Initially dismayed that corporate moved from the iPhone to the Android - citing cost - I figured I'd jump into the whole experience with an open-mind because of the fabulous display the Moto X has compared to the 4S, and the adulation of an entire generation of Android users. Plus, you know, Google, FFS. The same people who brought us...Google.

Anyway, after a couple of weeks of understanding how to do things - check Lotus Notes and personal email side-by-side, accept meeting invitations, set alarms in calendar, import contacts, I concluded why droid devices are so much less expensive than their iPhone counterparts:

They suck.

Indeed! I really enjoyed the Blackberry for that reason. Too bad the rest of the O/S couldn't keep up with the rest of the world :/

I've always had an Android. I have the Note 4 and my wife the iPhone 6. I am not a Satan worshiper, but I do prefer my Android over the iPhone.

My newest bitch is deleting 300+ text messages from Android. iPhone was, swipe/press. Android is, press/hold/wait/[change finger location]/press.

I'm sure Android does many other interface things faster/better than iPhone, I just haven't found anything which is applicable to my job functions :/

I don't get that many text messages. Try press and hold.
