Which OS is better windows phone 8 or android?

Question

I don't care how many apps they have all i care about is better user experience and good apps for learning(like about space etc)

Answer 1

android

Android is an open type of system that is generally a Linux based platform, and the 4.1 and 4.2 Jelly Bean versions are no exception. One of the biggest advantages this Android version has going for it, and that Android in general holds, is that it is extremely and very easily customizable. Each smartphone that runs on the operating system comes with a specific user interface that is generally easy to use and allows you to customize the look of your device with a variety of skins or themes, wallpapers and the ability to create widgets based on the apps you have on your phone.

Answer 2

Windows Phone 8.

By far the better user experience on the device as it comes out of the box. Enter your LiveID or similar, and all your on-line world is connected for you. Office, OneNote, OneDrive, Facebook, all the capabilities you need without downloading new apps.

A modern live-tile interface, so the information you want is there for you as soon as the phone turns on (or on the blank glance screen before it lights up if you wish).

And its secure, rather than plagued by malware as the open Android apps store approach seems to be.

Answer 3

Android

Answer 4

Android was developed for phones whereas Win 8 was chopped down from true windows as a cluggie to work on phones. I would go with Android that was intended for phone use.

Answer 5

Using windows won't give you a smartphone experience but android does.

Answer 6

For apps that require or have in built support for terminal/scripting Android or Ubuntu Phone.



I rock all my space (galaxy, universe sims etc) on my much more powerful Xeon (12core x 4) rig though wouldn't be surprised if the Motorola Droid / Galaxy S4 could simulate our solar system including a low density asteroid belt and extra solar systems (at much lower estimate aggregate level) in the milky way as far as incoming projectiles are concerned.



Pretty god damn sweet for a phone though I hate it too because of laxing market share in desktop / personal server rig computers.



I've heard of people accessing native terminal on their Galaxy S2/S3 phones though have only used it in an app as emulation that allows root access (if phone is rooted).



For general usage / noob pursuits I find Windows 8 embedded more intuitive for basic UI than Android (or Jellybean GUI).



Apart from mentioning Apple iOS in my 'won't mention them' discalimer, too retard inducing. I had an iPhone 2+3 and it was TOO EASY to the point I got lazy and preferred the 'Google' approach rather than revisiting and practicing my skills.



Windows 8 tries to beat iOS on this though has certain redeeming features like more compatible File Systems on external media than Apple, better app & setting layout etc.



Have Win8+8.1 U-P-G-R-A-Y-E-D-D on 1 of my gaming rigs, love it, hate metro, use desktop.



Though when coming to phone/tablet rooting and advanced back end/command line interface I will always recommend Android (or Ubuntu/Solaris x86 Embedded for applicable compatible models).



Windows CE/XP are also good though (no new roll outs, end support XPemb 2016) programs are often much more aged (WinCE dead) and often not ported if recent to Win7 or 8 embedded.



Sorry if I rambled on/ not prime cuts to chase though feeling passionate about my NEW!!! 20x Raspberry Pi B server.

Answer 7

The best os among them is a ANDROID. But IOS is the best os which i like.
