4 things I hate about Android smartphones

Android smartphones are no doubt the King in today’s mobile industry with remarkable shares in the global markets, far ahead of iOS, Windows and other OS. Popular as they are, there are still certain things that Android users hate about this

1. Freezing/Force Close

I bet each and every Android user out there know this feel and hate it lots. Mnay Android smartphones decrease their performance remarkably after months of usage ( or a year if you buy a very good machine). When the performance is no longer at its peak, Android easily gets constant freezing, which leads to the experience of “Force Close”

This means whenever an app freezes or refuses to respond, Android users have to choose the action “force close” to end the it, otherwise you would be hanging and waiting for like forever. Unfortunately, this is not at all a rare incident. Some tech reviewer even joked that, Android OS feels like a smartphone version of Windows Vista: always freezing, always crashing.

2. Fragmentation

However, freezing is not the most annoying problem people find in an Android smartphone. If we make a user poll, the highest votes for most serious problem on Android would be “nominated” to the fragmentation. This happens because most Android apps always require OS upgrade. So if you fancy downloading new apps, or conituning a good one, you have to either sacrifice free memory to get the newest OS update, or buy a new phone. Many users even suspect this is the trick Android producers make to intrigue people into buying more. Do you ever got the same nuiance with your mobile?

3. Short (but not sharp) battery Life

This is a never ending debates every mobile user has. And Android is by far the most notorious for their battery lifespan. Don’t laugh at iPhone 7 when you heard that they only pack a 1960 mAH battery because maybe such capacity would work longer hours than your 3,000 mAH cell on Android smartphone. And if you are an Android user, you know that constant pain: always having to worry whether you turned on power saving mode, is your screen brightness low enough, or do you have the extra power bank with you.

4. Not strong enough hardware

We once brought up the debate whether an iOS phone and an Android phone can be compared basing merely on their spec figures. And the answer is a big, fat No. Talking about GHz speed processors, Android smartphones seem to actually stay behind the specs number they carry. For example, the standard for most Android mobiles nowadays is a 1 GHz processor, but they perform as if they actually are 528MHz. One typical example for this case is countless comparison between latest iPhone VS Android mobiles we find over the internet. Though the iPhone usually features weaker hardware (by number), their machines tend to run stronger and much more smoothly.

On closing note, although there are bunches of reasons why we love (and still using) Android smartphones, it is unavoidable to say that there are certain things we get really annoyed at.
