So, you\u2019ve decided to take the plunge and switch to Android: great! Before you make the switch, though, it\u2019s important to learn how the two types of devices are different from one another. Unlike with Apple\u2019s iOS, with Android smartphones you have a lot of different devices to choose from. So many unique designs, in fact, that it can feel overwhelming. You\u2019ll also learn new apps, new designs for your favorite social networking apps, new swipe controls, and seemingly endless options for customizing your device.<\/span><\/p>\n

Don\u2019t feel discouraged by the adjustment period, though \u2014 allow yourself the time to get used to your new device. But as soon as you get your new phone, it\u2019s important to properly protect it from malicious software. Because of the inherent freedom in the Android platform \u2014 and greater popularity of Android devices globally \u2014 these phones are more susceptible to malware, so it\u2019s important that you scan your device regularly for viruses.

\nFind the Right Android Smartphone<\/b><\/p>\n

If you\u2019re a diehard Google fan, consider a Pixel or Nexus. These phones are guaranteed to receive the latest software updates first from Google, and currently run Nougat, the latest version of Android OS. The sleek, intuitive devices may also offer a smoother transition from an iPhone than a Samsung or LG phone.<\/span><\/p>\n

If a Pixel or Nexus device interests you, consider also looking into Project Fi, which can dramatically reduce phone bills for users of these phones. Project Fi offers unlimited text and talk (nationally and internationally) for $20\/month, plus 1 GB of data for $10\/month. Other cool features include rollover data and no changes to your phone plan if you travel outside of the US. Not a fan of Google? Consider a powerful Samsung Galaxy S7, S7 Edge, or LG V20.<\/span><\/p>\n
