there you go again, lying about what others have said and proving

think they're just trademarks, then you're stupid and your supposed

An OS that is far more secure, thanks to dumb-ass novice users NOT
being able to simply install apps from anywhere on the internet.
A Calendar app where the reminders actually works at the scheduled
time, rather than the the alarm sounding "whenever I feel like it"
approach in Android.

Google Tensor gives you five years of updates and so does Samsung S2x.
Every Android gets updates for the Google apps for many years after that.
No iOS phone or pad ever gets updates for the Apple apps after iOS expires.
It's not even close.
Apple expires first.
I had Android. Samsung gave me updates for two years.

That's like telling us you had Japanese cars in the days they were junk.
But you still seem to think all Japanese cars are junk compared to US cars.
Android is like Japanese cars in those days - but - they improved.
Apple is like American cars in their heyday - they never improved.
iOS is like American cars. iOS didn't improve updates with the times.
Android did.
