Apple and Android

It's a big thing, bigger than some people might know. With a world full of smartphones, companies have set a standard in the software in their phones. Companies like Motorola, Asus, Samsung, and LG to name a few, put in a software that is based on Android. They add their own changes, tweaks, and visual appearance to the software before they ship it out on their products. Though now visually different, this software is still called Android. To get a truly original experience of vanilla Android, you use to have to get a Nexus phone, a series of phones endorsed by Google, but now companies are producing phones by themselves with vanilla Android software.

Apple set their own standard by making their own software. iOS is their software they used for all their products. It's a refined software that has a large appeal to many. It's has a fairly simple UI that is standard throughout almost every version of iOS and any device that runs it. Therefore, if you're using an iPad and an iPhone, the way you will navigate to a website or app will be the same, counting out the screen size difference. Apple products themselves are typically well built. Every phone so far has been relatively the same appearance wise. If you look deeper into the phone into the specs you'll find some specs that some tech savvy people might find queer, but in practice these specs are just fine, and most products run fast.

Many people like to bring up the argument on the internet whether Android or Apple is better. It's usually heavily debated and then the debaters go away frustrated and influenced no one to change their mind. Truth be told, it's just an opinion, as what qualities do you judge that makes one better over another product. If you want to judge by quality off the device, a few years ago an Apple advocate would of won that argument, but now it is now so simple. Apple has always made a good quality devices at their time. Android devices were behind, as many manufacturers were producing many products over a short span of time, there were only a few devices some would say we're amazing quality. But now the focus of manufacturers has turned to that quality of a high value “flagship” phone. If you want to look at features of the software, you're heading into a heavily debated subject. Some would say Android clearly has more features, and I wouldn't say they're wrong. The whole premises of Android is that it's open sourced. Google developed Android and puts it out there available for manufacturers use on certain terms. Following the terms Google has set in place, manufacturers can alter and add what they want. This on top of Google’s future looking development means there's a lot of features built in there. If you look at Apple, they might not have every feature that an Android device might have,  but they have what's need, some cool features, but it's all refined, and works really well.

If you go with Apple, you get what you pay for, high quality, guaranteed to work for 1 to 2 years, and simple product. It works, has the basic features of the year, and reliable. If you go with an Android device, you'll get a large selection to choose from, wide price range, but you still have the ability to get a high quality product, with a large range of possibilities and customization. Either way, if you choose to invest in an Android or Apple device you’ll be happy with your experience.
