Another moron comparing 100k apple apps to 10k android apps. 95% of apple app store is pure shit and everyone knows it. maybe 100 tops are worth anything.

100,000 Apps...90% of which people don't actually use.

@asemh Android is taking over. Once people get used to it, the customization is an excellent feature. For Iphone, you use the phone the way apple wants you to. You dont speak for everyone, if users dont want to customize anything then I dont think android phones would be as successful as they are now. I love customization, and im sure all those people who have droids do too

I don't have an iphone and from what he said, i understand what he is saying. I went to the store to check it out. It needs work, especially with the touch screen. It was acting all crazy and the menu was complicated. But I would get it but not with out the 2 year upgrade. Not worth 300 dollars. WE NEED IPHONE VERIZON!

well sure, it has been longer but that doesn't change the fact for someone that wants to buy a phone "now".

This "customization" you are talking of is the reason why the iPod is successful and so is the iPhone. Users don't want to customize anything. They want something that is "easy" to use, with sensible defaults.

This is easily the worst review on Youtube. Next time, attempt to point out the phone's positives, instead of comparing it to every phone on the market.

I came on Youtube looking for an honest review of the phone, and all I got from this video is that Android doesn't have as many Apps as the iPhone, the Droid's keyboard pales in comparison to Blackberry's and the media player is not as good as on the iPhone.

It's nice to know that it's a touchscreen device. Because we all didn't know that.
