If you’re deciding between iPhone & Samsung, here’s 5 valid differences between Android & iOS

We often hear Samsung and Apple users laughing and competing with each other. From the number of apps, to the camera quality to the functions and all. So what exactly is so special about the differences that is worth them competing all day err day?

Camera
First up, we have the camera. We always have the iPhone users volunteering to use their phones to take pictures. Yes, because they think that their cameras are so much better. They snub at Samsung cameras saying that it reduces the sharpness and the saturation. And after that, the iPhone users started gathering around each other, asking to “Airdrop”. But come on, with apps such as vsco cams, tell me, which photo doesn’t look like its taken from a dslr?

Torrent
And we have Andriod users boosting about the latest movie that they have torrented. Yes, Android users can boast because only they have full access. Even though Apple has recently allowed their users to download movies via Torrent through this app called “Blue Downloader”, you’ll have to pay for the app. Not to mention that there is a risk that the app will be taken down in the future.  If you’re a couch potato, or you travel around on the trains with your eyes glued to your screen on the latest movie, you’ll probably be better off going for Android phones.

Interface
You always hear Apple complaining how complicated the Andriod interface is. Somehow, there are just too many apps and its so hard to navigate around. The interface just kind of put them off.

Quantity
Somehow, your Andriod friends always have new phones to show you now and then. A few months back, it was the s6, and now, its s7. And probably a few days later, they will start flaunting about their S7 edge. It depends on your perspective, but for those who changes their phone once every two years, they’ll probably be glad that their flagship model won’t become an obsolete one in a couple of months.

Customisation
You’ve heard about Apple users changing their phone covers, from Hello Kitty to Badman and then to Superman, and you’ll hear the Android users complaining about how boring Apple phones are, where the UI is “locked in”. Android offers much more freedom, allowing Android users to change things like the look and feel of different UI down to the keyboard. Of course, it’s kind of ironic that most Android users opt to use apps to change the look of their UI to look like the latest Apple UI.
