Eric Schmidt, chairman of the board of Google and former member of the board of directors of Apple, wrote on his own profile on Google+ instructions for switching from iPhone to Android:
Many of my friends with iPhones are switching to Android. The latest high-end phones from Samsung (Galaxy S4), Motorola (Verizon Droid Ultra) and even the Nexus 5 have better displays, are faster and have much more intuitive interfaces. They make a great Christmas gift for iPhone users.
Lately, Schmidt likes to comment on the competition. The last time this happened, he was booed by the audience when he claimed that Android was more secure than the iPhone. While Schmidt's guide is useful for those actually switching from iPhone to Android, the first paragraph of the post is misleading and Schmidt could have been forgiven, if only to his credit.
Better displays in the form of OLED technology are debatable to say the least, however IPS LCD is generally considered to be superior to OLED as it has better viewing angles and more faithful color reproduction, although OLED has better black reproduction. The mentioned phones are definitely not faster, all of them benchmarks speaks in favor of the iPhone 5s, despite the fact that many manufacturers in benchmarks he cheats. And the intuitiveness of the environment? iOS is generally known for its intuitive UI, while Android is very unintuitive for many, although much has improved with successive updates.
However, Eric Schmidt's statements should be seen as everyone is kicking for his team, he is kicking for Google. He might commit some unnecessary fouls, but the iPhone is clearly around his neck so much that it's worth it.
However, Schmidt's post doesn't rule out the possibility that many are actually abandoning the iPhone and switching to Android. If you are undergoing such a transition, then it might just be instruction chairman of the board of Google very useful. In it, Schmidt describes how to transfer your contacts, photos and music from iOS to Android. And also, at the end, he adds that you should use Google's Chrome browser, not Apple's Safari. Surprisingly.
A fake Jony Ive has also already responded to Schmidt's Google+ post on Twitter. However, his guide for switching from iPhone to Android is noticeably shorter. Judge for yourself:
How to switch from iPhone to fucking Android:
Step 1: Don't.

Schmidt should stop the meds. They are obviously not doing him any good.
Or, on the contrary, he should start taking some medicine :-). I use an iPhone5 as my main phone and I use a Sony with Android for the second (private) number out of necessity. And there is no question of intuitiveness. At least not like iOS.
:DDDDDDDDDDD!!!!! Well, until the end of the year, I have taken care of the party, grandpa got upset that he was fired, so he's trying it :DDDDDDDDDDDD !!!!
That's fine, but according to the son's description, during the transfer of contacts, the photos in my contacts disappear, user-defined fields with Czech characters are not transferred, as well as family ties to contacts in the family. So such a partially broken guide speaks volumes about the knowledge of this expert.

If someone gave me an Android phone for Christmas and God forbid a Samsung, I would send it somewhere.
yes, we are the same way. Those paddles from Samsung or HTC are terribly unergonomic. Not to mention the system. I had an HTC with Android before the 5S and it's like going from a Trabant to a Ferrari.
:))) I don't know, I have one Android at home and nothing much. I complained about the Samsung Note 2 for more than half a year and I had better pack it up. They didn't recognize the defect, they said I caused it myself. Phone for 15 thousand With a defect like a pig.
So clear…. well, wouldn't iOS be intuitive if it can't do anything... Getting an iPhone 5 was a gift from Denmark.... golden good htc with android :(
I can't help but react. One would think that a guy of the rank of Smitda would not need to declare such nonsense. Android has almost 80% of everything, so what?. Well, simply to the fact that Apple is number one in the top smartphones and just like that someone doesn't care.
I think that even this German friend likes them.
Apple is the most valuable company in the world, where it even surpassed Exxon!!!!
Do we realize what we are talking about? And Mr. Smitd is very well aware of this. Maybe that's why the commotion.
that Mr. Schmidt can advise himself and his family as much as he wants, but he should stop swearing or drinking, it's not good for him, let Google give advice on their famous Android as soon as possible, and then let them do something about intuitiveness, it's a bigger mess in a system like Android I've never seen it. When a person finds something, you need a manual, especially a lot of junk that I don't even know what it's for, but the main thing is that it's there, even if I ask an advanced user what it's for, he says I don't know, I've never used it :-D and The problem is that it can't even be uninstalled at all, so the uselessness of Kora takes up the phone's memory unnecessarily, and as for the intuitiveness of Android, I don't think there's any need to comment, everyone knows their own thing about it, I call it a mess, Google could have given advice over the years
Android for nothing. Yesterday I had to (try to) set something up on the Note II and it was a pain. Besides, I didn't even know how to catch it. :-) Before I bought the 5S, I was seriously thinking about the Lumia 1020. WP is the only system I really like besides iOS.
the only thing that annoys me about Apple is that they don't make iPhones with dual sim. The thought of having a personal iPhone and a second work Android phone makes my hair stand on end.
After I uploaded ios7, I find that I completely stop using my iPhone. I have the same thing with the last Apple devices. Hell, after more than ten years of fandom, it somehow left me... This year I wanted to buy a new ipad mini and mac mini, but it passed me by. I'm not saying that the latter is better, I don't see, I don't know. But at least iphone and ios don't suit me anymore.
It's quite similar to me, in general, when I want to use anything quickly in iOS7 - for example on the street, with slightly frozen hands, I feel a lot of "clumsiness". Everything is easy. Of course, the fault could also be mine, but I never had such problems before.
ideal
is to have both iOS and Android, because both systems have their great advantages
barriers and, in my opinion, complement each other perfectly. I solved it
