A quick guide on iOS and Android smartphones

Planning to buy a new phone? Don't know which operating system to use? Android or iOS? These two giant mobile operating system both help our day to day work and communication struggles. But which one is really better? Both offer great features and can be available on the market in either prepay SIM or mobile phone plans. For Android phone, you may buy Samsung and get a prepay SIM or even get a Samsung S9 plan. And of course you may also get an iPhone 8 with Apple’s iOS. 


How do they differ? 

Samsung S9 run on an Android OS. An Android operating system is more PC-like compared with iOS and when it comes to its interface down to basic features. Generally they are customizable from top to bottom.  

At the end of the day, both smartphone operating systems are excellent. It’s about personal preference. They might work the same way like for work or for personal use but there are still some important differences that you'll consider. When it comes to pricing whether it's for a prepay SIM or mobile phone plan subscription, Apple has always been at the high end and for sheer scale and variety, nothing competes with Android phones like having a Samsung S9 plan. Samsung’s line almost matches Apple’s iPhone pricing like the iPhone 8 plan. But there’s also a huge choice of good, low-cost handsets from a wide variety of different manufacturers, and the platform has been deliberately optimized to run on low-end hardware.  

When it comes to apps, we all know that it's very difficult to choose from thousands of apps and games in either Android's Google Play Store or Apple's App Store. However, both of these operating systems support whatever choices you make. It should be noted that there are some issues with rogue apps in Google’s Store whereas Apple is much stricter with apps from unverified developers. This could help you choose your operating system if you’re concerned about your mobile phone security. 

If you are still undecided, you may want to think do more research or visit the TeleChoice website. Take a look around all of our phones and plans or call us to speak with a representative today.
