Hi all! New to this forum as I needed some good, comprehensive advice as to this decision!
So I bought a Nexus 4 last year (I had a Windows HTC Mozart previously so fell in love with the google phone immediately!). I used to be quite anti-Apple, but I got a Macbook Air as a birthday present in September, which, after 1 crappy/clunky/infuriatingly slow netbook then a temporary second-hand laptop with similar frustrations is what I would consider my first proper laptop and I was very quickly and easily converted.
Now my dad has a spare iPhone 5 since upgrading that he will either sell or give to me (since I now have an Apple computer, he thought they would go better together - reckon this makes a big difference?)
So: price is a nonissue here, as I already have both devices available to me.
I would love to hear from unbiased posters here about their own experiences, and preferably those who have experienced both and have come to a specific preference one way or the other (and why!)
The new Handoff feature with iOS 8 and Yosemite looks very very cool and could come in really handy but of course there are lots of other things to consider like battery life etc. and the potential of Android L (as I haven't experienced it yet).
Things like screen size aren't dreadfully important to me, as long as I can read articles and browse websites, or watch the odd youtube video, I'm happy. I prefer the feel of the iphone in my hand (as I do have small hands and the Nexus 4 is huge, especially with a case) but again, there are many other things to consider.
You can probably tell I'm a bit lost so any well-thought guidance would be greatly appreciated.
