I'm a web developer, but work with people that do mobile apps, and I'm well aware of the differences between both OSes. But as an end user, I couldn't care less. I have used both iOS and Android devices, and currently only own Android ones.
I don't consider myself a power user, but the apps I enjoy in Android are miles ahead of their iOS counterparts; yes, I get many of them via alternative stores or github repos, so I'm definitely not a regular user (I work with linux, so maybe I'm THAT kind of guy lol). I can tolerate some annoyances in exchange of the freedom I get and the vast amount of apps, but I don't expect regular user to do the same.
Also, I absolutely see the appeal of iOS devices for most people, they're snappy and have no surprises. My wife and children love them.
