HTC Hero vs. iPhone 3G?

[Pooky]

Which is better?

 

[greg_SA]

Its not such a straight forward question to answer...

But, for me, the HTC Hero wins

 

[pope24]

For me the iPhone wins. On the whole it is a much better phone. Some of that has to do with the hardware, which is better (processors and touchscreen) but the openness of the Android platform is a big plus for the Hero.

3G or 3GS?
Suppose it depends on what you're hoping to get out of your phone.
I personally would vote for the Hero, but it really depends on what you're looking for in a phone.

I would go for the Hero mainly because it's Android, so some big company doesn't limit what apps are allowed to run on it. But then I'm an iHater

The iPhone lacks some absolute basics, hell they're only adding multitasking in an upcoming update. Only advantage is being super easy to use IMO. But then AFAIK Android isn't exactly difficult.

You know: I had a whole long spiel typed out here explaining exactly how mistaken you both are but then I thought, stuff it - live the hype guys, live the hype.

Oh... sorry - it's only Apple and his Steveness that use/generate hype right?

...riiiight.
