iPhone 5, haven't really seen a reason to change.

I was thinking it was going to be closer to 50/50 between the two phones. It looks like the iPhone is still dominating the market... Thank you all for the replies.

I had an HTC Evo fwiw.

Exactly. I had the droid x, it was fast the first day then it went down hill. I hated android after that. Still a beta OS IMHO.

The 4" screen is perfect btw on the iphone 5, enjoy the massive uncomfortable bulge in your pocket (and im not talking about that bulge), the iphone disappears in a pocket yet has a screen good enough to do anything on without being cramped. The metal and glass phone has a nice feel to it too, unlike a big chunk of plastic that is practically every droid (especially every Samsung phone ever made). Im not a fan boy by any means, but the 5 has finally nailed it.

I'm just not an Apple guy, nothing against them at all. I like the compatibility of android with windows and I like the removable memory. I am running a small business on the side and my RAZR maxx HD is like a mini lap top. I don't keep it in my pocket, it is way too big for that. I wear it on the hip and take the hit on my appearance. Android 4.1 is very nice as well. One thing I don't understand are these new "phablets" I mean these things are huuuuuge. I love watching people walking around with tablets to their ears.
