Is Android winning over iOS? Yes, It is!

Android and iOS are the most trending mobile operating systems today.Almost 80% of the smartphones and tablets are running on either of these OS's.They both are powerful and works efficiently.But among them which is better?Today we are gonna find that out.

We can see that nowadays Android is gaining a huge popularity among smartphones and tablets.Google is giving number of updates and added features every now and then for Android.Even though iOS is a very popular OS,unlike Google,Apple is not giving quick updates or added features to its OS.

One of the best advantage of Android is that it is an 'Open Source' OS; means anybody can download or modify Android freely.This option is not available in the case of iOS.This is the reason why we see all of the tablets expect iPad or PlayBook running on Android OS.This is a huge advantage for users since lots and lots of apps,games and other software's are made for a popular OS.If you are developing a tablet or smartphone, without anyone's permission you can use Android as it's OS.Also you can customize it the way you want.

When coming to Apps and Games,Android is again winning over iOS.We know that great and powerful games are made each day for both the platforms.But one of the biggest problem we face on iOS games is that, it works well only on the current device i.e., The game made for iPad 2 may not work well in iPad 1.In the same way,the game made for iPad 3 may not work well for iPad 2 because Apple is giving a huge improvement in graphics and performance in its device series.But this is not the case in Android devices.Out of my personal experience games and apps made for current Os version works well on older Android versions.The buyers won't become fools.

The next thing why Android is winning over iOS is the price which users pay for both the device and Apps they download.We know that Apple products are a way expensive than Android devices.In the same way apps from Apple Store are expensive than the one from Google Play.Also you can get paid apps (even though it is not legal) for Android freely form external links.

The next thing is a big problem which iOS users face today-Flash on internet.Even though Apple has improved a lot in technology, they haven't given flash support on their browsers.This is a major drawback.But most of the browsers for Android does support flash.

So this is the time for you to decide.Which is good?The one which is cheap but user friendly or the other which is great but expensive?Whatever your opinion maybe, I personally go for Android.It is the best mobile operating system available today.It is good for value for money, performance, user experience and availability.
