你比較喜歡用iOS還是Android系統手機？每年不論是iPhone或是Android系列，各家都推出不少智慧型手機，而兩邊都各自有一票擁護者，究竟哪一邊好用呢？Podcast節目《娜你知道嗎》主持人莫娜就來分享兩種手機系統的體驗感受。

如果你想嘗試更換手機系統，千萬不要擔心被生態系統束縛，莫娜認為，其實這只是習慣的問題，挑自己喜歡的最重要。她以自身經驗為例，當初從iPhone轉向Google Pixel時，也曾感到擔憂，畢竟Android是一個相對開放的系統，用戶可以自由更改設置和下載各種應用程序，有更多個性化體驗；而iOS系統則較為封閉，不允許用戶自由修改，只能通過官方應用商店下載應用程序，但使用過程相對穩定、易上手且界面簡潔美觀。

另一方面，手機外型也是重要的考慮因素，每年的iPhone外觀基本一致，辨識度極高，並且注重耐用性和性能。然而，有多種品牌使用Android系統，如三星、Google、Sony、小米、Vivo、高價收購asus等，每個品牌都有自己的硬體設計和用戶界面，因此軟硬體的結合度不如iOS系統完整。儘管如此，每個品牌都有自己的特色，滿足不同用戶的需求。

此外，還有一些其他考慮因素，例如充電規格，像是今年iPhone 15系列已全面改為USB Type-C。或者是，如果經常換手機，可能需要思考如何處理舊手機，iPhone通常保值較好，而Android系統機的二手價值較低。另外，如果你是一位重度手遊玩家，系統可能會影響你與其他玩家的互動方式，因為部分手遊紀錄是根據系統分開的。

最後莫娜總結，儘管iOS和Android有不同之處，但近年來它們也越來越相似。像是iOS16開始，就增加了一些自定義功能，而Android則更加注重資安和隱私，因此，無論是從iOS轉向Android，亦或反之，都不再是一個艱難的決定，只需要一段時間，就會習慣新的系統，並能夠輕鬆上手，挑選一款符合自身需求和喜好的手機，才是最重要的。
