Motion – THBT iOS phones are better than Android.

Proposition –
The proposition is required to justify why iOS is better and safer than android
as a whole, due to its closed source software program, which makes hacking an
iPhone literally impossible. The high price is a key area that needs to be
justified by the proposition. A point that can act as a base for further research
is that the budget iPhone’s cameras though lacking in pixels, is notably
superior to phones in the same price range.

Opposition –
The opposition is required to question the vast profit margins of apple; apple
of 20 percent of the US market, but is responsible for two-thirds of the profits.
In terms of performance, certain smartphones over- perform iPhones
significantly for a much lesser price. Food for thought - An increasing number
of iPhones components, including image sensors are those manufactured from
Sony.
