Getting rid of the headphone jack, for instance, was a major mistake. Actually android is better than iphone because you cannot even access files and android is customizable non like iphone that depends on the ios for me that sucks and you cannot even expand the storage non like android and just to access files on iphone we need a computer non like android we can just access the files directly, we all know that android is cheaper than iphone but you cannot get these futures on an iphone.
If you have to insult iPhone user that tells me who the fool really is. I am one of those 2 phone people, who separated my personal phone from my work phone because one day I will part with my company and have to turn my phone in.
There are a few things about Android phones that I love. Widgets are also much better with Android. They just work better. BUT, short of those 2 minor things, the user experience is waaaaayyyy better on iOS. The layout is better, notifications are better, apps are better, memory management is much better, it is faster, and battery life is better.
You folks who look at spec. Be happy with your Android device if you want to sit on the side of specs, but you have an inferior device. Thanks for the reply Tom! I would have to disagree that notifications are better in iOS.
Thanks Tom. Thanks for the helpful info on androids! Very useful information. This makes iPhone users jealous. And Can you please write an article about the best android phone brands? There are a number of good companies out there that make great phones that run Android. How did you come up with that thought, greedy?
Though you may disagree with their choice tey like their device it pleases them, not any different than you choosing your phone device of choices. Also, explain the scarcity of up to date applications and lack of applications. Years ago the Mac did not have all the apps Windows did, but that is now not an issue. Here is a thought, it is the app manufacture that determines if they will write the app not the phone vender.
Be aware that many software vendors are putting their apps online being used in a browser, vendors such as Adobe, Microsoft, Apple, the list goes on, thus their apps are browser based not OS based.
Also, calling folks a fool does not have you come across too good. By the way it is spelled iPhone, and check your grammar. Once you stop having that amount of free memory available, performance starts suffering. Just look at the Note 7 being destroyed by real life speed tests with a phone that was put out by Apple almost a year prior. I like both phones very much, however my iPhone always performs better, gets updated faster, resells for a lot more money when I decide to sell it, etc.
I think they both perform very well. It is unfortunate that Android updates take so long to push out because of the carriers. Thanks for your input! If something is good, then use it. Incorporate it, make it worth the while. Blatant plagiarism is one thing, but features? Plethora of physical designs, boot up, etc. So where you begin with your disclaimer… It sorta loses a lot of merit when you say things like that.
The hardware comparison seemed a bit odd to. Can you do some research into that? I disagree with your software comment. You can throw hundreds of gigs of ram into hardware, if the software is sloppy no amount of hardware will save it.
I think solid benchmark testing is going to be what really determines this. Boot up times, stress multi tasking, run loads, etc. Hardware is cool…. I did think there were some solid points though on the universal connector. All in all a decent opinion column, but it felt like it lacked in objectivity and facts.
If Apple is copying features from Android phones, those companies must be doing something right. Not to mention the countless court cases that have gone back and forth between Apple and other companies such as Samsung.
I would like to do some more research with benchmark numbers. I have looked briefly at benchmark numbers in the past. I know as far as multitasking goes, Android phones really reign supreme with their 4 and 8-core processors. However, single threaded tasks seem to be quicker on iPhones.
You just get a lot more hardware for less money when you buy an Android phone in general, not always. Thanks so much for creating this article! I agree with the stats you posted here. But what about the fact that android allocates a maximum ram of 48 MB per app where as IOS can provide MB per its applications?
Infact there is no clear memory limitation in IOS. May be that is the reason IOS apps are far ahead when it comes to quality and performance? That will explain the benchmark results despite the fact that android devices have a better configuration on paper.
What is the point of having huge configuration values when apps cannot utilize the same? Also dont forget the fact that to get an app in the app store the strict approval process takes about 2 weeks where as play store has no approval process at all. This article shows that how much you hate apple for doing so good in market. I suggest you to accept the fact instead of blaming others. It shows how much I hate Apple for doing so good in the market? Yeah, about that….
I used Samsung S4 previously. Like storing any documents. To attach something to your email you have to get it from cloud or some shit. After compromising, it sucks to get phone call. Just goes to voicemail. I thought T mobile network is bad. When I tried my sim in Motorola I was getting calls. I switched to Verizon now. But it just goes to voicemail sometimes.. Lot of butt hurt isheep commenting. One of my big beefs with Apple is longevity.
For example, my iPhone 4S sucks wind. Sure, hardware is everything, but the operating system can make it into a retard. I have felt that as well. As I mentioned in my article, I use an iPad at work. It still works fine, but people are constantly updating their apple phones and tablets.
Even Verizon has teamed up with Apple to offer their customers to get a new phone every year that they release a new one. What happened to just keeping your phone for at least a couple years? Fragmentation my friends. A third of Android users are running software that is multiple years old.
My friend has a Droid Mini running 4. That being said, yea, after a few years, a phone running software released 3 years after its production date will not run as fast as if it kept its original software. I appreciate all of the features Google has packed into the latest Android release. Funny enough, it looks more iOS like and Apple is carefully trying to become more open about things.
Hey there, thanks a lot for the detailed comment! I do think that Marshmallow and Nougat are fantastic. Yes, the bloatware and weird UIs that are slapped on top of stock Android can get in the way for some people. I would also agree that it seems that Apple is trying to become more open about things.
I am an apple user. However, I will give props where it is due. Even I will admit that androids are better than iPhones. Awesome article! I have opportunity and need to use two phones simultaneously.
So I use an iPhone 6 Plus and a galaxy note 5. My observations- Android allows very useful customisation.. For example I can have a widget showing scrollable list of all tasks for next week or my gmail inbox or whole month view of my calendar right on my home screen. What about smart dialling in android? Start punching letters on dialling pad and android comes out with matching names or numbers n I can call straightaway.
In my recent tour I used my note 4 and iPhone 6 Plus for similar pics. When zoomed in n saw on my MacBook, note 4 always had better details in pics. What about voice dialling and searching web? Google gets it right most of the times. What about back button and ability to close all background apps in one click!
Google maps r better than Apple maps n feels better on android But I agree iPhone is better in many areas — software updates r available to all iPhones fast. But I see that android is more imaginative n creative and brings out more innovations. Ok so I have a galaxy s5 aswell and I never knew my phone was this awesomazing. Thx for the facts because now I can hold my ground against android haters.
What about Android phones. Three or four apps are running and the phone starts slowing down lagging. For the fact that Android is an universal system for many brands, it can not be as light as iOS made just for one brand.
I totally agree with this article!! Hardware skyrockets Android off the charts and leaves Apple in the dust. Although I am an iPhone user, I absolutely love the android layout and customization. Cause we know nothing about phones and want to use our time studying something other than the phone itself.
But it looks like true productivity requires the investment of self-education TIME — how-to-use-your-phone study time. Can you really not do that at all in an iPhone? Thanks for a great article. Thanks so much for making it seem a little less impossible. I have some hope. Apple and samsung have their fights and all. But please gold samsung? Not a total hater but i do agree on the durability. I knew little about android phones, so iOS was a king for me, because it took care of all my personal things.
Thanks for that. I accept everything about android over iOS. But what I felt is, android got many things than ios but iPhone is the only phone that has only useful things. Anyway I am a first time android user and I picked up the best android phone in the market to check it out. So what I got is iPhone is more personal. It makes me feel like it is my personal assistant or something. Everything from our health to schedule to the smooth interface without any lags, I prefer iPhone in many cases.
I think iPhone too has some small customization like moving the icons and all. No where should they get difficult in doing something with their phone. But with every android phones, it will start lagging after some months. I use my iPhone 6 more than I use my S6 only for showing off to my friends. For me, after using these two phones, Apple is the only company that thinks for the easiness of people. Thanks for your detailed response Mohammed! There are definitely customizations here and there on various phones that some users might really like, and some users might not use at all.
Definitely an advantage for the Apple side of things there. Hey Zac! I have to admit I laughed when I read your comment. Yeah the article I referred to about why Apple is better than Android was very poorly stated in my opinion which is the reason I wrote this article. I appreciate the feedback! I am writing a report on ios vs android at school and this has helped a ton. I am a HUGE apple hater and this has lots of great info.
I was just wondering if you can give any info to cite this source. Hey Jayden. Glad to hear it helped you out!
Are you just wondering how you could cite this article in a school report? There is one major difference I saw when I changed the phone to Iphone from android.
I just dont have to save a not so important number, but when I get a call from that same number 6 months later, Its easy to recollect the conversations.
I miss that so much and that is probably why I am going to change it back to Android. Another one is the swype type keyboard, Its addictive once you get used to it. Interesting observation, thanks for sharing! No android can match its quality. Great hardware with simple software. Love androids way better than iphones have had two iphones but were not all that great and plus some apple chargers get destroyed to easily so android over iphone anyday. ONE point that I will have to say is this, I am a stay at home mom and therefore I use my laptop for any and all things related to the Web.
So would it be worth it to try the iPhone for my reason of originally wanting to change — FaceTime. FaceTime is an interesting topic to bring up.
I sold my note 4 out of disappointment, idk how to say it but i agree with that guy who said you feel cluttered with your android. Less i care about stupid quadcore nor exynos.
Its the experience that really matters. IOS is the real buttery smooth in all areas. East went nwrth south android ok is best n will be the best. Talk to my hands apple blahh blahh blahh. Eat that. Much cleaner. I also like how an android phone can be used as a storage device and how I can also run pirated shit on my phone. Omg I totally agree…I have been using an android phone since the droids came out…well on my service plan I had an option to upgrade and I did..
I see why droids are call smart phone because they are just so much smarter…I hate the back button on iPhone.. So I have to download a third party app just to get my files.. I love the physical back button on an Android phone as well! That was going to be one of my reasons listed in the blog post, but I decided against it.
But, definitely an advantage in my opinion being able to hit a physical back button rather than doing all your navigating through on-screen arrows like on an iPhone. I kinda agree but the android is more of a PC rather than an xbox since PCs offer more freedom than consoles. But then again, the initial price of a PC is like that of the iPad Pro in its release. I agree that androids had the superior hardware. They had better specs, customization and less limits.
The iPhone 6 takes half of ram to do things that the s5 does and sometimes it does it even better since androids had the nasty habit of crashing new apps B. A good example of this is the iPhone 4 which can still run heavy apps such as mortal kombat x and world of tanks blitz F. Its much more reliable and it runs smoother than the Android Also, androids gets viruses and bloatware. Also, a lot of lower end phones these days rely on the SD for more stowage.
Also, one of the things that I notice about the app stores on both phones is that the Google play store is filled with more scam apps, bloatware, apps with viruses and crappy games. The iOS has always been the king when it comes to reliability, stability and overall usability. Yes, I like the features and the freedom that android phones offer. But it wont do what the iOS does best. Great blog TheCrambler. I really agree with what you said.
Me, the reason I prefer Android over iPhone is because I like transferring music, videos, epub, pdf, etc. You have to use iTunes to transfer files from pc to iPhone. And I find iTunes not very user friendly. I would have to agree with that.
For single-threaded tasks on iPhones, they tend to have a slight speed advantage. However, anything that requires multi-tasking tends to be much quicker on an Android phone that has a processor with multiple cores.
That being said, I would much rather all the advantages of an Android phone such as the Samsung Galaxy over an iPhone. I mean I for one would never accept the latest even as a gift. Glad to hear your thoughts! Iran, huh? I would love to read that, I am a Xbox kid my self. I might actually wait and see what the Galaxy S7 has to offer before I upgrade.
I do have a friend that has the S6 and he loves it. However, yes, there are a few things Samsung did that were frustrating… such as taking away the external SD card slot to be able to expand your memory, and yes you cannot take the back off to access your battery anymore unfortunately.
Hiya, I much agree with this blog, Apple may do a couple of things better, yet android, as Kevin said, is a more free, open phone which can give you the satisfaction of being able to be free on your own phone. I recently got a Samsung galaxy s6 for Christmas and love it, before that I had a iPhone 5s which in my opinion, was boring.
The thumb sensor never worked correctly, the display was horrid and I was basically in a prison in my phone which angered me to the full extent. However, I do own a iPad Air, and I believe this to be much better than a Samsung tablet, but in the phone department android does topple iPhone over. Thanks for commenting! I am also with you on the tablet comment, though.
Funny how that works. But hey, I really appreciate the compliment and glad to hear you enjoy the blog. I know this is old, however… Android puts apple in the weeds.
On my android device I can download directly from the web pretty much any and all zip files. Thanks for the comment Kevin! It can be very frustrating. Thank you for greatly describing some of the more apparent reasons that Android is more favorable amongst many others. I really like this article! My after school club in school actually had a debate on which is better. I used this article to help back me up in my point of view. Hey Lee! Thanks for stopping by and dropping a comment. I know. My whole family has has apple.
Only my parents, brothers, and sisters are smart enough to have an s5 and s6. Androids eats apples. Fantastic article, I agree with all of your points. I currently own a Samsung Galaxy S5. I have had many different phones in the past I lose phones a lot but never an iPhone which I am proud of. I live with my parents who are both iPhone lovers. Thanks James! I still own a Samsung Galaxy S5 and am more than happy with it.
Looking into the Galaxy S7 which should be getting announced within a week or so. Excellent discourses on the apple android diferences i have struggled to get clarity on this subject call me a big fan of this column and i will be looking for more. Thanks for your comment, I appreciate it! There will definitely be more to come, so keep your eyes peeled. I have been using very cheap Andriods for the last couple years, and I must agree with you.
Thanks for the reply! Since I am writing a blog, let me tell everyone this: The so called Quad-Co processors of SnapDragon in Android, they use this technique called big. The big cores use more power when they perform a task but uses more battery. Now the guy said Android has twice the megapixels.
Do you even know the mega-pixel is just the size of the photo and it has nothing to do with the quality of it. What is funny about android users, that they compare one iPhone to plenty of android phones… For example: iPhone has a outstanding quality?
Folks, are you using all the android phones at the same time? There are hundreds of more phones that run the Android operating system on their phones vs. Most Android devices will drain faster than an iPhone.
