iOS vs. Android

Image
I’ve yet to own an iOS device, but these arguments for iOS from this page at Android Authority (believe it or not) are very strong. “Whether Apple processors are better or not, what matters most is iOS is optimized to work perfectly with the few devices Apple makes. Meanwhile, Android is dropped into a sea of smartphones, tablets, and other products. It’s up to OEMs to optimize the software for the hardware, and they sometimes do a poor job of it.” “Apple’s closed ecosystem makes for a tighter integration, which is why iPhones don’t need super powerful specs to match the high-end Android phones. It’s all in the optimization between hardware and software. Since Apple controls production from beginning to end, they can make sure resources are used more efficiently.”
