I am not sure if Apple fans should be happy that iOS > Android in US or Android fans should be happy that Android > iOS for rest of the world :P

iPhone users are happy because they get great developer support and their devices retain high resale value.

And Android fans shouldn't be happy that they get more bang for the buck ?.

You are telling that iOS users should be happy that they have resale value?. so people who want to sell their devices should be the one getiing the iPhone?

App developers support can be much more arguable.

Both Android and iPhone has around equal numbers of apps.

I've been on an iPhone since the 3G, bought it for 200 on contract, 2 year later, sold it for more then that and used that money for iPhone 4 [on contract]. This year I got an iPhone 5 with the money I got selling my iPhone 4. [on contract]

I think I'm doing pretty good not paying for a phone in the last 4 years. Of course you could say that I'm paying for it with the monthly bills, but I've been paying 50* bucks a month for my phone since the iPhone 4. 200 for the 4 iphones in my family.

*unlimited talk and text and 3GB data.

 

Chances are in 2 years, I'll upgrade to the iPhone 6 for free.
