Why is IPhone Better than Android?
It does run a more stable, better optimized OS. Less lag, viruses, updates the day they are released vs weeks, months or eventually never.
Are Androids better than iPhones?
The truth is that Android phones are just for hipsters who either : -can't afford an iPhone (this only applies to the cheap crappy droids.) -want to stand out -think iPhones are gay -believe higher specs mean higher performance I had to use a droid X2 for about a month and i was glad to have my good ol' iPhone 4S back. It is all in the software. Droids perform badly because they only have a few operating systems that have to run on dozens of different phones. Apple can optimize their software to the point where an iPhone 4S can kick any droid's *** in a benchmark or Video export test. Software optimization is one thig that Android and its hardware manufacturers will never be able to perfect. Apple is the way to go. They were the first ones to do any of this crap. Tere were no full touchscreen smartphones with a real OS until 2007, The Apple iPhone. There were absolutely no tablets on the market until 2010, the Apple iPad. Now there are literally dozens of brands trying to get their share with poorly designed and optimized iPad cheats. Did you EVER see any phones with front facing cameras until the iPhone 4 pf 2010? Didn't think so. Now, a droid is laughed at if it doesn't have one. Pinch-to-zoom? All major android devices use this feature now. I can't believe people don't give them a harder time for quite obviously stealing this from Apple. Boy are they lucky Apple lost their patent on this feature or Android users would still be using physical zoom buttons. All android products, the OS and the devices, are merely cheats off of apple. Go with the originals. Thanks
Why are Android phones so cheap compared to iPhones?
You can only get the iPhone from one manufacturer—Apple. The operating system used in the iPhone, iOS, is a proprietary Apple product. You can’t just get your own copy of iOS and put it on phones and sell it.Android phones, on the other hand, use an operating system that is open-source. Android is actually just another distro of Linux, although it runs some independently-developed software on top of the Linux kernel in place of the GNU userland tools used in desktop Linux. You can even see what kernel version you’re running in the Settings part of any Android phone:This one is using kernel version 3.18.19+.Anyway, due to Android being based on open-source software, anyone can use it, just like you can download dozens of other complete Linux distros and do whatever you please with them. Since ARM-based systems-on-a-chip (SoC’s) are cheap and so are capacitive LCD screens, pretty much any electronics factory in Shenzhen or Tianjin can churn them out, stick Android on them, and sell as many as they can. And you don’t even have to use straight-up Android. Amazon’s so-called “FireOS” is a modified, rebranded Android, in the same way that Linux Mint is rebranded Ubuntu (which is, in turn, rebranded Debian).Since Android is readily available and can be installed on commodity hardware, there is massive competition in that market space and Android-based phones can be had for relatively little money. The only limitation on the price of the proprietary Apple iPhones comes from the fact that there is an alternative in the form of Android phones.For those old enough to remember 25–30 years ago, it’s basically history repeating itself with the proprietary Apple Macintosh and DOS/Windows PC’s using off-the-shelf Intel x86 hardware.
Is the iphone better than the android?
Personally, I would choose an Android phone any day because on the iPhone: -cant take out the battery -no removable memory -only Apple-approved apps -STILL no true multi-tasking like Android -cant customize your phone AT ALL -no Flash support -cant install apps from your computer -no widgets -no free GPS navigation -no mobile hotspot -no free wireless music downloads -no ringback tones -no refunds for paid apps -all file syncing MUST be done through iTunes (pictures, etc.) -Android phones have more memory storage -most Android phones have better cameras -no standard USB cable like all other phones -the new iPhone has horrible antenna issues -instant Android OTA software updates- don’t have to wait a year like iPhone -can’t get service in an ATT store- have to find an Apple store -works on ATTs horrible network -no unlimited data -tethering comes out of your data plan instead of being separate Android is miles ahead of Apple- with the new 4.0 software, Apple is only now letting people do things that Android can, like add folders to their home screen, because God forbid that anyone should be able to do that on their cell phone!! And even in 4 years, they haven’t been able to give the iPhone true multi-tasking capabilities, like Android. It took them 4 years to put a flash on the camera for crying out loud!! By the time Apple puts out a new iPhone, there’s a better Android phone out 4 months later. Bottom line: they will always be trailing Android. Android is already selling more phones than Apple, and it’s been out half the time that the iPhone has. By fall, the Market will have over 100,000 apps, which is more than the Apple Store had at its 2-year mark. Android’s open-source nature will always be more appealing to devs and phone manufacturers because they can market to every carrier, and dozens of phones, instead of 1 carrier and 1 phone. The possibilities are literally endless as far as Android is concerned, because ANYONE can make an app to do ANYTHING on the phone. With Apple, they have to approve every single app that goes into the Store. They even rejected an app because it said the word Android in it- how far do you really think they’re gonna go with that kind of closed-minded thinking?? I want to decide what goes on my phone, not the other way around..
Is android phones really for poor people ?
If the technology does pretty much the same exact thing as something pricier, than a better question is. "Are people that spend $700 on an iphone better than the person that spent $300 on an android phone, which has different apps, but works pretty much the same?" And consider that iPhones are the worst phones to repair. They build them in such a way that if they break, you have NO CHOICE but to have them repaired by their techs. Whereas an Android phone is simple to fix.
