until wp7 has insanely awesome integration with googles services I'm sticking with my Galaxy Nexus.

This comment was voice to texted on my gnex.


Lets see, maybe WP already covers Google services you need...

WP syncs with Gmail perfectly.

I have a Gmaps app on my Windows phone which gives me google maps and all of the services it has on  a platter to me.

I have a Picasa app which works wondefully in letting me see, share and upload pictures to Picasa

I have a google search app...its a text box just like the one you have on android

There is a Google Messenger client app as well, but I never used it.

What Google services is it missing?

Google Wallet, Google Docs, Navigation w/ voice turn by turn, Google Voice (for search and anything else, so not like wp), Google Music (100% cloud and fully free storage for 20,000 songs), ....

Plus on thing Google gives me that Apple and MS don't do the same or at all. I NEVER need to connect my phone to a computer. Google is 100% based on cloud/internet. I just log in and BAM all my stuff returns to my phone in minutes. I don't have to sync with any crappy computer software. AND its all FREE. No iCloud fees, no iTunes or whatever MS uses, nothing but my gmail login.

iOS is very simple and straight forward, but you pay more money up front and in apps to equal Android's experience.

WP7 is more streamlined as an OS, but it just doesn't offer the same overall experience.... for a cost or free.

Android has the most variety in hardware and software, it has the latest hardware, it offers the most software for free, ... its just the best overall mobile package.

OH and iOS and WP can't cusomize shit! I can change the entire way my phone looks without root and with root I can literally and/remove any functionality.
