Tech giant Apple makes iPhones and controls the modern integration of iPhone hardware and Apple software. While this can be restrictive – the iPhone offers less apps than its counterpart Android but Apple has been able to fine tune the quality of its modern smartphone products.
Android software is owned by Google but is used by multiple smartphone manufacturers, including Samsung, Motorola and OnePlus. Quality can vary greatly between Android phone brands, but there are also common features in the way the phones function that allow them to easily interact with each other and other modern Android devices.
