Apple vs Android: The dispute between Android and iPhone lovers is now more and more common in the features introduced by Apple in its latest Appliances.
The features were more or less inspired by Google's mobile platform, as happened for example with wireless charging with iPhone 8 and iPhone X.
Most Android fans and critics of Apple argue that the company from Cupertino is no longer innovative, and they are quite slow in adopting certain characteristics.
However, according to the head of the Apple Eddy Cue services, it takes time to develop the new features. As he explained in an interview at Livemint Apple is "incredibly innovative" and when asked if the company has slowed down the level of innovation in recent years, he gave the following answer:
"No way! First of all, the iPhone is 10 years old. The iPad came after and after that clock. So, I disagree and I think we are extremely innovative. I'm not taking into account the work that's been done on Mac, iOS and MacOS, where I think we're leading the market.”
One of the most innovative features that Apple has released recently is Face ID, exclusive to the iPhone X. It is a system recognitionof a person using 3D detection cameras, and Apple says there's a one in 1.000.000 chance someone could unlock your iPhone with their face.
Anyway, I think both sides are right. Google's Pixel devices, which it introduced right after the iPhone X launch, are a model of technology, with a single camera that performs better than the iPhone's dual camera.
We are talking about a real race, which, in addition to speed, plays a role both in quality and in innovation. This year Apple has finished this race without ending since we are still waiting for the iPhone X.
But we can not say anything about the technology that all competitors are launching in the smartphone market. The devices are really high end, and their features quite advanced. What really is missing is the wow that was heard in the first iPhone presentation by Jobs.
When innovation left no room for doubt…
On the other hand, of course, are the well-known copiers, who are slowly gnawing at the dominance of the big "innovative" companies… See Xiaomi…
Why price is a factor that everyone should take seriously into consideration.
