Today we will be talking about the never ending battle and find out the best Operating system among iOS vs Android. Both these platforms are amazing platforms and each one of them have their Pros and Cons.We have compared both these platforms and spotted out some vital differences to help you find out which one of these fulfill your requirements and suits best for you.
CUSTOMIZATION
You can do lots of customization in Android such as changing themes,launcher,widgets,custom lock screen,even custom ROM and much more but in iOS you have lots of restriction the customization means just changing wallpaper and adding and removing apps from folders.Some users prefer android because they needs more customization rather some people just prefer iOS for ease of use and simplicity.
PRICE
This is the most important factor because you have to think of your pocket before making any purchases.The iOS is only available in iPhones whereas the Android is available in variety of smartphones such Samsung,Vivo,Oppo,OnePlus,Xiaomi,realme etc.The iPhones were always expensive from the start and not a budget friendly smartphone than Android smartphones.
OPTIONS AVAILABILITY
You have lot of variety in Android smartphones ranging from 5K indian rupees to 100K indian rupees whereas the iPhones has starting price of 42K indian rupees.The new iPhones are much expensive and if you're looking for budget friendly iPhone you have to take 2-3 year old model and even have to compromise on features whereas the newer Android smartphones are budget friendly and provides you better features than an iPhone.
SECURITY
It is the most important factor for some people if they have all of their data stored in their device.Since Android is an open source platform people knows better about it's development so it is easier to take out and leak your sensitive information whereas the iOS from very beginning is focused on security and there are very less chances that your data will be leaked.Samsung even has it's own processor and operating system it becomes one of the tough competitor to Apple in terms for security.
OPTIMIZATION
The processors of Android phones are manufactured from different companies such as Meditek and Qualcomm and they are designed for specific models but in case of iPhones the complete engineering is done by Apple from developing an OS to manufacturing hardware components.Therefore the synchronization between hardware and software is better in iOS than an Android.You will definitely find optimized apps,better stability and better performance in iOS than an Android.You will be shocked to know that google apps such as YouTube Studio works better in iOS than an Android.
SERVICE AND CUSTOMER SUPPORT
iPhones from very beginning has better customer support than Android smartphones.If you have any technical issues in your smartphone you just have to take it to the Apple store they will solve the issue or they will give you a replacement but if you have issues in your Android phone they will repair it but they will not give you a replacement.That's the beauty of Apple service.
DOWNLOADS
Since iPhone devices are more secure they don't give you the authority to download videos,photos and music from unknown sources and 3rd party sites whereas android allow you to download photos,music,movies and files from different sites.You can only listen music from iTunes and even you have to pay for it.You have to download and install iTunes in your PC and then transfer music to your iPhone this becomes irritating for users who recently switched from Android to iOS.
CHARGING TIME
In this point the Android undoubtedly takes the lead over an iPhone the charging time of flagship Android smartphones is way faster than an iPhone.Android has developed a lot in charging technologies and iPhone is not even closer to Android. OnePlus 7T Pro takes 1 hour 10 mins to charge from 0 to 100% and 0 to 75% in 30 mins but iPhone 11 Pro Max takes 0 to 50% in 30 mins and 2 hours to charge from 0 to 100%.Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra takes 30 mins to charge from 0 to 62% and takes 1 hour to charge from 0 to 100%.
UPDATES
iPhones gets faster updates than Androids.Since iPhones gives you better customer service, even if your smartphone is 5 years old you will still get the latest iOS updates.But if you take the case of mid ranges Android smartphones you will get updates hardly upto 2 years not more than that.
CAMERA
iPhone takes more of natural,real and more accurate photos than android flagships but the android flagships tends to take more bright,luminant,saturated photos than iPhones. Photos are completely subjective some users prefer photos from iPhone while other prefer photos from Android.But if you take the case of video capturing definitely iPhone leads here it gives better stability than Android smartphones and an alternative to DSLR.
HEADPHONE JACK AND MICRO SD CARD
iPhone neither has a headphone jack nor has a micro SD card support whereas most of the mid range android smartphones does have a 3.5 mm headphone jack and micro SD card support.This doesn't restrict the users to use wired earphones and gives storage limitation.
RESELL VALUE
This is the thing where nobody disagrees.If you are thinking to sell your phone the android will give you comparably lower resell value than an iPhone.You will get decent amount of money even if your iPhone is 2 years old.
CONCLUSION
There is no definitive answer which OS is better among iOS vs Android it's all about personal preference if you looking for ease to use smartphone without much customization,simplicity,needs faster updates and has a good budget you can definitely go with the iPhone but if you want to customize your smartphone and and has a lower budget segment you can go with Android smartphones.
