We have an iPhone versus hundreds of Android devices
Anyone who follows the news will find that Samsung launches an Android device every two weeks or more that runs on the Android system.

As for the iPhone 7 that the contestant uses, it is nothing but a fake copy, remember what happened with the iPhone 6, as a counterfeit version was released before its release !! ??
Thank you very useful weekly article

When will the conference date Apple to announce the new
Thank you for the efforts ❤️
