Why Switching To Android Would Be A Good Thing

In today’s world of smartphones and tablets, the market is dominated by Apple and Google, with random sightings of Windows trying to leave its mark in a fairly new territory. And till this very day Apple with its iPhone and iOS reigned supreme, all thanks to the impeccable production quality and the fluidity that it offered to the masses for so many years while Google’s Android vainly tried to keep pace and hit back harder every time it was on its knees.

Sceptics and Apple loyalists may staunchly disagree to anything coming towards them, yet there are few facts that stand straight in this debate. Let’s have a look! 1.
