Apple just reported a record number of iPhone sales in its Q1 earnings.
But while iPhones might be selling like hot-cakes, there are still a bunch of reasons why Android phones are better.
1. When you buy an iPhone, you're stuck with as much storage as you decided to buy at the get-go. Most Android phones, however, have a microSD card slot, so you can easily and cheaply buy more storage space.
2. If your battery starts sucking, you can often remove it and replace it with a new one. Can't do that with an iPhone.
3. You can use a bunch of different Android phones (including the HTC One, LG G3, and the Galaxy S5) as remote controls, because they have infrared blasters on the top. iPhones do not.
4. Android files screenshots, downloaded pics, and pictures saved from messages into their own separate folders.
5. Android doesn't care where your music comes from. Apple and iOS 8, however, require iTunes if you want to load your iPhone up with songs, and you need iPhoto if you ever want to get your photos onto your computer.
6. You can use any micro-USB cable to charge your Android phone. If you want to charge your iPhone, you need to have Apple's proprietary "Lightning" cable.
7.Google's app store lets you download apps to your phone directly from its website. If you search for an iPhone app in a browser, on the other hand, you have to launch iTunes or the App Store to download and install it.
8. You can set multiple user accounts on the same Android tablet.
9.Apple's baked-in Maps apps isn't as good as Google's, but on an iPhone, you can't make Google Maps your default.
10.On an iPhone, you can unlock your phone with your fingerprint or a passcode. On most Android devices, you have several additional options, including patterns or face unlocks.
11.You can customize an Android phone much more than an iPhone, like by adding widgets on your home screen.
12.Android phones don't force you to keep all of your apps on one of your homescreens, like iPhones do.
13.On quite a few Android phones, you can open and see multiple apps at once.
14.When you have an Android phone, your notifications are always shown at the top of your screen, which makes easier to remember what you need to check and respond to.
15.This is a small one that I noticed after I switched from Android to iOS, but the baked-in Android alarm clock tells you how many hours of sleep you'll be getting. iPhones make you do the mental math.
