I'm not sure we are comparing Apples to Apples here... Pun intended?

Android is an OS and iPhone is the hardware. Is the Pixel 4 XL better than the iPhone 12 Pro Max? Quite possible. Is Android better than iOS? Quite possible.

I get the fact that iOS and the iPhone are tightly coupled, but Android is the exact opposite where software and hardware are not coupled Android implementations from manufacturer to manufacturer differs quite significantly.

It's definitely a weird headline for an article that compares more a Google implementation to an Apple Implementation.

(I am the author of the shared article.) You're right. I have a CS background, so I do understand your point.

I was loose with terminology, preferring to reflect what people commonly say, rather than strict precision. I have added an explanation near the top.
