iPhone vs Android: Which Smartphone Should You Buy?

The world is expected to buy over 1 billion smartphones in 2014.
Considering that the first real smartphone - the original iPhone - was launched just six years ago, this figure is all that more remarkable.
For consumers things have never been better. Increased competition and the entry into the UK market of budget smartphone makers like Huawei and ZTE have driven prices down, while quality and choice has increased.
The problem now is choosing the right Cheap Android Phones for you.
While there are other options out there (notably Windows Phone and BlackBerry) most people will end up chosing between Apple's iPhones or one of hundreds of Android-based smartphones from manufacturers like Samsung, HTC, LG, Sony and many more.
Which is best for you? Here we look at the differences each platform offers to see which suits your needs the best:
Apple offers three iPhone options at the moment - the iPhone 4s, the iPhone 5s and the iPhone 5c (right). All are relatively similar with the iPhone 4s the oldest and smallest of the three. The iPhone 5s is the flagship model with features like its fingerprint scanner and faster processor offering the best performance of any of Apple's phones.
For the fashion conscious, the slightly cheaper iPhone 5c is available in a range of vibrant colours and a unashamedly plastic finish.
But that's it from Apple.
Android is a completely different proposition. There are hundreds - if not thousands - of smartphones available running Google's Android operating system. In the UK we only see a fraction of these, but you still have huge variety available from premium smartphones like the HTC One and Samsung Galaxy S4, to the budget smartphones like the Moto G.
In terms of design most Android smartphones look very much alike (thin, rectangular and black) and at similar prices offer similar features (screen resolution, processor power, storage).
In terms of unique features, Samsung phones integrate eye control and hand gestures; HTC's One smartphone has excellent front-facing speakers; Motorola's Moto X can be controlled using just your voice and LG's G Flex has a curved screen.

iPhone or Android: Which Cheap Android Phone Should You Buy?
The world is expected to buy over 1 billion smartphones in 2014.

In terms of unique features, Samsung phones integrate eye control and hand gestures; HTC's One smartphone has excellent front-facing speakers; Motorola's Moto X can be controlled using just your voice and LG's G Flex has a curved screen.
iPhone or Android: Size
As the smartphone market has matured, Cheap Android Phones have become bigger and bigger, to the point where manufacturers are now blurring the lines between smartphone and tablet.
While most of the premium Android smartphones have screens of between 4.7in and 5in, the rise of the phablet (a horrible conflation of the words phone and tablet) has seen devices like the Galaxy Note, Sony Xperia Z Ultra and HTC One Max push screen sizes up to over 6in.
Despite the increase in screen size however, manufacturers have been able to keep the weight and thickness of the phones down, with almost all major smartphones now less than 10mm thick and most noticeably less than than.
While Apple may have led the smartphone charge, in the last 12 months its iPhones have looked decidedly small in comparison to the Android smartphones out there.
At 4in (or 3.5in for the iPhone 4s) Apple's iPhones are compact but for those looking to watch video or play games on their smartphone, this could be seen as too small.

CES 2014: Lenovo ThinkPad and ThinkVision Products

The professional line of products from Lenovo includes: a 28-inch 4K display, another 28-inch 4K display which moonlights as an Android tablet, a proper tablet powered by Bay Trail, and a laptop which might crack a smile from fans of the Optimus keyboard. If any of these devices gets your attention then you might be glad to know that each of them is under $1300 base price.
First up is the ThinkVision Pro2840m 4K Display which is a professional-grade 28-inch 3840x2160 monitor for $799. The image gets me excited for the thin bezel although a separate press deck (seen below) shows a visibly different monitor, with the same model number, having a more-standard border. Cross your fingers and hope that it looks more like the above image than the one below. I find it doubtful, however, but I digress either way.
Lenovo does not mention the panel type but they advertise a 5ms response time and a 1000:1 contrast ratio. It has a 10bit color depth and a 72% color gamut which I am hoping refers to Adobe RGB which puts it roughly on par with my Wacom Cintiq 22HD. It could be 72% sRGB coverage, though, which would be problematic (especially for a professional panel).
Note that contrast ratio claims are messed with constantly. Most of these million-to-one claims are measured at separate times and often in separate environments. There have been tales of "black measurements" being taken in laboratory-controlled dark rooms with the panels off and white values recorded directly against the backlight. Static contrast ratios, measured with a black and white checkerboard pattern, are often not too far away from 1000:1. Plasma and OLED panels can get significantly better, however.
Up next is the ThinkVision 28 Smart 4K Display. While it is also a 28-inch 3840x2160 monitor, it also has an integrated NVIDIA Tegra processor. This is basically a 28-inch Android 4.4 (KitKat) tablet, which can also be your computer monitor, for $1199.
Lenovo carefully wrote Latest Nvidia Tegra processor and ThinkVision 28 is expected to launch in July. This would be a year after the Tegra 4 launch and right around the rumored launch window of Logan (Q2 2014). This could be a launch-window release for the next Tegra. If so, this would be Android powered by Kepler.
On the topic of tablets: the ThinkPad 8. Lenovo's idea of an 8.3-inch 1080p business tablet is one powered by Bay Trail for x86 support backed by up to 8 GB of RAM. Because it support x86, it is preloaded with Windows 8.1 and Microsoft Office. You can choose between 32, 64, and 128 GB of SSD storage and then later insert a MicroSD card for more storage. Prices are expected to start at $399. see more Lenovo tablets.
Lastly: The ThinkPad X1 Carbon. This 14-inch Ultrabook has voice and gesture control along with a programmable touch strip. The touch strip is quite interesting: it is a long, narrow, and apparently flexible LCD touchscreen. As programs open and close, its hotkeys will change accordingly. They do not say whether the user can control these or whether they are using baked profiles but, regardless, it is an interesting step.
