Is an iPhone better than android?

I want the iPhone 5 but I hate paying for iTunes. But I also want the galaxy note 2 bc it's a better screen. Btw I'm always using my phone for oovoo, instagram, twitter, and playing games off app. Which should I get?

IPhone.

I prefer iPhones because androids seem to have a lot more problems in the operating system and general internal problems and glitches. The glass screen breaks easily but with an otter box it's hard to do and it's so much better than any plastic screen can be. I've had my iPhone for about two years and it still runs perfectly and has never had any problems or a cracked screen. Everyone I know who has an android says they are problematic on a pretty regular basis after a while.

Well there are high end android phones and low end android phones. A contender (and lot more powerful phone) on the android side would be the galaxy s3 or galaxy note 2. I sold my iphone 5 to but a galaxy note 2 because this thing has a quad core processor and 2gb of ram. Very fluent android experience. On the other hand, if you want everything you do to be locked down to itunes and the app store and willing to overpay for technology that is already considered ancient. Then yeah go for the iphone. One thing I can hand to apple is the image processing chip that they have in the iphone 4s and iphone 5.
edit: also the galaxy note 2 has better quality glass on the screen so it doesn't break as easy. (gorilla glass 2)

Here you have the detailed comparison of both Android and Apple, but according to me, i would vote for Android, even Apple uses Google Maps, this is utter shame.

Choosing an iPhone or Android phone isn't a simple task. While both phones offer a lot of great features, they may seem so similar that it's hard to distinguish between them. If you look closely, though, you'll find that there are some key differences. For me I choose iPhone because I'm comfortable with it.
