Best OS For Your Mobile Phone: Android Phones vs iOS Phones vs Windows Phones Users nowadays want something versatile and naturally, a mobile phone is bound to comply with the demand. That said, for a smartphone or mobile phone to function properly, it requires a backbone to support its function. While there is plenty of mobile operating system that can make it happen, the iOS, Android, and Windows OS is essential for a mobile phone function the way it should be. A worthy note is that not every OS is compatible with one another. That means, iOS is only made compatible with Apple's phone and Android runs commonly on Samsung, Oppo, and more. But, which one is the best for you? Let’s examine it by category. Mobile Phone Operating Systems Operating Systems are the heart and soul of a mobile phone. The OS runs both software and hardware. Without it, phones would be futile. As of 2019, Android and iOS have dominated the OS market. Android takes up 74% market share and iOS takes up 25%, leaving about 1% for other mobile OS'. For many loyal fans, the battle between Android vs. iOS vs. Windows is an age-old one. Moving from one OS to another is a big step, especially if you’re already in one ecosystem. If you’re interested to dive deeper into the analysis, here's the ultimate breakdown of Android vs. iOS. Mobile Phones with Best Apps Apps are what make your smartphone your mobile phone. Your calls, texts, games all come from different apps downloaded on your phone. Each OS has its store you can get these apps from. Here is the number of free apps in each store as of now, according to Statista: Mobile Phone Types No. of Apps in Store Android Phone 2.5 million Apple iPhone 1.8 million Windows Phone 669 K Android is taking lead with over 2 million apps in the market. Famous for diversity, Android has a wide range of apps to choose from. You can check out our lists of productivity apps and video-editing apps to get you started. You can probably find anything you can think of, no matter how random it may seem. Its stock apps aren’t too shabby either. Some Android apps come built-in with Google’s default apps including Google Maps and Drive, to name a few. Apple iOS running mobile phones have a decent competitive selection as well. Though Android has more apps, iOS apps tend to have better quality. Some developers create apps for iOS first, knowing that a majority of Americans use Apple. Apple’s iPhones and devices are also pretty much synced across the board. The OS updates the same for a majority of iPhone generations compared to Android phones. This means that there are apps available only for specific types of Android phones. Windows comes in last with over 600,000 apps. You can find all of the standard apps like Spotify, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram. That means Windows phone user might encounter some problems searching for not so popular applications. ★ winner: apple's iPhone Apps Store As aforementioned, iOS apps have better quality compared to Android or Windows. This is largely due to its intensive application process. Submitting an app for review on Apple’s App Store isn’t as easy as you think. The App Store’s filtering system is very selective. Google’s Play Store is a bit more versatile. This may mean that not all apps are completely secure. Though Google has Play Protect to scan your phone for harmful apps and malware. The Play Store also has a refund policy, allowing you to rescind any purchases within two hours. It’s also easier to use Play Store alternatives, should you not find the app you want there. Android phones support APK, though Android isn’t responsible for any viruses. Like we said earlier, the Windows store is pretty basic compared to Android and iOS. It doesn’t have as inclusive of a catalog, making it hard to find niche apps. ★ winner: Android Phones The Mobile Phone's Ease of Use A mobile phone interface is highly dependent on the OS. By default, these OS are distinguishable and distinctive from one another. With iOS’ signature fonts and app design; Android’s customizable home page; and Windows’ iconic tile design. Many mobile phones are running on Android, so the GUI varies from phone to phone. It also has a ton of customization options, such as widgets and skins. A downside to this would be the complicated toggles. If you want heavy customization and don’t mind messing around with settings, this is perfect. Windows’ sleek design has a seamless integration to the Windows PC interface. If you use the Windows ecosystem, navigating through the mobile shouldn’t be a problem. Its simplistic GUI makes it perfect for any beginner. However, there’s a limit to customization. While iOS has its moments, the Apple iPhone interface has stayed consistent throughout. There’s less of a learning curve when it comes to upgrading your iPhone. It also doesn’t have as many customization options as Android mainly for security purposes. With Android cutting it close, iOS has a superior interface. Compared to Windows, iOS has better customization options. And it’s not as complicated to navigate through like Android. ★ winner: Apple's iPhone Mobile Phones with best voice assistant Contrary to popular belief, voice assistants have been around since the ‘60s. It wasn’t until Apple’s launch of Siri in 2011 that made it accessible to the public. Since then, many OS has come up with their voice assistant feature. While Apple has Siri, Microsoft has Cortana that was introduced in 2013, named after an AI from Halo. As for Google, it launches Google Now in 2012 but eventually developed Google Assistant. Usually awakened by a voice prompt, these AI can act as a personal assistant. They can check the weather, look things up, and schedule appointments. Google is even developing an AI that can even converse with people. It’s a big step for technology, which is great but scary at the same time. Features Google Assistant Apple Siri Windows Cortana Search Engine Google Safari Bing Voice Recognition Speed Fast Fast Slower Task Prompt ✘ ✔ ✘ Continuity / Follow-up Questions ✔ Yes ✔ Ecosystem Integration Yes ✔ ✔ Each Voice Assistant performed well with their tasks. However, Google Assistant and Siri surpassed Cortana by a mile. While all could answer queries, Cortana couldn’t detect voice in noisy environments. Both Siri and Google Assistant could understand context and answer follow-up questions effectively. Apple's Siri earns extra points for its automatic task prompt when asked a question. And all assistants have good ecosystem integration. Siri proved to be a more in-depth assistant than the other two. Its seamless transition from query to a task is great. Overall, a well-rounded assistant that works in any Apple gadget. ★ winner: Apple's iPhone Bugs and Fixes Android’s updates on a mobile phone are a bit slow and inconsistent. Because many phones run on Android OS, not all of them get quick updates. If you have a Vivo phone, your apps may not update as quickly as Huawei, for example. As of 2020, Windows is cutting its updates on the Windows phone. Its final update was in January of this year. The update was for improvement and fixes. You can still use your Windows phone, but some apps might not work overtime. Of all three, iOS updates are more frequent and consistent. Updates get synced to all iPhones. Up until recently, this included iPads. But Apple announced that iOS 13 would be exclusive to the iPhone this year. The iPad will get separate updates from the iPadOS. ★ winner: Apple's iPhone Security and privacy In today’s digital age, it’s harder to keep track of your security and privacy. Our smartphones store a ton of sensitive information. Which is why tech giants are working to ease our worries. In 2017, Nokia released a Threat Intelligence report. They found that a big percent of Android mobile phones suffered malware infection. This was closely followed by Windows. iOS only had about 3% of the findings. There has been a lot of controversy surrounding Google and ads. There have been claims of Google selling user data to brands. Google removed about 600 adware apps in the Play Store with stricter app guidelines. Of the three, a mobile phone that is operating on iOS is the least prone to viruses and malware, making it the safest option. ★ winner: Apple's iPhone Mobile Phone Peripherals Peripherals can enhance the connectivity of your mobile phone. There are plenty of accessories you can get for your Android phones or iPhones but it's all down to its incompatibilities of the phone models and brands. Both Android and Apple have their smartwatches. Windows has yet to make its own. Some phones are now going wireless. There is a ton of support for Bluetooth earphones and headsets. Apple even recently received backlash for removing their 3.5mm headphone jacks. You may need to buy extra adapters, or get the new AirPods. Either way, it can be a bit more pricey compared to Windows and Android. In terms of connectivity, Android phones use standard USB cables. It’s much more universal than the iPhone’s lightning cable. ★ winner: Android phones mobile Battery Life and Charging capabilities ©Photo by Pixabay Both Android and iOS phones have comparably good battery life. But there is still a bulk of Android phones in the market that have better battery life. Windows phones have decent batteries, but they drain more easily. Charging time also takes a bit longer than with Android or iOS phones. Recently, the latest iPhones support wireless charging and lightning charge. This was previously an area Android dominated in. However, Apple's lightning cable might not be as durable. Hence, that would be an add-on cost to replace your mobile phone cable. Whereas this is already included with Android phones. ★ winner: Android phones Mobile Phone Storage capacity If you’re someone who has a lot of videos or saved memes, you need bigger phone storage. Fortunately, today’s smartphones are capable of hundreds of GB of storage. 128GB phones are becoming industry standard as of late. Samsung has already developed 1TB phone storage. The future of bigger storage capacity is bright. While both Windows and Android allow storage expansion, the iPhone does not. Apple wants to keep the iPhone’s design sleek and minimal. This makes it hard to remove the iPhone’s battery or add an external SD card. In terms of storage capacity, Android definitely takes this win. It wins us over with great support for storage expansion. Not to mention bigger internal storage on the horizon. ★ winner: Android phones Video Conferencing Video conferencing is an easy way to coordinate with digital teams. Or, just talking with family and friends overseas. All three OS have their apps for video conferencing. Apple's iOS has FaceTime, Android has Google Duo and Windows has Skype. iPhones have FaceTime built-in to the phone. It’s also built-in to all Apple devices like the iPad and Mac. You can answer a Facetime call both in any of your Apple devices. It will alert all of them if there is a WiFi or data connection. Most Android phones with Google Suite have Google Duo built-in. It’s Google’s latest video conferencing app, replacing Google Hangouts. The app is cross-platform and can also be used with iOS. Google Duo’s “Knock Knock” feature is unique. It allows the person you’re calling to see you before they answer. You might have to download Skype on your Windows phone. But it has more functionality than Facetime and Google Duo combined. Skype’s group call can include up to 25 people and allows instant messaging during the call. It also has a ton of features like screen share, voice messages, and more. There’s a reason Skype is widely used and trusted by many. ★ winner: Windows Camera Software ©Photo by Randy Tarampi on Unsplash It’s hard to say whether Android cameras are inherently good or bad. There are a ton of great cameras, but a lot of bad ones, too. There are a lot of customization options for Android though. And there are lots of apps to maximize camera settings as well. Plus, Google Photos have unlimited storage, so it’s easier to manage. The iPhone consistently gets praise for its great camera quality. They take sharp and well-saturated photos. The recent releases have cleaner Portrait Mode, wider angle than most Android cameras. There are also a lot of great editing apps on the App Store to improvise any pictures. Windows phones surprisingly have good quality cameras. It may not take pictures as crisp as the iPhone, but they have many cool features. Their wide-angle lenses are great for taking pictures with friends. ★ winner: Apple's iPhone The overall winner for best mobile phone type It was a close call, but iOS wins this showdown in terms of these criteria. But we admit that it’s hard to be completely objective. If you’re looking for something simple and secure with a great ecosystem, then choose iOS. If you want something more customizable with better storage, pick Android. And lastly, if you want something more minimalist and easy to navigate, then pick Windows.
