Apple's iPhone is no Blackberry: a closer look at AI and the world's biggest company

tzeshan said:other question is with a skin can Android phone use the Apple EarPods with the ability to scan through music lists and ask Siri questions without touching the Android phone?
Should I claim Apple is bad becuase I can't use gear VR or I can't use micro USB accessories. -
Google I/O 2016: Android deployment rate slips backward by 20 percent
freerange said:apple v. samsung said:But we can wager in the next few months that it will get the update to marshmallow. I would love to have a discussion about this. I acknowledge Apple is better at updates. I also don't see that large of a problem on Android. Security updates are independent and are released monthly. Most SDK hooks are in play services. It is a problem in reality Google has done a phenomenal job breaking things out of Android to bypass the OEM and carriers. Remember we are comparing apples to oranges. Apple has a vertical intergration this is one of the benefits to that. Google has an open intergration this is one of the downsides to it. No matter what we compromise. With Nexus I don't have to compromise software. -
Google I/O 2016: Android deployment rate slips backward by 20 percent
spheric said:It is NOT the same, because that S5 Samsung CANNOT be updated to the latest OS - which is precisely the point of this article: people aren't upgrading to the latest Android versions!
It would be similar if that 5s still sold today were only upgradeable to iOS 8 (though Android L was replaced by M six months earlier than iOS 9 was released).

hmlongco said:apple v. samsung said:Just pointing out that Is purposefully being misleading as many places where you can buy a new iPhone 5s market it with iOS 7...
Also, Im an iOS developer and use dozens of phones at work for testing. Many are older devices that have been upgraded to new os's, and not a single one of them has been "upgraded to un-usability". In fact, in many cases they work better than they did before, as Apple is continually upgrading iOS's background and process capabilities.
So is Google, for that matter. It's just that there many people are functionally unable to upgrade Android devices, so it doesn't matter.
