Why Android Sucks and Apple iPhone wins match everytime?

First of all I know that there are a lot of android users but most of them just buy it because its cheaper than Apple iPhone or they just need to flaunt their mobile.
If you ever used an Android mobile you must have noticed that Android mobiles slow down after few months of using which makes it hectic to use and you need to restore it to default to use it properly again with everything from starting.
I will be giving you some of the reason's why to say it sucks -

1. Staggered OS Distrbution

In most of the android devices their are different hardware, different custom

features, etc. which straight away shwos modifcation of Android OS by different companies. For example: HTC may have their signature version of Android featuring HTC Sense weaved into their interface, while the Galaxy S3 has a bunch of Samsung features pushed into their OS like "S voice" which is just a bad copy of Apple's Siri. And this causes different releases of updates for different Android OS mobiles because of which they delay updates for approx. 5 month from actual release date. Sure, there's custom ROMs, but they're not officially distributed by the carrier nor manufacturer, usually resulting in an unstable, unsupported OS.



As of today, A little less than 50% of Android users STILL have Android's Gingerbread OS! As of October 2nd 2012, 60% of iPad, iPhone and iPod Touch users have iOS 6 installed. After the release of Google Maps for iOS 6, that number has grown 29%. Take some lessons from Apple, Android (or should I say Google).

2. It's All About the Apps.

Android has setup a market but still the mark of a Best quality apps is still missing with which their comes a lot of other problems like incompatibility due to screen resolution, slow CPU, different screen sizes, Android version not supported, etc. It shows that the whole concept of iPhone with one mobile version at a time Wins because you're 100% guaranteed that the any app in AppStore WILL work with the phone, no lists, mods, or hacks required.


But for Android there are lists of compatiblity everywhere likewise my brother used Samsung Galaxy R which was a mobile with one the best specs in market at that time BUT still due to ROM differences it was unable to work with Opera, Asphalt & lots of games as well apps.
So far, zero problems with any app on my iPhone 4, not one single crash so far, even on jailbroken apps.

3. Usage of Adobe Flash


Adobe Flash which is never used in Apple devices because of slowing down processes always heads up in Android rather its being replaced by HTML 5 but maximum are still using Flash which gives a real slap to your processor.

4. Selection of an Android mobile, Difficult isn't it?



Do you want the HTC One X+, Droid X, Samsung S3, HTC Butterfly, etc. OR, do you want an iPhone 5? The main problem comes when you are willing to buy a smartphone with Android OS as you have a large variety which is good but a grand disadvantage because it means different mobile with different compatibility of Android versions & Apps. If you buy a low budget Android mobile you will not be satisfied and if you buy a high specification mobile than it might be able to give you a little peace but will cost you more.

We love our phones, why don’t you?

Some companies like Nike obviously don’t see that as a problem — they’ll just sync it with their computers, right? But for Android users it’s absolutely infuriating. There’s no reason, especially with the current flagship Android phones, that you can’t do everything you can with an iOS device on Android. In fact, you can probably do a lot more on Android than you can on iOS, due to the flexibility of the OS.
It sucks that Android doesn’t get everything. It sucks that manufacturers of accessories and apps don’t see Android as a viable platform sometimes. And it sucks that even when they do, Android users have to wait for developers to finish and push an iOS app out the door before they get a whiff of an Android version. Unfortunately, that doesn’t seem to be changing any time soon, and it’s through no real fault of Google, Android, or the legions of people buying Android phones, either. It’s just a fact of mobile life right now, but that doesn’t mean we have to like it.

Now tell us your views about Android and iOS.
