It is now common for smartphone makers to mimic applications or features created by competing companies. Apple is not far behind. Recently The new iPhone 6S And IPad Pro Lots of it Feature Users have complained that these features have been created in imitation of Android.
Let’s take a look at the details of these “duplicate” features of Apple
Animated Wallpapers: The animated wallpaper that Apple has brought to their new smart device is basically nothing more than the live wallpaper of Android.
Live Photo: Apple claims that they have come up with a new animated photo shoot. This type of imaging method was developed by HTC for their device many years ago. This feature is also present in Samsung Galaxy phones.
More Megapixels Android cameras always have more megapixels. But Apple’s phones have less megapixels, but the picture quality is better than other phone cameras. So Apple has come up with the first 12-megapixel rear camera and 5-megapixel front camera. Everyone thinks that they have imitated Android in this too. However, it is better not to consider megapixel growth as an “imitation”.
Front The camera For Flash: Very few phones in the market have this facility. The iPhone 8S doesn’t have a real front flash, but its retina display automatically gets brighter when taking selfies. Apple can thank them for borrowing this strategy from Snapchat.
4K Video Image courtesy The feature of Apple’s new phone is that it can record video in 4K resolution. This feature has been around for a long time on Android devices. Of course, everyone will want to maintain a position in the market with better facilities. So Apple should be thanked for allowing Four to capture video – not the “imitation” tag.
Stylus: The iPad Pro has a new stylus called “Apple Pencil”. This technology was developed by Microsoft for their Surface tablet long ago.
