how long exactly is long when you say "long time user". with how things are going in phone tech these days kasi most users replace their phones in 2 years; maybe you can stretch it to 3+ years if you don't mind being seen with a phone 3 to 4 generations old.

keep in mind though that the galaxy S4 will be announced in March and the iPhone 5S before mid year(maybe).

the other guys have also failed to mention that whichever phone you buy means you'll also be buying into that OS's ecosystem. some people like Apple's apps more, a lot less freeware stuff but the apps a bit more polished. whereas Android's app store, there are more freeware (with advertising) but the apps doesn't look as good - a throwback from pre-ICS (android 4) before Android started having a unified user interface - but they are slowly catching up in terms of aesthetics.
What are widgets? I don't customize my phone. I don't even have a wallpaper for my Nokia. I just use the default theme. But I do like phone accessories for my phone Casing and phone charm etc.

Replaceable battery is a must for me. I don't want a phone that I will throw out once the battery fails. I want a phone that will last me at least 5 years Because I really hate having to switch gadgets. I normally use gadgets until it dies on me. hehe. My friend uses a first gen iphone though which made me believe that iphones are indeed very sturdy.

Hating hati talaga choice between Iphone and Galaxy. Even among my friends
