About Android

When Google joined the cellular phone market, they created Android, their first smartphone operating system. Based on Linux, the Android OS promises power, flexibility, and extendability.HTC was the first to introduce a device that will run the Android OS, the G1. Android is not only an OS but a software platform. This gives all cellular manufacturers the ability to build new device that can use Android.

The Android platform is completely open-source, allowing any developer to tap into its full power and create some pretty cool apps. Check out some of the winners of the Android Developer Challenge.

"It's day 25 of the 30 day Galaxy S 4 Challenge. What do you think of the newest member of the Galaxy?"

Vito Cafarelli If the phone has lag than he must say it has lag.. doing tricks to decrease the lag shouldn't have to be done when buying a new phone. You can't say.. oh just root it and the lag will go away or read this article that shows you how to decrease lag.. thats for different discussion and shouldn't be used when reviwing a phone.

Anthony Bailey Me as well. The S4 and the One do nothing to peak my interest. I'm fine until the Note III comes along.

Anthony Bailey So you're just a "Me too!" person?? :P

Vito Cafarelli I agree with aron. The beautiful 5 inch colorful screen with dazzling effects wins my heart as well as the better day time camera and having a splitscreen and pop up video feature is a must..even tho its made with plastic its also the only phone that has expandable memory as well as replacable or extended battery options of your liking which is very awesome...and let's not forget that its actually expensive plastic and the display is made from the new Gorilla Glass 3 compared to HTC 1s Gorilla Glass 2. As well as the latest version of android.. the only shitty thing about this phone is that little tiny speaker that gets muffled if you place the phone on its back. If the note 3 doesn't fix the speaker issue than i'm not getting it cuz frankly having a tiny little speaker on the button back where your hand covers it is really stupid..at least put the speaker on the top back where your hand doesn't cover it or at the sides like the iphone

Jaime Espinoza Aaron it would not hurt you to do a little research before bitching about lag. http://forums.androidcentral.com/samsung-galaxy-s4/274145-galaxy-s4-performance-issues-release-software.html..
