That's on paper - maybe. I like Anandtech, but some of his conclusions didn't make much sense this time. I've already seen better looking games for Tegra 3 than anything available on iOS right now. If you go back to his review of iPhone 4S, you'll see he actually says in his "real" testings, that the A5 GPU only has

You do realize there are NO apps on Windows for ARM don't you? Sure they "might" bring Office for ARM on time for Win8 launch, but I wouldn't hold my breath. Plus, it will be a much simpler version than the x86 one. You can bet on that. It's possible that some Android apps right now will be more advanced than their

But Android is much more unified than Microsoft's ecosystem. Sure, they might have similar UI, but that's about it. You won't get cross-platform games that seamlessly work on WP7, Windows 8 and Xbox. All 3 have 3 entire different OS's.

Now that iPhone has caught up a bit with Android in background services, it's finally revealed that the iPhone didn't have any "magical" battery life. It just didn't do as much as an Android phone. I can imagine it would be even worse if it had the type of multi-tasking Android has.

Why do you say it's second best? At what can possibly be second best? At having a lower MP camera? Everything else is just better. Even the photo capture speed that Apple bragged about on stage, is now demolished by the Galaxy Nexus' zero-shutter lag.

I guess the Galaxy Nexus with Android 4.0 is not out yet, but that will change soon. Oh and:

That's purely a hardware issue. Plus, A5 manages to be that strong in GPU because the whole SoC is twice as big as other dual core processors, where the majority of the size increase goes to the GPU. That comes at a price, though. iPhone 4S battery life is now about 30% smaller than iPhone 4, and even less than some

Yeah but then how would they make their point?

Siri has about equal quality in results to Google Voice Actions. The only thing that it has in addition is the talking back to you - text to speech.

Wasn't ready for what? Voice actions does what Siri does, too, without the talking back. Siri is not "ready". It's just another evolutionary step. It will be "ready" when it's smarter than a human.

Except Iris isn't even one of the best Android alternatives. I'd expect them to at least compare the best.

Iris is getting more media coverage because it appeared on Techcrunch, so in blogger-copy-blogger fashion everyone else is posting about it, without even checking if it's the best alternative, first. I think Speaktoit is better.

Especially at this point, I would choose Android. Can you imagine where it will be in another 3 years with this evolution pace? While iOS will remain more or less the same.

Joshua Topolsky from The Verge seems to think it's better than iPhone 4's display.

Why would they have "retina" in the specs sheet? It's just Apple's marketing name meant to describe a 300+ PPI display.

Is this another Courier?

Ebuddy used to be good for Android and all the other platforms, too. But lately they've become very lazy I think, which is why IMO passe them.

Me neither, for the same reason. Metro looks too retro in my book.

It's just you. It will take iOS 2 or 3 years to catch-up with all the features added in Android 4.0.
