1. Android and Android phones

2.  Androidis the world's most popular mobile
platform. With Android you can use all the
Google apps you know and love, plus there
are more than 600,000 apps and games
available on Google Play to keep you
entertained, alongside millions of songs and
books, and thousands of movies. Android
devices are already smart, and will only get
smarter, with new features you won't find on
any other platform, letting you focus on
what's important and putting you in control
of your mobile experience.

3. Who founded Android, Inc.?
O Android, Inc. was founded in Palo Alto,
California, United States in October, 2003
by Andy Rubin (co-founder of Danger),
Rich Miner (co-founder of Wildfire
Communications, Inc.), Nick Sears (once
VP at T-Mobile), and Chris White(headed
design and interface development at
WebTV).[25] to develop, in Rubin's words
"...smarter mobile devices that are more
aware of its owner's location and
preferences."

4. Why most of people love android
tablet devices?
Android tablet devices are great
gadgets which could be practically used
for anything from a technological point of
view. There is no doubt that multi-
functionality is what attracts most of the
loyal users who tend to buy every new
model of the android devices no matter if
it is a tablet or an android phone. If some
thought is given, it could be easily
concluded that the android tablet is
actually replacing the laptops because it
can be used for chatting, playing games,
preparing documents, reading
documents, sending mails, listening to
music etc. It is pretty much like
something that replaces a computer,
MP3 player and even a mobile phone.
That’s right! Some of the most recent

5. WHY ANDROID IS BETTER THAT IOS?
Android iOS

6. *Many People who have iPhone’s
will try to point out the “great
features” of the iOS, however
they don’t know what they are
missing out on. There are many
things about the iOS, that are just
plain irritating, and I will point
them out. 

7. The iPhone lacks a back button, a feature
which pretty much all Android phones have to
begin with. For example, if you’re reading an
email and you click on a link, it opens up
Safari, and to get back to your email, you
have to press the home button, and click on
the mail app again. (This was somewhat fixed
with iOS 4.0 multitasking but the functionality
of Android is still better.)

8. 2. Default Apps
So far, it is impossible to set default
apps for certain actions on the
iPhone. However, on Android, this is a
piece of cake. If you want to set
Opera or Dolphin as the default web
browser, you can do so easily but on
iPhone, you have to open the app up
manually, since Safari cannot be
changed as the default web browser.

9. 3. Notification System
The Android slide-down
notification bar is amazing,
however, the
iPhone notification
system is horrendous.

10. 4. WIDGETS
Android Widgets are absolutely
amazing. The iPhone lacks Widgets
altogether. Android widgets can be
placed on the home screen(s), and
can provide you with quick news
updates, live scorecards for sport,
messages, email, and much, much,
more.

11. 5. Memory
Apple is too restrictive on what their customers can do
and what they can’t. For example, the iPhone doesn’t
have a slot for micro-SD cards. If you want more memory
on an iPhone, you’ll have to pay an outrageous sum of
money for an iPhone with a higher capacity of
memory.(There is a significant price difference between
the 16GB and 32GB iPhones.) Pretty much all Android
Phones, on the other hand, have a compartment to put a
micro-SD card into, and with the release of Android
2.2(Froyo), many apps can be saved onto the SD card,
saving you a lot of valuable phone memory.

12. 6. Integration
On Android, if you want,
your Facebook contacts can
be integrated into your
phonebook. This a feature
which the iPhone lacks.

13. Personally, I hated having to repeatedly
sync my iPhone with iTunes. With
Android, plug your phone into the
computer, and it’s just drag and drop,
which believe me, is much quicker and
convenient than syncing. So, your Android
phone can even replace your USB. The
iPhone can’t even be started for the first
time without iTunes!

14. 8. Android Market
The Android Market doesn’t
send you back to the home
screen every time you want
to download/update an
app. I have found this to be
very irritating on the App
Store.

15. 9. FLASH
Many Android phones have Adobe Flash
support, while the iPhone only has html5
support. Without flash, many videos on the
Internet cannot be viewed, making YouTube,
Facebook Video, And TwitVid, some of the
only video sites supported by the iPhone.

16. 10. Developers
Apple charges people who
want to develop applications
for the App Store $100/year,
while Google only charges
Android developers $5, so
once again Android prevails.

17. The email system on the iPhone
is horrible. You have to manually
check for email, unlike on
Android, on which you are notified
of an email as soon as it arrives.
Also, if you have already
viewed/read an email on your
computer (eg. on Hotmail), it will
appear as unread on your iPhone.
This is a big disadvantage for
people who use email a lot.

19. 5 Things iPhone 4S Can’t Do
That Android Can

20. 4G Speeds:
Ever since the HTC EVO
4G launched on Sprint’s WiMAX
network in summer 2010, we’ve
seen more and more Android
handsets with next-gen network
support. Today, every major
carrier sells 4G Android phones,
including Verizon, which has half
a dozen LTE handsets that can
download at speeds between 10
and 20 Mbps while the 3G iPhone
4S will be lucky to pull down 1.5
to 2 Mbps. Buy your iPhone 4S
with a two-year contract and
you’ll be stuck on a 2008-era
network in 2013.

21. Load Any
With iOS, developers and users
App You are at the mercy of Apple’s
Want: standards board. With Android,
there are literally dozens of app
stores in addition to Google’s
Android Market. Want to
program your own app and
distribute it your friends? With
Android, it’s no problem; just
give your friends the install file,
tell them to check the
“Unknown sources” box in their
settings menu, and go to town.

22. Keyboard If you don’t like
Flexibility: Android’s stock
keyboard, you have
dozens of third-party
alternatives, from Swype
to Better Keyboard.
Better still, you can buy
an Android handset with
a honest-to-goodness
physical keyboard. If you
don’t like the iPhone’s
keyboard, you’ll need to
jailbreak it in order to
install an alternative.

23. With the iPhone 4S,
you can get any
screen size you want
as long as it’s 3.5
inches. With the wide
range of Android
phones available, you
can choose from tiny
form factors such as
the Motorola
Charm or huge ones,
such as the 4.5-
inch Samsung Infuse.
It’s your choice, not
Apple’s.

24. With a Near Field
NFC
Communications (NFC) chip,
Support/Mobile Android phones such as the
Payments: Samsung Nexus S and
the HTC Amaze 4G can
double as your wallet,
allowing you to tap and
pay at a growing number of
retail outlets. In the future,
NFC chips will also allow
your phone to be used as an
ID card or a keycard. Maybe
then, Apple will add this
promising technology to its
phones.
