Fact : The Reason Android sells its because the Phones sell for 19 euros!

I wonder why my family phones take 5 seconds or more to load pages and the UI is horrible.

Android is poor man iOS.

It seems a bit unfair to blame Android for your family being so poor or stupid to buy extremely cheap smartphones and then expect them to have the same processing power as top-notch devices. If your family can only afford 19 Euro smartphones, be glad they're even able to buy a smartphone that will still do almost anything a several hundred Euros device can, just slow as hell.

On topic: Android not being the most popular choice in enterprise environments seems plausible to me. Android's key to success in the consumer market is offering the best value for money, being an open system where the user has far-reaching control over his device, and customers being able to choose between hundreds of models. In enterprise environments however, that's not important, it's even rather disadvantages.

Lol my family just doesnt care about Phones they just want them to call and texting nothing else.

Still Android sucks big time, if you want to be good you need to be good in all devices, i got a Lumia 710 wich was 199e and it flawless, fast and responsive.

Its just like football, how can Messi be the best in the World if he only plays on Barcelona ?? Ronaldo prove themself in many more teams.

Android is only good in some phones, thats why its a bad OS and iOS is miles miles miles ahead of it.

Also Apple trumphs google in every single department, well except search.

Its not a matter of poor or rich, its a matter that the OS is only good in some phones, Android is a giant LOL 

I have friends with IPhone 5, miles ahead of any Android device. I feel bad for Android users they will never get a flawless Experience like Iphone, ever.


I don't understand your point at all ...

You're claim is something similar to saying that "Since Windows runs poorly on a $250 netbook, and Mac OS runs really well on a $2500 Macbook Pro, Windows is a bad operating system while Mac OS is fantastic"

Now, I'm of the opinion that an operating system being able to scale down to low powered hardware is important because 3 years from now the phone I bought today will be low powered compared to the recently released hardware. I haven't seen how Android devices run on newer operating systems, but I have seen what happens to old iPhones when updated to the latest versions of ios and what you get isn't exactly "fast".
