An Android User Switches To Iphone by fowlyansh181(m): 8:02am On Feb 05, 2016
first this is a real life review and experience of a user and not some written article I munched from somewhere. I started using android phones from 2012 , to be honest my first android phone was a tecno n3, I finally upgraded to tecno n7 , then to Samsung s3, s4, then htc one m7, then s5 , my last android was a htc one m8 before I switched to ios . to be honest before encountering ios I was a die hard android fan, I root, flash custom roms, use xposed installer and modules , tweak kernels, in fact I was an android guru on my own, cos I develope my own little custom roms . but I got to a stage were I got tired of it all, custom roms are made to upgrade phones and bring many features to androids , but they don't come bug free, show me any existing custom rom and I will show you its bugs,.. but one thing I really hated on android is lag , now when I say lag I don't mean real heavy lags , I mean not being fluid. now some will argue that android has gotten to a stage where it doesn't lag again, but you need to use ios to understand what I mean. when using ios and android side by side you would notice that ios is more fluid and responsive to android , in fact if am to say , the little iPhone 4s is more fluid and responsive to the galaxy s6 edge... the s6 may open apps faster than the iPhone 4s and handle more apps, but on usage the iPhone 4s would be more fluid and experience less lag to the s6 ... my current ios experience beats all the android experience I have had..their was this app showbox on android which I download movies from on android, my android experience made me hate the app because it lagged on android (htc one m8) it took time to respond but on my iphone I got the same app it's name is movie box, Jeus it is so so so fluid , I fell in love with the app again , I even queued up some 2016 movies for downloads later today on it., also WHATSAPP , using whatsapp on android their is This little thing that happens ,whatsapp , sometimes if I have pending msgs and I open whatsapp it freezes sometimes up to 20 secs before it responds, sometimes it freezes only for 5secs before it responds, sometimes it doesn't freeze at all .. it is general on all android some will say it doesn't happen to them but I challenge you that it does, but whatsapp experience on ios is a whole new Different thing, i have no lag . no freezes infant I will say it I am now an ios fan. seriously the super fast and fluid experience is the best thing I have ever experienced on a smartphone... I do come across some difficulties on ios like downloading simple files online and all is not possible until you jailbreak or have I downloader, but I have my PCs to do downloads and seriously i will choose ios over android hundred times if that is the only hiccups I get with ios .. seriously I was once of the opinion that Apple was stingy and a good for nothing costly device , but now I understand why. the I device never disappoints In any way , my battery lasts , my phone charges perfectly, I get the latest updates, network is super strong on it, my phone is super fluid , experienced no little or no lags.. and I get my fair share of respect when I am seen with an iphone.. from the iphone 5 to 6s , the respect is Class... the experience buttery smooth. this is my experience with ios so far, I am on the current ios 9.2.1, .. and going back to android really would take a long time , until it addresses it's performance and smoothness ..

I certainly believe that you will still come here to say iOS is the worst os so far with concrete evidence. But time will tell.




Keep enjoying it while it last.

Uncle, I strongly disagree with your views.
Though I have not seen any motivation to encourage apple's exploitation by buying any of its products, I'll will tell u the drag in android is network induced.
I have used upto note 3 and s5, I am now using infinix zero 3.
I have also used mtn both android plan & several tweaks. Glo and etisalat too.
In all, u will experience drags. I power my device with swift 4g and the experience is a wow.

with Airtel I get up to 2mbps while downloading, I used Airtel on both the iphone and htc one m8 , I have both at hand currently .. it is not network , if it is network then I think the iphone has a stronger network to the htc one m8? .. I Airtel on both .

@OP I have a feeling that you just bought the Iphone. Last year I sold my Lg G3 and got an Iphone 5. After using the phone for about a week I was like; IOS where have you been.
After one month I started getting bored of it. By the end of the second month I sold it and got a Gionee p4. I'm still using the p4 till now.
Iphones are only good as music players.
