    It's incorrect. Android do have higher malware
    Yes the Microsoft plan with windows phone can work better than android.
    However the Google will do the same with Motorola.
    The Samsung and others know that. Thats why both Samsung and HTC are planning to release windows phone soon.
    Why would Google let others make so much money with the hardware when Google can do this in house with Motorola.

    If Google is not interested in hardware why not sell the hardware part of the company to others.

    Most - sweeping generalisation.

    I've had enough experience of a range of "high end" Android devices to know this to be the case.

    Your experience of one or two phones is enough for you to reach the verdict that an entire system ecosystem does not function?

    Ridiculous.

    The thread is going strong lol

    iPhone is rubbish, just accept the facts you iTrolls haha

    Now you don't like the size of Galaxy S III, I bet when bigger iPhone 5 comes out you will love it for its bigger screen. But for now "bigger' is not iApproved hence doesn't meet iSheep requirements lol

    I cannot talk about all Android phones, because all depends on manufacturers who make them, but Samsung Galaxy S2 and S3 are far superior when you compare them to i.e. IPhone 4S even in therms of optimalization. They are quicker than iPhones, they can do more, they don't have compatibility issues with other brands and you still can upgrade them if you want (ie. add memory, change battery) without the need to bend over. Apple is just losing its edge and they know it.. hence their attempts to stop Samsung Galaxy S3 from being sold in the US.

    If you invested a lot of money in Apple products then I understand you will try to defend it to justify your purchases, and I feel truly sorry for you because you're lost.

    I've got Apple products too i.e. new iPad.. my 4 year old son loves it (and we bought it for him), but it lacks in so many areas / and suffers from so many compatibility issues with non-Apple products that I don't find it nothing more than a toy as I cannot use it without being forced to be restricted to one brand. My wife also cannot use it the way she wants because it doesn't do simple task when the other brand products are not iApproved (ie. printer). Needless to say I won't buy any more Apple products until they start being competitive again and their usability/compatibility improves.

    Not the entire ecosystem, just most of it. It's nothing more than a lot of crap choices with a few half decent devices thrown in the mix, each with their own long list of compromises and pitfalls.

    You don't appear to understand the difference between fact and opinion I don't think...

    Sounds like you feel somewhat threatened because I don't agree with you. Seems to be a common theme with certain people...

    My Xperia S has no lag whatsoever - before that I had an Xperia Arc S with no lag running ICS.

    I don't really get the iOs Vs. Android thing - I think they're both good and suit different people.

    I have an iPod Touch 64Gb and like it fine for music and ebooks. Apple does need to update its user interface and screen size, though, as it looks and feels old in 2012.

    Now, my Windows Phone Lumia 710 - that really is crap...thankfully it didn't cost much.
    I shot a vein in my neck and coughed up a Quaalude.

    Well apparently because I disagree with you, I'm an "iTtroll". You feel threatened enough that you've had to resort to childish name calling. Just like so many other people have done. I always know I have the upper hand when people resort to such childishness and some people never seem to learn; they keep resorting to the same childishness over and over. It's funny to see it because they tend not to realise they're doing it :P.
