Android is ahead of the of Apple in many ways, says Apple’s co-founder Steve Wozniak – Part 1

Once Apple, Inc.’s indispensible part, the co-founder of the company, Steve Wozniak, registered his reservations on the iPhone while talking to the media. He was primarily comparing the smartphone his best friend and fellow comrade in launching the most successful technology company with Google’s mobile operating system, Android.

While talking to the media, Woz, as his friends and family call him, made it clear that the new edition to the iPhone series is his first choice in many regards. However, that does not stop from criticizing the cons after looking at the pros of the phone.

First off, the iPhone is the one of the best smartphones in the world and iOS has the potential to go places, which it is doing at the moment. However, over the past couple of years, the Android has evolved in a great deal and has brought forth some of the best features that can be included in mobile computing.

The co-founder of Apple lamented the way iPhone 4S has disappointed him in certain features. “My primary phone is the iPhone,” the Woz said. “I love the beauty of it. But I wish it did all the things my Android does, I really do.”

Wozniak’s main concern was regarding the virtual assistant ‘Siri’ that has been the major selling point of the smartphone. As much as it is attractive for public to go for the tweaked iPhone 4, it performs woefully in some features.

Woz said when he asked Siri to show him results for the famous lakes in California, it returned the query with the famous real estate that had ‘Lake’ included in their names.

Moreover, when he asked Siri to show him the prime numbers above 87, it returned with results of Prime Ribs and some more real estate. According to Wozniak, Apple still needs to do more work to further furnish the assistant.
