I'm not sure if this is the right forum but I've been a long time Android user but I'm just about fed up with the "experience". Can you guys help me out with some questions?
One of my chief complaints with Android is the lack of app optimization. Is this any better with Apple? I assume it is just due to the way they are set up.
How about battery drain issues? I know the iPhone battery isn't the best but my HTC M7 is to the point of almost having to charge twice a day with moderate usage and I have no idea what is causing it. I thought it was an app or recent HTC update but I really am not sure I want to reload my phone just to find out. Is this as big of an issue with Apple devices? A few years ago we were assigned iPads for work and those things could go for DAYS without needing a charge with light usage. I'm not expecting that from a phone but a full day on heavy/moderate usage would be nice. Android phones just seem to suffer from battery and OS issues too quickly after purchase (I mean, seriously, I've had this phone for a year and a half) and I am wondering if iDevices can get more mileage out of them.
Those are my main complaints because as far as I'm concerned iOS and Android are essentially two sides of the same coin now and I don't have a huge investment in the Google ecosystem aside from Gmail and Hangouts. Is this just a case of greener grass on the other side or does Apple for the most part do a better job with these things?
I'd like to hear from those who made the switch recently from a nicer Android device to a 5s or 6/6+. I like my One OK but the battery drain/buggy OS and terrible non-Google app performance is just not worth it to me any longer if iOS really is better. Is there anything I'm not considering? Any input would be appreciated!
