I've had n4/n5 and all the iPhones since 3GS. Disagree that iOS is behind overall. It's behind in features yes, but usability I still like iOS more.

Droid: -more os features -more customizability -like the notification centre much better -most apps that aren't in the top echelon of apps, are gross to use and look at. -hate multitasking multi-processes running in background

iOS: -buttery smooth like no other -touch input is much more accurate, somehow it knows -top echelon of apps, are better on iOS than droid

Gave droid a fair shot. To me, important things to get right on mobile is lag-free daily usage, and accurate touch input. Apple nailed both of these. And apps are usually better done on iOS than droid from my experience. For writing apps I prefer Xcode/Cocoa ecosystem over Java/Eclipse.

Generally I think Apple hardware+software is best in industry. And Google makes the best software services (Gmail, drive, play music, youtube, Maps, etc.).
