But the one that trumps it all? IOS. It's the reason I use an iphone. Apple's operating software is second to none. It's a million times safer, more stable and THAT, is the reason to use the phone.

I had an iPhone. It crashed more than my GS2.

THAT, is the reason NOT to use iPhone.

Well that and many more reasons....

Personally my itouch has never crashed on me once, while I don't go a day without my droid phone crashing from trying to open google maps or trying to use the camera. Infact it's gotten to the point where my droid is basically just for calls, texts, and tethering  for my itouch to do any "smartphone" functions I need to do.

Also the vast majority of my friends and siblings own android phones. Every single one of them complains about crashing. So I'm not the only one who experiences these issues. Though I guess all that is is anecdotal evidence, but I'm pretty positive android phones are more known for their crashing than iphones.

I'm assuming this is due to IOS being a closed system as apposed to android where users are more prone to messing with settings or installing a poorly optomised or malicious app. Regardless I'm probably going to try windows 8 phones once I can upgrade. I appreciate everything usually "just working" with the iphone but my itouch is good enough for that experience, and my droid 3 has turned me off completely from android.

I have to be honest and say I've heard more complaints from Android users regarding crashes but I'm not sure if that's a carrier problem or specific apps or settings.

Pretty much everyone I know has switched from IOS to Android whithin the past 6-12 months and no-one has complained about crashing so I'm not sure if something might be region related too (I'm in Australia).

Also everyone I know who owns an Android phone has a higher end model so maybe that has something to do with it.
