Apple's iOS is better than Google's Android OS

I apologize for forfeiting my previous round and hope that I can prove my arguments adequate in this final one. It is true that iOS has more apps in their App Store than AOS. However, are all those apps really needed? How many are just duplicates of other apps? Keep in mind that the breadth and diversity I mentioned previously among Android phones means that there will be applications unavailable to iPhone users. For example, there is a new phone coming out that can project screen contents onto a wall or display panel, basically creating a larger computer monitor where ever you go. Look at the top apps used by each. AOS typically uses more business related apps, whereas iOS is more popular as a simple game machine. http://searchenginewatch.com... Android has more free apps than iOS and has a 15 minute refund policy, App store has no refund policy. What is the benefit to all the extra apps if you it costs you to trial them? http://www.pcworld.com... My opponent's argument in favor of having iTunes sync between phone and desktop is misleading. Simply put, with AOS, you don't even need a desktop. Everything can be used/updated with your phone. Google Music and other apps even allow you to sync your music via the cloud. My opponent makes it sound like using iTunes is a good thing. In reality, it ties you to your desktop. Once again, AOS provides more freedom My opponent challenged me to find one android phone from 2009 that can use Android 4.0ICS. Again, this is misleading. Phones in 2009 were incapable of running the high end software that is quickly being developed for the increasingly powerful phones being built for Android. I referred to this before - technology becomes obsolete. At the pace of technology we have, how many upgrades should be expected? My opponent mentions the threat of malware on android. I will not deny that android malware exists. However, it also has been found to exist on the App Store and when a concerned hacker brought a security problem to Apple's attention and they did nothing, he posted a proof-of-concept app there and it was approved. Apple later banned him from posting any further apps. With android, developers are encouraged to root out security problems. With Apple, they apparently try and hide them. http://www.tgdaily.com... My opponent's arguments iOS User Interface is more user friendly than AOS - FALSE. In a "usability battle" survey, Android beat out iOS (http://spyrestudios.com......) with respondents choosing Android over iOS for ease of use. Furthermore, I pointed out that AOS is more customizable, allowing users to create the best experience for them. iOS is more consistent throughout Apple Devices - MISLEADING. One must ask, why would this a good thing? As technology advances, wouldn't it better to have software that caters to changes rather than forcing it to maintain to an old paradigm? iOS devices don't need to be upgraded as frequently as AOS devices - FALSE. AOS devices don't NEED to be updated. They are functional as is. Furthermore, they can be easily updated (if the user wishes & update available) via 3g, wifi, or 4g (if equipped). No computer is needed. Updates are over the air, something iPhones lacked until well later.iOS has a much larger selection of applications - MISLEADING. iOS has more apps, but what are they? Do you really need 100 different variations of tic-tac-toe? Plus, Android market has more free apps and has a refund policy. What is the benefit to more apps available if you have to pay to trial most of them and there not being a refund policy in place if you don't like them? My Argument AOS is about freedom and diversity. AOS is more customizable so users can create the experience that bests suits them. The ability for developers to tweak and develop the software allows for manufacturers to experiment with features, allowing for things like microHDMI-out, projector displays, dual LEDS, front & back cameras, etc. It's open source nature has allowed a community to develop to tweak out the full performance of phones as well as find security flaws. Something Apple has apparently frowned upon/tried to smother. The diversity has led to a fast paced evolution of the software, causing to multitasking, drop-down notifications, wireless syncing, customizable wallpapers, LED camera flash, HDMI out, and homescreen folders to occur on AOS well before iOS. While both operating systems are truly wonderful creations and serving many purposes... AOS offers the newest features and is ahead in technology and innovation. It is far more customizable allowing users to create the best experience for themselves.
