If you want headaches, get an Android phone. If you want a good solid phone, get the iPhone. Heck, I'd take a Windows phone over an Android powered phone.
I absolutely love the guys who say "Android can do much more". While I tend to agree on some level, the majority of users can do just as much on an iPhone or Windows phone. For those of you that think an iPhone is just a fashion statement, or as Marky put it...a bling bling device, my guess is that you're simply regurgitating the same rhetoric that Android fans love to pin on iPhone users. You know, the one that call iPhone users uneducated idiots?
Before you say I don't know what I'm talking about...here's some of my experience over the past 20yrs:
- Sr Solaris, AIX, HPUX, Novell Netware, SCO Openserver, BSD, Linux admin
- DBA
- Computer Science degree
- Senior and Principal Software Developer in Linux and Enterprise software
- Know C, C++, Objective C, Java, PHP, Perl, Ruby, Python, etc...
- Been Director of Engineering for one of the largest companies in the world
- Own 2 software companies, one a software as a service (all Linux based), and the other mobile software (yes, I develop for both iPhone and Android).
It sounds ridiculous having to explain my credentials, but without it...I'd simply be called an idiot for choosing an iPhone. If you like to customize your home screen and play with widgets, then Android will suit you fine. Otherwise, I'd strongly suggest the iPhone. If you want to get hard core, you can always jailbreak it...run a database server, webserver, and anything else you'd like.
