and run tools except developed by apple. But in android it’s all open, we can
install and run any tools may or may not be related to Google.
¢ Battery Life:
In
iPhone, battery life seems to be good than android but batteries in iPhone
can’t be replaced while it can be done easily in android.
¢ Interface:
The
Apple screen is larger than most of the android screens, meaning navigation and
keyboard typing are easier. Android suggests a number of auto-corrections for
misspelled words, while iPhone suggests only once.
¢ Hardware:
The
iPhone does not support the addition of an SD card for increased storage, while
most Android models do. The Android operating system comes packaged with a wide
variety of different hardware. The iPhone is only manufactured by one company,
giving users no choice over the number and level of features on their phone.
¢ Applications:
All
applications in the Apple Store must go through an Apple approvals process that
has been the center of controversy. Android applications need not go through an
approvals process.
