Android vs Iphone

So one of the main questions in the mind of anyone shopping for good a web based cell phone is should I get an Iphone or wait for android to come through on the T-mobile G1. Well I’ll tell you for starters I tried the Dare I kept seeing advertised on TV with verizon and I was very disappointed with the internet browsing…it was complicated working my way around the web pages, and not only that but the sensitivity i thought was horrible. Whenever there was a link on a page, unless it was huge I had to tap a million times before it would select it.

Moving on to the Iphone and the G1, buying a phone and a two year agreement not only locks you down with one company for what seems like way too long but if you get a nice phone like the Iphone your going to spend a good piece of a paycheck just buying it. So research is a have to if you want to make it worth your while. And don’t go to the site advertising the phone like AT&T for the Iphone or all you will hear is the good stuff about the phone. Look instead at reviews from people and companies that have already used and tested the product that you want. Theres always two sides to the story.

For instance The Iphone has been a coveted phone for so many people including myself for some time because its got a sweet touch screen and lots of storage for music and acceptable web browsing, But what they don’t tell you in their advertisements is the lack of camera options, the poor sound quality on the speakers, etc.

I stumbled across a blog about 25 things wrong with the Iphone,…since the original 25 there are well over a hundred complaints about it added on. Now we all know that Theres no perfect phone that satisfies everyone out there. Some of these complaints are just wishes for more applications and whatnot. But this is exactly my point! With the G1 there are limitless opportunities for anyone to work with the software to adapt to anyone and everyones wants and wishes. It was pointed out previously that Google has even offered $10,000,000 in prizes for the best applications made for android. Encouraging and promoting the fact that this is not a locked down deal ..more like the sky’s the limit.

Personally I’m into photography and I don’t think there are any phones out there that can take a super nice picture but the nicer they get the happier I am, and I’ve heard nothing but bad about the Iphone camera so far….The G1 on the other hand has a 3.2 megapixel camera on it which is i believe the best out there so far. I of course haven’t used it yet but it sounds pretty good.
