True, you can jailbreak, but the vast majority of phone owners won't know that much less how to jailbreak. With iPhones Apple controls the upgrades to iOS regardless of the carrier. With Android you are pretty much at the mercy of the carrier. With iPhones Apple doesn't allow carriers to place a lot of junk apps on them. With Android the phones come loaded with junk apps from the carrier, many of which are difficult to delete w/o jailbreaking.
I guess the Nexus 4 phone is a dud, because at less than half the price of an iphone, it can't be good, and can't receive timely updates, or offer top of the line specs that would outclass the iphone 5. Oh wait...

And have you heard of the HTC One and Galaxy play editions?
