As far as the GPS goes, it works fine. The Google Navigation app is far superior to anything on the iPhailure as far as I’m concerned. Maybe you got lucky but many people have problems with phones rebooting or needing reboot/software reinstalls. I have a droid that is bricked right now, it wont charge the battery and if i ghetto rig power it, it still wont let me reinstall new software. And before you jump to conclussions i never rooted this phone or tried to. There are many things i like about the droid but the OS itself doesn’t run near as smooth as the iOS. Even just trying to slide to the next home screen sometimes it just sits there. I constantly have to shut programs down. On the plus side I love google, and the free market they try to produce. I hate apple and att/verizon controls on the app markets. This alone is almost enough to keep me from buying an iphone. Almost… Also anyone arguing that the GPS sucks on the android not sure whats up, the stock software from google is a great GPS navigation system. My wife who has an iphone 4 uses my phone all the time for the gps turn by turn voice navigation…until it bricked of course. If the new iphone is 4g ill be buying one most likely. --- _[View the full topic](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/anyone-thinking-or-will-be-switching-to-iphone-5/260691)._
