They're as much at risk of attack as each other but when we talk about threat level, Keloid's open approach allows every Tom, Dick and Harry access to the code that comprises its operating system so it's more of a target. I'm not saying iOS is invincible, its OS is just more strictly reviewed making it a lot less vulnerable, generally speaking. Let's call a spade a spade.

It's only someone that despises me that will advise me to use a Keloid phone grin


Babe, u r one techie babe hiding under iOS.

Android susceptibility to malware is NOT because it's source code is readily available. Its because it's widely used. Linux with a readily available source code has considerably less malware than Windoze. Windows is more widely used and therefore more profitable to attack. Ditto android.

And open source means it can be easily peer reviewed for flaws and corrected. On the contrary unless Apple identifies and acknowledges flaws with iOS users never get to know of them. So hackers have a field day plundering on iOS.

Come to think of it wasn't it Apple that was hacked and celeb nudes released recently? I haven't heard Google has been compromised yet. Plus u can use androids without being tied to Google(Nokia X etc al).

For me, note 4 murdered iPhone. *iWait ur counterpunch*

Yes, widely used BECAUSE of its huge global popularity (they're cheap a lot more 'economical', majority of Keloids are merely priced to move and not neccesarily to be aspired towards grin) AND its open approach.

Btw, you didn't actually dispute my point of androids being more susceptible to malware than iOS, you just offered a different reason for why it is?

You android users are so cute when you get confused grin

Even Sundar Pichai, senior vice president of Android admitted that it wasn’t built for security.

"We cannot guarantee that Android is designed to be safe, the format was designed to give more freedom."

You people should just tweet him and ask him what he meant grin

But, sweetheart, to be honest I dunno how u people live and manage with apple products. Only the fact that I can't transfer files over btooth makes it look shakespearian in age.

But it's bout preference, so anyone can like what suits him.

I got an iphone 6, after 1 week I sold it and ran back to android grin

i transfer file using bluetooth on my 5s wink, jailbreak an iOS device and experience true power, i use an iOS and an android device so i can confidently tell u d iOS is miles ahead

What android phone do u use? U need to be specific.

Reason is iOS devices only have one manufacrurer and one phone a year, that phone is the iPhone which is PREMIUM.

ANDROID devices on the other hand have hundreds of manufacturers that chin out thoiusands of phones every year. They have the good, the bad, the ugly, mid range, high end and finally PREMIUM phones. So comparing an iPhone 5s woth a mid range android phone is unfair.

If u use an HTC one m7 or m8 u will know iPhone is not better (comes to preference though , but it is a tight contest). But if u use a Samsung galaxy grand and put it against an iPhone, then there's no contest.

That Bluetooth transfer ain't possible on ios8. Upgrade ur 5s to ios8 and see that the app ain't on cydia.

I have used an iphone 6. I jailbroke it, tried all possibility to love it by doing simple tasks I do on my highend android phones and I can't. So I sold it, despite trying my best to love it and make a swag outta it. How on earth can't I download songs online and play them straight without getting a PC always to move via itunes. My music library has many wma. files and ios will never play that. Plus some video formats? Why? Simply coz they belong to Microsoft.

Oga, life is too short to be burdened by IOS. Even 10k techno will do easy things that iPhones can't do.

i use an xperia z, maybe its old but it serves me to the max (2 gig ram, 16gig internal memory plus 16gig mcard) am a phone freak to say the least

btw to me, the only android phones i wld use are samsung note series e.g note 3 and 4 (s series not included), xperia series, i so much dislike htc phones, used an m8 and i hated it, they are cute & smooth but a no no for me

my first love wld always b iOS, i agree they have some drawbacks in arears of customization and openess but those drawbacks were intentional for specific reason which wld include security and i require that security.... its over simplicity and fluidity is one thing that makes my heart melt

That is one stupid thing by iPhone. I stopped using iPhone since iPhone 4s. Inability to sync my music library with different computers was a let off. I mean if I sync my phone with iTunes from my laptop, then I go to my friends house and want to sync the music from his laptop, then all the music on my iPhone will have to be deleted before I can sync from another laptop. That is really crazy. Anybody with the latest iPhones pls tell me if they have fixed this problem.

Also inability to play all movie formats unless u download from iTunes, or u convert it using iTunes on the computer, inability to drag and drop music and videos, send files through Bluetooth, etc. All those little things are let downs. No doubt the iPhone is a beautiful and great phone if u can do without all the aforementioned shortcomings.

Team HTC one m7 (best android phone ever made, snapdragon 600 outperforming snapdragon 801, even 805, unbelievable). And LG g3 (I call her the beast with 5.5 inch qhd screen with over 500 PPI).

Xperia z is a good phone, my wife uses one. It was the first of the Sony xperia z line ups, but has a terrible viewing angle and not perfect. That is why Sony released the z1 after just 6 months of the release of the z, followed by z2 and then z3. Xperia z3 is a very very huge improvement on z.

I respect iphones for their simplicity and ease of use which is what matters to apple. Androids on the other hand care more about functionality . I don't rate any Samsung phone (be it note or s series), touchwiz will always lag even if they put 5gb RAM. Samsung phones have great cameras and tons of functions, some which are useless (like air gestures), this affects the overall user experience and makes the phone lag with no time.

HTC sense on the other hand care about just the important things. U will be surprised how HTC one m7 still goes strong with zero lag even with snapdragon 600, it still runs smoother than a galaxy note 4 with snapdragon 805. You will always experience a little lag on the note 4 after browsing for a long time and pressing the home button. The widgets will stutter and it will take like 2 seconds for then to load. This is completely non existent on an HTC one. I still prefer the HTC one m7 to the m8 , the m7 has the perfect size IMHO.

datz wat we are talking about, putting some functions on phones when those function are unnecessary and used only wen u jes bought the phone newly, after a while u r bored wit those same selling point and need a new phone dats less simpler, and dose r the things (functions) wch most android fanboys will use to say iPhones are years behind wen in reality iPhones are the bomb

the useless NFC on my xperia has never bin used for once btw

am no fanboy , i use any fone dat suites me, like the samsung note has me hooked cos of its pen wch was wat made me use one then, instead of typing in my notes or ideas i jst simply pen it down on my phone, most people buy fones for the hype wch really disgusts me and datz y i hate seeing girls using iPhones cos they know not what to do with an iPhone, wen i get tired of my xperia, next on the line is a note, HTc is gr8, superb and sleek, BUT........

The reason why this phone is still strong despite been old and with lesser specs is cos its got no sd card.. Sd cards slows down phones but people don't seem to know hence the removal on the s6 siblings
