Iphone Vs Android: 15 Common Features In Android Phones That You Won’t Find In I by cyberhawks: 10:15pm On Nov 17, 2015 |
iPhone vs Android: 15 common features in Android phones that you won’t find even in the newest iPhones : “If you don’t have an iPhone…” you probably have an Android phone (actually you are more likely to own an Android phone). And we give you 15 reasons to feel a little more pleased with your choice of phone. The iPhone that revolutionised the smartphone market is now in its 9th generation with the iPhone 6s and iPhone 6s Plus. But there’s a long list of features that these top-of-the-line phones don’t possess that many much-humbler Android devices do. 1. Universal charging interface: The scene of an iPhone user frantically asking around for a compatible charger is reminiscent of the Nokia ‘thin-pin days.’ The absence of a standard charging interface (supported by other platforms) can make iPhone users feel incapacitated at times when their phones run low on battery. The iPhone charging woes doesn’t end at that. The connector used in older iPhones 4/4s were different from the ones used in iPhone 5 and above. For an Android user, life is much simpler. With most Android phones being equipped with a charging interface that is more or less an industry standard, there is not much trouble in finding that friendly charger. The next move to USB Type-C is already on. Apple has included it in the new MacBook but will it be included in the next iPhone? 2. USB OTG (on-the-go): With a limited storage space on most phones, it’s not always possible for you to store everything that you need on your device. And that is when the OTG capability on Android phones (not a standard feature, but available on many phones) comes to the rescue. The OTG feature on phones allows you to simply connect a pen drive to your phone (via an OTG cable) and voila! Some pen drives even come with built-in OTG support. But if you are an iPhone user, this isn’t as easy and as readily available as for Android devices. 3. Wireless charging: While it’s a high-end feature and is currently available only in a few flagship Android phones, but not yet in any of the iPhones. 4. Dual-SIM support: I personally know a couple of users who moved from iPhone to Android merely because of the absence of the dual-SIM support in iPhones. This might not be so desirable a feature in Apple’s home market but in countries such as India, having two SIMs is often a necessity and this is becoming more of a norm for Android phones rather than an exception. 5. Expandable storage: There have been security and performance concerns about the inclusion of additional storage (via a microSD card) in a phone. And therefore, you will see companies taking different stands on this. While Apple has been sticking to its old idea of not offering an option to expand storage memory, the Android market is fragmented in this context. While majority of OEMs like Samsung, LG and Sony are of the opinion to have a microSD card slot in phones, others like Google, which has its OS running on all Android devices doesn’t prefer to offer additional storage on its Nexus devices. Xiaomi, on the other hand, has a mix of both (expandable and non-expandable models) in its Android product portfolio. Despite this, most Android users have an option to make a choice if they want phones with additional storage or remain comfortable with only built-in memory. On other hand, iPhone users need to just manage with the limited storage available on their phones. Even though iPhones come in different storage variants they are accompanied with deterring price tags.
