In my experience, Android is truly interesting for experimenting at this point, and with some work and trying and failing many things can be done. I have tried both Talkback and Mobile Accessibility and, to be honest, none of the two provide anything close to the experience you will get on an iPhone. If you need a fully functional phone and you need to accomplish things quickly and efficiently, I would say Android is not ready yet. If you want to try something new and you are willing to give up on some usability and convenience, try getting an Android phone and see how it goes. If you are planning on using Mobile Accessibility I would recommend that you get a touch screen phone.
