Android far superior in my opinion. I had an iPhone many years ago, but Android for the past several, and am happy I did. The latest Jelly Bean release on Android is awesome.

Yep google now and search rock.

Took years of pain and busting a few accounts before finally got my mind right. I survived the darkness within and now just chillax and let my black box do the work."

For my money, I would go with the Droid Razr MAXX. I got it the day it launched in Jan. You cannot beat the battery life on this phone. I can go 2 days before charging. I use my phone for text, voice and email . I do very little surfing. Took it off the charger almost 11 hours ago and the battery is still at 80%.

I have the original Droid RAZR and agree it is a great phone. Battery life is awesome, and still incredibly competitive display and size even almost a year later.

Just stay away from iphone unless you want Apple to own you. They are no longer that innovative and are steps behind Google in most respects. I have a Samsung Galaxy Nexus running Jellybean but would highly recommend the Galaxy III. It is one nice piece of hardware.

Great to hear this advice from a US user.

As noted above I too would wait for Note 2 if possible, or perhaps a used Note 1? Or any other Samsung, so many to choose from.

Wouldn't wait for an iPhone 5. Probably a copy of the Samsung Galaxy S3 anyway.

I have the original Samsung Galaxy S3. Just one Apple product, a 3 year old iPod. Enough.

We had an (presumably but probably so) independent consumer test on mobile phones.
Galaxy S3 excelled in all respects and won a resounding victory over all other mobiles, including iPhones...

My several times rooted and flashed Galaxy S is just wonderful so I do not want to give it up too soon but S3 really rocks.

Thank you to all for responding.

For some reason untill one clicks the answer button, the "Thanks" button will not show.

That is by design of the Question board, you have to select an answer before you can thank the post.

Soooooo ... the choice is being "owned" by Apple .... or being stalked by Google

I'm just a simple man trading a simple plan.

Well said TMFT, I wanted to get away from Apple. Google's insidious handling of the Android interface is equally if not more offensive.

And the S3 Galaxy is a horrible phone, over hyped, non intuitive and Gorilla glass is a joke. An 800dollar phone that feels cheap. I expect iPhone 5 sales to wipe away the Android fanboy notion that Apple's days are done.

I have had nothing but issues with S3 myself. I call it Samsung Garbage 3.

Epic Fail

I have preferred Motorola hardware over Samsung for a long while, but Samsung is clearly the winner when it comes to Android devices (sales). Perhaps that changes with Google's acquisition of Moto.

Just root the phone and do a custom ROM and you can get rid of all the 'bloatware' on the phone.

Google makes money on the information it gathers. I suspect majority of people prefer it this way. You of course are free to pay for search, pay for maps, pay for backup, pay for instant messaging, pay for video messaging, or any of the other hundred things that are free because of the incentive by Google to give you those things in exchange for collecting data.
