Should I switch from iOS to Android?

2 pointsby eandeover 12 years ago
Just recently was the news floating around of an Apple fanboy switching over to an Android Nexus4 device. I do start to get the same feeling maybe time to try out.<p>I love my iPhone for years, works great, but I start to feel it gets outdated and the missing file structure is something I really would like to have.<p>On the other side all of my hardware (home/office) is based on Apple (MBP, iPad, iPhone) and overall it works pretty well. Switching to Android would mean losing some software service Messages, iCloud, iPhoto, etc.<p>There are many other elements to consider as well e.g. malware, hardware stability, but overall Android really came a long way and I see it accelerating more and more.<p>Anybody switched lately from iOS to Android? What is your experience?

dude, is this really the best place you could think of to ask this question? If you can't figure it out for yourself ask reddit.com/r/android

yes absolutely. IPhoto is replaced with g plus sync all photos get auto uploaded and Google sync contacts and docs. use Google voice for messaging and calls. switch to Linux while you're at it
