Hi guys, I read everywhere that according to a lot of people Android with the One UI is the best operating system for phones on the planet and is infinitely better than iOS for countless reasons. I ask a question to those who have full knowledge of the facts because they use the two systems (iOS 17 & One UI 6) on a daily basis, thus knowing them in the smallest detail of real use: why is the One UI indisputably superior to the iPhone, which therefore does not have a shred of sense compared to Galaxy? What are the real-world details that make the iPhone a significantly poorer product than the Galaxy? Thanks to those who will want to answer!
I’ve found it infinitely more difficult to compose and send a text message on android. It seems to have more steps to complete than iOS does which, like why?
iOS is designed to be intuitive so you’ve hit the nail on the head by drawing conclusions to children because quite literally everyone is able to use it with ease. Isn’t that what we all want though? Three steps instead of seven to complete the same task?
The highly restricted operating system is its biggest advantage funnily enough. The iOS App Store filters out malicious apps, the google play store wants to do the same but fails on a large scale putting its users at greater risk. It’s quite a significant difference.
Both operating systems have pros and cons, both are geared toward different people but we’ll always have users of both that will fight tooth and nail to claim supremacy 🤷🏻♂️
It’s just as easy to send a text on Android as on iOS, you just type what you want and hit send.
Android and iOS are equally easy to use.
iOS being locked down has it’s pros and cons, and while you’re less likely to get a virus on iPhones, I prefer being able to side load a bunch of apps as well as not being locked down to one app store, also I’ve never gotten a virus on my android since I don’t download sketchy apps.
sideloading is coming to ios in 2024 tho
By “designed for children” I meant that they were very basic and not necessarily easy to use (compared to Windows and Android in my opinion). I have an iPad and I use a Mac once a week for classes. I consider myself pretty tech savvy and I find iOs quite counterintuitive overall.
