Android Vs iOS

Google's Android and Apple's iOS are operating systems used primarily in mobile technology, such as smartphones and tablets. Android, which is Linux-based and partly open source, is more PC-like than iOS, in that its interface and basic features are generally more customizable from top to bottom. However, iOS' uniform design elements are sometimes seen as being more user-friendly.

You should choose your smartphone and tablet systems carefully, as switching from iOS to Android or vice versa will require you to buy apps again in the Google Play or Apple App Store. Android is now the world’s most commonly used smartphone platform and is used by many different phone manufacturers. iOS is only used on Apple devices, such as the iPhone.

Apple Vs Samsung Sales Market

Apple Inc. secured another win as the top smartphone manufacturer in the United States (U.S.) but lost in the mobile operating system market share to Google.

According to digital measurement and analytics provider comScore, data from its MobiLens and Mobile Metrix showed Apple ranked as the top smartphone manufacturer with 41.3 percent of the OEM market share for the three months ending in February 2014. In comparison to comScore's previous three months worth of data, ending in November 2013, Apple represented 41.2 percent of the top smartphone manufacturers market share. Apple, therefore, grew its OEM market share by 0.1 percentage point.

Samsung showed the most percentage growth, but it was not enough to move outside second place. Samsung's market share grew to 27 percent once February concluded, which is an increase from 26 percent during the three months ending in November last year.
