I jumped off the Apple wagon from the Ip5 to the Galaxy S4 for a bigger screen, etc. I made a lot of changes to get it to perform like my Ip5. Make no mistake, it's a great phone, but I am getting the Ip5S. I analyzed my usage patterns: I do virtually all my surfing on my retina MBP. I don't game on my portable device or watch videos. So the only thing I really use it for is bluetooth music for my car, email and calls. I'm coming back to a familiar system( had a Ip4 also ). Not a bad thing.

Not to second guess your decision but doesn't the S4 do that as well?

I think there's a lot of compelling reasons to stay (or go on) the iOS platform, but your listed needs really do not touch upon the advantages iOS has over Android.

Its your money, your decision, but it just seems odd that you mention blutooth connectivity, email and phone calls as the major reason to come back

Easier to download from Itunes to an IOS device than android. I do it now wirelessly with Doubletwist, and Air Sync on my S4, but maybe I just like new toys!!
