I prefer the iPhone. My close friend like android. I don’t get why after trying to get around on it. Most of my friends and business customers are iPhone people too.

Who what? I don't think I've ever opened iTunes in however many iPhones I've had.

Yeah I think its been ditched for quite some time. I do still wish IOS had real file system management but its caught up on everything else WRT interfacing. All apps via the onboard app store, wireless backups, and 99% of people just stream music anymore.

At this point the differences between Android and IOS are pretty slim, at least AOSP Android (lots of stuff piled on when skinned). IOS is finally more than just a grid of icons, much improved notifications, and SOME ability to replace default apps. And Android has replicated a lot of the polish of IOS.

If you have an apple product smash that update button, a pretty bad security vulnerability just got patched:

Very interesting map.

I am team Android. I am anti-apple simply because it is popular and it appears the masses run to Apple. I don't want to be part of the herd.

According to the interesting map, which one is more popular?

I think you kinda contradicted yourself there

I'll jump in too I suppose. I am team Droid all the way. I like the functionality of the phone, the customization capabilities you don't get with iPhone and I like the vast phone choices available. Iphone is too simple, too done for you and you have to like it. No...no the hell I don'! I can buy an excellent phone using a better OS (IMO) AND a better camera out the box. My buddy has an I phone, and while he constantly gets one due to work, he has admitted that as a phone its pure shit. He says its ok with computing stuff & intigration as stated here, but if it werent for his job he'd have a droid. My 2 cents

It really just comes down to the user.

iPhone is great for people who just want to use it and don't really care about having much control over anything.

Android is for folks who want the ability to change settings and features to their liking and have developer options.

iPhone used to have the advantage of connectivity with other devices, but lately that's been changing also. For example, if you wanted your phone to connect to your vehicle iPhone was the way to go because Android Auto wasn't common and wasn't offered by manufactures, but now its becoming an option with a lot of new vehicles.

In the end both are still going to cause people to be addicted to online social recognition and acceptance through IG follows and FB likes, while contributing to the increase of awkward face-to-face social interaction and the spread of misinformation because no one is actually going to take the time to utilize the wealth of knowledge available at their fingertips, and will instead believe the opinions of uneducated tiktok "influencers" who dropped out of college to sell feet pics on onlyfans for $19.99/month.

This one is always hilarious. I remember it back in the day. This is like 10-12 years old and it's still funny.

Hugely hilarious because truth. 😂

These arguments are so silly. Just use what you prefer, and be VERY glad that there are 2 competing mobile OS's - because if there was only one, it would suck due to the lack of competition. Android & iOS are in a constant race to outdo each other, and it's the consumer - of both - that directly benefits from it.
