There are a lot of factors that come into play when deciding between Android or iPhone but when it comes to security, Apple’s smartphones take the lead. As an Android user myself, this isn’t the easiest thing to admit but patch gaps continue to seriously hold back the security of the best Android phones.
Unlike with the best iPhones which receive security updates from Apple as soon as they become available, the same can’t be said for most Android phones with the exception of Google’s own Pixel devices. Instead, Android device manufacturers often wait weeks or even months before distributing the search giant’s previously released security updates.
