Not interested in the pissing contest as to which you think is better. we use what we like. Just interested in the raw numbers of what platform is used.
can be another poll on brand of android later.
besides, everyone knows android rules. =)

    I gotta say, I don't like being tied to only Apple products.  My husband's Google phone kicks ass.

    Android all day. I've had two phones in the last eight years. I know Apple people who are spending hundreds every year to get a new phone. No way.

    Here's the deal.  They're both expensive as fuck.  They both have a ton of shit on them no one will ever use.  They're both missing functionality that many people could use.  They both text, let you post to Instagram, send Snaps to your friends, retrieve email, make phone calls, set alarms, have calendars, have smart pay, etc.  You know, 99% of what most people use phones for on a daily basis.  So use whichever one you like, text your friends, post to your social media accounts, and stop perpetuating a stupid phone war.

    been a slave to apple since my first ipod. but i'd like to switch. i have so many complaints about apple's functionality and platform, and i've heard so many people switch from apple to android, never once heard of people switching the other way.

    My last two phones were Apples. I don't think you can go wrong with an Apple. But when my last one started to die, I didn't want to spend a grand on a new phone. So I bought the Xiaomi 9t pro. Yeah, a Chinese Xiaomi. Cost me 340 shipped and the thing is great. Long battery, better camera than my last iphone (but not as good as the new iphones according to reviewers). But it's fast and does everything I need. For the price, I probably won't go back, although my choice of laptop will always be an Apple.

    in case you were wondering, 10C has an apple app. no joy for android. was attempting to illustrate how many 10C android users might prefer a functioning app on mobile as opposed to mobile browser.

    but, you know,  rant on.

    I think I have the 7S big one, battery sucks some days but it’s pretty old. I rock the otter box, so no cracks

    ive had 3 iPhones since the 1st... never had any issues expect battery slowing down after 4-5 years

    android friends get new phones every year... I’m over the next big thing, I’ll roll with this one until it’s dead

    i like my $70 bill vs $110 plus with new phone

    Always had Android. Current models for work and personal are both more than 3 years old. They do want I need.

    I just switched to iPhone after buying nothing but Androids (had my last Android since Dec. 2015). I'm impressed by: battery life, camera quality, sound quality. I'm alarmed by: Maps app telling me where my car is and assuming it knows where I am going before I even start my car. I LOVE the "bedtime" feature, which means I'm no longer disturbed by email notifications and calls when I'm trying to sleep. I also LOVE the fact that any calls that are NOT from contacts go straight to voicemail. If you've ever spent a sleepless night dealing with the one-ring scam, you'll like this.

    I dislike that the iPhone is less intuitive to use than I expected.

    But I'm comparing an iPhone...11? to a Galaxy S6, so comparisons to a current Android might be more valid.

    No worries, I wasn't trying to discredit your thread or anything.  It just always cracks me up how much of a team vs team mentality goes into the smartphone world, when really no one is wrong.

    I've had both.  My first smartphone was an Android.  I then got an iPhone and haven't gone back (4s, 6, and now 10).
    I had an Android Galaxy (don't recall the number) work phone for a while as well.
    I can see why some might like one or the other, but I prefer Apple.
    At the end of the day, they both pretty much do the exact same thing.  Just gotta figure out which you prefer.  
    Never really understood the phone-fanboy thing.  Who fn cares?

    Apple is crap because everything apple - iPads and iPhones break. I'm not buying anything else from them. It's over priced and unreliable.  I'll never get all those hours back from playing The Simpsons, as then one day the game just vanished from my save point. I was building a pier and beach boards/rafters. I had sunloungers and everything. I'll never get back to that place without putting the hours in. Damn Apple!

    Oh and you cant use your friend or families old iPhone or ipad either as they are all locked to iTunes. Waste!
