Both are bad, Apple needs to stop the parts locking (like not being able to use all the features on a replaced screen without their approval), and Android companies have to be better about giving support for their phones.
Keep both accountable, let's leave the console wars bs in 2008.
I agree, and I am not here trying to start some Apple vs Android war. My comparison was just to give some perspective on the competition.
The thing is, there is no one monolithic competition called "Android", it's a host of vendors and manufacturers that have agreed on a common operating system. You will see a great amount of variation between all the different Android OEMs, variation that also affects software support.
We need a third option.
