> Android is getting to the point where most users will not really notice a difference between Android and IOS, even on a very inexpensive device.
Having had experience recently with top-end Android devices, I'd beg to differ. Functionally an Android device is roughly equivalent to an iOS one, but the design, UI, responsiveness etc. is IMO miles apart.
It may be a matter of subjective taste but I would recommend that anyone reading the above and considering switching spent some serious time using Android first.
