Apple is separating the new smartphones into its usual low-cost versus high-cost categories, with big differences between the two models coming down to the camera, display, and battery life.

Apple Seeds Second Beta of iOS 10.3.2 to Developers
Apple today seeded the second beta of an upcoming iOS 10.3.2 update to developers, nearly two weeks after seeding the first iOS 10.3.2 beta and two weeks after introducing iOS 10.3, which included features like a new Find My AirPods feature and Apple File System. Apple has also released a minor iOS 10.3.1 update, which focused on security improvements.
Registered developers can download the second iOS 10.3.2 beta from the Apple Developer Center or over-the-air with the proper configuration profile installed.
We don't yet know what features or improvements are coming in iOS 10.3.2 as Apple doesn't offer detailed release notes and nothing notable was discovered in the first iOS 10.3.2 update.
As a minor 10.x.x update, we can expect iOS 10.3.2 to offer bug fixes and performance improvements rather than outward-facing features. Apple has said that the update fixes SiriKit car commands, which should be working as expected.
If we find anything new in the second iOS 10.3.2 beta, we'll update this post.

You can't compare that way. A lot of the phone is not tied into the base OS but updated far more regularly as part of Google Play Services. For example, Google can update Maps by pushing a new version of Play Services without having to update the whole OS and usually without the end user noticing. Browser components are also in there as well as anything non-open source. This is far more efficient and responsive than Apple's monolithic updates, where we wait a whole year to get some simple feature added in Books or Maps.
Yes I can, the person I replied to said there are more people on the latest Android than there are people using iOS, this is False and I provided an image and a link to prove it's false.

You forget that there are already more android users around with the latest version available than there are iOS users. Google is hard working to solve the fragmentation issues on Android and over the air updates. Once they've solved that issue, there is even less reason to buy iPhone. Somehow the evolution seems to go so much faster on Android than on iOS. I really hope Apple will turn the table but it has proven not to for at least four years.
Link please, cause it's been said before that only a tiny fraction is on the latest Android.
Update: Google's Android Nougat update is being used on 5% of active devices as of April, and the five-month-old software is in the offing for other handsets. Here's the latest list.

Landscape iMessage bug is still not fixed on an iPhone 7+ grrrr
*start typing a message in iMessage portrait
* turn the device
* handwriting pops up instead of turning iMessage.
I received as a response that there was a workaround so the bug is no priority.
One of the most aggravating bugs in iOS as I encounter it 20 times a day, :mad:

It would be nice if they'd fix the 'bug' that plagues us blind people using voiceover. When it's reading an article, if it gets interrupted by a notification it starts the article again from the beginning. There should either be a way of quickly turning on and off notifications or it should resume from the same point.

Can anyone share the wallpaper used in the news article?
I WANT IT TOO!
I have it but it's 13 MB zipped, to big to share here.

Are Android users jealous of the frequency of iOS updates, and how new iOS versions work with pretty much all currently available iOS devices..?

I both love and hate the frequency of the updates. Great to have the latest security fixes, but every update wipes out the music functions last played list. Since I listen to play lists in random setting, after each upgrade you have to reselect a play list so you get to select random again. Wouldn't it be wonderful if Apple would save the state of your music/playlist setting so you could continue from where it left off. Sorry, just a pet peeve I had to rant about.
