System.exit() kills your entire process. activity.finish() just hides, stops and destroys your activity. Your process is still running.
You should not call System.exit(). It could mess up Android's handling of the lifecycles of your activities and result in an awkward user- experience (e.g. when killing the process, the previous activity from which you laucnhed your activity may be gone as well. Android may try to restart the process again and re-create that accidentally killed parent-activity... but still).
