Android is one of the best gifts given by the Google. The facts reveal that there were nearly 1.9 billion android based devices in 2014 against 682 million iOS/Mac OS based devices. You can easily experience the recognition of android in the tech market.

Recently, Android introduces its new version, namely Marshmallow (Android 6.0) whereas iOS introduces 9.2 version with better security and designing tweaks. In the market, their war is obvious, but still most people opt Android smartphones over iPhones. What are the reasons behind their selection?

Below are the top reasons, which make the users still stay with Android phones where iPhones are available with impressive outlooks as well as high-end security.

 

Material Design: The present mobile market is overwhelmed with the material design. Customers are also finding it alluring to experience this new design within their smartphones. Back in 2014, when Google firstly introduces its material design, it was highly appreciated by the customers. The feel for which Android is well famous for, can easily be experienced with this new UI design.

On the contrary, Apple doesn’t heed much on its designing perspective. The reason behind is security, being their top priority. A customer feels UI of android much attractive than iOS because of the flat design, responsive animations and other designing upgradations.

Pool of Free Applications: A phone becomes the best companion for you, if it is enriched with all the needed applications. Android is one such platform, having ample of free as well as paid apps as per your requirement. This is one of the major reasons why android application development services is highly in demand at present.

iTunes, on the other hand is not having a large collection of apps. It not only limits the scope of iPhone app development, but also limits the iPhone users. For security purpose, iPhones are not easily permitted to connect with other phones, making it a major demerit for the users.

Integrated Google Services: Google is having a remarkable collection of services, used by the users. The services majorly include Gmail, Google plus, Google photos, YouTube, Maps, Calender, Google drive and many more. You can’t imagine life without these services. Android phones are preinstalled with these services, offering an easy to use platform.

Whereas, iPhone , being an Apple product is not integrated with Google services by default. You need to integrate them individually as per your need which comes out as a hectic job.

Options for Selection: Moving off the topics, users today prefer a phone which can offer them variations in terms of themes, apps, storage. Android smartphones are one such option where you can change the theme as per the need. Not only this, you can upgrade the storage (with the availability of MicroSD card slot) store the bulk of data (music, video, readable) onto it.

This is what you miss in iPhone. Being provided with a limited storage (no MicroSD slot) as well as a non-convertible home screen, you can’t experiment more with iDevices.

So, what are your viewpoints on this topic? Does iPhone still retain its realm in the mobile market?
