For a long time, iPhone was a synonym for smartphone. The advance of Android, however, has brought a variety of devices to market, and many owe nothing to Apple's iconic device. What's more, it has never been so beneficial to switch from iOS to Android. We have gathered here eleven reasons for the exchange.
Price
Let's just let the numbers speak for themselves: the 64 Giga iPhone 5S is much more expensive than the high end Android models, which have at least the same capacity. The Galaxy S4, for example, costs just over $ 2,000 in Submarino, and many consider it one of the best Android smartphones ever made. The 5S can reach up to $ 2,900 at the Apple store.
Customization
With Android you can change and customize your smartphone. From wallpaper, homescreen and lock screen app cones, to alternate widgets and keyboards like Swype or Swiftkey, and reaching (at least for mere mortals) to the launcher. You can even make it look like an iPhone. Here you will find some cool launchers.
Diversity
What has been said about software is also true for hardware. While the iPhone user can choose from only 3 devices, there are hundreds of smartphones running on Android – from devices high end with 5 inches of screen at very cheap models for beginners. true, many models mid range They do not represent competition for an iPhone. This year, however, many Android devices have been launched, which not only because of their size make the mother phone look tiny.
Samsung Galaxy S4, HTC One, Sony Xperia Z and LG G2
For example, here: all four are top models with exciting design and elaborate software. The HTC One has won high praise for its first class design; Galaxy S4 is considered the best Android device in the sum of its features; Sony's Xperia Z and Z1, as well as LG's G2 also have striking individual qualities (see comparison of Z1 and G2). Finally we have the Huawei Ascend P6, which was very inspired (at best) in Apple's design.
Big screens
As an iPhone user, you can freely choose your screen size – as long as it is between 3.5 and 4 inches. In the case of Android smartphones there are almost no limits. From small 4-inch screens to monsters like the Xperia Z Ultra: there are sizes to suit all tastes and needs. And anyone who has ever used a smartphone with a 4.5-inch screen or larger has a hard time getting used to the size of the iPhone.
NFC
NFC – Near Field Communication – A data transfer system that takes place from the approximation of two devices or objects that offer the same technology. It has not yet established itself convincingly in the country, but potential exists. The best Android smartphones come with a factory NFC chip, which Apple has not yet done.
Google services
Yes, Big G has been present (and in some cases essential) in many aspects of our lives: contacts and calendar, email and browser, Google Drive and Google Docs, Google Play and Google+, Google Maps and Google Now, YouTube, etc. , etc. With an Android device you can use Google services optimally, and sync your devices with your account data.
