Good evening,  

If I may ask,  What prompted you too choose the  Android  phone, rather then the Iphone?  I'm asking, because I'm trying to decide from those who use android phones, what the differences are between those two systems.

You can find information to help you get started with android and talkback from the following sources:

1. Google's official help for Android accessibility:

https://support.google.com/accessibility/android/answer/6006564?hl=en

2. The Inclusive Android site, which posts app reviews and walkthroughs. 
Though material seems to be old, it's still relevant as 90% of what is posted still works now:

3. My book on National Braille Press, which is for getting start with
Android:

http://www.nbp.org/ic/nbp/ANDROID.html

4. My reference volume on National Braille Press, which is mostly commands with very brief explanations:

http://www.nbp.org/ic/nbp/AND-COMMAND.html

5. There are also a couple of discussion lists.


* Eyes-Free on Google Groups, which is very high-traffic:
https://groups.google.com/forum/?nomobile=true#!forum/eyes-free

* VI-Android on Freelists. I'm not on this list, so I don't have any direct experience with it and may be confusing it for a different list. 
Anyway, my understanding is that it's relatively low-traffic and on-topic:
