Its surprising how this myth keeps getting propegated. An Android (specificaly the S3) out of the box is as easy to use as an iphone. There is no set up to be done anymore so than an Iphone. The phone is just as intuitive. The App store work the same way. All of the main functions like maps, email, internet browser, etc are all pre installed and work fine.
It may have been true with the early versions of Android, and maybe the customizability of android leads people to believe you have to customize it but really iOS and Android are equally easy to use. Apple again has just really strong branding in this regard. Also once people get used to using an iphone and than switch things are done slightly differently so perhaps it is because it doesn't work the same as an Iphone the first day they use it they take it back and then perpetuate the myth that it is difficult to use rather than just different to use.
