I have no trouble finding things wrong with Android. It's a buggy, ill-optimized system that still suffers from lag, malware, inconsistency and fragmentation. I was a hardcore android user from the g1 and still own a nexus 4 (had an HTC One a few weeks ago, got rid of it though it was likely the smoothest behind the nexus 4. I just don't like HTC build quality) and I'll always give every OS a fair chance but until I feel I can rely on an android phone and until the user experience is at least okay, I stand by my position. I was sorely disappointed when both of my top-end android phones couldn't play some of the games I wanted.
Whatever personal problems you have with android get over it. Its an operating system made for everyone. Any normal person who uses it does not have the problems you have because they don't care. No matter the problems toy say android may have there are literally millions of others who don't have a problem with it. They would still prefer android over windows phone because if its large ecosystem and the fact that android has every app you can want on the platform. That's all that matters to the normal consumer, not malware, not inconsistency, not lag. Its the damn apps like it has always been from the beginning. That why android is so large and in charge. Until windows phone has the major apps like android, the people will continue to ignore windows phone or even blackberry.
