Hi guys, I read everywhere that according to a lot of people Android with the One UI is the best operating system for phones on the planet and is infinitely better than iOS for countless reasons. I ask a question to those who have full knowledge of the facts because they use the two systems (iOS 17 & One UI 6) on a daily basis, thus knowing them in the smallest detail of real use: why is the One UI indisputably superior to the iPhone, which therefore does not have a shred of sense compared to Galaxy? What are the real-world details that make the iPhone a significantly poorer product than the Galaxy? Thanks to those who will want to answer!

    Some pros - pull down interfaces, which are honestly genius, I wish they were more widely adopted by other apps. Zoom out on double tap for easy one handed operation. Easily reachable and system wide back button (instead of per app back button located at the top left). All of that amazing for one handed use.

    Multi window, split screen and other viewer shenanigans - rarely needed, but sometimes feel truly amazing to have.

    Operating camera with physical buttons (not sure, maybe iPhone also can do this now). Very handy for opening camera, taking picture and closing camera all without literally moving a finger, on the move, in the outstretched hand etc.

    Sane keyboard with numbers and special symbols visible.

    Probably many other small things we just take for granted on droids.

      The camera shutter can be activated using either volume button on iPhone. And 3rd party keyboards are supported, so you can install Gboard, SwiftKey, or others.
