Samsung Galaxy S3 or iPhone 5?

[Calla]

I have a Samsung Galaxy S3 (and I am 17 years old), and it is my first Android device. I think that you should definitely make the switch. Here's why.

Apple likes to update iOS regularly, and they don't always consider previous generation hardware. So like owners of the iPhone 3GS, for instance, are forced to update to the newest iOS upgrade or their phone won't work. But when they upgrade, they realize that their couple-year-old phone can't handle the operating system. Basically, Apple just wants you to buy the newest thing.

Whereas Android is open source. Even the oldest Android phones can handle the current Android version.

If you get an iPhone, you will be forced to get a new phone in a few years. If you get a Samsung Galaxy S3, you will be able to keep it without problems for a long, long time.

Music: There are a lot of ways to get iTunes on your Android phone - I am not going to go into them, but I do it quite easily. I sync iTunes with my Android phone without a lot of hassle. So don't let that worry you.
