All smartphones have their advantages and disadvantages. If you’re looking to buy a new smartphone, you’ve got a huge decision to make. Chances are, you’ll probably end up choosing between the iPhone and Android operating system.
How do you know which one will be the correct choice for you? When it comes to the iPhone, there are 7 main advantages that the device holds over Android devices.
- USB type-c. The U in USB stands for universal. I should be able to charge my headphones, laptop, and any of my other technological devices with it. Why should iPhone be the exception?
- Charging. The base iPhone 11 comes with a 5w charger. The iPhone 11 Pro comes with an 18w charger. On the other hand, the Galaxy s10 comes with a 25w and the Oneplus 7pro with a 30w.
- 90hz displays. Going back to the iPhone’s 60hz feels archaic whenever I scroll.
- The notch. The iPhone is the one of the last flagship phone to have a sizable notch (pixel 4 is the other exception). Aesthetically speaking, I think most people would agree that the s10 and OP7P are more beautiful than the bunny-ears on the iPhone.
- The “back” button. Why oh why doesn’t the iPhone have a back button. Do they really expect me to play “find the back button” for every individual app? It’s the little things like that really detract from the overall experience.
- $$$Money. Flagship Androids frequently go on sale for hundreds of dollars off, but you’re lucky to get a 5% discount when buying an iPhone. Android phones are also cheaper to fix.
- Better displays. The galaxy s10/Note10 literally has the best smartphone display in the world. The images are sharper, the contrast is higher, and the colours are more colourful.
Iphones are good in their own right, but until Apple gives the iPhone a proper refresh (it’s had the same design for the last 3 generations), I’m sticking with Android.
