    Default Android VS Iphone

    Just curious. Which and why?

    For me as you can probably tell I own Android. I have a galaxy s3 and I occasionally play on my Ipod when my phone is dead but I don't like it as much. My cousin has an Iphone 5c but the screen is just too small for me to play on. The s3 is the perfect size for my huge hands. To me the graphics look better on the galaxy as well but maybe that's just because it's bigger and able to show more detail.

    What do you guys play on and why?

    Nexus/Android all day every day.

    Why? cheap, great hardware specs, fully customizable (ohh the freedom) and the screen colors are very good. I also like the size and did I mention the price?

    I'd rather get two Nexus devices then one overpriced, bloated, overrated iPad.

    I want to get the iPad mini...it seems like the perfect size for gaming.

    As for iOS vs. Android, that is just personal preference. I've always used Macs because of certain software I use for work that is only available for mac, so I keep everything Apple so that it all syncs together and I have all of my files and info available on all of my devices without having to copy stuff back and forth. For someone who uses google's ecosystem, I suppose Android would provide the same benefits.

    There doesn't seem to be any difference in gaming between iOS and Andriod other than screen size, and that varies by device.

    I use both a Nexus 7 and an IPod. I prefer the android. They both have good graphics but I like the bigger screen. And when you're someone with sucky Internet, android is definitely the way to go. IOS takes higher bandwidth so when you're someone with a bandwidth that isn't big enough you constantly lose wifi because it can't connect. Found this out the hard way thinking I've wanted an iPod for a long while and spent years worth of money I saved up then it didn't work with my bandwidth and I couldn't return it. Then last week i bought a nexus and its perfect.

    There's only 2 differences between apple and android.
    1: apple is hands-down more expensive
    2: you don't need to root/jail break android

    These days google and apple have the same syncing capabilities, so your just choosing which company you prefer to be your Overlord. And I say you don't need to root an android because you don't. You can install 3rd party app by default and you can torrent from your android, to your android. If you bought an android that won't allow you to install 3rd party apps, you bought the wrong android.
    The main thing that confuses ppl imo is that apple has a standard that their devices have to meet, while any company can make a phone/tablet and run android OS. This floods the market with crap devices that exist only because they're cheap, not because their worth it. Just look at the specs of an iphone or ipad, then search for a android with same specs or better. Should be a little cheaper, but if its a lot cheaper, its probably because its a cheap (meaning crappy) device

    Ohhhhhh sry I misread that lol no the preinstalled apps are on there. But you can root it (I wouldn't advise because I don't know how to) and take them off.
    Also I just ignore them. They only use like half a gig for me.

    Apple seems more simple compared to windows and there stuff, I'm not trying to say it's hard to use, I am simply saying, apple seems more neat and simple.

    For me:
    IOS, they're clean, beautiful, and simple, easy to use.

    I own a iPad 4 iPad 1 which now has a smashed screen, an iPhone 4g, and used to have an iPod 2g..

    We have an iMac as a family computer

    Apple ftw!
