You pay a bit more, but Apple keeps its equipment supported far longer than any Android phone ever is.

This is again a mere "vulnerability" being touted as an "exploit" without evidence such an exploit has been demonstrated in the wild, announced by Apple after the security updates have been pushed out to users of older iPhones for updating. The real risk here is that it also impact ALL users of older versionWebKit, a public domain kit of communications protocols developed and owned by Apple, which is used by almost all versions of Unix™, Linux, Android, their browsers and many Microsoft browsers as well as part of their standards. The vulnerability has been closed by Apple in Webkit’s latest releases but if your Android, Linux, Unix™, browser latest release is not updated, it may have one of the older version, and if your provider doesn’t provide upgrades, then you may have a problem with hackers taking advantage of that now known vulnerability and have to rely on anti-malware apps to detect any attempts to exploit it through websites or malicious emails. —PING!

Both MS and Apple are a pita for webdevs. It triples the code due to having to cater to them and their proprietary ways. Neither will conform to Web Standards.
