Android or iOS
Why can’t we agree to disagree?
While I’m sure there are detractors in both corners, I’ve always found that Apple fan boys are far more eager to tout how the i [ Fill in the blank ] already has/had/does something that Android doesn’t.
It reminds me of something I once heard regarding tattooed people vs non-tattooed people, in this case Android owners being the tattooed people. “Tattooed people don’t care if you don’t have a tattoo, but not vice versa.”
A majority of the people who like Android don’t care if your phone or tablet already had some feature or in your opinion does something better; we’re just happy that the system we’ve chosen to use does have a feature now or that an app is finally available that’s been on the iFruit for months.
If you use Apple products, then you’ve chosen to share the Jobs vision of having a certain experience; Android users are truly the ones who “think different”.
I can certainly appreciate the design aesthetic of Apple products and no one can deny that Steve Jobs was a brilliant man; I just don’t care for the Apple OS.
Gina Trapani recently tweeted “I use iOS and Android every single day, and there’s much to love and hate about both of them. #whateverworksforyou”
I completely agree. Use what you love and stop hating on the other platform. It’s great that we have our passions, but our love of technology should be a unifying thread, not a source for venomous remarks.
