Is android falling apart?

[ahpitre]

Android is great but its core is more complex. Having all the options to customize (like no other Phone OS) comes with a price : security and stability, plus, battery life. Android makers are now moving to Quad-core CPUs, to get the same performance WP8/IOS delivers with 2 Cores. Battery life is still an issue, and won't change a lot precisely because all of the OS core features (it's strength compare to others), is also it's greatest weakness (consumes more battery power).

Tell that to the Razr Maxx lol it is true though. Battery life on androids seem to be less than stellar, whereas an iPhone 5 with 1500 mah battery can go for a whole day or more.

The Razr Maxx is still consuming more juice, just from a larger jug. 3100mah right? My Ativ S would probably do 3 days of heavy usage with a cell that size... (resting unplugged at night)
