Androids come in many different shapes and sizes and you are sure to find one that will fit your needs the best. Be it a high-end phone with all the features you can dream of or a portable theater that can view movies in crystal clear quality, or maybe even a low budget phone if you're tight on cash, android has it all. Android phones are much more customizable than iPhones and are recommended for people who are more tech-savvy. iPhones require you to hack and jailbreak it to at best, accomplish half the things Android can do right out of the box.
The downside to Android phones is that due to the sheer amount of different phones out there, the system is not as optimized as iPhones are. iPhones tend to have higher processing power and run more smoothly than Androids, and while Androids have more free apps on its app store, they're simply not as good as the paid apps in Apples app store.
Below I will list a variety of tables of the current best Android phones ranging from high-end to low budget and their respective specifications.
