Old school iPhone girl contemplating cheating with Android.

Congrats! Sounds like the challenge is solved ;)

I've only ever had Androids and love them to death. I don't like the operator limitations the Iphone has.

My boyfriend has been an Iphone fanboy since Gen 1 and has had Iphones since they first came out. He finally decided to make the switch the the Galaxy S4 from the Iphone 4s. And he loves the S4.

He said this to me, "The Iphone was amazing when it first came out. It was ahead of it's time. But it hasn't really changed much since Gen 1, while Androids have been improving each year."

I just made a switch over to a smart phone in August. Finally joined the world of being able to do more than just make phone calls on a phone! :D

I got an S4. I can't really compare to anything else, since this is my first smart phone, but I LOVE it. It did take me a little bit to get used to it, but nothing worse than just getting used to a new phone period. I actually find it much easier to use and easier to learn than the "dumb phone" I have for work (no idea what model it is, but it's a flip phone!). I love all the features and apps it has. I find it pretty easy to use and fairly intuitive (now that I'm used to it, and I'm no technological genius either - I'm the kind of person that plays around with it until I either break it or figure it out! lol). I can do a lot with all the apps available (including play games, who knew! lol). Now that I have internet included into my plan, I can also better conduct my personal business while on the go. Not sure how much that helps you, or what it is you are looking for in a phone, so just basically telling you my experience. Like I said, I'm still very new to smartphones, and don't really have anything to compare to.

I had an Iphone up until the 4, then I switched to an android s4. Love it!! The camera on it rules! I think it is much faster. Or so it seems. The screen size is bigger. My husband has the iphone5 and it's like a tiny, mini phone compared to mine. Too small to work with, especially if you use it for other tasks besides making phone calls. ;)

yep, i run a galaxy s3 with a custom rom, 16gb stock with an external 64gb ultra sandisk
:gj::gj::gj::gj:

I have had android phones ever since they came out. In fact, I think I still have the first android phone that came out with Verizon. I have been contemplating trying out the new iPhone 5s when it comes out in 4 days. Verizon does have a 30 return policy so if I end up not liking it I can always go back to android. But I'm wondering about just getting the S4 and not even try to make the jump to apple.

Android is basically everything an iphone could be, but you'd have to illegally jailbreak your iphone to do any of it. It's all stock on android (basically) and you can still do even more.

And it's not like the android market is empty, sure some apps aren't fully functioning because the market is unregulated. Some apps don't look as pretty as it's iphone counterpart (apply as GUI support to make things look pretty). But if theres a critical error or problem with apps, devs can push updates the market immediately, they don't have to wait for apple review to get it going.

For example, at one point I couldn't view photos on tapatalk so I reported it through the app and on their bug forum for tapatalk 4 android and within 12 hours they pushed out a fix for android. pretty awesome.

You guys are making my decision quite easy. I think I might hit up the mall soon and just do it. No sense thinking it to death lol.

I LOVE NEW THINGS!!!

That's exactly what the rep I spoke to earlier said. Gen 1 iPhone was off the hook but its updates are minimal

You should totally cheat! I'm an android girl. I had an HTC, but I really love Galaxy! I got my S3 when the S4 came out and I always get a phone when it first comes out and I always regret it. I'm very happy with my S3 though! I'm ready to see what's after the S4!
