    .... ^^^ ... Yes ... But every iPhone that I have ever had worked 100% of the time ... 100% with zero problems. (3G & 3Gs & 4 & 4S have all worked flawlessly).

    Androids can do more stuff and are most sophisticated but are too complicated for my type of use.

    Got iOS devices. Got Android devices. Would take Android over iOS any day ... mostly because I'm an IT consultant, and I hate how locked down Apple is. Root an Android, and the sky's the limit.

    iPhone is quite a solid phone and has a pretty good reputation.... for me personally, i like to change things up when id like to. iPhone is so bland and can get boring.

    root the android like MountainEarth said :)
