iPhone share is growing because it is the best phone, and has been for quite some time.
Some aspects of androids are better computers, but certain the phone and communication part of them is far far behind.
- veave 3y agoSome people must think that it's impossible to reach iphone levels of stability, design, etc. but the truth is that google is simply incompetent in the same way microsoft was with windows phone.
- matheusmoreira 3y agoIncompetent doesn't quite do it justice. Google doesn't even sell their phones world wide. It's depressing. They're the only phones with hardware security rivaling that of iPhones too. I don't know which's worse: having to buy from Google to use GrapheneOS or the realization that all the other manufacturers are even further behind. With remote attestation there'll be no point in running android anyway. Might as well get an iPhone.
- nottorp 3y ago> because it is the best phone * least bad. Out of two options.
- steve1977 3y agoWhich, technically, makes it the best.
- matheusmoreira 3y agoThat's weird. Is there something about the telephony system in the iPhone that's better? First time I've ever seen anyone praise that. People generally care about the curated walled garden experience.
- thebears5454 3y agoYes, imessage and facetime are vastly superior to whatever the android alternatives are.
- matheusmoreira 3y agoThose aren't telephony services though. They're Apple's WhatsApp/Signal equivalents.
