If you're thinking about making the switch from iOS to Android, I would recommend taking a look at the new HTC One vs. the Samsung. And as jd previously mentioned, changing to Verizon Edge will give you access to phone upgrades but will negatively affect your monthly bill. |

When I open a photo gallery on my Droid X2, it doesn't automatically broadcast that picture to any Samsung DNLA-enabled device. The Galaxy S3/S4 do. When I watch a Youtube via on my Droid X2 and show it to a friend, it doesn't pause. The Galaxy S3/S4 do. These are just a couple of examples of extra "features" that Samsung has added that aren't necessary unless you're fully invested in the Samsung ecosystem. |

The fact is no phone is perfect, my recommendation is find the phone that is comfortable in your hand and in your pocket or wherever it may be and one that has good reviews from multiple independent sources. I personally weigh battery life as a very important feature. I don't care if you think you have the most awesome phone on the planet if it's dead then what does it matter? And I'm not talking about putting a mophie case on it either, that's cheating.

I haven't had a big issue with the iPhone 5 but battery life on the 4 was TERRIBLE.
Battery life on the Droid X2 is better than any phone I've had but it's my work phone and doesn't have a ton of apps on it. |
Chiefs Pantalones: If you're looking to switch, just be aware that you're moving from one ecosystem to another. So if you use things like iTunes Match, Photo Stream or any of the other iOS related glue you'll be starting over.

There's also this (yes I'm quoting myself. Deal with it.):

Thank you guys.
I'm not too knowledgable on android and iPhone app stuff. What is the difference between the two if any at all? Do they have the same apps, etc? |

As someone who develops for both platforms I can tell you that it makes almost no difference if someone is on Android 4.1 or 4.4. Just like iOS 7.0 and 7.1 EDIT: Oh and the 19% of the Android users on old versions are cheap knock off tablets and such. It's damn hard to find anyone in the US with a phone that isn't on version 4 The "fragmentation" argument is all sorts of stupid these days. |

Just to re-emphasize how old my phone is: Android 2.3.3
