@Vearmoth: I just tried that. It feels unstable and not that comfortable lol.

Depends on how you hold your phone.

I hold my phone with little finger under the phone, ring and middle finger at the sides, index finger at the top.

Of course you can just hold the phone with 4 fingers at the back but idk, it feels more safe.

They are clearly attacking the iPhone and aren't just "expressing one's opinion." There is a huge difference between saying "I prefer androids" and " what's it like using that tiny screen without an option key? or your non customizable... anything." One is an opinion, one is being an annoying (pointless) elitist

I like the smaller size of the iPhone because I can actually fit it into my tiny pockets that comes with all jeans for females. Also it syncs nicely with my MacBook and is easy to use. Androids are nice as well but I don't see why people make such a big deal out of what phone people uses. Use whatever you want and let others use whatever they want.

sometimes it feels like some android users have this confidence issue and they always have to brag about how their phone are oh-so-much-better than the iphone
because "you can't customize iphone" (ever heard of Cydia?), "you can't put widgets on homescreen" (yes you can), or they brag about the screen size of their android device (true, but still small for reading and watching movies). i laugh when they claim that iphone is 'overrated', when they themselves use an overrated android phone like the samsung galaxy.

Only problem is the screen size, too small, something like the Z30's screen size is perfect.
Currently running a Z10 primary and N4 and iPhone 5 as secondaries.

Lol people just use iphones cause most people have them. I've used both an iphone and android phone and, honestly, the iphone is for lazy people and android is for people who like to make their phone uniquely theirs. You can download apps that are paid in the apple store,but free on android. You can even download assistive touch on android. I've also downloaded a ds emulator and pretty much all the current nintendo ds games are free to download and play on my android phone. If I had a samsung galaxy note II or III, i'd pretty much have a ds in my hands lol. Anyways, point is, iphones are just good looking and overrated.

The eff word is an iDiot?
OT: I went from an iPhone 5 to a Nexus 5 simply because I loved the physical design of the N5 and the price. Still in love with the phone now but cant wait for the LG G3. Now to really be on topic: looking back at iOS, it's simply too dam restrictive. There's no way to change the default web browser, no true multitasking, and a simple grid of icons was really boring. With Android, I could customize my homescreens with widgets and my apps weren't locked into a gridlock. Even jailbreaking my iPhone still didn't give me the same level of custimization as a non-rooted Android phone so, while still full of respect for iPhones, I would much prefer an Android phone.

I like my iPhone 5s. I had the HTC One and Nexus 4 before. It works for whatever I need do to need it be calendar, gaming or just browsing the web.
I jailbroke my phone so I could customize it a bit more so no problem there. Overall really like the feel and quality of the iPhone.

I'd probably switch back to an iPhone if they released a slightly taller, wider version. The music player is much better than play music and I don't have to use aux to connect it to my stereos. Plus, notifications are done better on iPhone. For example, I had my iPhone set to vibrate every 5 minutes if I received a message and didn't read it.

I like the bigger screen and vibrant display on my android phone over my iPhone. But the android is too big to fit in my pocket comfortably. There's no forward button on my android. The sound is better on my iPhone than android.

If you never had another kind of phone, you probably won't have a problem with this "option key". on the other hand, with not having anything customizable, I kind of don't care about that.

Okay, so you're making fun of people who use a phone that is essentially the same thing that you use. What is the point?

Iphone is ok, the only reason why I would get an iphone is for apple exclusive apps. I like my android way
better though I only like the big size because I watch videos and bigger is usually better when it comes to
videos~
