Iphone Vs Android

1)So you know what i'm reallin the mood for right about now a sack load of seethe and fanboy rage spurting at my face like some sort of ball shriveling bakaki storm so yeah let's do this thing let's do an iphone versus android face off fresh for 2022 to see which kind of smartphone might be best for you right now the good news is even if you've used nothing but apple or android for years and years now you no longer need to feel tied down it's easier than ever in 2022 

2)To swap from one platform to the other helped along considerably by the fact that the apps you use on one will almost certainly be available on the other two the big exceptions to this rule are of course mostly on apple's side so if you find that your mates and your family mostly use the likes of facetime and imessage to stay in touch then you're probably going to want to stick with ios on the other hand if your inner circle tends to use services like whatsapp and telegram these can be installed on either ios or android and they work fine between the two platforms albeit with a really annoying backup workaround so you don't lose a lifetime of messages and all those hilarious memes so enough banging on which is best for you an iphone or one of them android jobbies well here's my quick 10 minute versus guide and for more on the latest and greatest tech please do poke subscribe ending that notifications bell so first up devices if you want a flagship phone and you've got the cash to back that up well apple's offerings are now more diverse than ever before as well as the

3)Standard iphone model you've also got the pro and the pro max options which boasts an upgraded 120 hertz display as well as improved camera tech with a bonus telephoto sensor the pro max is an absolute whopper if you happen to like them big or alternatively you've got the iphone mini which is shock surprise a more dinky version and those are basically your options nice and simple so you may decide in fact it's going to be how much cash you've got to spend whether you like them big or small and whether you want that upgraded camera tech on the flip side with android you've got almost too much choice you've got your google pixels of course then you've got your samsung's your oppos your realmes your xiaomi's a ton of stuff this diversity means you'll definitely need to do a lot more research before you pick your blower possibly by watching shag loads of texpert videos hip hip hooray but it also means you can pick a handset that is ideal for you want a headphone jack or expandable storage or dedicated gaming features well none of the current apple lineup will do the job but you'll find a bug a load of android options that work you can even bag yourself a phone that folds in half if you really fancy it now say you've got considerably

4)Less cash to spend on your new smartphones around three to four hundred pounds well with android you've still got bugger lords of choice you've got the pixel four in five here the six here lingard just on the horizon samsung's just spaffed out a couple of new ones as well including the a53 5g which i just recently reviewed you've got the oneplus norse 2 and the nord ce2 you've got offerings from xiaomi realme oppo again all of the big manufacturers with apple well you've basically either got to buy an old one and i'm talking about a really old one because they tend to hold their value remarkably well otherwise you settle for the iphone se 2022 and if you've seen my one month review you'll know that that's not a particularly great option either so basically your choices are similar to get poked in the eye or get kicked in the and if even three or four hundred quid is out of your budget well you've got no choiceat all you'll need to go android in 2022

5)Android blows can go for as little as a hundred quid or under although you will likely have to put up with slightly judging performance some crappy cameras and other issues next up customization android phones can be customized with your launcher of choice which can completely switch up the look and feel of that software some apple die-hards point to the simplicity of using iphones as an advantage but many androids do come with a built-in simple mode and some freely available launchers fulfill a similar purpose making them ideal for older or younger users alternatively you could go for a more complex option or something that streamlines the ui to save you time whatever you fancy really as far as customization goes here on the iphone well you can change up the wallpaper and uh android also allows you to install apps from outside of the main google play store by downloading apk files if you so desire on the flip side however because

6)Apple keeps such a stranglehold over its app ecosystem you're less likely to install something dodgy it's not possible but it's a lot less likely so next up support and apple absolutely walks this round because apple has direct control over all of the ios hardware as well as the software it means it can keep all of its devices updated in a timely manner for years post launch of course occasionally apple doesn't really seem to bother actually testing its updates before rolling them out you may find that an update fixes a few bugs then also completely kills your notifications or just stops you from using the internet on android if you want strong support your best bet is google pixel phones are generally supported for three to four years with os and security updates although some manufacturers like samsung nokia and oneplus are also pretty good in this area offering a similar support window however many other manufacturers like motorola xiaomi and realme generally tend to only offer a couple of years of updates for all of their smartphones mostly because they release so bloody many and even then the security patches may be sporadic at best oh and i'm still reviewing smartphones in april 2022 they come with android 11 slapped on them instead of android 12 despite the fact that version 12 has been around for like six ruddy months already and i mean i love nostalgia as much as the next bold youtube but seriously come on sort it out and when we're talking support we also have to mention physical stores apple has high street stores up and down the country and yeah in some regions of course maybe a bit of a further trek than you have to go down here in london but at least they offer that physical support and go speak to someone face to face if needed on the android side of things well samsung's got a handful of stores scattered about the place and that's pretty much it now because it's such a hot topic let's also touch on cameras and the latest apple flagships feature very good camera sensors that can capture crisp detailed and natural looking picks almost any time of day or night that said the pixel 6 phones are better across a range of scenarios especially in low light versus those premium priced apples and it's the same story with a handful of other android rivals as well the likes of the oppo f5x5 series with the mara silicon npu stuffed in there you got the samsung galaxy s22 ultra all capable of taking better photo and video in low light environments especially when it comes to the color reproduction but this should not be a deal breaker by any means iphones will serve anyone really well unless you absolutely have to have dedicated pro controls in which case yeah go android as for mid-range options well the iphone se 2022 features woefully outdated optics compared with the likes of the pixel a series the oneplus note 2 the realme 9 pro plus and dozens of other affordable androids so if your budget is limited and you value that camera performance i would certainly see it go android if you can next up security and you've got some really smart security features built into both ios and android these days including lots of great privacy features to help you track exactly what your apps are up to at any given moment to actually unlock your devices while iphones come with face and lock alone or in the case of the se 2022 just the fingerprint sensor android smartphones almost always come with both options apart from the pixel phones which for now use fingerprint sensors alone you don't have that face recognition built in but there's lots of rumors that that will be introduced with the next series of pixel phones that said the face and lock option can be a bit ropey on android phones and easily fooled by something like a photograph while iphones are much harder to trick and overall when it comes to security i think apple steals the victory here because not only does it have that closed eco system but also has the more regular security updates versus a lot of android smartphones now android may have creamed victory in more rounds so far versus those iphones but apple does offer up a number of other advantages over its big rivals so for one you've got to consider inter-device connectivity are you rich enough to own macbooks and ipads and lots of other apple gear well in that case you're probably best off going with an iphone is that they'll just communicate more nicely there's also expandability the latest premium priced iphones offer mag safe expansion so basically you can slap a magsafe accessory onto the back end and boost your battery life or what have you and that sort of modular functionality you won't find in any android smartphones certainly none that have been released recently anyway i also briefly mentioned resale value earlier those apple iphones tend to hold their value really bloody well which is really annoying when you want to buy one for a bit cheaper but it's good news if you've already got one and you want to sell it on or trade it in for a newer model because it means you'll get a decent bit of cash there's also apple tv plus of course if you like your baseball that most exciting and dynamic of sports then there's other things to consider like do you prefer siri or the google assistant personally i prefer the google assistant i think it's got better functionality better cross service support but of course that's my personal opinion some people might prefer siri because it's generally simpler and also little things like where you actually live will play a part in your decision as well so first if you live in america you'll get more out of your iphone than if you live here in blighty where a lot of the services still feel kind of half baked now the maps app for instanc especially when you're using it as a sat nav just does not feel properly implemented at all here in the uk even in london i find that you know i'm only alerted to a traffic camera as i'm actually driving past the bugger which is really helpful and it doesn't of me alternative routes whenever the roads are bollocksed up with loads of traffic so there you have it that's my full roundup right now of what's best for you apple or android in 2022 in uh in just 10 minutes and uh in fact by my reckoning it's just under nine minutes so i've got time to go crack open a tinny and a pack of pork scratches and just chill for a bit and as you can see of course there is no outright victor there's no easy answer what might be perfect for one person might be absolutely dreadful for another it all comes down to personal preference and your own personal circumstances but now the big question which do you prefer iphone or android be great to hear your thoughts down in the comments below please try and limit the number of four letter words you hurl at my face though got lots more androids and no doubt some iphones to review later in 2022
