Droids do.
3) It's illegal to put any other operating system on an Iphone. Apple reserves the right to press charges if you do. Anyways, there are no alternative systems for Iphones in the first place.
Droids on the other hand, they have Cyanogenmod, which in my opinion both outclasses IOS4.1 and Honeycomb.
4) Cameras
4G camera, 5MP, yes it does take better pictures.
Droids, 8 MP, lower quality pictures.... unless you want to actually zoom in. An Iphone will just distort an image while Droids have a TRUE zoom.
Video, I'm not even going to compare, Droids win that.
5) All of the apps there there are for an Iphone, there are for a Droid. That simple.
People make these threads simply because they want to see what people actually think, unlike places like CNET which are completely analytics. They want to see actual people's opinions before they buy something.
1. People do not buy phones for their hardware. Sorry but this is entirely true, and has always been true. Comparing on a purely hardware basis is flawed beyond belief.
2. iPhonse with 4g have 4g.
3. Many people jailbreak iPhones, at this point your argument is moot.
4. Phones do not need cameras better than 1 or 2 MP. Camera quality varies between models. Droid's zoom is very limited, as limited as iPhone's. Why is anyone zooming in the first place? As for video it is practically identical no matter how you look at it...
5. So droid is 'at best' as good as iPhone... I loled. Well anyway, a lot of apps are not available on Droid, and vice versa. What you mean to say is 'some apps have counterparts with equivilent functionality'...
6. CNET is heavily bias towards Android right?
Lol. That will be all. Some people, educated buyers, do.
4g stand for 4th generation. Less than 10% of all Iphones currently have a 4G network, ~60% are locked into a contract with At&t, the rest dont have Verizon in their area or dont know that they do not really have 4G.
Jailbreaking isn't putting a different OS on it, it just unlocks features that you would otherwise have to pay for.
Higher megapixel = higher resolution = higher quality pictures, for the most part.

Think of it like textures in TB, if you resize it, it loses quality. That's what the Iphone's zoom does.
What are people doing zooming in, in the first place? To take a picture of something that's further away, duh.
I never said that either was better. Every app that you find on an iphone, you can find the exact same thing on a droid, that or a recreation.
I just used CNET as an example because they're a well known review site. Most review sites are heavily analytic, and dont really think of the functionality as much as they do hardware and stuff.
All of the functionality is in the OS.
But since they have the same functions for the most part, the only difference in my mind is the Droid's UI which is customizable to your preference, unlike the iphone where you can rearrange your icons. :/

1) That is a contract issue, not a phone issue. If you sign up for 3g, then you can't expect 4g. Buy 4g if you want 4g.
2) Jail-breaking allows illegal modifications, such as OS modifications and if you really want, linux
3) Digital zoom will never compare with optical zoom. All having 8MP will do is give you 300mb images. I have read quite a few articles on taking photos with phones, be it iPhone or galaxy 2, and it all comes down to "phone cameras suck for macro or long range". The idea of resolution = quality is stupid.
4) Although you talk a lot about "UI being customisable", 99% of people won't do this. And the few that do will make their phone worse...
