Why does the Microsoft founder prefer Android to iPhone?

During his first visit to the Clubhouse podcast and in an interview to promote his new book, Microsoft founder Bill Gates was asked, which do you prefer the iPhone or Android operating system, and why? Gates’s answer was a surprise, but it bears a kind of irony. Let us know his answer.


What's the story

With many celebrities using the clubhouse audio app, such as Elon Musk, founder of Tesla and SpaceX, and Mark Zuckerberg, founder of Facebook, one of the questions asked to Bill Gates was "Do you prefer Android or iOS?"

Bill Gates said, "I actually use an Android phone because I want to track everything. I often play with the iPhone, but the device that I rely on is the Android."

Bill Gates had previously announced that he prefers Android, and although he owns an iPhone, nothing has changed, and the iPhone remains in his hands if he wants to use it for any reason, such as entering the Clubhouse audio app for iPhone devices now.

Bill Gates added, "Some Android phone manufacturers install Microsoft software by default and in a way that makes it easier for me. They are more flexible in terms of how applications interact with the operating system, and this is what I'm used to in the end, despite many of my friends owning an iPhone." .

Apparently, Gates prefers the more open nature of the Android system, unlike the iPhone operating system, and Bill admitted two years ago that the way he dealt with Microsoft's mobile division was the biggest mistake as it ended up allowing Google to turn Android to be the only true competitor to the iPhone. IPhone

In fairness to Gates, Steve Ballmer was the CEO of Microsoft at the time and mocked the iPhone, but he cried a lot after Windows Phone failed to obtain any major market share among operating systems, and the result was a final abandonment of Windows Phone, and so Microsoft lost a market worth $ 400 billion. At the time, something Gates still deeply regrets.

 Finally, Gates admitted that his relationship with Steve Jobs was unstable and not good, but at the same time he described the founder of Apple as a unique personality.

What about you Do you agree with what Bill Gates said that the Android ecosystem is more open than iOS, tell us in the comments.

In my opinion, the iPhone is better because it fulfills the most important feature for me, which is protection. All I do on the iPhone is browse, and the last time I bought an iPhone was in 2013. After that, one of my relatives lent me his Android phone, and I hated it because I use it harshly and I got a virus after that. 😵 My relative was upset with me, and he was right, but in the iPhone, I got a virus from the same page and I did it on purpose, and it was malfunctioning for a week after that, and then the system told me that the virus had been detected.

Honestly, the Android system does not work as a basic device ... The iPhone is very practical and its programs are of high quality ... man, the iPhone keyboard will suffice for the time being.

    Because you did not try Android, I was like you, but after the experience, the matter varies 180 degrees, so can you write in your language and when sending it in a second language, English, Spanish or Chinese on the iPhone is impossible

Android is good, but it does not reach the stability of iOS, and it does not reach the quality of applications, continuous updates, and occasional use of Android

Frankly speaking, the Android system is better than the iPhone, but in speed and quality I think that the iPhone is better than the things in it, so I prefer the iPhone with the iPhone Android After two years, your phone company starts support for the Android system and begins to slow down the device and this is more that raises my pressure and also makes the phone For example, if you want to play, I do not advise you in Android, especially strong games like PUBG, a game code, and play a lot of games that are organized under the content of strong online games, as if it were your number to buy a phone from its phones. As for Apple, it is something that beats me more. Not to open up and amend the system in a way, even with a little bit, except for things that are with it and not

    You said that Android phones are not useful for games like PUBG, but you are wrong brother ..
    There are phones like Samsung NOTE ULTRA that can run powerful games more smoothly than the iPhone, if you want to compare an iPhone with an Android device, compare it with a higher-class device, not an average phone.
    Thank you

The credit for using modern technology for the majority of people is due to the Android system and its mobile phone company partners, as the prices of iPhones are not within reach of the vast majority, and as for the iPhone and the iOS system, I think it is safer, better, and even its spare parts are cheaper as spare parts ..

What I agree with is that Microsoft has lost a very large share of the phone market by abandoning its system and not developing it despite its ability to do so, and it deserves to regret this.

In fact, his words are in order, most of us use the two systems and own the two devices for me, since I could not rent iPhone versions I stopped a year ago, despite my interruption of it for a long time (expensive), but if we came to the truth, Android contains most of the systems that you need and is easy to use and very easy and the most important thing (cheap ) This is if we talked about the aspect that concerns us as consumers and I always ask myself what distinguishes the iPhone from Android? What is a lot, believe me dear, I compare it to you physically I have a Nova 3 device I took three years ago at a price of more than 1000 riyals and used it for work, as a person and as a modem, and it has all my needs two slices of a large screen Fingerprint Face ID integrated and my second device iPhone 11 No big difference and its price What needs to tell you how much does not compare honestly, but with the gift I took it and decided to stop and it suffices what features are worth other than the camera at half the value, buy a professional camera, even if, in the end, it is just pictures that I do not sell nor benefit There is no need for them
In general, this remains my personal opinion and I met all my needs as a simple user in Android at a nominal price and this is what is important 😀😀😀

Guys, I found out how to operate the money application through the x-vpn application. I hope you publish the comment, but when you run the application, wait a day or two or three days, but do not leave the VPN turned off. Then one day it opens and then you answer the questions, but you try during those three days. Try every two hours, one hour. The important thing is to try, then you can open it. But there is a problem that is not great. It wants to open the tracking button, then you go to the settings and press the always button when you go to the application settings. So far, the application is successful and I use it. Peace be upon you and God’s mercy and blessings.

I am sorry for this comment, I know that it is not in this position, but I came to the recent article for people to see. I am sorry, company

God, Bill Gates, is old.
I use the iOS system and I find it suitable for the type of phone usage I have and I am used to it. As for the Android system, I find it more open and meets the multiple uses of its users without any noticeable restrictions, and this is not what I use the phone for, at least at the present time.
I don't think Bill Gates’s answer was ironic, as his answer was realistic as he saw it through his use of both systems.

From experience, two systems that work with a different algorithm cannot be compared from each other, and if the sub-programs between them were shared, Apple was able to create programs that fit the capabilities of its phones in addition to the presence of many accessories that are in harmony with the operating system and make these devices an integrated organization that serves the customer as one device . As for Android, it gave its owners the ability to innovate and creativity away from the restrictions, but unfortunately, when the specifications of the program embody the capabilities of each phone, so that many programs cannot match the imaging capabilities because they came with neutral capabilities for all phones without taking into account the differences between them.
Finally, moving from Android to iPhone or vice versa forces you to give up many of the privileges that you were working with with this system.
But I prefer the chain of the system and the harmony of programs that are compatible with the capabilities of the phone and that certainly gives you a high degree of completion of your goals and tasks.
Determining the appropriate system for you is the one who determines it according to your desires and interests.
