iOS is much better than Android

Pearlseattle · 01-07-2014, 05:20 PM

Apple/iOS is the capital of protectionism, and Google/Android is the one of the noseys (or "nosy[s]"? How do you define "showing too much curiosity about other people's affairs"?).
Waiting to see what happens with FirefoxOS/Ubuntu touch/Sailfish OS... .

Ubuntu will gladly sell you for a buck, Sailfish isn't going anywhere for a long time, and Mozilla exists anymore through Googles deep pockets.

I know I got the email that they were available and by the time I cleared it with the wife they were gone. I still don't see them as a major player any time in the next 5 years I truly hope they prove me wrong. Right now we the the garden and the snoopers

I have no preference for android nor iphone ISO, but I choose to use android because it's the most affordable.

"Mercedes S-Class is much better than Toyota Landcruiser."
That pretty much sums up this thread.

Porsche and Bugatti are owned by VW too it doesn't diminish they're quality.

That being the point of my original analogy.

The apps of IOS are of best quality,
and cheaper than those of Android..

How can free vs free be cheaper unless you mean cheaper quality.

Sort-of yes. I'd like to hear from people using the S-Class to round up sheep or drag hay bales around fields also.

They mount German motors into metal parts they get from Germany. I am not quite sure if I would count that as "hand built".
I am also not quite sure if in times where robots can assemble cars with millimeter precision a hand built car is a sign of quality.
