The Iphone vs The Android part 2

After much debate and researching you probably won’t guess what phone I got! The Droid! You will probably see from my previous article, I was leaning a little towards the iphone but I guess I have to give my reasoning for getting the Droid. First let me pull out a comparison chart.

Specifications Motorola Droid Iphone
Picture images iphone_home
Memory (GB) 16 8
Display (pixels) 480×854 480×320
Camera (megapixels) 5 3.2
Weight (ounces) 7 6
Sound Quality Good Good
Talk Time (hours) 6.4 5
Multi-tasking Yes No
Multi-touch Capable but not enabled Yes

Now after looking at this chart you it will appear that the droid has out class the iphone but apple also has the iphone 3GS. Which has 16GB and faster processor. Also even though droid has better megapixels than the iphone the picture on the iphone looks better.When looking smartphones it really is a hard pick to choose which one you want because they possess so many capabilities and can be manipulated to cater to almost anybody. For example the iphone may not be able to multi-task but when jail broken it can multi-task. Jail breaking iphones is the act of hacking the operating system into an open operating system allowing you multi-task, download free apps, third-party apps and manipulate according to your liking.

So when it comes to me choosing a phone I look at the things I can’t change myself for example hardware and network speed. Reason why I choose the Droid is because it has a fast processor and Verizon as it’s network provider in which I greatly love their internet speed. And I have tested the AT&T connection it is good in a certain spots but not stable as Verizon. I will also say with usability the Droid is straight forward and simple as with the Iphone but I consider the usability on the Iphone more enjoyable. Probably because of the multi-touch, I wish they had that enabled for the droid already. But Google didn’t want to violate the patent by Apple and keep a good relationship between them. But I think Google still made the Droid to still be able to use multi-touch so someone could enable it themselves or release an update for it after things get settled with that.

When it comes down to picking a phone make sure you pick the one that relates to your personality and the way you are. I recognize that is always the best pick when selecting anytype of technology. So you must ask yourself are you a droid or an iphone?
