iOS vs Android
I may be in the market for a smart phone in the near future, but don't know much about them since I use a flip phone. I'm wondering if there is any benefit of an iPhone as opposed to an android one. Thanks for your insight.

- Fizz is exactly right but I’m betting you do not have a tablet.
Sally forth, my son, and flip no more. - Have gone all iOS for both phones and tablets. They just work day in and day out. Not perfect but now use them for all computer needs. Except for doing my taxes which requires Windows.
- Android is selling 3 phones for each iphone. Sooner or later there will be apps that the iphone does not have. The latest iteration of the iphone does away with the headphone jack in favor of a propitiatory connector.
Android is my choice - I have had both for years......and still can’t advise which is best.....Apple keeps a tighter reign on their products and iOS.....thus perhaps a bit more secure. The corollary is the Android May offer more flexibility than the iOS device. Also, as previously mentioned here, the Android probably gives more bang per buck, assuming you are talking quality units like Samsung has to offer.
- In my opinion, I don't think its makes any difference in the end result. As Fizz said, make it compatible with your other 'toys'.
I stayed with the Apple, because most of the family I depend on also have the Apple Iphones. That said, the Iphones connects to my Windows 10 laptop through iTunes.
Once you get used to one or the other, it probably won't be any problems to use.
Ken - Price is the biggest difference. You'll probably pay a lot more for the similar performance and features in an iPhone.
- opps... repeat
- The only advantage I see would be to keep it compatible with your tablet if you have one and any other toys you have.
