Display
Apple - The Iphone 4S's screen size is only 3.5 inches, but it's LCD screen is actually a higher resolution than many of the Androids. The display is therefore crisper and brighter than the majority of Android phones.
Score 8.5/10
Android - Android may not have a plethora of phones with crisper and brighter screens than the Iphone 4s, but the majority of Android phones have much larger screens, better contrast, and amazingly vibrant color. This makes playing games, watching movies, and even watching the animated widgets look that much better. In addition to this, there are phones such as a Samsung Galaxy Nexus with HD display (1280 x 720 pixels)
Score 8.5/10
Keyboard
Apple - Anyone who has used an Iphone or Ipod touch keyboard knows how truly amazing it is. Even though it has a very small screen, once the keyboard get's used to the common phrases you say, it learns.For example: If you often type the phrase: "Hey what's up" the Iphone will start to type that anytime your fingers move into the direction of the "h" "e" "y" and so fourth. Often times, my fingers aren't even in the close proximity of the letters and the iPhone still types it based on tendency. In addition to this, although there are some words it might auto-correct, if you change the auto-corrected word to the actually word you want, it learns fairly quickly. Basically, the more you use the keyboard, the more amazing it becomes.
Score 9.5/10
