Longer support period. Easier to tell if you're getting a "good" phone since there's only a few models.

I use Android phones, but that last points almost dragged me in a few times after getting disappointing phones.

Edit: you asked why _you_ should get an iPhone, not why teens should.

That's true. The Android marketplace is full of a _lot_ of bad products. The good ones get most of the attention, thankfully, but its easy to walk into a phone store and walk out with a shiny piece of pain.

Even the worst iphone will be better than that.
