    I've used both - the one benefit I see from Apple products is that they don't explode unlike Android products :)

    As much as people find Android devices more accessible, Apple devices are at least keeping me alive.

    That's pretty unfair to say, since this is not a common problem at all. Even the second source you cited says there's a lot of important info that's missing. It's highly unlikely that you would die by using an Android phone anyways.

    OOPSIE! Guess you can't use any Apple products now

    I highly suggest you throw all those Apple products in the trash before they explode and kill someone. Actually, bury it deep in a concrete-laced hole where it can't do any harm.

    Nah I don't. Was just responding in a ridiculing way to a ridiculous post
    This doesn't say anything, there are no statistics or anything, just some examples of high profile cases.

    Here's a statistic for ya: 88% of all phones worldwide are Android. Only 11% are iOS. That means it would be normal for Android phones to blow up 9x more often than iPhones, that doesn't mean there is an actual higher probability of it happening to you.

    Also, Android is an OPERATING SYSTEM. You seem to think Android is a company that makes phones, it's not. There are hundreds of mobile phone brands (Samsung, Google, Motorola, HTC, Huawei, etc.) that all use Android.

    To add something to this response, the problems that can make a phone explode can't just be the manufacturer's (not Android's) problem, but could also be because of a misuse of the owner. Taking one of the sources cited before, it's possible his phone exploded due to overheating while charging. Since it was in the owner's pocket, it could've been his fault, as well as both of them. What I'm trying to say with this example is that it doesn't have to completely be the manufacturer's fault.

    I know Android isn't a company. It's an operating system like iOS for Apple Devices. My opinion on it doesn't change though. I've used both products, but still believe iOS devices are better than Android devices. You're entitled to your opinion like I am entitled to mine. The reason that the percentage is so high is that cheaper phones like OPPO in India use the Android software however manufacture them faster due to high demand. Although Android devices are widely used, due to heavy demands, their manufacturing gets affected by the speed of production. Hence those "high-profile" cases become prevalent when something in manufacturing goes wrong. Those percentages can be right for all I care but I still stand strong with the opinion that Apple devices are better than devices that use the Android software - hence this argument isn't going anywhere other than "I'm right and you're wrong."

    You did say Apple products are at least keeping you alive, which is something ridiculous to say as is.

    Not really. I mean you're entitled to your opinion so I can't do anything about that.

    Of course you are entitled to an opinion. I honestly couldn't care less if you think iOS is "better", but that's not what you said tho...

    Here's what you actually said
    which is simply ridiculous. If you can't see how that's ridiculous...



    Anyways, I'll let you know when my hand gets blown off by my android
