iPhone to Android

Let's get this off topic section rolling with a tech gadget discussion...

I currently have an iPhone 4 and have been looking to upgrade in the near future. Some of the Android phones have really caught my eye, especially the Galaxy S3. Has anybody made the move from iPhone to Android?

What was the learning curve? Anything you miss on the iPhone?

I have the Google Nexus 7 phone and love it.

I haven't had the iphone, but have no reason to go to it after using the Nexus.

I went from having an iPhone to the Galaxy S3. I personally wouldn't go back as I see no reason to go back.

As far as learning curve, assuming you're competent with technology, I'd say it wouldn't take you too long to get used to the Android iOS.

Last I heard the S3 was remotely hackable through NFC.

There is an easy solution to that...turn NFC off until you want to use it.
