Galaxy Nexus or iPhone 4: Which Is Better?

Moving from Apple?s iOS to Google?s Android.

After jumping from the iPhone 4 to Samsung Galaxy Nexus and using that steadily for around 15 months (Still use an iPad for tablet), going back to iOS is like putting on a straight jacket.

What I think?you?ll?miss

Going from iOS to Android with iPhone 4 and Samsung Galaxy Nexus

  • Android?s notification centre
  • The aforementioned intents
  • Ability to set defaults
  • iOS?s homescreen is dogshit, think of it as an organisable Android app tray. So you can only order and folder icons. You?can?t?even hide all the preloaded Apple stuff like Weather, Email, Safari and Maps that?you?ll?replace with Chrome, Solar, Mailbox and Google Maps. You can do like most people by putting them in an ?Apple? folder and hiding that on your last?home screen. Winning!
  • No Widgets. I dislike flashy widgets but I do use the Inbox and Calendar on Android. Even if you loathe them, iOS uses its?home screen?wastefully. It?s particularly egregious on the iPad where it just lists a 4?5 grid of icons with?extra wide?margins.
  • Severely Limited Cross-App Sharing. It shits me to no end that I cannot be in a browser and share the page?I?m?reading to Pocket. It has to be one of Apple?s pre-approved apps for Safari: Mail, Message, Twitter, Facebook. Chrome on iOS is a little better (adds G+ and Gmail), but overall quite poor.
  • iOS?s multitasking is unintuitive: If you want to close an app on your iPhone you need to double tap a physical home button that opens your multitasking tray, scroll to what you want, press and hold an icon till the little ?X? shows up then hit that. If that sounds clumsy and antiquated to you, then?you?re?right. It?s better on iPad by virtue of gestures (4 finger swipe up to open tray), but on iPhone it?s as clunky as ever. It?s not surprising I broke my iPhone 4?s home button, I was probably hitting it several hundred times a day.?I?ve?shied away from phones with actuating home buttons ever since.

That said, there are strengths to iOS that might make it worth the transition eg, the wealth of quality apps that are usually better and arrive earlier.

The gaming situation on iOS is also leaps and bounds ahead of Android.
