Speakers’ names

Speaker’s position (Affirmative/Negative)

Greeting and Introduction
Good morning president, opposition and audience.

In this case, I am here to present both the positive and negative parts of these two great
digital opponents.

The topic of today's debate is IOS vs Android

Outline your team's case:
a) Your points:
I will be talking about why the IOS system is better

 IOS has Greater security

 ICloud sync

 Exclusive App

b) Second speaker's points:

I'll be talking about why the Android system is better

 Android is open source

 Wide variety of free apps

 Multitasking system

Your First Point

State your argument:

 My first point is IOS has Greater security

 What's the information that supports your argument?

IOS is a very closed ecosystem, so the chances of being attacked are low. Plus, Apple can
fix security flaws much faster than any other system. It also works with 4 control
interfaces for security management, these are: KPI (Kernel Service Entry Point) of the
kernel services to the framework, The API of the user commands independent of the
policy to the framework, KPI (Kernel Service Entry Point) between the framework and
the access control policy modules and Additional debugging and monitoring interface
through DTrace probes (not contemplated in this illustration) that is complemented with
the use of Secure Enclave, which is a secure coprocessor that includes a hardware-based
key manager that is isolated from the main processor to provide an additional layer of
security.

Your Second Point

State your argument:

 My second point is ICloud sync

 What's the information that supports your argument?

ICloud is designed specifically for users of Apple devices and is synchronized with the
programs developed by this company. This causes the platform's web interface to change
depending on whether or not your Apple ID is connected to any device developed by
them, such as an iPad or an iPhone. So it is an Apple cloud storage service that keeps
photos, files, notes and other content always up-to-date and available anytime,
anywhere. We could say, therefore, that it is the equivalent of Google Drive, but unlike it,
it does not have an app for Android.

Your Third Point

State your argument:

 My third point is Exclusive App

 What's the information that supports your argument?

Although most developers focus from the beginning on launching their applications for
both operating systems, there are still a good handful of Apps that are exclusive to IOS
and that cannot be found for Android, below I will name them and indicate the
specifications of house one of them:

TIMEPAGE: It is one of the most recognized and awarded calendar manager applications.
It offers a wide range of options to organize our day to day and pending tasks. It is also
compatible with all types of services such as iCloud, Google, Outlook, Exchange,
Facebook, Yahoo and CalDAV.

TWEETBOT: It is one of the best Twitter clients available exclusively for iOS and Mac. Its
interface allows an impeccable management of this social network, and it is highly valued
by many CMs who use it professionally.

APOLLO: This photo editing application is the only one that allows you to add light
sources in real time to a previously taken image. The App makes a 3D mapping in the
photo to allow to vary the options of color, intensity or lighting in a realistic way.

HYPERLAPSE FOR INSTAGRAM: This exclusive App for iPhone allows you to create
incredible videos with a “timelapse” effect. For this, it uses the internal stabilization of
Instagram to avoid using tripods or tools. It allows you to accelerate a video up to 12
times its speed and share the results easily.

HALIDE: It is one of the best camera Apps for iPhone and one of the most awarded and
praised by the press. It has a set of professional tools and a very simple interface to be
able to get the best photos (with patience). Users who handle this App fluently achieve
surprising results.
Closing statement
Chairperson, opposition and members of the audience, in conclusion...

FEW CUSTOMIZATION OPTIONS: The interfaces of the iOS operating system are
usually very similar, which is also reflected in the customization options that the user has.
Although one of the advantages of iOS 14 is the introduction of greater support for
widgets on the home screen, these come with default sizes. In contrast, customization is
one of the advantages of Android that you can find in any version and model. You can
configure your own and third-party applications as shortcuts, add widgets, and even
change the entire user interface. Also, in terms of creating applications, obviously there is
no such freedom as in the Android operating system. In this way, if you want to create an
application on iOS, you must have permission from the company.

HIGH PRICE: The price factor is a constant on iOS devices. This can be explained if you
take into account all the advantages of iOS that we mentioned above. In addition, last
year it was announced that the latest models will no longer have a charger, which
generates an extra expense that is not exactly cheap. Therefore, one of the main
disadvantages of using iPhone is in the budget that you have to have.

LOW BATTERY PERFORMANCE: Although the battery in the latest models of devices
with the iOS operating system is quite good, its performance is decreasing with the older
models of the famous bitten apple. This causes the battery to last less over the years,
which forces you to be renewing the battery; if you don't decide to buy a newer model.
Over time, this could become a disadvantage of using iPhone.

EXTERNAL STORAGE: iOS devices do not have the facility to accept external storage
such as a micro SD card, which is a very common output in the Android operating system.
In fact, they do this because by not being able to extract the memory of the device, they
guarantee the security and privacy of your information. The alternative, then, is to save
everything to your phone's internal memory or to buy more storage space in iCloud. This
involves more expenses, which is why it is a disadvantage of using iPhone. Therefore,
when comparing Android vs iOS, the external storage factor is won by Android mobile
phones.

APPLE MAPS: Compared to all the information available on Google Maps, the navigation
application of the iOS operating system can be a bit short. Although it also allows offline
use, obtain traffic estimates and find directions for transport routes, Google Maps is more
detailed (not forgetting its extensive review system). Few customization options. The
interfaces of the iOS operating system are usually very similar, which is also reflected in
the customization options that the user has. Although one of the advantages of iOS 14 is
the introduction of greater support for widgets on the home screen, these come with
default sizes.

the advantages of having Android is that there will always be a model available in
whatever price range you are looking for.

Second speaker guide

Speaker’s position (Affirmative/Negative)

Expressing disagreement with first speaker’s arguments

I disagree on …. because ….

Why do you disagree with first speaker’s points?

Briefly State the Points You Will Make

Today I will be talking to you about:

 Android is open source

 Multitasking system

 Good battery performance

Your First Point

State your argument:

 My first point is Android is open source

 What's is the information that supports your argument?

The main difference between Android and iOS is their code system. Being created on
Linux, Android's open source, also known as open source, allows anyone to access the
source code and modify this Google software. This is key if you are looking for the
advantages of Android vs iOS to develop applications.

Through the Integrated Development Environment (IDE), you can work on the code with
total freedom. The official Android IDE is Android Studio. By the way, in the online
course Create Android applications with Java you will learn about the advantages of
Android Studio and how to use it.

In addition, the open source Android operating system is usually cheaper and durable
compared to other closed source software, such as iOS. This is because its development
is not capitalized only for an author or company, but the software belongs to the
community.

Your Second Point

State your argument:

 My second point is Multitasking system

 What's the information that supports your argument?

If you are a fan of productivity, you will like this Android advantage. If you do not already
have an Android device, we tell you that this mobile operating system allows you to open
several applications at the same time.

Also, depending on the application and the cell phone model, you can put the
applications in sleep mode if you are no longer using them. This is one of the advantages
of using Android that saves memory and battery.

Your Third Point

State your argument:

 My third point is Good battery performance

 What's the information that supports your argument?

Battery is another important factor when buying a smartphone. Although it can be a bit
tricky to compare Android vs iOS operating system in this regard, as they don't have
hardware in common, upper-middle-range Android phones generally have good battery
life and fast charging.

Both Android and iOS allow you to monitor battery use and have power saving modes.
However, Android shows you an estimate of the battery you have left and, at the same
time, many of the cell phone manufacturers with this mobile operating system offer fast
charging and wireless charging, something that with Apple you can only enjoy from the
iPhone X.

So if this is an item that aligns with your needs, Android mobile phones stand out with
the best battery performance on the market. Obviously, in the Android vs. iOS war,
Android wins in this area.

Closing statement
Chairman, opposition and members of the audience, in conclusion...

LOW APP QUALITY: Let's say Android's versatility is double-edged. As there are not so
many restrictions when creating an application for the Play Store, it is possible to find
poor quality applications in the store of an Android smartphone; it can even be a fraud or
virus. Given this disadvantage of the Android operating system, QA specialists have to
spend more time thoroughly testing the performance of applications on all Android
phone models.

HIGHER RISK OF VULNERABILITY: By having an open source, Android mobile phones

are more susceptible to being hacked or, due to flaws in the mobile operating system,
hackers are more likely to violate our privacy.

COMPLEXITY IN ADVANCED CONFIGURATION: Some Android models require that

their users have more knowledge of the software so that they do not choose a wrong
configuration of the device. Those who are inexperienced can damage the system by
choosing an option that they do not know what it means.

POSSIBLE SYNCHRONIZATION PROBLEMS: Some Android smartphone users may

notice that, when it comes to syncing files in the cloud, such as images or videos, they
have quite a few obstacles. This is a disadvantage of the Android operating system that
you could solve with a good configuration. This will depend on the manufacturer of the
cell phone, but you may lose your files if you do not check that the Google Drive
synchronization works correctly and your smartphone is damaged or lost.

EXCLUSIVE APPLICATION AVAILABILITY: If you are always aware of the latest app
launches, you may have realized that one of the advantages of iOS is that it represents a
platform where new applications appear first.

In the case of mobile games, the best titles continue to arrive first on iOS and, the truth,
some developers do not create versions for Android. However, one of the advantages of
using Android is that the Play Store has a greater number of applications (2.7 million
compared to 2.2 million for iOS) and a higher percentage of free applications, such as
these Google games.
