“They have some very new interesting features”

Android has developed very much since the first time it was introduced and you can actually buy android because it comes in phones. They have some very new interesting features that make using phones more enjoyable.

“Android is a second-rate mobile operating system”

Jeremy G.
12/17/11

Android is a second-rate mobile operating system. Why? Because it just doesn't work. I have an HTC phone running Android and the software often locks up (I have to restart the phone several times a day), the user interaction is non-intuitive (I accidentally delete text messages frequently), bugs crop up all the time, and it just generally provides a frustrating user experience. I'm not a huge Apple fan, but Apple's OS is much much better from a user's standpoint. Also, I had a Blackberry before this Android phone, and the Blackberry OS also was much much better (it just worked). Google really has done a very poor job of executing on Android, at least from a consumer standpoint.

Android is god expect for the part where they want to show you ads nonstop. They should give us some space to breath like other operating systems. I do not want my phone to always be download in video ads and wasting my storage.

We decided to purchase an android box after viewing the presentation at our local home show.

To be honest I was cynical but my wife wanted to try the android box. I figured for the low cost why not. After having the android box for more than 4 months I am pleased to say that it has not only met my low expectations, but it has won me over, I love it and don't know what we would do without it.
If you want to watch anything at any time it's there, we dropped our cable and Netflix and now only pay for internet access. Yes there is a bit of a learning curve (where do you look for what) but once you get over that its cake. I have not had any issues that have caused me to call for support. They have a nice web site that shows you the basics of what you need to know.

The android box has exceeded all of my and my wife's expectations. In fact in the near future we will be purchasing another one for the TV in our bedroom.

Android has been the best platform for all the smartphone users. Android has helped in each and every aspect to its consumers. It is economic and reliable, thus helping all the middle level consumers who seeks best phone so that they can consume all services.

I have seen android since the first time it started up to where it is now and i have to say that it has grown really big. I use an android phone and I don't know what I would do if android had not been made. The part I don't like much about android is the whole google part.

Many people debate about whether to go for droid or iphone, let me break down why I think android will win out in the end.

1. Free tethering. Use your droid phone to get internet access on your laptop
2. Free wifi hotspot.
3. Google voice. One phone number for the rest of your life. The same way we can use gmail to aggregate all of our emails, you google voice can aggregate all of your phone numbers. People can start having multiple phone numbers for cheap. Don't want to give out your real phone to someone, you can give them special numbers that you don't always need to pick up.

There is no other than that outmatches android because the majority of people all over the world use android phones. The only negative aspect of android is the ad tracking. Sometimes we just want to be free and not be bothered by advertisements.

The debate has been undying over which is the dominant between Android and the other one. Well, I've been a user of both for quite some time, and I settle for Android. Where it wins is in how it is easy to accessorize and customize android devices, while the other systems don't much allow the user to upgrade the device

As we have already seen on the example of smartphones, the Android operating system is a modern mobile OS. It provides hardware features such as Bluetooth, 3D graphics, Wi-Fi, memory cards, USB, touch screens, geolocation, accelerometers, and camera control. From a software
рoint of view, "Android", being based on the Linux kernel, provides real multitasking of applications.
The latest official version of the system is Android 2.2.
Since "Android" is an open system, this gives great opportunities for mobile device developers to customize this OS. Up to the point that the standard user interface is recycled. Therefore, we will focus on the main elements of the Android user interface, which is quite enough for an initial acquaintance.

I would have added AT&T and Verizon and IPhone to this list but can't find them in the list of companies.

I have learned that my links to anything political that goes against the mainstream view of the time is blocked from being sent over text. It will tell me the message was sent but the person intended to receive the text never gets it. This only happens with political based content and photos of similar content.
I have tested this over and over and its a repeatable "glitch". I understand that glitches happen but this is the first politically affiliated glitch i have ever seen.

If we now live in a world where corporations have a right to censorship based on what their donors want, that's fine! Please just admit to it and stop asking us to stick a feather up our $#*! and call it a tail. I deserve the right to buy a product that best aligns with what Is important to me and not be forced into product rape where corporations can shovels its donor views down my throat if I want to stay plugged into the system.
I will alway choose a product that promotes healthy open discussion and individual liberties over censorship and cruelties. I didnt think I had to say this in 2021 but if corporations are given the same rights as people can you all at least pretend to be adults. What you all are doing now reminds me of the two year old screaming on the floor in the store while horrified parents look on. Incase you guys and girls missed the memo, The world is watching.
"Use your words not your hands" please stop blocking my pictures and links or at least tell me you did, so I can stop thinking my friends and family are ignoring me and they can stop asking me why I ignored them. Be adults please.

Tip for consumers:
Get confirmation on links and pictures sent as a standard practice. Bury links in your text and don't send them stand-alone.
