In the midst of choosing a new phone for 2 years I would like to hear opinions on Android OS

Not surprisingly I have narrowed down my choices to

Samsung TouchWiz and HTC Sense

For people who have used any of these interfaces, anecdotes would be welcomed. Android crashes I heard are a problem but I'm getting a top of the line android device, crashes and lags won't be a problem.
(Samsung Galaxy S2 or HTC ones series)

More interested in the aesthetics and the fluidity of each interface.

Even if you have no interest in Android OS which Android Overlay do you prefer?Why?

Neither? Both are pretty awful compared to stock Android. Why these forums wouldn't android forums be a better place to ask this?
 
Oh for heaven's sake, mod's, can we not have a dedicated subforum for talking about non iOS systems?

@OP: Please understand that this is an iPhone forum.
 
Why would there be a problem with people asking about other phones? Yes, there are other forums, but this is one of the most knowledgable and macro-spectrumed. May be a new non-iPhone area could be created for these type of questions?
 
Why are asking for preferences about an Android on an iPhone forum?

I think you made a wrong turn.
 
Touchwhiz and Sense are fine, you don't have to be stuck with either though, you can install a different launcher from the market to have ton's of theme's, custom icons (w/o even applying the theme), other customizations etc w/o rooting and rom'ing

I don't know why there isn't an sub forum for other phones, almost any other forum has that. I.E. Vette boards have subs for "other cars", Ford samething etc, even my business boards have sub boards. It's been asked plenty of times on here so no idea why the admins or whoever is running is not adding one, not hard to do lol.
