Android vs. iOS vs. Windows Phone. Comparison of mobile systems – PC World

 

Some users can not cope with support for Android. The system seems to them overloaded and not very transparent. When you become suddenly in front of a relatively simple task, such as eg. To show someone a particular photograph, probably also need to think for a moment that the elements have to touch the screen.
Many activities are made much easier in iPhones and iPads. Apple’s mobile devices continue to tempt ease of use and clear interface structure. In addition, you do not need to change habits, getting into the new model of iOS. All components come from the same manufacturer, all functions can be found in the same places the interface. Meanwhile, Android is a heterogeneous environment. Even longtime users must che ck the new model, the position of three (or four) basic function buttons. The same applies to user interfaces, which are slightly different relative to each other depending on the manufacturer and model of the device.

For years, changes very little in this regard. However, not long ago all manufacturers have released new versions of operating systems for mobile devices. Microsoft released the first summer of 2014. Windows Phone 8.1. In his footsteps went Apple, providing 8 and update iOS 8.1. The last joined Google rates, releasing Android 5.0. That’s reason enough to test the latest systems in terms of suitability for everyday use, available applications, to adapt to the current hardware, wireless interfaces to enable the use of electronics to wear (ie. wearables ), price, performance and other aspects. These operating systems are also in the tablet, so the statement can not do without conventional versions of Windows.

The market situation, class and design of equipment, prices
weekend after the release of the iPhone, in September 2014., Apple announced a new record – more than ten million copies sold worldwide . On the other hand, the market share of Android in the number of smartphones sold now amounts to almost 85 percent. Apple’s share of the systems is twelve percent, and Windows Phone’a only three. Android gained a huge advantage over competitors among because smartphones with Google’s operating system are much cheaper than the iPhone and iPad. Very good models are available in the price range from 1000 to 1800 zł, while the cheapest cost only 200 zł. Even models that can be purchased now for 500 zł, pretty good deal with the basic tasks in their daily work. A similar situation can be observed in the sector of smartphones running Windows Phone. Even a re latively cheap model Nokia Lumia 630 (available in retail for approx. 550 zł) provides sufficient performance and is able to meet the basic tasks. More expensive models tempting, of course, a more powerful processor, better camera and a larger screen diagonal and higher resolution.
Models of the lower price ranges provide functionality comparable to more expensive devices. In addition, you can expand the memory of most mobile devices (except for the iPhone and iPad) via microSD cards. That’s a pretty significant advantage, so it should not be underestimated. For the cheapest iPhone you have to spend approx. 2800 zł, Air iPad 2 approx. 2000 zł, and iPad Mini 3 c. 1800 zł.

While there is no shortage device & # x105 ; money & # x144; type convertible with windows, hard hit & # x107; for so & # x105; hybrid & # x119; of keyboards & # x105 ;, touchscreen and Android (photo & # x119; five: Lenovo IdeaPad A10). Click to zoom & # x119; larger & # x107; While there is no shortage convertible devices with Windows, it’s hard to hit on such a hybrid with a keyboard, touch screen and Android (pictured: Lenovo IdeaPad A10).

Among the various models of smartphones there are no major differences in terms of design, style and method of use. This is quite different in the case of larger mobile devices – those in which the diagonal is at least seven inches. Tablets are suitable not only much more for watching movies and reading, but also to perform office tasks. The user is therefore the necessity to choose a data input device. May opt for a traditional keyboard or use the virtual keyboard displayed on the screen of the tablet. It’s a matter of needs and tastes, so everyone should be resolved individually. If you enter text using the onscreen keyboard is too laborious, you can purchase an external wireless keyboard, which communicates with the device via Bluetooth. Keyboard support such tablets with any of the four operating systems.
Moreover, they are available mobile devices of type convertible (also called type devices transformer, 2 in 1 or tablet hybrid) with sli ding or reversible keyboard or – external keyboard that is connected if necessary. Combine the advantages of laptops and tablets, but on the other hand are a bit heavier and less handy than conventional tablets. Models equipped with the traditional version of Windows is not unusual. For models with Android are rare. Examples include Lenovo IdeaPad A10 and LG Tab Book. Turn out to be a real unique conventional laptops and netbooks with Android. Even harder hit on the device of this type.
