I just provided you with a list of factual data with at least one link to an authoritative neutral source and you call that faith? I rest my case that you are the cult member, indistinguishable from a close minded anti-Trump Liberal, as far as Apple is concerned. “Don’t confuse me with facts,” my mind is hermetically sealed!”
I could post formal bench marks on speed, blind comparisons of people comparing identical app quality between platforms, proof of malware numbers on Android and the lack of malware on iOS, the number and ease of updates (and the percentage of users on the latest), compared to the lack of updating of Android devices of even security updates, etc., ad nauseum, but no amount of proof of the technical superiority of Apple devices, will overcome the propaganda and rumors you’ve been fed about useless spec enhancements to various Android phone models you’ll never own. . . Such as what good is a built in Blood Oximeter monitor on the back of an Android phone that has a 20% error rate for accuracy? Android facial recognition that can be spoofed with a photograph? Really? Bolted on data encryption supplied by third party apps requiring passcodes to be kept in libraries outside of encryption? Really?
My reply was a lazy one for sure. I was headed out the door and should have waited to reply. Sorry. Thanks for the thoughtful reply.
Anyhow, I also find benchmarks that show the Android Samsung S9 to be much superior to the iPhone X. What are we to make of these conflicting stats, one set of stats showing the iPhone X technically better and another showing the Samsung S9 is technically better?
On your points that go to application, you are correct if a Blood Oximeter is not accurate on an Android. Is it on an iPhone?
Where I see android excelling against iPhone is on basic functionality. For example, android is near perfect in voice command (calling up apps, dictating and sending emails all with voice). iPhone just does not do these things nearly as good - if at all.
