It has come to my attention that many of my friends use iPhones, and I'm confused as to why they do so. I mean, there are at least a million reasons why almost any Android-powered device is better, but I guess I'll just list a few of the most convincing.
1. The Cost
Recommended for you
You can easily find a good Android smartphone for anywhere from fifty dollars to 250 dollars for a cheap, economical option.
2. Notifications
With the newest version of Android, notifications have a whole new look, and more functionality. They also seamlessly integrate with any app, and can be customized if you know what you're doing.
3. Multi window
This is one of my favorite features of Android 7.0. It allows me to streamline my working experience, and it allows me to get more stuff done.
4. Material Design
In the newer versions of Android, a new design language was adopted: Material Design. This applies a very minimalist feel to the apps you use, ans creates a universal way of understanding how to use Android.
5. Custom Launchers
With a cutsom launcher you can make your home screen and app drawers yours, and always feel at ease when using your phone. iOS limits you to what Apple wants you to have and nothing else.
6. Open Source
Android has been a free and open source operating system for almost its entire existence. That's what helps make it great. It allows people who use it to fix their own problems with it, and add new features. It also makes it harder to hack.
7. Better processors
With Android phones, you have the potential for better processors, and thus better speeds. With Apple phones, you have only one choice of processor, and there are better processors out there to be found n Android phones.
8. Cameras
A lot of Android phones have vastly superior cameras to any iPhone, and some of them can even record in 4k with a high bitrate.
9. Durability
If you want a phone that won't break, Android has you covered again. The new Droid Turbo 2 is perhaps the most durable phone on the market right now, and the iPhone doesn't even come close in that regard,
10. OK Google
OK Google beats out Siri any-day. It has full access to my Google account, so I don't need to fill it in on my interests and habits. It also pulls up a list of cool stuff that I like to read and keeps me active on the internet.
11. Custom ROMs
CyanogenMod and its brethren breathe new life into Android and allow you to have custom settings, endless themes, and even more options for using your phone. These ROMs are for power-users only though, and can take a lot of expertise to set up.
