You don't have an Android phone.

I think most people are aware of this but I feel the need to get it out there because of the misinformation and bad comparisons I keep reading. You don't have an Android phone. Android is an operating system that can be installed on any device with compatible hardware, not a type of phone. I don't see people with iPhones calling their phones iOS phones. That would be kind of silly.

The reason I mention this is because there are so many phones that utilize Android that questions about hardware and comparisons to Apple products done in this matter are all useless and result in junk data. People try to categorize them all as Android phones vs iPhones. People that categorically compare their iPhone to every make and model of phone that uses Android are being ridiculous and don't even realize it.

It is the same as the people that said they had a "Microsoft Computer" in the 1980's and 1990's because they were using MS-DOS or Windows on it. They didn't have one, there was no such thing on the market at the time. Microsoft with very few exceptions was strictly a software company. It was difficult to answer questions because there were so many existing chip-sets and configurations on the market, but these folks couldn't even tell you the brand name. They just said "Microsoft". Flash forward to present day when Microsoft actually does sell hardware like the Surface and the Lumia I don't ever hear the annoying phrase "Microsoft Computer" anymore.
