Hi Jeff! I want your opinion....is it a good deal to buy the Google Nexus 7? I like the new iPad very much, but it's too expensive for me. Can you help me, please? Thanks!

I remember I also wanted to mention I use the Flipboard App for all my iOS devices. It is great, it puts every social, news, and information source in a smart magazine style package.

Hey Jeff, are you finding yourself using the N7 over the new iPad?

[imariong]

It's actually 3.5". Thus holding it with one hand and doing everything with only one hand, is much easier. Easier than with the S3 and it's 4.8" screen. I don't want a tablet. I want a phone. But i do agree with you on the „android isn't confusing“ part.

I honestly think both companies are fantastic. The reason Android sells SO MANY phones and devices is because it sells to a certain crowd. And same with Apple. It all depends on your personal preferences. Personal. Remember that, no two people are EXACTLY alike. So everyone will like what they like. I, PERSONALLY, like Apple products. The transitions are smooth, and the shiny touch to every aspect of the phone, honestly, makes me feel good about myself...

[Unxpekted]

One thing I need to state is this is a Software comparison, Apple is on another level hardware wise, and it's usually the reason I go for it.

[MattHolbrook]

Jeff you don't have to hold to remove an app from recents. Just swipe it away. Same as notifications.

[mims]

I'm happy to see Jeff use an android product because I feel like he is not bias against android like every other iPhone user.

[IPvpAfroI]

On recently used apps u can just swipe left or right to "Kill" one of apps dont need to press and tap "remove from list"

[Snix]

User friendly Hehehe, Back button can be anywhere in the app, On android thers just a button, when downloading app from appstore you cant see what permissions is going to use, Safari link spoofing Etc.

Jeff you are the one who made me love apple.. to hear something like that coming form you that is really change things up.

I don't know about this video, but again it has been a year since I used a Droid and we went through 3 different versions. The Droid was okay, but I find myself using my iPhone and enjoying the experience. A lot was said about battery drainage, in fact of all the apps I remember using on the Droid was exactly that. I am glad to be rid of it, because I spent so much time managing apps and battery usage, that's all I did. The only problem I have with my iPhone is deciding which apps to delete.

I bought the iPad 2 only because of iOS and its UI speed. Of course apps and hardware is also very great at apple but that was not my main reason to choose the iPad.

And btw great idea to change roles for another video! Would love to see this :)

[ArthurB]

Thank you very much! I was unsure to buy it or not, but now you helped me alot! Thank you! You are my favourite youtuber!

[thlawmakr]

i think that its good that even an ios fan like yourself jeff does this kind of video showing just a few of the benefits of the android operating system

[TravelDude]

Great video Jeff. Its great to see you doing videos on more the competitors. Healthy competition is good for consumers. Lets hope the Windows Phone 8 can bring another good competitor to the table.

[comedypros]

im glad jeff is giving a good impression on android. I myself am an apple devote but i accept that google and other companies have created better features of there devices than what is given on the iPhone.

[ZeyadAlMadani]

Hello, this is Jack!
Dictation works REALLY well! XD

[eurosonly]

the thing about multi tasking...already done on cydia....i can see all of the apps i have recently opened in big square icons and scroll up and down through them

[frederickirv]

Gd video but one thing I think both iOS and droid missing is a Time Stamp on the apps - in Other wards there should be and area or a menu showing date and time a particular app was installed or downloaded.
