Android or IOS? | Which is the best


Mobile phones now have a wide range of usage in life, not just for calling or texting, you can do various type of jobs with your phone.
There are 2 popular operating systems for phone, one of them is android and the other one is IOS, IOS is used in Apple devices while android isn't just limited with one company. Samsung, Huawei, HTC, Motorola, etc. All of them use an android operating system powered by GOOGLE.
If you want Super security, use IOS, IOS is very secure and limited, so you can't do what you want with them. For example, Bluetooth in IOS can only connect with other IOS systems, you can't download anything you want on the web or other applications, only authorized apps and website are eligible for download.
This makes IOS so secure against malware, virus, spyware etc. You won't have any system failure or apps with a bad codes.
Android is an open source operating system, means you can easily change your device codes, or run ANY app in your device. Downloading content isn't limited. You can easily edit, download, run, install any application or other content in device.
This makes android devices ready for a destination for malware and spyware or even viruses in the other words your system is exposed for anything. No matter good or bad.
Usually editors or creative a creative person buy's an android device, but a person with important file's or the one's that want their file's and identity to be safe, use an IOS operating system, that is why usually celebrity's use IOS devices.

Tablet's?

Tablets are an electronic device with a big touch screen. They are usually an android device and made by electronic company's like Samsung, Sony, Apple, Huawei, HTC, etc.
their big size make's them difficult to move around but they are really useful because of their service, so we don't recommend it to you if you want to have something small and easy to transport.
Currently Samsung has the most sell of tablet's, models like Tab 4, Tab 3,Tab 2,Tab E but apple also has a good sell though.
Buying a tablet is good for these usage's:

  • Playing games.
  • Using it in conferences.
  • Presenting something.
  • Online searches.
  • Office works.
  • Create or present power point, word, excel etc. (For creating I recommend laptops
  • Watching movies
  • Less battery usage.
They have also some disadvantages:
  •  they are not suitable for calling.
  • they have a high risk to break.
  •  They usually don't have good cameras
Which model to buy:
As I said before Samsung is really popular between the users, how ever an Ipad is also a good choice.

Difference between normal and SSD hard disks


Normal hard disks use a disk to store data, like the CD, the disk moves in circles and the header finds the place of the folder on the disk and then reads the data that is stored, and simply shows them on the PC.
SSD hard disks are more like to RAM but they are not temporary they use chips to store data, which increases the speed of the data transfer much more than normal hard disks.

Learn to buy PC


  • CPU:
CPU stands for "Central processing unit" or in other words the laptops "Brain". This part is one of the most expensive parts and the most important one, it does all calculation for your PC. The most common company is Intel, which is the best and the cheapest in CPU's. the speed of the CPU is counted by giga hertz. the bigger the GHz number the fastest the CPU is. This is a list of best CPU's from the slow to the fastest:

  1. Atom, Celeron, Pentium 4 etc.
  2. i3 
  3. i5
  4. i7
each CPU has a generation, the higher the generation the fastest the CPU is.


  • RAM:
RAM stands for "Random access memory", this memory is used to temporary import the hard disk files into the RAM, because hard disk is slow to run the files or application the files are moved to RAM on startup then they are used & edited inside the RAM, this why we see "loading..." when opening an app, the PC moves them to the RAM, for fast access. RAMs have many shapes and sizes the higher the capacity, the faster your PC.
NOTE: using 2 different RAM capacity's will make problems for your PC, if you buy a 2 GB RAM and your PC has 2 RAM inputs, buy the other one also 2 GB, difference in capacity's means difference in speeds, this will make your PC slow.



  • Hard disk and screen's: 

This is based on your usage and your needs, if you only need 1TB capacity and you buy a 2TB PC, it won't just cost you more, but make's your PC heavier. so measure your needs before purchase.
Screen is also based on your needs, for gaming usually big screens are recommended, try to buy the screen that fit's you and won't makes your PC heavy.
