Here are the facts from my experience, I am not biased to any phone this is just what I found:
Cons:
*The Galaxy SII is bigger than the iPhone4 (Regardless what the fanboys say its harder to hold up to your ear and while texting)
*The Galaxy had WORSE reception on average than the iPhone (Vodaphone network)
*The Android Network has far less applications
*You will need to go back to Tafe and get a Degree in IT to operate it... Im 23yo, I game online, have built Pc's and still had trouble
*It only alerts you once that you have received a text (and quietly) I often didn't realize i had a txt till hours later.
*The whole contact database, setup, adding numbers etc is a mid****...
*Battery life is poor
*Using it as a mobile hotspot i had worse coverage than the iPhone
Pro's:
*The Galaxy runs smoother than the iPhone
*The camera is better
*You can drag and drop files without using iTunes
*The Gps is amazingly good
*obviously more powerfull with the Dual core
I was so disappointed in the Galaxy that i swapped it for a 16gig iPhone4 and couldn't be happier
AT the end of the day IMO they both do much the same job, but the iPhone is 100x easier to use day to day and it doesnt lack anything you will actually use
There are too many fanboys around here to get a straight answer, it is personal preference but, I had a galaxy SII for a month and hated it.... I dont like Apple, The iPhone worked better for me
