I use devices from both platforms on a regular basis. There are lots of nice, knowledgable people here on Android Central who love to help folks with their Android questions/concerns/frustrations. Ask away, and you may change your mind once you start feeling more comfortable with the Android platform. If not, at least you tried, right?

iOS is for the "I don't want to know anything about computers, I just want to use this thing" crowd. Android is for the rest of us.

Not even close to the truth. You're just a fanboy & not a user.

It's one thing if you don't care for Apple or their products, but to generalize like that about ALL the people who do use their products, like myself, is really silly and narrow minded. When people say things like that about Apple, it makes them sound as ridiculous as the Apple fanboys.

I know a crapload about "computers" , as you say, and also prefer to use Apple products for certain things at certain times over any other platform, Android, Windows, whatever. I use an Android phone and love everything about it, but my family and I enjoy the heck out of our iPods and iPad as well. We use a laptop that runs Microsoft Windows, because we like it and it works really well for what we do on the laptop. Why would anyone limit themselves to a single platform, if the others offer different things that are fun, entertaining, educational, productive, easy to use, whatever the case may be?

So back on track, I hope the OP has had some success with the issues encountered with the Android phone. Let us know if things are getting better/easier.

Get over yourself.
