Apple vs. Mechanic foods

In cellphone market, so many cellphones are released with new featuring. Operating System (OS) in cellphone is also various like iOS, Android, Windows Mobile, etc. In this writing, I would like to compare between the biggest OS, iOS and Android, so people can notice that what is different between these two OS. This information will be helpful when people buy a new cellphone.

First, OS itself is difference. Thinking about a pencil and a pen is easy to understand. Both OS are used in cellphone to run it. However, both OS are based by different purpose. For iOS, it is developed for users to use easily. People always use cellphone in the same way. There are no difficulties from any differences. On the other hand, it limited user’s customizing. For example, iPhone users can’t customize their ringtone. It is not impossible thing, but it is too complicated. For Android, it forces to users to customize their cellphone themselves. Users might feel stress especially when they buy a cellphone and try to use it. However, Android is opened widely, so users can customize their cellphone. There is no limit if users have some abilities to customize it. If you more consider about customizing your cellphone, I recommend buying Android cellphone.

Second, a design of cellphones is different. For iOS, it is used for Apple products only such as iPhone, Mac, iPad, etc. These products are developed by one specific company. For sure, Apple’s products are well made with a good design, better technologies, etc., but users have no choice if they want to use iOS in other electronic machines. For Android, however, it is used for various products. Google, the developer of Android, open their source of Android, and they support their third-party development companies. In result, many companies use Android in their products, so users have many options to select a product in different models. It can be a positive feature, but it can be also a negative feature because the comparison target is too wide. If you are looking a cellphone to use easily, I recommend Apple products.

Third, an application market is different. For iOS, a company uses App Store to buy applications. For Android, a company uses Google Play to buy applications. Both markets are good, but the problem is that they are separate markets, so they can’t share buying history. For example, a user bought a $10 application in App Store for his or her cellphone. If he or she wants to use this application in another device other than iOS, he or she needs to pay twice. This compatibility makes many problems, especially today’s users because they use several electronic devices but the OS is different. They have a limit when they buy other electronic devices.

Two OS have different pros and cons. People can’t specify which OS is better. However, these OS are totally different to use. It effects to user’s usage tendency. Therefore, Users need to consider what do they want specific details, and which OS is more suitable for them. It is highly subjective, so users need their own thinking.
