iPhone's Man Adventures in Androidland

Dan Gleibitz, on The Verge’s forums:

I’m left with mixed feelings. I like the Nexus 4, but it can’t replace my iPhone. For a first-time smartphone buyer who hasn’t already become reliant on iCloud services and iOS apps for which Android doesn’t offer an alternative, it’s probably a fine choice. Certainly a whole different class of device to shitty cheap Galaxy phones. But there’s a reason why I’ve become reliant on those iCloud services and iOS app: they’re really good.
