The iPhone vs Android debate has become markedly less heated over the past few years, in large part because premium Android devices from the likes of Samsung and Google bring a lot to the table. And while Android manufacturers a few years back unabashedly copied every iPhone feature they could, it’s not uncommon these days to see Apple copy some Android features every now and again. Suffice it to say, the difference between an iPhone and a top of the line Android is smaller today than it’s ever been before.
That notwithstanding, there are still some serious advantages that come along with picking an iPhone over an Android, with device security being a glaring example. While Apple isn’t perfect, the control the company wields over the App Store ensures that malware and scamware apps are rarely able to sneak in. In stark contrast, more than 25,000 malware apps were uploaded to the Google Play store in 2019 alone, according to a mobile threat report from RisKIQ. If anything, it seems that we can’t go a single month without some report of the Play store being flooded with a variety of harmful apps.
