lot of pictures and videos.- Some androids have the ability to add more storage through microsd
expansion, some even support up to 128Gb expansion!- With the cloud becoming more common, some services such as Google
Drive and iCloud can save some space by uploading pictures and videos to there.

second display that can show notifications, to a curved screen.- With more variety of phones, androids tend to have more features, but

listening to music, being on a call, and taking pictures.- mAh is the amount of power a battery can hold.- Over time, phone batteries tend to deteriorate, and with some phones
batteries are replaceable.- If the battery is not replaceable, there isn’t much you can do about the
battery going bad.
