Today bought my GALAXY s ii from Jumbocorp in UAE...was damn excited also wanted to find out the goodness of android users always talk about..
switched the phone...screen is great..no doubt...went here and there ok it was good not bad went to app store...really awful xperience..lack of quality apps...just bunch of different task managers..themes....games(lets not talk abt it),some useful utilities though...but not groundbreaking,battery life i am not at all concerned,build quality also not that great the most disgusting part is that flimsy back cover of galaxy s 2...OMG it bends like jello..total plastic no premium stuffs but thank god that screen saves the look of it..
back to OS after using Android for almost 10hrs now...i can say the main strength of android is its EASY customization options...also watched some youtube vids for so called custom ROMS...to me it looked like it just changes the theme of the device like putting OS of HTC or xperia in S2
at the end of the day i am happy that i got the best android phone but not that happy with it as compared to my iP4...
went back to ip4 the screen sorry but retina produces far more natural colors and the viewing angle OMG...iP4 icons and text r almost visible far from my desk...where as S2 flushes away...galaxy S2 have some aggressive brightness and contrast in one way you can say it produces artificial colors..but hey it looks good but when side by side with iP4 its not that great
app store of APPLE......apple wins it by miles...google has to do a lot of work in this dept..third party apps?? opened cydia and it will take hours to browse cydia and also superb apps....really now i can say how huge jailbreaking community is...its immense like an ocean..just type anything and it will appear and quality appears from top to bottom level..its ur choice...
the most talked FLASH and multitasking android....it hardly came to use in real life....at the end it just remained as a feature at one corner..
so at the end of the day i am very happy with android and ios... stock ios is just plain boring but jailbreaking it unleashes a whole new beast name any app,theme,living wallpaper..and u get it and customization is also top notch..
as for android it has still has a looong way to go the third party is not that great compared to jailbreaking community...
