Android vs. iOS
When it comes to operating systems, which is better: Android or Apple’s iOS? Whether you’re an iPhone user or have an Android device, you’re probably a bit biased toward your own and think it's the best of the bunch. But even some Apple fans will admit that Android outshines iOS in certain areas. Curious as to how? Here are five reasons why Android might just have the edge over Apple.
1. Customization
Android offers far more customization features than Apple's iOS, meaning you're not limited to what you can change and how you personalize your device to best fit your use. iPhone users, on the other hand, are often stuck and need to wait until Apple rolls out updates that let them do further customizations.
2. More Choices
If Apple users want to stick with iOS, they only have one device they can choose from: the iPhone. Android users, on the other hand, have plenty of options and can easily switch between big brands whenever they want to upgrade their smartphone, like Samsung and Google.
3. Faster Innovation
Android users are usually treated to unique, innovative features faster than Apple users are. Whether it's Always-On display or Circle to Search, devices running on Android implement these new elements sometimes years before Apple's iOS even catches up.
4. Split-Screen
For those who are fans of multitasking or like to watch a YouTube video while scrolling through social media, Android is your pick. Why? Because it allows split-screen, a feature that iOS and iPhone users don't yet get to enjoy.
5. Hardware Variety
iPhone users might get to choose between a slightly cheaper device with fewer features and the biggest, most expensive device in the lineup, but Android users get more choices for hardware. If they want a foldable phone or a phone with a better battery life, they're bound to find a better deal.
