I've come to the realization that people don't fully read the sentiments that I posted on this thread. I realize my attitude towards apple will always be the same and I know that they do have good devices. Its the attitude of the company and the users that get on my nerves. I don't understand why Apple users have the need to say their device is better when they don't even understand the devices its self. They don't know a single difference between a CPU and a LCD screen. They can't even state what a Retina display is, however "its better". Albeit that may be true for some displays they don't understand why it's better, they were just fed that it's better.
When I first became an Android user it seemed like the first time I dabbled in Linux and I got excited. I started telling everyone that they needed to get an Android and to fuck their iShit, yes I was an Android fanboy, just as bad as any Apple fanboy. However over time I realized that Android comes easy for me, I'm used to configuration, modding, and hacking, however not everybody has that same passion for technology like I do. Is Android more innovative, yes, that's a fact but it doesn't mean that Apple isn't. Apple can take a brick, polish it up and it becomes a beautiful device that has people clamoring. Is there a problem with that? Absolutely not. Apples are made for the general public, a device that just works with few to no problems, why? Extensive testing and development and quality assurance. They release 1 device a year that the software speaks wonderfully with the hardware which makes for less powerful specs, but a more smooth user experience. It also helps with OS fragmentation, for example Google keeps throwing in new shit that Android devices 2 years ago could never use. They have a severe OS fragmentation issue. I remember when froyo was coming out, I had flash on my android phone while people were still rocking 1.5-1.6 Android. Some devices are still 2.3 (Gingerbread) and Honeycomb (3.0) was like the Vista of Android. ICS and JB are getting there but there are still devices on gingerbread that can't support ICS or JB. But do you see the issue, the people on gingerbread get stuck behind the curve, if they were on Apple, they wouldn't be. They get to use the latest features.
In the end, your device whether it be Android or Apple will depend on the type of person you are. If you're not tech inclined there's pretty much no choice but to get an Apple, an Android will be confusing and hard to use. Even if you are tech inclined, you may like things to be smooth and constantly working without having to configure it. How many tech guys use Windows over Linux because it's easier? Sure they may be dual booted with Linux, or have a laptop with Linux, but shit there's no denying the fact that Windows is easier then Linux. But then you have that group, that group where making your devices personal is required. If you can't mod it the way you want your device to be, look, and act, why would you want it? That is the place where Android really speaks, the ability to change every part of your device down to the kernel, that's the true reason Android trumps Apple. BUT if you don't have the knowledge, ability, or capacity to learn to do that on Android, then obviously it's not for you. There is no absolute "This one is better than that one" just "This one is better
for me than that one"
That's where the problems arise, one is simply not just better than the other, its user opinion. Sure specs may seem better but that's not the only factor in deciding superiority. There are several factors that depend on people, not the device.
