Hello all



I have an iphone 4s and I am less then impressed with it. Seems like everything is locked to a specific way. It is just too preppy if you know what Im saying



So my question is for you: Is a Samsung s4, nexus 4, or iphone 5s the way to go?





I have all my media on itunes, would I be able to transfer it onto an android platform after? Or would apple have locked it in with walls the size of fort knox?





Any input would be appreciated in my quest for a new phone.



Thanks

The S4 is a great phone.
Yes, you should be able to get the music files.
Android is great! They have a lot of apps and if you learn to code, you can customize it. (you could get other things pre-made to customize it, but where's the fun in that? )

I heard that the 5S crashes 30-50% more often and the blue screen of death occurs sometimes.
I wouldn't get it.

You heard? hearing dosen't make it true. so please present some factual evidence when helping some decide something. I'd Like to ask if your 4s is jailbroken? also how many gbs is your 4s. Personally, I would stick with my 4s and jailbreak it, and then wait for the 6.
Of course if you have no patience I would reccomend the 5s. This is really based on personal choice though.

Specs don't matter at all. Try them both and get the one that works better for you. With Android, you drag and drop the music files to a folder unless you use a third-party syncing application. Whichever one you decide to get, you can't make a bad decision.
