Android > iPhone

Posted on 11 November 2009 by Nick

After a few years of “dealing” with AT&T I have most recently switched to T-Mobile about 6 months ago. For the longest time I was one of the people that always said “Oh nothing will ever be greater than my iPhone.”  Well truth be told the Motorola Cliq has just hit a home run with me, that’s right android has won my heart haha. Granted the iPhone was a pretty big hit over the past 2+ years but in retrospect I only ever used the phone for games or apps that helped pass the time while I was sitting in sociology lectures. Sure they had some decent apps for your social networking sites, but this is where the Cliq stands very strong. One touch status updates will automatically direct all status’ to Facebook, Twitter, Myspace wherever all at once. The iPhone forces you to select app, wait for it to load, and then login. With the Cliq it’s simply, touch and go. This phone is a socializing giant and I have a feeling iPhone app developers are falling all over themselves to try and jump on the bandwagon to try and compete. They better be working quickly because the MOTOBLUR is expected to be running on more than ten devices in the coming months.

Like I’ve stated I have had T-Mobile for a while now and it’s not just the new phone that I am so happy with, I am more so overwhelmed by their generosity and customer service. The last thing I remember getting from AT&T was my iPhone and I was “assisted” by some cold, hard headed, foreign bitch that didn’t want to do anything! I straight up left the store and ended up ordering one online instead of dealing with that. After my contract ended there was no way I was staying with AT&T. I was either going to hack the iPhone and use it on T-Mobile or just get a new phone when I switched. Long story short I gave up on the iPhone. After a few months of using a Blackberry 8320 and a Moto Zine I decided to look into upgrading my plan which consisted of 600 minutes and unlimited texts. After a day of deliberation and much help from T-Mobiles customer service and billing department I decided on getting the new Moto Cliq and the Even More Plus plan that included 1000 minutes, unlimited text and unlimited data which only amounted to $20 more a month than I was all ready paying.

All in all T-Mobile gets a well deserved 10 out of 10. With such strong phones like the G1, Moto Cliq, MyTouch, and numerous others that will come out running android, you pair that up with their new rate plans and I wouldn’t be surprised at all if people start dropping their current providers at the end of their contracts and start switching.
