With the heat from apples new release of iphone 6 and iOS 8 yet to dissipate. It looks like attention has slightly shifted to the iphone and its OS. With quite some really smart innovations preswent in the iphone 6 and 6plus, such ac the near field communication technology. We can see that the race for the smart phone with better functionalioties is still open.
Well, from a little yet critical look at both competing sides of the smart phone businees, I still can see some little abilities and functions available on the android, not yet adopted by iphone. I don't know why. Okay, lets roll...
BATTERY FLEXIBILITY: Almos all android phones can have their batteries removed anytime, and replaced with a spare one. The back cover of iphones can even be removed. And so if you've got a low power, and there are no wall sockets or power banks around, then...
EXPANDABLE STORAGE: On most android phones, you've got the option of increasing your phones memory with an SD card. You could even get a low grade android phone and upgrade, witha n SD card. And sure, SD cards are getting cheap these days.
ANDROID'S GOT A NICE DROP DOWN MENU: On android, a single downward swipe of your screen brings you a customizable menu that makes available a collection of emergency options. Galaxy S4 and S5 have got not lesser than 18 shortcuts. Including power save, WiFi, hotspot and blutooth shortcuts. The iphone offers you a swipe-up menu with just aboput ten or so shortcuts. I don't even think the menu on iphone is customizable
CHARGE YOUR ANDROID PHONES WITH ANY USB MINI CABLE: Don't dream of obtaining this on iphone. Iphon has got its own special charger lightning which is licenced by the producer.
ADD WIDGETS TO YOUR ANDROID HOME SCREEN: These are just little windoes that enable you monitor and control android apps, without even opening them. Just imagine having an app running and its details being shown on a little yet visibly lage window, and can be moved around or even pasted on your home screen as short cut. This function is only available on the latest iOS. But they can't be customized or moved around.
OPEN MULTIPLE WINDOWS AT ONCE ON ANDROID: On some phones thet offre a little improvement from the original google android, you can open and manage multiple apps at once. On galaxy S series for example, you could open and run multiple apps at once. Even resizing and moving them around. The screen shot below proves that.
EASILY CUSTOMIZABLE: Most peole who prefare android, do so due to its easily customizable features. Starting from the arrangement of your app's icons on the home screen, an app like aviate or buzz launcher could be used to arrange icons alphabetically or however you want it. Well, right from time, iOS hasn't changed so much, just the usual boring grid of icons.
Hey iphone still got some great features, not on android so check out for a more nice posts on this topic.
