Blade, Batman Arkham, Soul
Caliber, Metal Gear Solid Touch,
Rage, Street Fighter IV, Final
Fantasy series, Call of Duty:
Zombie series, Battlefield series, Civilization Revolution, Resident Evil series, Risk, Chaos Rings, NBA
Jam, Scribblenauts Remix,
LostWinds, Trenches, Rayman 2,
NBA 2K12, and many many more.
Also all the sequels to popular
casual games are already out on iOS like Homerun Battle, Cut the
Rope, Doodle Jump, Fruit Ninja,
The Sim 3, Zombieville, Robot
Unicorn, Pocket God, Paper Toss,
Age of Zombies ect... Most of
Android games are just ports of iOS, even those Tegra games. iOS
developers make 3 times more
money than Android developers.
They might as well make apps
for iOS first then port to Android
later. Just look at any pirate iOS site, you'll be surprised that
there are so many games
Android doesn't have. It seems
like they still have like 250,000
iOS games that need to port to
Android. Games on Android are usually made to be able to run
on as many phones as they can,
so even with phones that have
high end GPUs, they still look the
same like on phones with weak
GPUs. Another con on Android is the high numbers of force closes
and crashes of apps. Just look at
the comments in the Android
Market and you will see, but I
don't have to do that because I
have experienced them. How many Android phones have the
latest Android software? 1 out
of 500 different phones. Then in
other news this week, malwares
may have infected 5 million
Android users.

There is no virus on android, every process is controled, no hidden process, it cant use up the resource secretly like on window. Important infos like contacts and emails are stored in system file, which is protected, not on sdcard, it s you who allow which app can read what system file when you install it. Apple just want to sqeeze the last penny from users. Their advantage as smooth UI has gone since quadcore cpu and android 4.1. Its a pity that they still have more third party apps, but is to have more third party app the greatest innovation?

I don't understand one thing. The population of US is 4% of the world's population. Still, almost every analysis given on this site is for US. Does it reflect the picture?????

Samsung and Android are leading the World...... Not Apple!
If they are losing market share, why combine these two operating system and smartphone makers in one? That's just an attempt to make Apple look good while riding Android and Samsung's coat tails. It's just so freaking obvious that Apple now has to resort to going back to it's old anticompetitive fight with Microsoft to deal with competition growing faster than they are!
What's crazy is that Media actually supports this attempt to misinform the public about what's happening. With Android now boasting over half the US smartphone market and 70% of Global smartphone market, that naturally puts Apple still sitting at under 18% with iOS. When a company reports two quarters of no or lost market share they are said to be stagnating. Like Microsoft did in the early 2000's after the boom years of the late 90's! Nielsen needs to get it's priorities straight and not be led into trusting that Apple's sales are different than it's ballooning market cap says it'll be!

IOS is Simplicity? Yea right, doing simple tasks in Android is WAY more Easier than IOS. Its either IOS Dont have the Feature or its some long way just to get it the task done. And this is coming from experience using both Android an IOS.

The iPhone 4 needed a condom to actually be useful, or you had to do some hand-yoga to circumvent the Deathgrip. And before going into the 'but zey fixxxed it' mode, one can always find some issues with a product, any product, including Apple products.
To get more news related, it really doesn't bide well for Microsoft to be in the 'the rest' category, which actually is even losing ground, how little it had to begin with. A marketshare of sub 5% for an OS that was chimed to be the second coming, it's laughable.
