Title: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: austins on July 14, 2013, 12:51:25 PM Before I buy a Smartphone or iPhone I want to know if more people own a smartphone than iPhone or the other way round.As I want to play online games and I was looking at ratings of games.

Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: FirstAscent on July 14, 2013, 08:39:12 PM The iPhone is for people who aren't into computers for computer's sake, but are into computers for productivity. The Android is for people who are into computers for the sake of experimenting with computers.
The iPhone is for people who want quality apps that do things useful in a wide variety of niche applications. The Android is for people who want junky apps that aren't polished, but they can point to the app and say: "Look, we have an app too, and we don't have to abide by Apple's rules." For the record, I have an Android. Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: Metatron on July 15, 2013, 01:49:15 PM It's definitely Android imo!
There are sooooo many reasons, to name a couple: software-wise: latest iOS ripped MOST of Android's features that's been with Android since its infancy; hardware-wise: most of the iPhone's components are made by Android producers eg. http://news.cnet.com/8301-13579_3-57593692-37/apple-reportedly-signs-samsung-for-next-gen-iphone-chips/?part=rss&subj=news&tag=title (http://news.cnet.com/8301-13579_3-57593692-37/apple-reportedly-signs-samsung-for-next-gen-iphone-chips/?part=rss&subj=news&tag=title) But, it obviously depends on an individuals 'taste' ;) Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone?

Post by: CoinsForTech on July 16, 2013, 09:08:25 AM I would say at this point Android is winning, however that doesn't necessarily mean that an Android phone is for you.
I am an avid Android user and love my Nexus 4, though many of my friends prefer the look and feel of iOS. Really just comes down to personal choice. AFAIK Apple does not allow Bitcoin apps in their appstore so that may make a difference ;) Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone?

Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: Mike Christ on July 16, 2013, 01:23:29 PM The most important thing for me is not the brand, but whether it is jailbroken or not. Until you unlock your phone you don't really own it. What I don't understand is why cell phone companies feel an absolute desire to completely or partially control what it is you do with the device you paid good money for. There seems to be no phones coming out today which are completely open, especially considering Android which has no vanilla, but some tricked-up bloatware-infested version of it on whatever brand it's being sold by. I was eyeballing the Nexus recently, which supposedly is supposed to run the purest form of Android of all smartphones, but not even it is safe from Google branding, and there's certain Google-influenced features you simply cannot get rid of (without rooting, I suppose.) One would figure there would be a market for this kind of thing, but I can't seem to find these fabled smartphones with clean OSes out of the box. Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone?

Since they updated to 4.2 the UI is super smooth Android system doesn't have as strict control over the behaviour of core features such as (the many different) launchers and multitasking. A badly designed app has never been able to crash of freeze the iOS system and it's GUI on my (now sold) iPhone or iPad. On my current android phone, there has never been a case where an application freeze wouldn't cause a system crash or system freeze for prolonged period. tl:dr android system fails to control badly behaving apps. This has to do with the above, but android phones also have generally worse batterylife. Where iOS aggressively kills background apps, android allows them to run. Android is a general OS, where iOS is specifically designed and optimized for it's hardware. Android is java. And my most hated thing about it is the lack of simplity. iOS has the highest user satisfaction because it's so simple. Android used to be simplier, but lately it has become a total mess.

Big apps are killed on Android but made my iPhone unusable even after manually killing them. My i5's battery literally died 6months after first use (went from 21h to 2h). I never understood how Apple put all the settings... Half in the app, half in the settings, half in settings>app. I had an iPhone 5 and now a Nexus 4. I'd never come back.

That said, the camera on the iPhone is superior by leaps and bounds to any Android phone, so if pictures with your phone are important to you, go with the iPhone. There's lot of differences between Android phones, though... One phone is not like another and some suck really bad and others are full of awesome, so you have to be careful which you chose.

Once again I disagree. a Jailbroken iPhone can be as versatile as any Android. That being said, we are talking about a Phone!!! What can you do with Android that you can't do with iOS and we are talking productivity wise. I want to make phone calls, I want to check email, I want to share my mobile data plan with other devices...etc. The biggest advantage iOS has over Android is the ecosystem. First of all, Android does not have a decent Laptop (ChromeOS is a joke and that's it), with iOS you have full integration with OSX so you have a great ecosystem (MacBook, iMac, iPad, iPhone) and they all share great features together, like iCloud, PhotoStream, iTunes. Backing up an iPhone and restoring all the contacts/Photos/calendars/setting is a breeze on the iPhone. Can you say the same thing about Android? doubtful. Taking a picture on the iPhone automatically uploads it on photostream to all your iOS/OSX devices. Can you do that with Android NATIVELY? NO! As a mobile OS, iOS is leap years more advanced and productivity wise what you do with iOS would take three times more to do with Android. Even Windows is creating a better ecosystem with Windows 8(.1) and the tablets/phones available for it. I dont need a phone that I can do my programming on it, that's what laptops/pc are for. I need a phone that is FAST, allows me to do the basics such as email/photos/tethering and maybe a few other basic things. Yes, every now and then I can RDP to a windows client or ssh to a linux/unix from my phone, is that convenient? sure, in an emergency, but I have to be crazy to do it on a daily basis. I don't even want to get into the business model from one vs the other because Android clearly loses that battle also. Google play is shit compared to iTunes/App Store. Want to talk fragmentation? check the versions of Android out there compared to iOS... it's a developer's nightmare for android. Sure, this argument reminds me of Linux vs Windows back in the early 90's with the difference that Windows has always had an overwhelming advantage in market share over Linux and in Android vs iOS this isn't the case. BTW Inaba, I'm an IT Professional and I work for a Fortune 50 company, not a bunch of borderline scammers with bad project management skills and even worst PR skills. Maybe the use of android is making you less productive? Get an iPhone, you might be able to work more efficiently. Many customers would appreciate it! Your entire argument is invalided with one simple argument: You can't change the keyboard on IOS and the Apple stock keyboard is the biggest piece of shit ever. You can't be productive with that piece of shit getting in your way constantly. BTW - don't hold up iTunes as some advantage of the Apple ecosystem. It's one of it's biggest downfalls. iTunes is a steaming pile of junk on Windows (you know, 90% of the market?) and wrecks everything it touches. I've never met a single person that likes iTunes on the Windows platform and everyone complains about it. The fact that you're forced to use iTunes to manage your IOS device is a negative, not a positive. On top of that, the Google ecosystem is far, far more robust and interconnected than the Apple walled garden. How's that viewing and downloading of PDFs working out for you in mail? heh. Also, how's the association of various file types with certain apps working out? Oh, it's not? Sorry to hear that, I guess you're stuck with the junk Apple forces you to use, instead of using an app that actually works for the content you want to work with. Enjoy your home screen with it's shaky, jittery little ugly icons. Too bad you can't customize it and you're forced to have a grid of crappy looking icons as opposed to useful widgets.

You've only named very generic general purpose apps. When you start delving into very specific niche disciplines, you'll find a very limited assortment of quality apps on Android vs Apple. Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: Inaba on July 17, 2013, 05:06:06 AM Can you name an app that's useful that doesn't have a counterpart in Android that functions just as well if not better? I'm honestly curious if there is one.. what killer iPhone app exists that doesn't exist in Android?
I can name one in Android... as I said above, it's a keyboard. Simple, obvious, yet Apple doesn't allow it. Lets not even discuss the disgraceful charging/USB situation on IOS. Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: FirstAscent on July 17, 2013, 05:22:01 AM Maybe Google, say, cinematography app, and take a look at the results.
Or perhaps, take any specific discipline or field, where we will denote the specific field as X, and do two Google searches, such as: X app iphone X app android Compare the number of search results. Now, factor in the fact that iPhone apps must be approved for quality, and Android apps can be incomplete buggy pieces of shit. Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: Inaba on July 17, 2013, 05:24:29 AM I'm asking your for specific apps, not general categories. We can argue until the cows come home about general categories. Name an app.
The number of search results on Google is not indicative of the availability of an app on either platform. Heck, if that's the case: Google: Android: About 2,830,000,000 results (0.25 seconds) IOS: About 611,000,000 results (0.27 seconds) Android wins by a landslide, I guess this debate is over.

I'm honestly curious if there is one.. what killer iPhone app exists that doesn't exist in Android? Not exactly relevant, since I'm running jailbroken iOS, but there's a thing called applocker. Something that prevents chosen apps from being used unless you know the code to open them. This feature works perfectly on iPhones and iPads without causing any trouble to the system.A dozen applockers exist for android, but almost every single one of them needs suspiscious permissions. The open source android market f-droid or something has a more trustworthy app for this, but my phone went nuts after installing it. Every app, including the launcher and other important parts of the OS itself slowed down. Like every time something is done the locker app comes in the way. Without this app, no keeping bitcoins on my cellphone. For those who say that a jailbroken iPhone can do the same things than an Android, did you ever even try to install python? A good file browser?

Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: RoadToHell on July 17, 2013, 06:22:13 PM Quote Who's winning Android or iPhone? What do you mean by "winning?" As long as Apple insists on controlling the entire market (hardware, software, music, movies, etc.) they will never catch Android in market share. But that is probably okay with Apple. The development of this "rivalry" is interesting in that the setup parallels the early competition between Mac's and PC's. Apple insisted on controlling all of the hardware and software market for the Mac. IBM, on the other hand, opened up its architecture and allowed anyone to make hardware or software for their machines. Apple had a great head start in this market but the PC market evolved into something that Apple couldn't match. And once the Intel/Microsoft machine started rolling it was all over as far as significant market share is concerned. Apple continued to survive, but just barely. Apple appears to have learned from the PC battles. They have a greater head start with the iPhone than they did with the Mac. And they opened up the software market to make it easier for independent developers to bring products along. However they are still one company trying to match technological innovations of many other companies. The volatility of the market is extreme. I highly doubt that the phone market will remain clearly defined like the PC market was for 20 years. Apple cannot catch Android in this environment, but they can certainly lose tremendous ground under the right circumstances. Will Samsung/Google be the iPhone's Intel/Microsoft? The iPod brought Apple back as a major player in consumer devices and positioned them very well for the iPhone. The phone as we know it (I mean smart phone) however is likely to transition to something else in a relatively short number of years. The iWatch and Google Glass are two possible routes. I don't see Apple being able to match all of the possibilities that other companies are bringing to market. Of course Android probably isn't the answer for all of them either. So, what do you mean by "winning?" Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: cryptoanarchist on July 17, 2013, 07:37:53 PM We're not talking about IOS vs. Androids. Change your search to iPhone app and Android app. Anyway: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/kessler/id529307947?mt=8&ls=1 Huh... https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ui.LapseItPro&hl=en https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.tina.time_lapse&hl=en But maybe that's not what that Kessler app does... from a cursory glance, it looks like a trivial app to create, which is probably why no one has ever bothered to create it... there's no demand. There's never going to be high demand for niche apps. And no, your suggestions don't calculate data for Kessler Omega motor settings. Anyway, your statements about my first hand knowledge about what I'm describing are useless and irrelevant to the discussion. Just because you want it one way doesn't change the reality of an individual's experiences with special niche apps, which often interface with other manufacturer's products. Please take your Android centric motivations to pick arguments and go argue with someone who cares. It's a fact that your arguments don't mean anything to first hand experiences others have had. On the other hand, if you have something useful to say about your own experiences relating to this discussion, rather than your childish desire to be an argumentative fucktwit, by all means, there's no better time to begin than now. And I do mean fucktwit in the most sincere manner, as your avatar picture brings back unpleasant memories of you in the past, when you behaved the same way. Ahh too bad you're unable to hold a reasonable debate without devolving into personal attacks so quickly. I guess the debate is over, sorry about your loss. LOL...I've had FirstAscent on ignore for awhile now. This reminds me why. Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: Inaba on July 17, 2013, 09:26:26 PM Interesting. Yeah, arguing from a position of facts vs FirstAgents position of anecdotes is not exactly a debate. It makes it kind of pointless.
Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: RoadToHell on July 17, 2013, 10:50:56 PM Quote Who's winning Android or iPhone? What do you mean by "winning?" As long as Apple insists on controlling the entire market (hardware, software, music, movies, etc.) they will never catch Android in market share. But that is probably okay with Apple. The development of this "rivalry" is interesting in that the setup parallels the early competition between Mac's and PC's. Apple insisted on controlling all of the hardware and software market for the Mac. IBM, on the other hand, opened up its architecture and allowed anyone to make hardware or software for their machines. Apple had a great head start in this market but the PC market evolved into something that Apple couldn't match. And once the Intel/Microsoft machine started rolling it was all over as far as significant market share is concerned. Apple continued to survive, but just barely. Apple appears to have learned from the PC battles. They have a greater head start with the iPhone than they did with the Mac. And they opened up the software market to make it easier for independent developers to bring products along. However they are still one company trying to match technological innovations of many other companies. The volatility of the market is extreme. I highly doubt that the phone market will remain clearly defined like the PC market was for 20 years. Apple cannot catch Android in this environment, but they can certainly lose tremendous ground under the right circumstances. Will Samsung/Google be the iPhone's Intel/Microsoft? The iPod brought Apple back as a major player in consumer devices and positioned them very well for the iPhone. The phone as we know it (I mean smart phone) however is likely to transition to something else in a relatively short number of years. The iWatch and Google Glass are two possible routes. I don't see Apple being able to match all of the possibilities that other companies are bringing to market. Of course Android probably isn't the answer for all of them either. So, what do you mean by "winning?" You seem to fail to understand some concepts that Apple clearly states every time they can. Apple products in Jobs era were designed for people who would appreciate the quality and the design not just hardware but software. Their design process is extremely refined and they were focused on those people who would embrace those concepts. With Tim Cook, the company is trying to captivate a bigger market now, although I'm not sure is the right approach. Google glass is a piece of crap, but it's a prototype that will serve it's purpose as new wearable technologies develop. Tim Cook already said it, who would wear glasses willingly? On the other hand, a Watch makes much more sense.That being said, Google Glass is necessary for the evolution of the technologies, but at $1,500 I find hard to believe people will be running to the stores to get one, and Inaba will most likely try to type with it and will discard it right away. In short, Apple doesn't need to catch up with other companies, it's the other companies that played catch up with Apple (iPod...? iPhone?, iPad) or, in other words, the MP3 player which Apple made so popular... the smartphone that Apple pretty much revolutionized the way phones work, and the Tablet... Was Apple the first one in any of those fields? certainly not, but it was the first one to get it right and that's undeniable! The same will happen in the future, with companies releasing crappy things (NFC anyone) and Apple waiting until the technology and infrastructure is mature and ready to deploy a correct implementation. The quality of Google glass, iWatch, or any other probing technology device is not germane to my statement. Google glass and iWatch were just examples of new devices that are being experimented with. My point is that the smart phone won't be a massive force for nearly as long as PCs were because technology is evolving much more rapidly now. Some company will hit a home run with some device. It may be Apple and it may be someone else. However Apple is again pitting itself against the world. They will not be able to match all of the technological innovations that come from everywhere. They will need to pick one or two paths and commit immense resources to those paths. Other companies will need to do the same thing. However if one of the Android companies make bad decisions and go bankrupt, it doesn't bring down Android. Where as iPhone is anchored to just one company. If Apple makes a few bad moves they are done. So, as you pointed out, since they can't afford to jump on risky technology they wait on it. Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone?

Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: Kluge on July 17, 2013, 11:02:13 PM I'll very quietly suggest ditching the idea that phones can play engaging games, as they're almost always poorly-made time-wasters. Engaging phone games are very few and far between. I'd honestly suggest a Windows tablet (uhh, no, not Win8 RT). Phones are already migrating to VOIP, and unless you live in the middle of nowhere (in which case, a cell phone with monthly charge is probably a shit proposition, anyway), there are generally free hotspots all over town where you can use GVoice. Your workplace probably has one available, at least to employees. It doesn't take much to emulate the Android OS on Windows, and you can, of course, emulate many other game platforms on top of getting access to the huge Windows catalog of software. Get a cheap stand and compact keyboard/mouse solution (this "hybrid" from iogear (http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16823176018) is freakin' awesome) and you have a mobile PC. It costs a lot more upfront, but it'll actually be a competent, versatile piece of hardware with no contract.

I test android, windows 8 and I devices all day long on jquery mobile sites: win 8 rt with ie 10 blows, android is so fragmented that it's hard to keep up and imo a waste of money, iPhone and iPad win hands down. Now keep in mind that for some uses, for some people an android will better suite their needs, same goes for win 8 rt, but hands down for ease of use, applications and more, my money is on IOS.

With them I can manage files and watch movies on my external hard drive. Tbh I haven't used my laptop for anything else but bookkeeping ever since getting an iPad. :) [no longer related to your question jackjack] I agree that Apple is an idiot with their iTunes integration, but it's not like you need iTunes to use an iPad. I don't have iTunes and can't have it cause I'm running linux. Spotify syncs your music and dropbox/whatever syncs your pics. Videos need a jailbreak unless netflix suits your needs. :/ Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: ororch on December 15, 2017, 08:31:14 AM Of course android is better!

Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone?

Post by: DarkKnight68 on December 17, 2017, 05:24:50 PM If we are going to talk about the real advancements of technology, and who is winning based on those advancements, I believe that Android is winning because it proves that it is more capable of providing more advance technologies to humans and it can actually do everything that Apple can do. In fact, it is always better when it is compared to apple.
I think that iPhone is a trend not because of the technological features it offers but because of the emotional and moral belongingness it gives a person. Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone?

Iphone challange people to learn more about how to maximize the function of Smarthphone. The design is very cool and lux. The strenght of the phone is good enough (it felt down several times from my pocket but it's still okay as you don't break the LCD). The price is worthed with all of the benefits. Android is good but the system sometimes can't be work maximize. Iphone is the one of the best invention in the world! Thanks to Steve Jobs 🎉👏 Bravo! Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: agustiannor on December 25, 2017, 05:19:30 PM I think the android is more pretty superior than the iphone even though actually I own iphone users ;D , because android based on open source allows users to more freely use android. ;D
so android 65% and iphone 35% . Title: Re: Who's winning Android or iPhone? Post by: advbo on December 25, 2017, 05:30:29 PM i feels iphone the winner
