It's very easy to identify people who are unintelligent and ill-mannered. What happens to arguing maturely without insults? How many of una here don count 700k buy phone? Some of una buy for street at dash away prices, but, once you see argument like this, you begin dey insult people instead of driving home your point intellectually make all man reason with you. IPhone or android or even both, shebi na satisfaction we want, e no warrant insult. I have both phones; if I feel one of them gives me more satisfaction over the other, that doesn't mean I'm not tech-savvy neither do I deserve to be insulted for penning my opinion about them. If you are for or against an opinion, you state your facts/arguments and people go learn, no be to dey insult person wey you never meet before. I'm just saying; it's not like I have interest in this thread anyway.

Thank you bro. This is what an argument should be.

charlesm91:
i think there should be a distinction when comparing iPhones with android makers or iOS with android. We must remember that every apple chip was at a point in time released as a flagship and hence the reason for its long software support, unlike Android that caters to different price points down to the lowest entry barrier. So, it's only fair to compare iPhones to flagship Android devices before making a conclusion. eg: take the iPhone 13 and Samsung S21 and use a basis for comparison, so when one comes out and condemns Android based on past experience , i usually ask what device was used prior to switching to iPhone. And frankly, the two level Android makers currently that fits the bill for comparison, with all due respect to tecno for their work, is Samsung (Flagships, not midranges like A series and below) and Google Pixels. Then comes Honor(and Huawei before their issue with us govt), but they have limited visibility here. Every other Android maker is a level below.
Apple has the advantage of synergy because they produce and sell their own. Android is open sourced making it difficult for chip makers to optimize their chips for a specific device and selected range of devices. I know Samsung has their own chips but it's still going to take time for them to level up with Apple bionic chipsets. Google is the closest competitor and perhaps Android's hope to close that gap with their upcoming Tensor chip. I don't expect the numbers to rival apple, but what i want is to see how closely the sum of parts interact with each other seamlessly just as how Apple's done it. My close encounter with pixel 5 gives me hope.
So it's basically time wasting to argue which is better than the other given they come from different foundations. I use both devices and i can appreciate their strengths when it comes to specific tasks i want to carry out.
P.S. the myth that android phone lags should be banished. Yes, it will lag if you buy a mid-low range android, but flagship Androids have gotten better and there's barely lags from my S10. Apple too does lag here and there but their smooth animations cover up for it. think of Android like a windows computer - you have to cater for it periodically- meaning android gives you full control. Apple controls it's product and gives you the experience it thinks is best for its users. if you're looking for the closest apple like experience on android, then google pixel is your best bet. watch out for the pixel 6.

I have used one before widget is restricted unlike that of Android. Why did you avoid the split screen part?

It can’t do a split-screen obviously, the iPhones and android devices can’t have the same features, Does an android device have airdrop feature?, No.

They are different but on the other hand, they share similarities.
Re: 5 Reasons Why Android Still Beats The Iphone by charlesm91(m): 10:53am On Oct 05, 2021
no, that's the multitasking view. iOS still can't do split apps. thanks, i wanted to confirm if you knew what you were saying.
DeanOlamide:



Is this what you are talking about ?


Well if I understand you better …


I can run as many apps as I want ….


Take a look!!!!

u got to shed more light on this. Can you run two apps divided on your screen at the same time? i know it's possible with iPads but haven't seen that with iPhones.


Yes you can. You can use:
picture in piture
Third party apps
Jailbreak

The attached image is me using the split screen. But to be honest, I rarely use this cos my phone is so fluid that switching between apps is just as seamless as having them on split screen mode. And apart from that, I am a person who likes a large screen real estate for my apps. Splitting my screen into two is not just it for me.

For God sake iPhone is a device, Android is an operating system

You don't know shit
This is literally because all iOS products are called iphone except tabs and pc and there are lots of device using Android os

So what would have been your reaction if the op caption is iphone vs itel,Xiaomi, and listing all the device using Android os

So If you see another caption saying iPhone vs android
Now you know what it means

That "you don't know shit" wasn't necessary
But I had to put it grin

The topic is misleading...

It's ought to be IOS vs Android

Or iphone vs Samsung/Huawei/

Firstly
The op mentioned diverse features ranging from different brands

So any phone that uses the android Os is an Android device

So iphone vs Android is correct

He's not talking about one device
He listed features different brands produced

Any device using Android os is and Android device and those that uses iOS are called iphones

So iphone vs Android is correct
Unless you want to see captions like iphone vs itel, Samsung, Xiaomi and lot more
Re: 5 Reasons Why Android Still Beats The Iphone by dapolaw(m): 12:06pm On Oct 05, 2021
I beg to disagree.



It's just like saying MacBook vs Microsoft.

Okay let's look at it this way
If the op caption is iphone vs Samsung

Then you get to the post and see him comparing iphone features to Xiaomi and other brands

Since it's only the iphone brand that uses iOS
And Android can be any brand

That makes iphone vs Android correct

On your point here
I know you might have agreed with him if he said iOS vs Android

If you can accept that but doesn't want to accept that it can also be called as iphone vs Android then that is "I don't even know what to call it"

Hmm
I just explained to another guy just now
You sure Know if you search up Android devices on Google
The results will pop up with different brands using the android os

And if you search for iphone devices then you see results with iphone 0 to 13 showing

He should have said iOS vs Android but that doesn't really fit the post

If you ask me why
Ram is not what comes with the os but it's whatever the brand want to bless the device with

So the post is literally the comparison of the two devices and not really the os

Peace bro

still not correct. I get your analogy

But in context, it's wrong.
We have IOS, android, bada, blackberry os, palm, Symbian etc.
compare them.

Not phones.

It's obvious from your analogy, your using Android that's why.

Rooting. When u talk about rooting, iPhone will prostrate for Android. It's incontestable.
What are you enjoying from your rooted device??
Over the years, the Reason why people root is because of certain features, but with time, they are usually included to native Android.

What are you enjoying in your own right now

Bro thank you for this, you're intelligent. I honestly don't see the fuss about this iphone and Android lifelong battle. Use your device in peace and most especially use the one your money can carry.
Most of the Android users here will be comparing high end phones they've not used before (I'm not saying some people can't afford them) like some Xiaomi Redmi users will be arguing with someone using a Samsung s21 ultra or oppo find x.
Same as the iphone 6,7 and 8 users shouting that there's no other phone like iphone, when you're not even using their latest flagship just because your Twitter shows Twitter for iphone, you think you're the next best thing after slice bread.
I'm not saying this to discredit anyone and their devices but if you guys want to argue, argue with sense and stop trying to shame another product. At the end of the day you can only use a device you can afford

I just like how you put it in your post. Argue with facts and stop insulting
Some of the Android users here using low midrange budget devices will be comparing and arguing with someone using a Samsung s21 ultra or oppo find x.

lord knows I’ve tried with the customization aspect. To have beautiful wallpapers and not be able to arrange your icons so that the wallpaper can shine is a buzz kill. ios is good and has its strengths but waking everyday to the homescreen is depressing; even with the widgets which still can’t be placed anywhere. In the end we all adapt to how apple sees fit
