It's not superior in any way. I have both an Android phone (Samsung) and an iPhone. Android rules except in one aspect - battery life.

> Android rules except in one aspect - battery life.

This is like saying Windows is better than Linux for battery life, which is obviously ridiculous because it's primarily about the hardware, not software. Put Android on Apple's excellent silicon and watch how suddenly "Android" has really good battery life.

Anyway, both are disgusting passive consumption oriented walled gardens, and phones in general are terrible computers as software goes.

No, its the OS that drains battery.
