Steve is dead. Apple has gone downhill.

Didn't claim otherwise. Like I said, "in my personal experience".

I like both. I like the stability of Apple products. I like the customization of google products. I have no major complaints against either company.

I own android products.


About 2 years ago, I decided I was gonna buy a position in either Google or Apple, they were both hovering around $500/share. I rarely buy single stocks, and I almost never put more than $2K in anything all at once.

All the tech savvy people I knew were using android products, I liked where Google was going, I liked their financials and I bought 30 shares.

I'm extremely happy with that decision, especially with the recent split

It's a good example of how competition generates innovation and excellence. Take either out of the picture and what remains is domination and less incentive to be either excellent or creative. Statism/government domination is a good example of what you get without competition/profit motive.

I disagree. iOS is amazing. Android can be.

The only better aspect is the downloadable content markets. Apple crushes Google in that area. As for the operating system itself, I have to disagree with you. I don't think there is much difference between the two. I think it just comes down to one question: do you like a shite load of features and flexibility or do you like simplicity?

Your last sentence probably says it all.

I hated my galaxy 2 and that's why I switched to iPhone. I liked the features but hated how slow and glitchy it was. My sister has the s4 and it seems pretty sweet though.

Apple hasn't done anything notable since the iPad--that ended a very revolutionary and impressive streak from iPod, to iPhone, to iPad.

Jobs is gone, and with him the innovation died. Stick a fork in them.

You can get anything you want off of Google Play. This is vastly overstated. There may be games on one and not the other, and iTunes may have "more" but the major stuff is on both platforms.
