It does matter what you do, some people won't just accepted

Out of box...conducting speed tests between iOS and Android is a bit skewed depending on the tester. Lets see the S8 run with 0 background apps going vs the 6s....Guarantee u 6s will lose. Android boots up with a ton of background apps running at startup. Similar to windows start up vs Mac (Unix); Im sure an Apple fan boy conducting a speed test like this would have some technical bias. Especially if they just boot both phones up...then conduct the test. Just saying there is too many variables within android to conduct an unbiased speed comparison vs iOS (a 6s vs S8 stock boot in this scenario). An Octa core vs a dual core....Pfft please....Doesn't make sense.

If you don't know this guy just don't talk! He has been doing this for a while and he is an android user, he uses the google Pixel and now the Galaxy S8, just look it up in YouTube, you have to accept that iPhones are better optimized and that's it, Android phones have more features in them but when it comes to being a reliable phone, the iPhone is king

ok......go ahead and zip a couple documents up and send me an email on your iPhone....oh wait you cant zip files and send over email on iphone like Android....your right...iphone is much more optimized....you got me on that one....

Don't you know iOS can install 3rd party apps? Yes, we can. I've installed iZip tree years ago just for doing what you mention (Zipping and Unzipping files to/from email), but I never use it more than once an year, even on a work basis. I guess mailboxes are large enough today that almost nobody needs to compress their docs before sending.

The Dude. There is a legit Winzip app in the iPhone and iPad. The real 'Winzip app'.
