Getting in and around Japan : JR pass or Suica or Pasmo etc?

Hi all,

​

I am going to Japan for the first time for over 2 weeks with my friend. We are landing at Haneda Airport, Tokyo and then spending 5 days there, then 4 days in Kyoto, 3 days in Osaka and then 4 days back in Tokyo where we will then fly back. We will be doing day trips i.e Nara from Kyoto and Mt. Fuji from Tokyo (guided bus tour). Main mode of transport will be trains.

I am confused about the JR pass and Suica card and pasmo. Which one do we get and which one is more cost effective? From what I’ve read, Suica is an add-on in apple wallet however what about android users? Please advise on the best course of action 🙂
