Smartphones are the most personal devices we own, keeping us connected at all times and acting as the heart of our tech lives. We may not spend much time actually speaking on them these days, but we use a phone for virtually everything else.
Smartphones today typically fall into one of two categories:iPhoneorAndroid. iPhones are the most popular smartphones overall and offer entry into the much covetedAppleexosystem, where they can be paired withAppleWatches, iPads, and MacBooks for greater inter-device connectivity.
