Whatever is cheapest.

Honestly there's really nothing in it App or performance-wise or in the general experience of the OSs. Anyone who tells you different merely has a pseudo-religious devotion to an electronic device. And why would you listen to anyone who worships a phone, or a phone OS? It's as bad as worshiping a console...

Personally I'm an ABA (Anything But Apple) because of the cult of Apple. But if the cult of Apple doesn't leave a bad taste in your mouth then the iPhone is a very good device, just like all the other high end smartphones.

What do you do when you have a genuinely objective choice between high quality devices? You make a cost-benefit analysis and go with the one that comes out best on that. I don't know anything about 4 (or 3.9)G LTE so that could be quite a big deal and could make all the difference in terms of choice. But iPhone 5 isn't the only 4G LTE phone available, so why has the choice come down to a 4G iPhone and a non-4G Nexus?

What bothers me the most with Android is how the performance of the phones suffer after a while. Unless you basically keep it as close as possible to what it was when you first purchased it. While the iPhone runs butter smooth at all time no matter what. At least, from my experience with both formats.

Interesting. I never load phones up with lots of Apps so I can't comment either way. But time, of itself, hasn't caused any degradation in performance.
