People love to say Apple products, "just work." It’s certainly true that the iOS interface is easy to use. That said, here’s how Apple and Android phones match up on 14 key aspects of the smartphone experience. You can't compare these two phone systems without recognizing the hardware differences. So, when I weigh this choice, I consider the operating system while accounting for the differences between phone models. A better current comparison would be the brand new Samsung Galaxy S22 or the Google Pixel 6 line. There is such an enormous difference between Android smartphone models that comparing the iPhone 13 with, say, an excellent budget Android smartphone, such as 2020's Moto G Power, is like comparing apples (ahem) and oranges. With Android phones, it's a different story. With iPhones, the operating system and hardware are tied at the hip. And to make matters more complicated, comparing operating systems alone doesn't tell you much. The simple truth - tribe allegiance and marketing genius aside - is that iPhones running iOS and smartphones running the Android OS both have good and bad points. If you want to make a logical choice between an iPhone and an Android phone - based on the technical specs - I have to start by saying there is no one right answer. That’s not choosing a piece of technology, it’s choosing a tribe. Or that your friend in IT swears the other guy is a dolt and her Android phone is the best of the best. I don't care that your favorite tech expert says only an idiot would buy an iPhone.
