    I might get the iphone 5. But then again, I might not.

    I am developing WWW software for iPhone and Android right now, so I have one of each right next to each other. When it comes to the software, Android really blows in all respects compared to iPhone.

    I am going to be added to my fiance's (AT&T) phone plan. I'll get my choice of phones. Still unsure which I should choose. What are the most common factors in choosing between an iPhone and Android?

    I'm not the geeky type.

    PS: She's with AT&T because it's the only company that provides good cell quality in her area.

    The JavaScript engine in iOS6 is way faster. That'll make WWW browsing and some apps feel a lot faster.

    Do you want to spend a lot of money for a shiny badge that says I'm a tech snob, or do you want to spend less money for a nearly identical phone?

    I have several friends that have switched from Android phones to an iPhone and they like the iPhone better. I have a couple of friends that switched from iPhone to Android and they are now considering going back to the iPhone.

    From my own experience...

    A jailbroken iphone > android
    android > stock iphone

    Yup, just the 5. Turn by Turn Nav only works with the 5 as well.

    iPhones are better for non-geeky people.

    i have an iphone 4s and a galaxy s3, and they are both pretty dope, gotta give the edge to the iphone just for intuitiveness, although the galaxy s3 screen is amazing
