Except as has been said, it's not like that.
The Note 2 is neither cheap nor glitchy, nor are the other flagships. If you're comparing the iPhone 5 to the cheapest of the low end Android phones then sure, but what kind of honest comparison is that?
iPhone: expensive, restricted
Android: cheap, glitchy
Well first off he needs root it. Then he needs to look up the latest stable CM ROM. Then you gotta try this one app that can stream music. If that doesnt work then there is this other app that might work. But make sure you type in the name exactly right or you might get a malware infested fake version that wont work at all. After a couple hours of trial and error, he might be able to get it to work. Then it will break for no reason about two months down the line.
Rinse, wash, repeat.

It doesn't mean that 99% of Android phones aren't terribly inefficient and somewhat unstable right out of the box.
A generic one. Because that's all that can really be made. You realize I hate Apple, prefer Android, and experience no glitches on my cheapass phone, right?
It doesn't mean that 99% of Android phones aren't terribly inefficient and somewhat unstable right out of the box. Much like a Windows PC, which I also strongly prefer to a Mac.
Fanboys who don't know that they're fanboys are the worst type.
Link? I assume you have some kind of proof to back up what you're saying?
Fact: You can get an iPhone for free or up to ~$200 on contract. You can get an Android phone free or up to ~$200 on contract.
id say your views are quite antiquated.
ICS and JB provide all of those features built in ( at least on samsung)
and i have never once heard of anyone getting malware off the market.
not once.. sure they pull a pirated free version from elsewhere that is possible.
and as for breaking? quit using the ghetto phones and get a super high end android with JB.
So, basically, your argument is not only that Android has no weaknesses, but that everyone elses' arguments for its strengths are wrong?
Obviously, your biggest concern is being able to tell your friends that your Android phone costed you just as much as their iPhone. Aren't you a real winner...

Uh...?
I am talking about you trying to pass off Android as "cheap, glitchy" and iPhones as "expensive, restricted" as if that's some kind of fact, when it's not. Simple as that. You then said 99% are glitchy, so I'm asking for proof.
And here you are saying things that fandroids have said since the dawn of the operating system.
'Things are better now! I swear! Froyo/Gingerbread/Honeycomb/ICS/Jellybean has fixed those problems!'
'Nobody I know has had that problem. Must be your fault'
'Did I say its your fault yet? Oh I did? Well let me say it again, anything wrong with an android phone is your fault'
'You need to buy a better phone. Get this one instead'. As if thats a valid response for issues with a phone!
Uh...?

You do realise people say exactly the same thing about iphones?
Things are so much smoother now, the iphone4 was so slow.
Nobody I know has that problem, you're doing it the wrong way.
You're holding it wrong.
You need to get the iphone4/4s/5 its so much better.
What are you talking about? They've overhauled it immensely.

Wow! A post from you with content?! OMG this is a big step! Good work!
-Yes, people say the iPhone 4 is slow now. Nobody ever claimed the iPhone 4 was slow when it came out. I could get my gtab to stutter right out of the box. Same with my Droid X. Same with the S3 at the store. Android has a slow/stuttering issue or else there would have never been a 'project butter'.
- Doing what the wrong way? Please elaborate...
- This is about as relevant as me bringing up the fact that the droid incredible has a 4 hour battery life
-A lot of people are still perfectly happy with the iPhone 4S. There are lots of people that would trade in their brand new S3 for a year and a half old iPhone. and they would add CASH on top of it! Seriously, I got 5 responses on craigslist asking for a trade, I was floored. Apple phones age like wine. Android phones age like milk. Android phones are worth absolutely nothing in the reseller market (S3's going for ~$300 on craigslist already) and they are unusable after a couple years. I could probably go back to an iPhone 4. It would be painful, but at least it would last an entire day and wouldn't be too slow. There is no way in hell I would ever use a droid X right now. You couldn't pay me to use that phone again.
Lol, you really are on a crusade aren't you?
What exactly is your point? That iphones are superior for everyone and that everyone should use them?
Ok you don't like Android. That fine. Don't use it then. I don't particularly like ios that's why I don't use it.
Difference is that I don't bang on about all the things that iphones are crap at like you do about android.
You forgot, "We finally have multi tasking now!!!"
"Oh nice, we finally have navigation!!!"
"Oh sweet, we can finally sync without connecting to our computer!!!"
"My iPhone finally has a screen size that was top of the line three years ago!!!"
No the difference is you have never used iOS as your main device yet you rail on it all the time. Its a common theme among the fandroids and you are one of thousands of them.
yet android still cant do simple things like create a full backup of your phone (texts, apps, everything) and store it in the cloud.

LOL @ 'the cloud.'
It's called 'the internet.' Or more specifically, 'servers.' You don't help your case with marketing buzzwords.
And it's odd that you say that, since I have backups of everything on my PC (does not require rooting). I could easily upload them to 'cloud storage' if I wanted to.
You're failing to realize that 'pay a premium for out of box automation of' is not the same as 'does something that Android can't'.
Once again: Two totally different approaches for two totally different mindsets here. Needing to assert the superiority of your phone does nothing but imply the inferiority of your mind.
