    I've had an iPhone 4 for forever, and my upgrade is coming up. I think I'm going to go with a Galaxy. I have a Nexus 7 tablet that runs on Android, and it's a lot more intuitive to me than Apple. It has it's uses, but the business I'm working on runs almost everything through Google, so Android just makes more sense with its wide compatibility and open-source format.

    The only downside is viruses, but I use Avast! as my security system, and it works like a charm.

    S4. Great phone. I don't like apple stuff to begin with. But androids are great, what ever storage you want with a removable sd card.

    iPhone 5S or Samsung Galaxy S4?
    I had an iphone 4 and upgraded to an s3. Hated the s3 so i traded back and got the iphone 5. Havent had a single complaint with the iphone 5.

    Im used to apple stuff from wayyyy back when i got my first ipod. Im not big on the extreme customization crap that androids offer. Its just not something that appeals to me as a feature, i just don't care lol. The iphone has enough customization options for me. I like the size of the iphone better too. I have normal sized hands but couldnt navigate all of the s3's screen with just one hand which i found really annoying. The swype texting feature was another thing that i just didn't care for and without using that the s3's keyboard wasn't as fast as the iphones i was used to. The camera on the iphone was better too. I took better pics and it was faster. I mainly use my phone for forum browsing on tapatalk, Facebooking, texting/calling, email, camera for taking pics and as a navigation device. I sometimes listen to music but its rare. I dont play games or watch movies so i have no need for a huge screen. I don't get wrapped up in a ton of different apps and crap so all the customization stuff is just useless fluff to me. I LIKE the iphones smaller size so it can fit it my pocket more easily.

    Thats just my rant. Others will agree/disagree but thats how i see it from my *personal experience* with both phones. Imo you really cant talk crap unless you've tried both and decided that way. Ultimately its up to you to decide what you need/want to get out of your phone and who will be able to do it better for you. :)

    You can do SO much stuff you can do with galaxy s4 and so limited constricted with iphone. Yet, iphone has more up-to-date apps but it doesnt make that much of difference.

    I have had my Galaxy S4 for 3 months now and I love it, I did Flash a custom Rom to my phone to get rid of all of the bloatware and I couldn't be happier with the result. I hear a lot of people complain about the hang time or lag on their S4, but I don't get any.

    It's all in what you're looking for in a phone. With Android if you don't like something change it from the keyboard to the total layout of the phone. Apple is kind of like going to a 3 star restaurant no salt and pepper shakers on the table. The way they see it is the way it come to the table is they way they think you'll enjoy it. So if you like to fiddle with things and tweak every last nanopixle then go anyother phone than iPhone.

    P.S Android is an operationg system iPhone is a hardware device you can't compare hardware to software.
