Should I go for a iphone or a Android as my first smartphone if Android which one?

Android has more choices of hardware, more free apps, and less restrictive.
apple is slightly easier to use, but not quite as powerful

I would recommend an android, like the Samsung Galaxy S III or the Galaxy Note II.

GET A WINDOWS PHONE 8! The lumia 920 or the HTC 8X!
