Let's do an objective comparison:

Gmail has 6.8 GB and counting (as well, it grows by about 1 megabyte per day), Inbox.com has 5
Gmail has no premium service (basically, what you get is already the best), Inbox.com has one (and it costs $29.88/year!) (In this case, no premium is actually better than premium.)
Both have POP3 and SMTP (no competition there)
Both have overtop and underlying services (Photos, Organizer, Calendar, websites, etc.), but Google has more (Desktop search, web accelerator, PageRank system, search engine)
Gmail has smaller system requirements; as well, you can have multiple emails

Conclusion: To get GMail, there are no payoffs. It's better, hands down.

Yikes, I just found the full features list.

GMail's maximum attachment size is 20 MB, so is Inbox.com's
Both have email notifiers
Both have mail search functionality
Both have folder management (GMail uses a tag system; also, its clients have folder management, so this is a trivial feature)
Inbox.com doesn't provide ads... (well, neither does Gmail, they only scan search results)
Both have spam and virus scanners
Both have message conversation ability

Still no visible payoffs. Get GMail.

I love gmail. so easy. chat is at par with AIM. iGoogle is awesome. Very little spam. inbox.com might have 5gb of space but gmails space is growing so in a few years they will have tons more space than inbox.com, who will still be offering 5 gigs.

gmail+inbox.com= OMG GMAIL JUST PWNED INBOX.COM I DIDNT NOT BELEIVE ANY EMAIL COULD GET PWNED LIKE THAT, BUT INBOX JUST DID. POOR INBOX.
