After over four years in the form of three iOS iPhone and the iPad first generation I return the apple to relax the back, just to enjoy under Google's flag on newfound freedom - I have discovered for myself Android.
How this came about and how the first contact with Ice Cream Sandwich for an iOS creature of habit like me feels like I will not hide from you.
Unlike in most cases, the decision was and the decision for Android rather than after careful consideration or even an intense weigh the advantages and disadvantages of the various systems in terms of my needs, but is much more spontaneous nature: I'm in love easily . To what extent this fact to the device, which is due by the system given freedom or even my bias by years of iOS experience, I can not really answer - it is, however, that the me the whole package of Android (Ice Cream Sandwich) and Motorola RAZR i drew after the first start of his spell.
Decided while a comparison of hardware, given the more than widely spaced launches the iPhone 3GS and the RAZR i from the outset is seen that on the software side of course different. Even at the risk here unleash a further, unnecessary, in my opinion discussion on the question of the "better" system, I can not deny that my Android in fact appeals more than any previously available version of iOS. The reasons are not about the failure of Apple's or particularly outstanding features of Google's Android, but simply in me: I am a very freedom-loving people and spend also usually have more time to it, devices to my special needs, as those in the real sense . use
Against this background, experienced with Android "love at first (exact) view" is not surprising, because freedom stingy with the system - on the contrary to iOS - well not really. Whether it was about the installation of applications, managing media, or the choice of a default browser, accumulated from the beginning to the moments when my Android offering course options, which would carry on iOS to only by a jailbreak . In fact, I even spent money on iOS software, which imposed without the bypass Apple's barricades would never have found their way onto my iPhone and - surprise - even these can be found after the first start in the settings. Through the seemingly endless freedom creeps me almost feel that my smartphone for the first time really belongs to me - I would give it but not anymore anyway.
Although iOS feels now beginning to sound like some kind of very heavy, digital cage, but still holds advantages that have been supported by those same cage. Apps, for example, specifically with regard to the offer: While it may seem somewhere amusing to stumble across countless displayed similar applications that would have also apparently cut them a name, the efficiency in finding useful applications of this fact is anything but as appropriate. In my case it is not a serious problem, for smartphone newbies, this "lack of transparency" (or freedom?) But can quickly lead to frustration. However, I do not regret my decision at all - quite the contrary.
