These sorts of articles are getting really old and redundant. Both mobile OS's have their benefits. Larger than 4" screen = the best experience? No... not for many people who find it harder to hold larger devices. NFC? It's not THAT well supported yet around the States. Custom widgets on home screen? Huge battery drain. Third party software keyboards? iPhone doesn't need it because if you've ever used an Android keyboard, you know it sucks ass (this is the opinion of many of my Android friends). Visible file system? The majority of users want a simplified experience on their phone. Pen support? Any capacitive object can work on the iOS.
Point is, the same points can be argued on both sides. If you like Android because it's customizable, then go for it. It has more options, but wont last as long since you can buy a brand new Android phone and 9months later the newest OS wont work on it.
