As Google Android based phones are everywhere in the news and commercials, many of you are thinking of making the switch this holiday season. This is the right time to make the switch as the Android OS has improved a lot from its initial release and now offers new features along with some 12000 apps in the Android Market.

Motorola Droid and HTC Eris from Verizon is currently the two most popular and sought after Android phones in the market. Despite all the hype about Motorola Droid, the HTC Eris comes out as better Android phone with simple to use Sense User Interface.

The top 5 reasons to choose HTC Eris over Motorola Droid are:

1) User Interface: HTC Eris Sense users interface brings life to the dull Android default UI. Instead of three home screens, you now get seven, all of which you can customize with various shortcuts and widgets. HTC makes the phone even more customizable by adding a feature called Scenes. This lets you change the theme of the phone depending on whether you’re at work, at play, or traveling. Each scene also provides seven customizable panels so there are plenty of ways to make the phone personal to your lifestyle.

2) Multitouch Support: The Droid Eris offers full multitouch support in the Web browser and photo gallery. That means that you can zoom by pinching your fingers and by double-tapping the screen.

3) Browser: Though most videos remained jerky and the audio wasn’t always in sync, the Droid Eris’s browser has Flash Lite support.

4) Video Editing: You get four image resolution sizes, four white-balance settings, a brightness meter, spot metering, a digital zoom, a self-timer, autofocus, a flicker adjustment, four ISO settings, three color effects, and more.

5) Price: Available for $99 this is the cheapest Android Phone in the market.
