Both have pros and cons, but for the vast majority of users, both are equally good. Please, take the fanboy blinders off and look at it objectively.

If anything, Android with its easy transfer of audio files from a PC to the mobile device is better suited at being a music player than anything based upon iOSĪndroid is not objectively better than iOS.

Android is objectively a better OS than iOS at this point, and security isn’t a real issue if you are gonna use this as an offline music device. Still a useless device, no matter how many times OP is gonna edit his post. But at that point you'd likely be paying $300 for it, and the iPhone SE is $399. I can foresee a lot of carriers having addon "iPod" packages for "cheap" to get people to bring their kids into the network. Apple would need to make a cellular model that takes data like the iPad. And if they're not shit, you can't get replacement parts for them because they're imported, but since we're talking about Apple, you weren't gonna get replacement parts anyways so.Īssuming Apple will put an A12 in here (which is still probably faster than a $200 Android phone despite being released in 2018), A $200 "phone" without the phone doesn't sound too bad. It doesn't matter who it's from, they've all been shit. Every Android phone I've used that wasn't a flagship or a semi-flagship phone (S20 FE) has been absolute garbage. If a kid breaks this phone, or cracks the screen, it won't be too much to replace.Īnd personally, I would not buy an Android phone for under $500.

For the current iPod, you could literally buy two of them for the price of the lowly iPhone SE, let alone the iPhone 12 mini. I think some people brought up the point that a device this cheap could be given to a more careless kid. But it's not like its a dud because at the end of the day with an iPod, you can still use iMessage and Facetime, it's just you can *only* use those services (or any other messaging/VOIP services in the App Store), and you can't use SMS, and you can more easily set restrictions on who you talk to with iMessage and Facetime.īut at the same time, most parents opt for tablets instead of iPods, and since you can buy an iPad for $100 more than this iPod (If you're buying a tablet for a child who's in school, I don't feel bad about using the Education store that gives you a $100 discount on the iPad), it does cut the value proposition a bit. I can see a scenario where a family would want, for instance, a young child to go to school with a device they can use, and one from Apple, but not want them to have a phone number because they don't trust/want them giving it out. Playing music can suck up phone battery and having an ipod that you can use exclusively for music to save battery might be nice for some. As for the phone thing I would sorta agree unless someone wanted the ipod simply for the battery.
#Kanna ios pod how to
Sure it easy once they know how to do it but they would still have to learn before they could do so. It's like asking a child how to do multiplication. First its highly likely they have no idea that is even an option and second they likely would have to research to figure that out. You might think its that easy but someone who isn't tech savvy wouldn't. See i think you are thinking too highly of the average person. Thats really ironic because someone always feels the need to make comments about apple in a lot of android news threads. I don't really see the point in this lossless ipod unless they're already in the apple ecosystem, even then it doesn't make sense if the kid already has a phone. if you already have an android phone for yourself then I guess go for the cheap android route but if you are apart of the Apple ecosystem then I suggest the iPod for the little onesĪll someone would have to do is buy a cheap android phone and just not put a SIM card in it.


You can do that with an android phone but you will have to do it with a third party and you might even have to have a monthly subscription. iPods run iOS which has the whole Family iCloud where the parent can restrict websites apps and even music right from their phone. Yes it is the parents job to help teach them internet safety but the child will still run into stuff like scams. Little ones that are around age 5 don't know how to judge weather something is a scam or a virus. Well chances are that you have but the virus just didn't show itself or maybe you haven't had a virus.

A cheap android phone is insecure and I saw someone say earlier how they've had an android phone their entire life and have never had a virus.
#Kanna ios pod full
Both are easy to use (well it depends on the android skins some are more and less complicated) The point of the iPod is to be an offline device and to be for little ones that are not old enough for a full phone yet.
